Popular Post Fitha_whiskey Posted January 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) So my beautiful wife @Whiskey Rose and I were digging thru some old photos and stuff today, and we found these old GnR ticket stubs. Hers is on the left from Toronto, mine on the right from Saratoga Springs NY, 3 days apart. It would be 26 years until we knew each other, yet we both held onto these stubs. We are gonna make a cool photo/ framed thing with these, because for us, it all started because of GnR... Anybody else have old school ticket stubs to post? Or GnR love stories? 😆 There’s gotta be something... Edited January 12, 2020 by Fitha_whiskey 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes me want to scrounge around for my old tickets but I think they're long gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep that was the exchange rate. It continues to bust our balls to this day... If you find your tickets, we’d like to see them... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexterscollar Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I believe this Saratoga Springs show was where the audience chant for "Get in the Ring" was recorded. Hope you sang loud. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Holographic Universe Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I recall seeing Original GNR tickets in Captain Marvel and it made me jealous of anybody who saw them in the 80’s. Like how many people actually saw GNR in the 80’s and appreciated it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thunderram Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 I’ve got a few. They’re in a frame with some pictures, but easy enough to capture with my camera phone. But I don’t see a way to upload to the site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1987b Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 (edited) Great story. Not the best pic but it’s from the 01-01-01 vegas show. Wish I got to see them in the 80s/early 90s though https://ibb.co/BzMtdjj can’t figure out how to post a pic Edited January 14, 2020 by 1987b 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSJ had a great article over the holidays on why ticket prices are so high. It’s not just GNR. Good read https://www.wsj.com/articles/why-concert-tickets-are-so-expensive-11577371024?emailToken=68907e641c2d921dc88172885a25de3aEOce5bAcRpUZHmD9A0QNxokGCq++iJxKFLN2Dw9LxAWHgYwqhr/LecZIqe9gI9y+MNebVEmbbLX7LrHYCA9+kB+I9EZi7s5KfWM2q2ciAHw%3D&reflink=article_copyURL_share 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsinindy Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Ugh, I have looked and looked and looked and I know I have them but i can't find the stubs from the 91 Deer Creek shows or the 92 Hoosier Dome show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I miss those days. I really envy you.. My dad and my uncle always tell me how they got to see Queen, Zeppelin, Floyd or the Stones in the 70s for like 15-20€. They would ask their friends who didn't even listen to those bands but they would still come and join them.. If I asked my friends if they want to see GNR for +150€, they'd call me mad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
