That's why I pointed out the floor seats that have not been released for sure. From watching this show over time, it seems like outside of the back of the floor, they've released everything at this point. You seem to be able to tell based on the single seats that were there as well as the resale tickets. They may still be holding a row here and there for whatever reason but as far as I can tell, all large chunks of seats have been released. Every section either has some combination of single seats, some resale seats or the little "see who is sitting here" facebook symbols.

Actually....I thought this was the Atlanta thread, which wasn't selling nearly as well as Orlando. I believe Orlando is basically sold out and has been for some time. In fact, I think they recently added some seats on the floor and also some cheaper General Admission tickets for a section behind all the seats on the floor (I don't recall any other stadia having these cheaper type GA tix). So, sorry about that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, sorry about that! No problem. The general admission they added is a deck that is behind the lower level of seating. To be fair, the Georgia Dome has a much higher capacity than Camping World Stadium. In the base configuration for football, the Georgia Dome holds 75,000 while Camping World holds 60,000. I don't know what the concert capacity is for the Georgia Dome but I think Camping World in this configuration is probably 46,000 or 47,000 including the partial view and general admission deck.

It will also be my wife's first GNR show. 2nd for me. 12/31/1991 Joe Robbie Stadium was my first. It will be hard to top that show. I wonder if it was the only UYI show that they started on time. They managed to time everything so that the New Years countdown would happen during Paradise City to close the show. I couldn't make the GNR/Metallica tour and then my favorite band disappeared. I couldn't bring myself to see NuGNR. I vowed long ago that if Slash ever returned I wouldn't miss it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RochelleRochelle Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Palm Beach County here too! Can't wait for Friday. It'll be my 3rd GNR show this year ( went to both Vegas shows) 7th time overall. Have Floor seats in Sec 2. Passed on pit tix, too hot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanity_lost Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Speaking of calling a venue sold out or not... I've got the (possibly incorrect) impression that if they don't put the seat up for sale then they don't have to count it as not being sold. There could be thousands of seats that are empty and they can still call their show a sellout because all the seats they put up for sale sold. I am also wondering if they may also retroactively decide a section wasn't for sale after all to manipulate their numbers. What made me wonder about this was that there was a comment about the KC sales in an article earlier. They mentioned they only so many seats were available and the number they threw out seemed like a really small number for the size of venue and what (at least to me) appeared to have been on sale originally. Unless closing a section and moving people meant they no longer counted those seats as being for sale. Of course I could have a completely incorrect impression.

And I also went to Vegas, saw just the first show though. That'd be funny if we were on the same plane, although I flew out of FLL and I'm guessing you flew out of PBI. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine that anybody that knows this in advance isn't going to release that info. I would guess one of the higher end hotels. Maybe the Ritz Carlton or JW Marriot or something like that. You can probably find the crew at Quality Inn or Motel 6. 2 hours ago, lukeaxl said: Just need to win the lottery and I'll be there.

Where on earth do you live that it would take winning the lottery to go to Orlando of all places? Tickets can be had for $55 face value. At worst you'd have to win a scratch off lotto ticket.

I'm in the hotel business and my best guess would be one of these: Waldorf Astoria, JW Marriot, Gaylord Palms or the Hyatt Regency on I Drive....they're all pretty much 4.5 - 5 star hotels.. Edit: There is also the Grand Bohemian, downtown...which is closest to the stadium...and the Ritz Carlton...which is close to the JW Marriott. Need to get CSI: Mygnr to call the hotels and see if we can get the 411. Edited July 28, 2016 by Kasanova King Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aubrey1111 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Does anyone know if there is street parking near the stadium or somewhere I can park nearby tomorrow morning (around 10am) to go to the box office? Or will they already be charging event parking prices? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They certainly won't have the parking staff out there at 10AM to charge the event prices. Any time I have gone to a venue box office, there has always been a way to get in and park close to the box office window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlthepose Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) When GNR played in Orlando in 2011 they stayed at the Grande Bohemian Downtown , They drank in the Lobby before the show etc . You could do your GNR CSI starting there possibly . Here is a Pic of Dizzy FN Reed and Me After The Show In Ft Lauderdale ! This was in 2006 when I Just walked to the Backstage after the show and there they were , But no AXL .

It's closest to the stadium (maybe a 10 minute drive, max) and it's located downtown, where there are about 50 bars/clubs within a 6-7 block radius.
