born2boogie Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I wonder if they can get around that clause by performing a gig under a different "secret" name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do remember the date coming out but I think most rightly assumed that this was one of many dates to come out and it was quite likely that other dates would be announced. To quote the Rock "It doesn't matter" if you see the first gig or the 2nd gig. If you see Slash, Duff, Axl and co together you'll be excited with that alone... the rest is just bragging rights... and really there's not much bragging rights with a gig that holds 20000+ (it's hardly the ritz, or a bowling alley), the only way you get something ultra special is if they play and break up right after, and you're one of the attendees that saw it in person (unlikely). If I had tickets to Vegas, them playing a gig before would have no affect on my enjoyment of the gig, my thinking would be that they'll just be that little bit tighter when I see them. Definitely wouldn't sell my ticket. Quote History will be made in April when Guns N’ Roses - featuring the iconic lineup of Axl Rose, Slash and Duff McKagan - regroup for the first time in 23 years on the T-Mobile Arena stage. After announcing that they will headline Coachella, the band has now confirmed the very first place the world can see their historical return will be on the Las Vegas Strip, where they will perform a two-night rock spectacular at the brand new T-Mobile Arena. Guns N’ Roses will perform Friday, April 8 and Saturday, April http://www.axs.com/events/306247/guns-n-roses-tickets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom2112 Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 1 hour ago, Kasanova King said: It was advertised by Axis and the official promos as the "first time together in Las Vegas" or something along those lines. But that being said, I agree with the rest of your post. Vegas will be the first full-production show. Any club gig will be limited in production, etc. And for anyone that is thinking about selling their ticket.....what if they bring out the "known lineup" at the club gig...Axl, Slash, Duff, Fortus, Frank, Dizzy.....but then bring out Adler and Izzy for the last 5-6 songs in Vegas? Would you not be banging your head in regret for missing that? Anything is possible at this point and selling your ticket because of some private club gig prior to the Vegas shows is crazy, imo. Well, it would still be true then. It will still be their first time together in vegas as the latest version of GnR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace Nova Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 GUNS N' ROSES is rumored to be playing an intimate warm-up show this coming Friday, April 1. If it happens, the concert will take place at one of the Los Angeles-area clubs where the band first played prior to the release of its iconic debut album, 1987's "Appetite For Destruction". More information is expected to be revealed by Friday morning, at which point a limited number of tickets will go on sale to the general public. As previously reported, GUNS N' ROSES will embark on a 21-city North American tour to follow the previously announced run of comeback shows. Exact dates and venue details have not yet been announced. GUNS N' ROSES has six concerts scheduled so far, all in April: two at the Coachella Music And Arts Festival, two in Las Vegas and two in Mexico City. The exact band lineup has yet to be confirmed beyond singer Axl Rose, guitarist Slash and bassist Duff McKagan, although it is almost certain that keyboardist Dizzy Reed, guitarist Richard Fortus and drummer Frank Ferrer are on board as well. Original members Izzy Stradlin and Steven Adler didn't appear to be involved in the gigs, but Adler's solo band abruptly canceled a show at the Whiskey A Go Go in Los Angeles on April 1, with the venue tweeting, "Stay tuned for a big announcement! #GunsNRoses." There is now speculation about a guest appearance by Adler with GUNS. The last show Axl and Slash played together was on July 17, 1993 at River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires. The latest incarnation of GUNS N' ROSES, which only included Axl from the original lineup, played a residency in Las Vegas in 2014 but has remained silent since. According to Billboard, the GUNS reunion — which sources say has been in the works for two years — is asking for anywhere from $3 million to $5 million a show.

Gordon Comstock Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I wouldn't be upset or anything if there was a private show, but I would be annoyed, not so much because Vegas was billed as the first show, but because they billed it like that so they could charge an arm and a leg... Seems like they'd just invite people to a rehearsal in wherever they're rehearsing, unless they plan to stream or somehow release a club show.

proud10 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) I think that entire blabber mouth article is just speculation and click bait based on the Whisky cancelation. No evidence or sources given, and I've never seen them break news before. Either way though the sooner we see them the better but Vegas is still the first real show in my eyes haha Edited March 31, 2016 by KiernanProud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

challenger70rt Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I for one hope they do do a secret show, so that we might Bask in the Butthurt. While I do understand the frustration, I don't understand why people can't just be happy for others that might be lucky enough to get to attend. If you need to be at the first show so badly, then hop a flight to LA early and follow the rumors like a hawk. If your not willing or able to do that, then you obviously don't want it bad enough. Control the things that are within your control and stop worrying about things you can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spirit Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 To all the predictions of April fools. I'm not sure what everyone here is used to, but you usually do the prank on the actual day. Not some elaborate scheme starting a week or days before. That being said, there are no valid sources yet to confirm any show at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
