Chances of this festival happening are close to zero but we'll know a little more tomorrow, at April 21st 19:00 CEST.

Goddamnit. No GC tickets for Nijmegen without ridiculous early entry surcharge? I'm not paying €325,- for GC!

Anyone knows a video with the full concert and some high quality sound? From what I've seen there are some great videos around but the sound isn't too good.

I think McBob introduced GN'R in Nijmegen with: 'Nijmegen! Stop your grinning and get that finger out of that dyke... From Hollywood.... Guns N' Roses'

Guns N' Roses intro Nijmegen + It's so easy 

Epic show. We entered the GC at 15:45 when there was still loads of space available. Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown was a nice surprise. They were into it, enjoying themselves and so did the crowd (as far as I could see). They thanked Guns N' Roses extensively for the opportunity to open for them. The sound for both Tyler Bryant and Biffy Clyro was crap btw. Biffy Clyro was ok, not special but not boring. Finally at 19:40 the Looney Tunes intro and the equalizer kicked in. The crowd in the GC was timid but into it. It took up until the encores for a moshpit to start. It's been said before and now I confirmed it for myself, the audio on crowd shot video's from live shows doesn't do justice for Axl's voice. Sure I miss the rasp too but what a voice. Undoubtably the best frontman touring in 2017. I'm not sure if someone noticed but Axl couldn't make the high pitched screams at the end of November Rain ('everybody needs somebody...'). Melissa seems to cover this for him, but it could also be a tape. Overall the band played super tight. Duff was into it, grinning at the crowd. Slash was awesome, hell the whole fucking show was epic. Almost 3,5 hours of your favourite band leaves a smile on my face that will remain there for quite some time!

Im flying from South Africa!! Whoo hoo!! 

Question ... i booked my ticket through viagogo and didnt realise it was a resellers vibe ... has anyone ever used them before and had any problems? There is a different name but i did get an email to download my ticket and have it! 

Fingers crossed that it's legit. 

Any members living nearby that can snap a pick of the podium being build? Somehow I'd like some reassurance that it's really happening...

So  topticketshop charge my creditcard,send me an email ticket and  10 days before the show i will get the real paper tickets,is this the way  it works?

In the past i buy them from  free record shop.... But  not  this time

If it is not an official outlet of Ticketswap app, where tickets are verified, I wouldn't do it. The risk of being scammed is too big, sadly enough.

I didn't expect it to sell out this fast. In 2006 there were only some 30K tickets sold. Stoked that it's gone be 60K now. By the way, does anyone know if the golden circle has its own bar area?

Are you copy pasting the code? Try typing it. And just checking, but it is the code that belongs to that specific card correct?

Is there a Nightrain presale for this? I've always disliked Nightrain as it feels like a horrid cashgrab, but this thing has gotten me nervous. I want to buy tickets now so I don't have to go through the certain Ticketmaster chaos this Friday... 

There is. I hope there are some golden circle tix left on friday, four is not enough for me and my friends.

Got my golden circle tickets too. Anyone have any idea what the golden circle plan is for Nijmegen?

Woohoo! This is so exciting!! But... um... having never been to a concert in Holland, what does this mean? You think they'll be in Rotterdam and Arnhem too? Could that be possible, you think, three dates? Or is it just promo for an Amsterdam concert?

God I hope it will be Goffertpark. Kuip could work too, but I'd hate Ahoy Rotterdam or Gelredome in Arnhem. Nothing beats a festival like setting. Malieveld in The Hague would be sweet too...

GN'R's intro are legendary, especially how McBob used to do it. But the intro music played just before they go on is great too, I think. I especially like 'The people who died' by The Jim Carrol Band. Or 'Everybody knows' by Leonard Cohen? What is your favourite song? 

2002 Pukkelpop, Hasselt, Belgium

2006 Rock am Ring, Nurnbergring, Germany

2006 Goffertpark, Nijmegen, The Netherlands

You have abviously not had the luxury to see the new band live...

bullshit

Is that the password?
