Only a week away. I kind of regret I won't be going, but then again not!
I don't care much for this type of venue. You either dehydrate yourself and stand for hours to get a good spot or you end up far away. Plus I hate the sun and heat anyway. July sucks ass for me.
On the other hand, I will be in air conditioning 6th row center for another band that I love that tweets everyday, has meet and greets, play shows every year, sound amazing in concert and love their fans and show it every day. Kind of a no brainer for me.
I hope you guys have as much fun as I will and you see a great show even though it will be the same show we've seen dozens of times now.Same ole song and dance...Comment

As much as I respect the both of you and your opinions, this will not dampen my spirits in anyway whatsoever.
I have been looking forward to this for quite awhile now, and I'll be there all 4 days.....for the music...for the people....and for the experience.
There's a strong chance that this will be the very last time Van Halen plays to a crowd of 70,000 people, and I want to be one of them.Last edited by hambon4lif; 07-14-2013, 02:39 AM.Comment

Hambon, I know you'll have a blast. Love it dude. There was a time when I would have joined you. Maybe I should start working to bring that kind of life back into my life. But, I don't think less of you for going. It's going to be fun as hell. I'm just not up for it, and the more I think about how Van Halen, and Roth in particular is only half-assing it, the more I don't want to give them any more of my money. That being said, I'm sure if I lived in the neighborhood, I would attend. I'm not making sense. I'm going to stop now. Have fun Hambon. You rock, brother.Comment

I'm not trying to dampen anyone's spirits at all. I hope all of you going have a blast and it's a great show. I always want VH to do a great show whether I'm there or not!
I'm having some regrets, but still happy with my decision. I'm older than all of you (except Von :D ) and my age came into play in my decision. I don't tolerate things as well as I used to be able to (or maybe just don't want to if I don't have to).
The other concert coming up just pushed me over the edge, otherwise I'm sure I would have given in and I'd be there.Same ole song and dance...Comment

Thanks, but I really didn't mean for that to come off as negative against VH as it did. There is a distinct difference there in regards to their relationship with their fans; but there is also a big age difference, status in history, etc. I mean I wish things were different with VH, but I don't expect it. Old dogs, new tricks, blah blah!Same ole song and dance...Comment

I hear ya....
You can probably tell it's a huge pet peeve for me and VH....
They have gotten better since "The Day", meaning Dec. 26, 2011, which was the start of the VH new album/tour announcements and our involvement with Shelly and DDE....
But I would still like to see more band involvement on social media, and NOT someone who is posting on their Facebook and/or Twitter pages on their behalf....
Wolf doesn't reply back to fans from what I can see, but at least he does Tweet out various things for shows, etc....Eat Us And Smile - The Originals

If this show was not 50 mins away I would not show but if I get the chance to meet some of you that's cool. Seen them 21x
But still want to feel that big crowd rush.Like Northern girl I myself am older so I got reserved seating a lot less bullshit in those seats.
I've been to country usa every year and being in the lawn chair seating sucks. Plus plan on it takeing some time getting out after.Plus
get there early. You do not want to get there after 6 the cars might be backed up onto and down the highway.The wait might be 1/2 hr
or longer depending on weather or road work which by the way is going on.They are in the process of changing this highway into a interstate.Comment

Weather for sat,high of 76 low 51 should make all happy. No air cond, to worry about Dave.Comment

There's quite a few bands I'm looking forward to seeing.
I just have to catch LoveHammers set to see if they're as cool as their name.
Saw Sevendust a few years back and thought they were badass.
Of all the shows that I've been to over the years, I've never seen Anthrax live, so that's gonna be fuckin' awesome.
Ratt w/ Cavazo should be a cool set...
The whole thing kicks off tomorrow afternoon, and I'm fuckin' stoked!! I probably won't get any sleep tonight at all.Last edited by hambon4lif; 07-16-2013, 02:01 PM.Comment

And it goes without saying, but I hope Van Halen go out there and kick everyone's ass!
Hopefully between all the other bands, and the size of the crowd, they'll bring their A-game.Comment
