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. GNR is not doing the scheme, it's all this goddamn media that is crazy about writing articles about ANYTHING gnr related, they really wanna report about shit but they got nothing to work with due to GNR not releasing any information at all. GNR know you do the joke on the actual day. There is no one doing "too early april fools jokes" except for mongoloid press. I expect a "joke" announcement-thing by GNR on the actual day, April 1st.

Black Sabbath Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 We're already getting screwed with ticket presales so let's bend over the diehards even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post The Real McCoy Posted March 31, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted March 31, 2016 If a secret show does happen and someone really doesn't want to use their Vegas tickets because they're offended, I'll gladly take your tickets off of your hands. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did know the band back then, but have had no contact since 1990, except for seeing slash at a little league game in the valley several years ago and an all star jam recently at a small club. But I did give him the hard cock cafe:hell shirt he wears in the paradise city video in April 88, and he also wears it in a few interviews which is a cool thing for me to see. I also was at the it's so easy filming at cathouse in October 89 and hung out on the bus and was in and out of the club while they shot pick up scenes and crowd footage and am in it a little. I would only want to see them in an intimate venue, so I'm hoping for the secret show, I only saw them in small places sitting on the stacks. It would be hard for me to see in an arena just for nostalgia. Those were great days. Slash just played palladinos last month here in the valley for the willie basse recovery fundraiser and killed it. According to their website calendar, they have a sold out "Girls Rock" school showcase that night......but doors for that are at 6:00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paranoyd androyd Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Anyone else here planning to be in L.A. on Friday night if need-be? Got a few friends in the Hollywood area who'll be ready to wait in line early Fri morning (or Thurs night) if it happens. I'd just take off from San Francisco at that point if they were somehow able to get tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With doors opening for this at 6:00, it could well be over by 10:00. There is a local bar here that does one thing early like at 5-6 and will then clear out at 9ish and re-open at 10 for something else lasting until 2-3 AM.

rft2003 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 About the troubadour comment about no show Friday that's not correct. Girl school is there which is a young girls rock camp and has been sold out. Starts at 6 pm so obviously it would be after and a late show if announced Friday morning for limited tickets. I had tickets for all this craziness at the whisky and called them and they're holding my tickets for purchase at the door. My gut still says whisky especially now that you can't buy until the Friday. I'm driving from Vegas but sure going to keep my eye on the troubadour. I'm got VIP package GA Floor for the 8th but a chance to see them in a small venue is worth the 4 hour drive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichelleRenee Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 No, I do not know anyone at the troubadour, just at viper, whisky, some promoters who book everywhere and lots of old 80s musicians. Lol, even some of them have messaged me on Facebook asking what I know, so yeah, everyone is trying to figure it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichelleRenee Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 And I was just looking at the main page for calendar on my mobile where is doesn't show anything for April 1. Regardless of anything, I am going to dinner at the rainbow that early evening and will be down in hwood for the night. Fingers crossed something goes off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emybdc Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 There are all sorts of information flying around so I'll just add mine here: I've heard shit is supposed to go down at 6pm in LA @ the whisky. This came from the same guy who first told me about a warm up gig, which I posted on the other thread about Adlers cancellation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I was surprised as hell when I saw him in the shirt in the video. I gave it to him in Rockford Illinois and hung out with him most of that night before and after the show. Very cool. It was an amazing show. That energy was unbelievable. And watching them play from like 2 feet away was awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
