    Let it be known that vanhalenette and I are opening our home to any Roth Army members for pre and/or post concert partying/hanging out. We live in Centreville right off of 66 and 28 and have plenty of room, and our neighbors are very Van Halen friendly. I have been training them for two years so there will be no problems.

    So let it be written...

          Just a reminder...

          VanHalenette and I have a big house all to ourselves; i.e. no children to tend to. When it comes to entertaining, this is a good thing. We have a spare bedroom with a twin size bed and private bath, and we have another guest bedroom with a queen size bed and private bath. We also have a plenty of floor room downstairs for several of our blow up beds that are quite comfortable. (blow up dolls not included)
          Got a raging fire pit and two car garage where a lot of the partying takes place.
          The D.C. show is 22 miles east of us and is a straight shot into town. One road, and BAM you're in D.C.
          Our home is open to you Rothtards who need a place to crash, party and eat barbecue before during, and after the show.
          If you are in town and need a backup plan/place to chill just PM me and I'll send my phone # and directions to our pad.

          I got ya covered 'cause I LOVE VAN HALEN, bitches!!!!!!!!!

          And now a word about helium..

              Tiki and I are seriously considering this show. After Thursday nights show, we've just gotta see it again to be sure it's for real.

                It takes me about 20 minutes to drive from my house to the Van Halen show on Nov.1: or, I can drive 5 minutes and catch the subway directly to the front entrance of the show.
                Either way, my skinny white ass will be shining that seat in DC only minutes after after I leave home.
                Oh Yeah!

                You all come on up and join the party!
                Got plenty of room.

                And now, a word on frog legs and safety...

                    I got tix. I'm taking the Red Line down from Silver Spring. Taking my accountant. Turns out, he's a big time VH fan. We're leaving the wives at home. This ain't no Bon Jovi show...

                      Nickie, after my experience with Ticketbastard in Charlotte, I'm ready to go myself even though Tiki and I don't have tix yet. I got tix minutes after they went on sale, and found out the hard way that best available was not really best available and sold out is nowhere near truly sold out. I got tix lightyears away from my first ones just two little weeks before showtime. I unloaded those first ones at a HUGE loss that night. There were literally a bazillion others in my boat. They were desperately trying to sell their extras. Even the scalpers doubtfully saw much of a profit. Who cares? I'm nowhere near sayin' I've got tons of disposable cash, but I got to witness history.

                      Tiki and I are already 90% certain we're going to the D.C. show. Nick.....DO NOT MISS THIS!!!

                            No offense. The show is definitely for girls... just not my girl. She doesn't quite get it.

                            But, I love her anyway.

                              Since I am the only one within my circle of friends and family who is going, I purchased the first "best available" seat within my chosen price range that popped up. (I don't care, just get me in the door, man.)
                              My ticket is marked "Side/Rear View" over by Wolfgang. My plan remains to keep that ticket, purchase a second via scalping, Craigslist, etc..
                              in order to get a better seat. Money doesn't grow on trees around here, but this is Van Halen and the nation's capital we're talking about.

                              There will be extra tickets readily available, I'm sure. Perhaps I had better start my search in the morning.

                              Ky-Mani Marley is doing a show at the State Theatre in Falls Church, Virginia this Wednesday evening at 8pm. A close friend of mine is going to be shooting some photos at the show so I think I'll attend with him to check Ky-Mani out. Anyone want to go, PM me.
                              You can see his schedule here http://www.myspace.com/kymanimarley
