Oops. I thought I had posted that appropriately under "Now Playing". Guess I'm out of practice. I should add, though this important tidbit that VH is touring with David Lee Roth!!! yea!

I've seen them three times (once with Roth, twice with Sammy), but I'm going to skip this go-around.

Who was your favorite? Roth or Sammy?
On another note, I heard Hagar might be opening up a Cabo Wabo in New Orleans. That would be cool. Maybe he'd do impromptu performances like Jimmy Buffett at Margaritaville.

They were both really good, for different reasons, but if I had to choose, I'd go with Roth. With Hagar, the music was harder, which I like, but the main reason (for me) to go see them is to watch Eddie cut loose. During the Hagar tours, it looked like he kind of toned down his playing a bit, and spent more time behind the keyboards. With Roth, he spent more time doing the things on the guitar which made him famous. Both had tremendous energy; Roth in the Vegas showman style, and Sammy in the hard rocking, kick ass (kind of like a heavy metal Ted Nugent) style.

Sheri,

What section are you in? Glenn is talking about getting tickets. If he does, we'll try to get close. He was griping that he should have just gotten the tickets when they went on sale, but he usually ends up waiting and using a ticket broker.
