^ That is what we are here for! Keep us posted on what you find out. And give the kitty a pet from me.

My hubby is a Van Halen fan from back in the day so I agreed to go with him. Once again this was at our new downtown arena. This time our seats were on the upper tier. OMG!!!!! It is VERY steep and I was terrified at first. I did not dig it at all. Thankfully, we were back 3 rows from the edge because I guarantee I could not have sat in that row. They had a huge video screen behind the stage but they had these speakers hanging down so we couldn't see very good at all. That was disappointing. The opening act was Ky-Mani Marley, Bob Marley's son. It was reggae with a little bit of a pop sound. It was pretty good. After he was done playing, they flew this awesome 15 foot or so remote controlled blimp around the arena. It even had a strobe light and it was COOL! I want one. lol So they take the stage....Dave was in a sparkly jacket and Eddie had camo pants on and no shirt. YIKES! Actually, he didn't look toooo bad. lol It was LOUD! The place is built for sports so the acoustics could be a little grating at times. Dave's still got the stage presence thing. He was jumping around and high kicking and everything. LMAO At one point, they brought out this giant blow up microphone with handles on it and he got it on like it was a horse and bounced around on stage! LOLOLOL Eddie did a 10 minute guitar solo. He's amazing. I might add here that my wisenheimer husband leans over and says...now you can tell your friends that you've seen a 'real' guitar player! He said to get a rise out of me. In reality, he is as big a Mike Campbell fan as I am. Okay, maybe he doesn't think Mike is 'darling' like I do. LOLOL Here is the set list...a collection of hits, naturally: You Really Got Me I'm the One Runnin' With the Devil Romeo Delight Somebody Get Me a Doctor Beautiful Girls Dance the Night Away Atomic Punk Everybody Wants Some So This Is Love? Mean Street Pretty Woman Alex solo Unchained I'll Wait - we decided on this one that they piped in the keyboards but we didn't see any keyboard player. lol And the Cradle Will Rock Hot For Teacher Little Dreamer Little Guitars Jamie's Cryin' Ice Cream Man Panama Eddie solo Ain't Talkin' About Love Encore: 1984 /Jump I enjoyed watching them, as much as I could actually see. They seemed to be having a great time which was fun to watch. As for little Wolfie...there was not a thing wrong with his playing. I know he has come under fire in some reviews. He was just fine and having a great time. Can you imagine being a teenager playing with Van Halen? I'll bet he couldn't believe his eyes the first time he played with them and he saw and heard the crowd! It was a good show, maybe a little loud....ahhhh....the things we do for love!

What a scandal! I wonder who it is.

Ladywiz....I am sorry to hear of your loss. The loss of a pet is so hard. And what a beautiful tribute you wrote. Rest in peace, Junior.

I'd be glad to help. It'll be a huge job. We promise to be patient. lol

Sharon! That is so scary. Cute story, Barb. hehe High school is too old.

I also said thank you to my husband last night for marrying me 12 years ago. lol

ICK!

I have watched it enough times that now reading the book, I recognize word for word what was in the movie. LOL Some of the text in the book is not in the movie so I am thinking we are reading the parts that were edited out of the movie for times sake. Pretty cool!

^ ME TOO!!! Then you could 'twinkle, twinkle,twinkle' you and your husband here, right now so the two of them could go to Van Halen tonight and we could have a girls' night out! Get to twinklin'!!! LOL

For God's sake. How pathetic.
