    I'd say they are even better than the old days...

      Its market rate though...That is what a rock show commands from someone like VH.

      We shall see, but I bet they do more than fine on this tour attendance wise.


      E, if you just gathered all of your empties I bet you could get halfway to a ticket.

        Ted has mellowed out and isn't the stage hog he used to be. I think their playing has actually improved as well.
        No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!

          Today everyone has their hand out. The venues want huge tastes of the gig including the merchandising. In the old days it wasn't so bad. Everyone has gotten more greedy but as long as people are willing to pay they say bend over. Easy available credit is what I blame. When it was hard to get credit cards and most people had to pay in cash the prices were lower because people could only pay so much. Now they just pay it and worry about the bill later. It's why in the west the consumer debt is so high. If people just had cash again the prices would go down on everything. Easy credit balloons markets. College tuition is a good example.

            Yeah, when corporate greed takes over...

            I dunno about that, we'll see though...

            Wouldn't be worth it...

                Saw Ted in 1980 in his loin cloth days. The loudest concert I ever went to. My right ear was hammered for three days. His live tone with the 6505 amps and he uses one Classic 30 and blends that in sounds great especially with his 65 Birdland. I think he's getting the best tone now he ever got.

                  he was a babblin' lunatic retard at the show here for bike week
                  Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!

                    Good...

                    I'm glad Ted is still enjoying himself, kicking ass, and not taking names of the lame...

                      Yeah, I had my hearing damaged by Ted in 80 too.

                        Dave or the grave!!!

                        Do not understand some people. We all were praying for DAVE on the VH mic and now that he´s doing stellar at his age you all badmouth him. Cón, he doesn´t need to be that good technically. He is singing the lyrics he once wrote with his heart, and I don´t know a vocalist as dynamic and energetic like him today!!!

                              Thanks...

                              Exactly my point...

                                No, hermano. he wrote with his hand.
                                Besides, he may be doing "stellar" visually, but vocally, he is not. At least to me.
