C# is by far the more modern but there's still a lot of legacy VB stuff about.

They're both pretty similar in syntax with just a few changes between them, so you can quite easy go from c# to vb.net later if needed anyway.
I'd suggest learning C# as it will give you a better grounding in programming properly.
C# is more of a follow on from C, C++, Java etc. Where as Vb.net tends to be a bit 'lazy' with how certain things are done.

C# FTW.
It's used much more in industry than VB.
You going to be doing Web or Windows stuff?
