Here is interesting things i noted going through the vhlinks posts from people who went to the greensboro show. hope this is cool?
four star people really felt like they got hosed paying 175 bucks for a 87.50 ticket that many people even got cheaper buying them through ebay. i think vh management really screwed people on this deal
many comments on how the sound was too loud, mix really screwed up, sucked, really sounded bad. this is the biggest negative comment i saw from all the posts
t-shirts were $35-55 dollars and there was a nice pullover for $80 and a jacket for $150. Frankenstrat striped beer huggie for $10. Ouch!
<> inside the golden ring is SRO, I paid $475 at the auction to stand all night, that sucked but the view was great
there several comments that EVH was having a good time and reacted positively to the crowd. <$$$> gs I saw your other posts about Ed getting on the road and realizing millions of people still care for him, maybe would help him not booze & drug himself to an early grave. maybe this was a start last night as I don’t want to see the guy die like this? what you think?
also it seemed like the posters that were serious musicians and serious VH fans that had seen VH a number of times said eddie guitar playing was way off and he sounded really rusty. maybe he will get better after a few shows?
this post on EVH was wild
<> I have one more little thing to add...I'm not sure if this was mentioned, but Ed did have a rope around his neck most of the night. I couldn't figure out why?? But, during one of the songs he pulled it up like a noose to hang himself. He did it again towards the end of the concert. It was VERY weird! I think he's losing his mind. Also, towards the beginning I saw Ed throw something to someone in the front row. It looked like they opened it and gave it back to him. He then threw something in his mouth. Then, it was time for him to play his guitar again and the wrapper was stuck to his hand. He waved it around a few times before it finally fell off. Weird! Sammy also ate something during the finale. Took a handful and threw his head back. Viagra? oh,,,, Ed's name was chanted many times, and he did cover his eyes and cry. Somebody said he cried at the dress rehearsal also,,,,,what is going on with is guy!
Responding Post - LOL. I saw that and was wondering what the hell he was doing. It seemed like he could've waited to get backstage...maybe they were breath mints..ROFLOL

<>Eddie's hair looks terrible. Love ya, dude, but let it down! And STOP SMOKING, DUMBASS!! I'll agree that his solo wasn't that great. He played Little Guitars intro, a bit of Eruption, some of Cathedral, and some other crazy stuff. Seemed kinda sloppy to me, though. I'd say he was definitely winging it. It didn't seem canned like on the live album. He was very emotional, as some have mentioned, yeah seemed to cry once!
funny posts on alex
<> Eddie signed one shirt at the very end of the show. Eddie handed his guitar to Alex in order to do so. The look on Alex's face was priceless when the guitar abruptly began to emit glorious rock-guitar feedback. Laughing, Alex handed it back to Eddie with a look on his face that said "Here...make it stop!"
<> Kind of funny at the end when Al,Mike,Ed & Sam were taking
there bows and Al was holding Ed's guitar and accidently hit a cord and a load
scretch cam from the guitar. He didn't no what to do and gave it back to ED (funny!).
<> Al looks like Mr Spock. All he needs is pointy ears. Still rocks, though.
