04/08/2016 - Las Vegas - T-Mobile Arena

I wonder what the mix will be like opening night? As far as hardcore fans/casual fans/hipsters/VIP's/high rollers etc.

Potentially there will be some big names there who might be in Vegas for the fights anyways. But who knows, I think they have a lot of people who are anxious to see them and it could attract some of the bigger names.
How are they gonna get tickets though? It's all sold out. LOL

From the Metal Sludge boards:

MGM is sitting on 1000's of tickets for their "high rollers" and friends and family who will want to go. All of the MGM owned casinos will have an allotment as this is the first show at the new arena. I will get tickets, won't pay a dollar for them either.

But it's not the first show. The killers play there on the 6th

True but I think his point still stands. I had a feeling lots of tickets would be held back for high rollers. I guess at least the hardcore fans will be up front but who knows what the atmosphere will be if a ton of the people are there for just something to do or because it's free.

I think you're fine. StubHub, according to a lot of people in this thread, is legit and backed by StubHub. They might not send a confirm email. Your tickets won't be sent until April 1, so start bitching if you don't have them by April 3.

thanks! ill do that

I think these will be evening with GNR shows. No need for an opener,IMO. I've never been to Vegas ,what time is the curfew there for shows? If they go on at 930 and have to be off by midnight that would still be a 2 and a half hour show.

Doubt there would be a curfew in vegas. I could be wrong. They will have a support as support bands pay GNR to play. So more revenue.

Most indoor arenas in the States have curfews due to union labor etc. Then they get into overtime fees. As far as an opener,I'm guessing Avenged Sevenfold for the US Stadium tour but for Vegas? Who knows. I say nobody. Well,nobody good anyway.

No curfew in Vegas...Axl can play til 3 AM if he wants....

I've never heard of that. I mean don't they have Unionized local laborers? Wouldn't they have to pay them more after 11PM or Midnight if the show isn't over? 3 am sounds great as long as they go on by midnight!

At those prices man they can pay whatever they need to :) But honestly no curfew there is good although I think a proper time might set the case for the tour

The crazy thing is I thought I wanted seats in the lower sections so when the Nightrain sale started I couldn't get in for 20 min then panicked and got the vip section to work and went down to the cheapest option and said screw it atleast I'll have tickets somewhere, I felt cheated by the price bc I only wanted the ticket but now looking at it I'll be on the floor and get early admission...oddly things fell into place. I can't wait to be there.

I hope my story doesn't bother those that missed out on the tickets they want, it was just crazy that this show wasn't announced that long ago, we knew very little about the arena so I feel like a lot of us went into that first sale in shock at the options and what we really planned on doing. The last thing I wanted was to be on the floor among the chaos, but now I couldn't imagine getting a seat. Maybe I'll regret that later but all in all this is going to be awesome.

I will wave to you! I got both of mine on the phone today. I called in early and kept the lady on the phone for 15 minutes until 1PM. She tried to hang up on me a few times. I got Section 218 ,Row B Friday and Section 210 Row B Saturday. It may have helped that I was only buying one ticket for myself for each show.

Haha that's great! You'll get to see both shows, I'll be headed out after the first show, way to be persistent. That lady will never remember you for keeping her on the phone but you're always going to remember this show.

It's easy to tell that they're holding 3 or 4 sections on the lower right hand side because there are huge blocks of seats with nothing for sale. My father received an offer from M Life on Thursday with a stay, play, and show combination offer.

Yes, they definitely held sections 15 and 16 for both nights I believe. I never saw those sections availabe to click on during the sales online and SH has no tickets in either of those sections for either nights. This was my second preference to Floor GA tix as they are on Slash's side of the stage.
