I live in Connecticut, but the company I work for has a manufacturing facility in Ferndale. I found out today I have to make a business trip out there, so I'm trying to schedule it around the GnR show. They don't know that of course. So really my company will be paying for my airfare, hotel, and rental car to come see the show, having to do only minimal work while I'm there. I love it when a plan comes together. If possible, try to get yourself a hotel somewhere between the Livonia and downtown Detroit areas and join us at the pre-party! 5 hours ago, jthunders13 said: Hey I'm from Dearborn.

I would love to come to the party - thank you very much for the invite. I'll try to get the trip booked next week so everything is set in stone. Typically I stay in Madison Heights but I'll look for something a little closer down towards Livonia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madison Heights wouldn't be too bad actually. You'd be about 25/30 minutes from my place for the party, then Ford Field is about 20 mins from there for all of us to hit the show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I didn't add up the seats or anything, but it looks like there's 800 or so tickets left as of now. The most available are in sections 108 & 124 for some reason. The other sections left have 1 - 4 single seats avaialble. Looks like a sell out is upon us.

KURT19 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 But take a look at Section 109... It's wide open. This is a direct result of the evil nature of the ticket business. The powers to be hold back HUGE blocks of tickets in an attempt to thwart the secondary market. These "hold backs" are sporadically released so that the buyer should never have to look elsewhere besides the direct source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My trip is booked, I'll be out in the area from the 22nd through the 24th. Staying in Madison Heights. No ticket to the show yet, but will pick one up when payday hits at the end of next week. That's a consequence of spending way too much on the GnR shows out my way, along with McCartney, ELO, etc. I'll probably leave work by 4 at the latest on the night of the show, sooner if I can. Generally my company's facility is a ghost town after 3 or so. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone. This will be my first GnR show is just over 25 years.

RussTCB Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I was down in my basement an hour ago or so and got all excited at the prospect of it being filled with GN'R fans next month. That whole day is gonna kick so much ass. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I just have to say, I'm almost more excited for the preparty at Russ' than I am for the gig itself. Besides the fact that Russ' music center is absolutely bitching (And I can attest to that personally), this is probably going to be one of the biggest get-together of MyGNR members ever, including at least 4 staff members. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I mentioned this when either of you were here, but that whole set up has been years in the making. Events like this were exactly what I had in mind when I had the original idea, so this is gonna be awesome. I just told someone the other day that I'm almost as excited for the pre-party as I am the actual show, so I'm glad I'm not the only one lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
