This should help- http://www.timeanddate.com/sun/usa/las-vegas

I appreciate the link, but I can't get it to work on my phone. I'm guessing it is COMPLETELY dark at 7pm for sure? 

Odd question I know, but what time does it officially get dark in Las Vegas in April? I'm trying to plan some stuff out at night before the concert that requires it to be dark, so I just wanted to be sure. I'll see you guys at NY NY!

Muscular..lol. He is still fat with skinny arms, so I fully expect the ridiculous dj ashba jeans and jackets again. Why can't this guy put any effort into getting into shape?

Sonics I bought the etickets from another user on here, I guess the easiest way is to transfer them to my email address? What do you guys think is the safest way? Just making sure I'm doing it right..

@Eddie Money could you please ask about any new music? Are they planning on putting something out/have anything finished for the tour? Thanks.

The e-tickets are going out on the 11th for sure right? I bought them from another member on here, so I guess the easiest way to do it would be just transferring them to my e-mail? Just want to make sure I'm doing everything right...

This means Axl comes out at 11?

How much are they going for? I would like to get one as well.

Anyone have any luck switching the etickets to the physical copies sent by mail? I would rather have the physical copies, but the guy who bought them bought the eticket option.

No truth whatsoever.  They are routing through other parts of the country first.  I've been vacationing and not as plugged in over the past week but now I'm back and am trying to get more info for you all.  

That sounds good man. I just spent a ton on Vegas, so do you think they will get anywhere close to Louisville, KY?  Thanks again.

Does anyone know where the seat numbers will be? I have seats 15-17 and wanted to know if I would be on the end or the middle somewhere? Thanks.

Awesome bud....I'm sure you'll be happy with your choice when you get there.....this is the view of the venue from the Monte Carlo....(yeah, we're this close)

 

As for why you were only charged a certain amount.....the total includes the resort fee which will be collected at the hotel....which is also negotiable if you gamble enough when you are there.  Make sure to register for a rewards card when you are at the casino so they track how much you gamble....if you play enough, they may waive some or all of the resort fee at checkout.

I have a rewards card and got a room for free at the Flamingo, but have to pay the resort fees. How do you get them to take those off? Do you just ask the person at the front desk?

Do you guys think that section 14 row V will have a decent view? I'm pretty sure it's next to the three sections that are blocked off for the high rollers. I wonder if those seats will be completely filled.

"X is underrated" threads are overrated.

I just don't understand the hate for him in 2002. I'm guessing most people replying are newbies and never witnessed him live with the best band he ever had backing him besides the obvious original lineup.  Buckethead motivated him on a level similar to Slash. I still want that material.

That video of Street of dreams was the first I've listened to it in a long time. I forgot how great it was. I remember watching the videos of the 2002 tour when they came out(and this song was still called "The Blues" I think.). Axl definitely had a drive about him then. Something he has shown again in later dates ('06, '10) with some exceptions. I think he definitely had moments where he shined in '02. But I think he had better vocal performances later.  

It was best when it was the blues with the "ok, nevermind" bit from Rio. The Chinese Democracy version is a bit overkill for my liking.

I was at the Columbus show in 2002..fresh out of high school. The guy killed it live. Doesn't even compare to how he's been the last few years. I remember going to Hammerstein in 2006 and feeling not as entertained (even though it was a good show and he played twat). The 2002 Axl was a force to be reckoned with, just go back and check those killer screams from live and let die. Bone chilling.

He had some rasp in 2002. He also hasn't let out a scream like the example above since 2002. He did it consistently on that tour. I guess I'm in the minority, but I would take the 2002 Axl Rose over any other new version of Axl out there any day of the week.

A real shame that rasp was only there for those (powerful) screams.... Axl Rose without rasp is simply not Axl Rose, and in 2006 he got his mojo back.

I remember him letting out these kinds of scream during Live and Let Die at EVERY concert from 2001-2002. He lost it from 2006 on. He's had some screams that were about half of what this was, but if he could get this back, the entire tour will take off. I'm sure it will be hard for a 53 year old man to do that, but prove us wrong Axl. Take over the world again with this band!

I'm hoping so..if he looks/sounds like 2010-2014, we are doomed. I have a feeling he's working on getting himself ready for real this time...hopefully not ten billion layers of clothing and out of breath every other line. We need THESE kinds of screams back.

Just bought my ticket.  I'll be in section 10, row 5 which is actually on the floor....but in the back, before the raised part of section 10.  Paid $420 for the ticket after fees....should be worth it.....

That looks like a good spot. I keep going back and looking at pictures of the arena being built on the inside, and it seems like the entire lower section looks like it will have a good view. I'm hoping my section 14 row v seats have a good view. 

Sorry I didn't get back to you...pm me.

I ended up paying 495.00 per ticket round-trip. The cheapest I could find and they are wanna get away prices both ways from KY...

Ill be 5 rows in front of you.. You guys best be LOUD \m/

Always have, always will. I was up front for the show at the Joint in 2001 in front of Finck when I was 17 and they could hear me over the loud PA. Did you get lucky and get your tickets through the presale?
