dalsh327 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 (edited) Play the "I'm being deployed next week" card and bring a couple of things from your unit to hand out that's lying around gathering dust. Might as well exploit what you do to get access. Edited November 6, 2012 by dalsh327 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dariablue Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 It'd probably strictly luck, if anything. I wonder if anyone who's gone already has tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val22 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I'm hoping the band including Axl will hang out at a local bar, so we fans can hang too. I'm not counting on it, but you never know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAxlMorrison Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I'm hoping the band including Axl will hang out at a local bar, so we fans can hang too. I'm not counting on it, but you never know?It's not as farfetched as you think. I hung out with the entire band (sans Bumble and Dizzy) after the AC show, and all I did was walk into a random club in the casino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAxlMorrison Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Yeah, Axl was there. He showed up later than everyone else, but he showed nontheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PENNY16161 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Hey guys-Going to the show this Saturday (cannot wait!). Just wondering what time GnR is taking the stage? I see in the set list posts, it says "Show Start: 11:40" - is that for the opener or GnR? I'd imagine Guns, but want to confirm. Also, I didn't realize there was an opener. Is that the case for each show?Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tberrie007 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 It seems like these shows are going off well for the band, i had a ticket for the 3rd show but had to cancel as i broke a tooth in half two days before my flight and needed surgery. One unused ticket for the GnR man cave.Just wondering, has there been any news or info on the attendance of these shows so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine Fri and Sat shows are close to sellouts with Wednesday selling the least. All in all the shows will be profitable for all... Vegas doesnt do anything that loses money. In the end if the HardRock has a few extra thousand people in their Casino buying drinks and Gambling 3X's a week due to these shows they will make alot of money. With only 2K people if they average person spends $50 thats 100K in revenue right there not including ticket prices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coma16 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) They are probably making a killing off the merch as well. Too bad the items aren't on the GNR site... Edited November 9, 2012 by Coma16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonah Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Wonder if the comp tickets are included in the attendance figures. Cause a lot of free tickets would of been given out to high spenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classicrawker Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 They could not sell out a 4K arena in Vegas? Even with most likely a bunch of comp'd tickets? have to say I am surprised as I would have thought it would have been a no brainer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
