Bards Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 The dates are perfect for me, as I'm in Taiwan and the shows fall during Chinese New Year which means I'll have the time off anyway. But this Japanese credit card deal does throw another wrinkle into the equation. Hopefully they'll add some more SE Asia dates (Taipei? Fingers crossed).

Nalbi Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 From what I get, for Tokyo, you can buy "VIP" pit tickets for $300. The cheapest tickets are $100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait! I hope there is a change they will choose to go to the Balkans, although I don't see it happening.... Can't wait to see which country will be the closest to where I am! Come on, you guys! Announce the days!! we are dying here! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nalbi Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Well, the good news is, as it seems that they decided to go everywhere else before Europe, unless they plan on playing in Africa, we should be next. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty normal to do Japan, and then head over to Australia/New Zeland after the Asian dates... And then do Europe in the summer months... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even for the general sale they need japanese credit cards? any solution please @Powerage5 As I said earlier, there isn't really a work-around for the credit card thing - it's how it works for all ticket sales, not just the presales. I've never heard of these ticket agencies some other people are talking about, so I have no idea how affordable they are or how good the service is. All I know is I wouldn't recommend traveling to Japan for concerts to anyone that doesn't have someone based in Japan who is able to get you tickets.

scooby845 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 I am so happy for Japan fans..somehow Guns belong in Japan and they always play kick ass shows there.... I am just wondering why isn't it in Tokyo Dome (it would be epic comeback) and why is there 7 days between Osaka and Tokyo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Słash Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 This credit card situation has really fucked my mind over, I was waiting for this since such a long time, if anyone finds some legit site to buy tickets when they go on sale without a Japanese Credit Card then PLEASE pm/tag/share with me. If Japan doesn't works out, then well I will wait for the Europe shows, I hope to God that there are NO FESTIVALS for Europe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bards Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Someone told me that you have to book the Tokyo Dome like a year out, so that could explain the choice of Saitama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RooSaa Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Would be kinda unfair if everyone gets a concert only europe gets just festivals .. i doubt they would do that ... i hope they will not do that ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used the site www.aucpad.com as my payment agency but it's in Korean, and you should sent the wire to their Korean bank account. Seems they're doing as purchase agency as well, so you'd better contact to aucpad@gmail.com whether they could help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Y'all are gonna be disappointed when they announce the European tour. It's virtually impossible to do a summer European tour and not play at least a few festivals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tourettes2400 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) Got my nightrain email with my presale code. Pretty sure I won't need them. I wonder if it is okay to sell them lol?

A whole festival tour and nothing else would be kinda unfair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

U2 always do summer european tours and They've never played a festival (ok except Glasto, But it happened once in a lifetime....) U2 isn't exactly a fair comparison. U2 wouldn't fit the bill on any of the rock/metal festivals (Download, Wacken, Graspop, etc.), wrong clientele. On the other hand, a lot of the pop festivals are geared towards a much younger age range, who would probably have little to no desire to see U2 either. With them it basically comes down to the fact that they wouldn't fit in anywhere. That's not to say it's impossible for a band to do a major European tour without playing festivals. But one of the reasons so many bands do a lot of festivals is the festivals offer massive paychecks to get exclusivity rights. Seeing as GN'R is apparently all about the money now based off their ticket prices...it's easy to put two and two together. But you can be sure the big rock/metal festivals are making insane bids to get GN'R. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
