    Others suggesting Jump and Hot For Teacher! Seriously, who are these people? Do they even have a clue what's what?
    Wolfgang Van Halen ‏@WolfVanHalen 3h
    What I've learned more than anything (after asking which songs you wanna hear) is that people think the song is called "Mean Streets" haha

    fyi, I'm really counting every one of your song requests, so if you haven't given me one, do it! You could see it on a future setlist...
    Same ole song and dance...

          We stayed right accross the freeway from the entrance Saturday night. We could hear The Clash when they started talking shit about Van Halen. We knew why Dave said The Clash puts ice tea in Jack Daniels bottles when he said it.

                Pretty decent list Zing. Don't know how bad I'd need to hear Happy Trails, but otherwise...

                I remember during that other era, Mike played the bulk of Sunday Afternoon In The Park during his bass solo with Al. That was practically a show highlight!

                Beer Drinkers would be great, but that had a lead vocal trade off with Mike that I can't picture Wolf doing for some reason.

                    The Rock USA team had a total of 2 mil to spend on this years roster.
                    I have serious doubts that Van Halen demanded half of the entire fuckin' budget just to be there.

                    I'll be there the whole weekend, and even though Van Halen is the only reason that I'm going (BTW, all 4 days are only $69 until the end of April), I'm reality-based (just) enough to know that it's not 1983 anymore.

                    They still, at this moment, do NOT have a headlining act for Day 3....

                    unless, of course, 'TBA' is some band I'd never heard of before.

                        The 'silver' pack is the best way to go. Close enough to the stage, but far enough back to take in everything. Not only that, but you get your own pisser, and the right to reserve that spot for next year (whether you go or not), Not a bad deal for the money.

                        I just got a cool new phone to take some kickass video, and we got ourselves a campground (though I'm still trying to figure out where the hell that is on the map).

                        Van Halen, 160 miles from my house, the only U.S. date they have in 2013.
                        Balls out!

                                Ok.

                                Who's in for this gig?

                                Manbone has made it clear he's going. So has mug.

                                Anybody else?
