no tickets available = SOLD OUT !

YES all tickets sold incl VIP

Of course you can still buy tickets, but it would be through a second party. Prepare to pay slightly more than face value.

Thanks

Took me about five seconds to pull up 4 together on Ticketmaster ... for every show ... including the Halloween opener.

Please don't spread false information like that, as I'm sure there are plenty of GNR fans that would still like to buy tickets for those shows. Don't deceive them into thinking they can't still buy at face value.

You wouldn't happen to be a "second party" now would you? I like the way you said "slightly more than face value". :rolleyes:

As far as i'm aware Ticketmaster is a second party, all tickets are SOLD OUT on the official guns n' roses website. So by the law, i'm not spreading false information.

I wouldn't expect you to realise this. So you are forgiven.

Thanks.

Law has nothing to do with it.

One website saying they sold all their tickets means THAT site has sold out. Not that the actual show has sold out.

Funny. People say ticket sales don't matter, and then they lie about how many tickets GnR has sold. Classic.

TicketMaster is an authorized seller, just like the official GNR website and just like The Joint's box office. None of them is a secondary party, that's why they are not allowed to sell any tickets above or below face value. Ironically, by your definition the GNR website would be a secondary party because the primary party - the ones who are actually receiving the ticket revenue by selling seats to a show at their venue - would be The Joint's box office.

Secondary parties would be StubHub, Ebay, ticket "brokers" and agencies, and those guys standing outside the venue on the day of the event wearing windpants and holding signs saying "I need tickets" while simultaneously screaming to nobody in particular "Selling? Need tickets? Anybody selling? Anybody need tickets?"

"Tickets sold through secondary sources may be sold for less or more than their face value depending on demand, which itself tends to vary as the event date approaches. When the supply of tickets for a given event available through authorized ticket sellers is depleted, the event is considered "sold out", generally increasing the market value for any tickets on offer through secondary sellers. Ticket resale is more common in sporting events and music events."

I'd appreciate an apology similar to the one you gave TM <_<

And the irony of it all is both The Joint and the GNR camp would be PISSED if they knew people were trying to convince everyone that the first six shows are all sold out. Turn away fans with money in their hands when there are plenty of tickets still available? Not cool.

Personally I think there's something wrong with the GNR website ticketing, it's damn strange that only the first six shows are sold out.

The Wednesday November 7th show is sold out, but none of the final four weekend shows are not? Not a chance.

I don't understand the point you are making. The show is SOLD OUT on the Guns N' Roses website, There's no warrant for an apology.

Thanks.

My only guess on that is that GroundCTRL decided to take the option down or something due the shows being close. Whether or not that makes sense, I don't know and I of course don't know if there's any truth to it as it's a guess.

In any case, bionic's post did prompt me to remind my fiancee to go grab her November 7th ticket from Ticketmaster, so that's good.

- November Rain – The tart concoction consists of Belvedere Lemon Tea and fresh lemonade. It costs $10.

- Liquid Dream Shot – This fruity libation features a mix of Absolut Raspberry, Absolut Vanilla, Blue Curacao, pineapple juice and grenadine. Drink one down for $9.

- The Axl Rose – Bound to be a favorite, this drink comes with Champagne, cranberry juice and belvedere vodka. It costs $10.

- Paradise City Limits – Consists of Cruzan Rum, Watermelon Picker, pineapple juice and grenadine. It costs $8.

will any of these shows be streamed at the nighttrain?

Had a feeling they were going to have casino chips.

It's smart marketing. Knowing most if not all of the chips will be kept as mementos instead of cashed in, that's $63K in chips that will never be converted back to cash at the casino.
