Jane M. Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I don't live in LA and it's not like I ever had plans to attend this show (if in fact it happens) but $2k for a good ticket? LOL, LMFAO, & GTFOOH. No thanks. I love my lord and savior to death but I have priorities. I'll be happy with something from periscope or youtube. I could settle for one good pic of those 5 idiots together too. I don't ask for much, I'm easy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(That they most definitely wont let me take in but whatever.) So... But jokes aside, if it's AFD5 and I can afford to go I promise I will film Izzy the entire time. You guys will just have to ignore my sobbing from excitement in the background. Fair enough. But I just might be crazy enough to join you.

MillionsOfSpiders Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Announcement delayed due to events in Manchester. Maybe they're going to start cancelling shows, possibly London. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling if it's a 30th anniversary concert he will pick who he wants up there so there will be a chance Izzy and/or Steven won't be there.. I hope not.. I won't be able to afford the tickets and flight with hotel so I will sit home and watch it on periscope hopefully.. hopeful someone will upload it to YouTube. Izzy has been quiet lately but that really doesn't mean much. Izzy will appear for a while than disappear for a while. He is a mystery.. i dont think axl will have Izzy sign something saying stay quiet because Izzy can behave.. If Axl would "pick" people for AFD show (and would not include Izzy and Steven) then he really should change the band's name officially into " Cunts N' Roses" like @DieselDaisy suggested on another thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they will postpone a few. I got jumped on in the other thread for mentioning this but when the Paris attacks happened a lot of shows (outside of france) were cancelled due to insurance issues. I don't see why this attack would be any different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter has come home today from school telling me all about this terror attack because her friends mum took her older sister to the show last night. None of my family want me to go to the shows in June, so maybe they will. Edited May 23, 2017 by MillionsOfSpiders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beautifulanddamned Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 The attack was so sick. I'm sure the whole concert industry is in chaos right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're physically fine, my daughters friend told her she heard her mum and sister crying all night. I still just feel sick, when I think of those young children and their poor parents who were still looking for them today.. it's horrific. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been so many terror attacks in Europe during past year. The biggest problem IMO is, that even if they have good security procedures before people go in to the venue, it's useless if they don't have them when people come out.

It's almost impossible to protect people once they're outside the venue though. The best they could to is check people as they're leaving but that's not going to stop anybody that's standing on the sidewalk or on the street. Or maybe waiting in the parking garage... I think the reality is wherever there's a large group of people we have to now accept the fact that there's a risk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Darkenchantress Posted May 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2017 I also thought about the shows being cancelled or delayed, which would mean I probably couldn't go anymore but whatever, people died last night, missing one music show seems so "first world problems" right now. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillionsOfSpiders Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I am going to London this weekend, I booked it ages ago with all of the main attractions included because it's my sons 4th birthday on Friday and that's what my kids wanted to do. I feel just as uneasy about going to these as I do a stadium concert. Wherever there's a crowd, there's a chance they will target it.

Jane M. Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Off topic: I've been reading the Lithographs thread and I think I've been doing all things wrong in life. I should have been something like a "Official GNR litho chaser" and make easy money. Going city after city buying maybe 3-4 to resell on ebay. Yeah, I'm an asshole ? but seriously the way people bitch, whine and fight for those is amazing and the amount of money they're willing to pay is unbelievable. Random thought of the day. Carry on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
