So GnR are toruing Canada, I am interested to know from Candians and others if they can handle the midnight concert start time.

In Sydney it started to get a bit edgey around 11.45pm and still no Axl on stage

Lol, but I thought the show starts around 7:00 and GNR go on stage around 9:00! lol

Take the next day off from school or work and you'll be all right and hope that Axl has had a good day and decides to actually play a concert.

If you know what to expect you can prepare... I just take the next day off or plan for a sickie .... i'm seeing four shows and fortunately only have to miss two days of work!

Oh hot damn, I have an exam the following day.
Shit happens, I guess.

As long as they don't eat after midnight it should be okay.





Oh, wait, that's Gremlins.

people might get restless and start rioting and or give the band the cold shoulder when they finally come on stage.

when i went in 06 i was shitting bricks till 12. i knew it wouldnt be before 12, i was just hoping people kept the faith until 12. when you standing there at 11:45 and there is still no show, for anybody who expected the show to start at 10, they start wondering if it will ever happen. it wasnt a major problem last time, when jungle started people still freaked the fuck out and the place was going crazy all night, straight up till 2:30am. i just hope nothing happens during the wait to fuck up the concert.

baby step to midnight.

[RickRoses]

if he DOES make us wait till 12... the show is gonna be even better! the anticipation, and then going fucking insane when the lights go out! its gonna be epic no matter what though.

[SLasH_Tr]

well this depends on the city the people...

in istanbul they were 2 hours late and the concert started@ midnight

i heard some people had to leave before the end of the concert to catch the last bus to their home etc..
and the band had to pay a large sum to the organization
so all in all axl should be more careful about this being late thing
he has to learn spending some time in backstage. he always arrives very late at the venue and goes directly on stage
its just a 1 min walk from the backdoor to the stage
he should stop warming up in the hotel room and learn to warm up in the backstage

They should be able to handle it. I know late starts are rude and disrespectful. But with GnR , it's the norm. You're stupid if you go to a GnR concert and expect it to start on time.

or maybe, MAYBE just a regular guy who'd love to hear some GN'R tunes live and decided to buy a ticket?

Rio 2001 was booked to start at January 14 at 10 PM
It started in January 15 at 02 AM

I guess Axl was a bit nervous. What a shame. Who can't handle 200,000 crazy fans after a 8 years break?


And, if someone's is going to a GNR concert, this person might know what might happend.

I handled it the last two times they played Toronto. Don't understand why I, a dumb Canuck, couldn't handle it again. Fuck, at midnight the night has only just begun and the real fun starts.

[GnRMatt]

I really think this thread is pointless... to the poster, everyone knows by now that GNR come on late like 11ish or maybe later, so I really think you posting this means nothing.
Sorry to sound harsh or anything but this is a worthless topic.
