First of all, I'd just like to say hi to everyone. I've been a lurker on this page for ages, but I decided to finally pop in now, due to one important event:
I live in Norway. A rock festival in the city I live in are giving people the possibility to vote for what bands they want to headline next years festival. Given Van Halen's history, it is not easy to say how long this reunion will last, and it would have been great to get to see them before they split up again.
Unfortunately, most of the people browsing through those pages are apparently brats that couldn't even get into the concert without their parents, because Metallica and Tokio Hotel are the bands in the lead. Only 50 or so have voted for Van Halen yet, meaning that we only have 1/10th of the votes Tokio Hotel have. However, before I started collecting votes, we only had 1/100th of the votes required, so it is going in the right direction for us. If people help me here, and on every other forum I've posted this, I think we can be able to turn the tide.
So, I would really appreciate it if people would spend 30 seconds of their day helping me to get Van Halen to Norway. Norway is often skipped by bands even when they are on European tours, so this may very well be the only chance I get to see them.
Here's the link, thanks in advance!
