    Me too man... Doesn't seem as though the timing is lining up for that though? The billboards.. getting the fan club squared away... announcement Mon or Tues.. Tix on sale Sat at 10am????  fahhhhkkkkk

    I was concerned about this for a while. Then I realized it is likely that the floor for each of the stadium shows will be General Admission SRO. The absolute best reserved seats will be made available at outrageous VIP prices at first. The VIP seats that don't sell will be made available at top tier reserved seat price ($150-$300) randomly a few weeks/days before showtime. We are seeing this NOW with the Vegas gigs!! I am a reserved seat type of guy so I will monitor the Dallas GNR Ticketmaster page a few weeks before showtime and pounce on the first set of unsold VIP tickets that I see. If it comes down to it and I am unsuccessful (highly unlikely), I'll have no problem securing tickets outside the gate on the day of the AT&T Stadium Guns concert!

    At the moment, I am regretting purchasing my Las Vegas tickets months in advance. Countless Sin City tickets will be made available at drastically reduced prices next week!!

    Quick question (would appreciate urgent reply)  I've just booked 2  nights at the Luxor to get 2 GA for the Friday show.  Do you reckon if I book 2 nights at Excalibur (purely to get the tickets for the Saturday) they'll cotton on and cancel the transaction? Can't see anything in the Ts and Cs.

    It shouldn't matter. Money is money!

    For those of you who now have excess hotel rooms as a result of the MGM deal, please read this...
     
    My immediate family lives in Las Vegas. We have agreed to host a hardcore GNR fan flying in from Europe to help him reduce his traveling expenses.
    I believe my friend may be more comfortable staying in his own hotel room, opposed to staying with my family.
    If anyone is interested in subletting their room at a fair rate please let me know. My friend is an adult and will not trash the room or run up any charges.
     
    The MGM Deal has blown my mind! While my lodging costs in Las Vegas will be $0.00 because my family lives there, I am happy for all of the fans who are now able to attend the reunion shows! Why wasn't this deal made available in January?!?!
     
    Thank You!!

    yeah, fuck the asshole next to you sitting there with his arms crossed and a stick up his ass.

    Keep in mind that the type of fan you describe may be taping the show for fans around the world who cannot be in attendance. It's fun to go wild at a show but be respectful of your neighbors. You never know what their reason for attending is...

    just wait until the show has started and scalpers will be selling tickets below face value right outside the gates.

    you'll be able to choose any tickets you want. don't buy the first you see, walk around and see what different guys have.

    remember, their tickets are only worth what someone's willing to pay, you set the market.

    i've gotten into countless huge 'sold out' shows this way over the past 20+ years. there's no such thing as sold out.

    This plus 1000!!

    This strategy should be used by all fans who don't have tickets.

    This is an instance where Axl's tardiness will be to our benefit...

    Scalpers likely aren't aware of Axl's tendency to go on around 11PM-12AM.

    By 10PM, scalpers will be panicking and fans should be able to name their price...

    worst thing about it is that i'm looking at them considering a purchase, bastards

    It's highway robbery!

    However, at least you know the premium seats are legitimate and most of your money goes to the band/promoter.

    I have a friend who is in need of a GA ticket for for Saturday, April 9th.

    If anyone wants to split an order of "Premium" GNR tickets for the 2nd night, let me know and I'll mention it to my friend.

    The fact that you have to buy premium tickets in PAIRS is a racket!!

    question about axs premium seating- is this the venue's new way of scalping their own tix or are these individuals selling seats that they bought through the venue? ridiculous prices.

    90% chance the venue is scalping its own tickets.

    Virtually every major band does this on Ticketmaster using the term "Platinum Seats".

  8. I just ran across this ebay listing of four night one 200 level seats for $2400!

    Highway robbery!!

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-ROW-A-Section-222-Guns-N-Roses-4-8-Las-Vegas-T-Mobile-Arena-4-8-16-/322018187970?

    The con artist behind this ebay auction was foolish enough to list their phone number. After asking $600 per ticket for seats at the top of the arena, I believe they should be prank called for weeks. Thieving gits!!

     

     

  9. Tesla will also be performing in Las Vegas on April 9th.

    http://www.ticketmaster.com/tesla-las-vegas-nevada-04-09-2016/event/17004F74D8C62850?artistid=736277

    Tesla were Geffen label mates with GNR and have a sound close to Aerosmith/Led Zeppelin/AC/DC.

    If you are a fan of classic hard rock like Guns N' Roses and have nothing to do on April 9th in Sin City, I recommend Tesla!

    I have seen the band five times and have always left the venue feeling energized! If I didn't have tickets for Guns night #2, I would definitely catch Tesla.

    In fact I am disappointed that Tesla will be performing in Vegas on the same night as Guns N' Roses! If Tesla were performing on April 7th or 10th, I'd definitely catch them live!

    Yes, please. This would be perfect. 7 hours from me. Totally forgot about their new stadium going up. Love the cities.

    The MN Vikings have a brand new stadium opening this summer.  I heard on radio yesterday that a "large scale concert" will be announced soon.  I of course immediately thought Guns, but who knows...could be some country act again or         anyone...but it got my attention.

    Being that this is Minneapolis we are talking about, it could be another Prince show. :headbang:

    Huge Prince fan here!!

    They've drawn out Mexico City ticket sales which makes me nervous for some of the other committments. I'm afraid they're looking closely at some of these other dates. It would be great to see Dallas/Houston/Alamodome in SAT but I don't know if we will see them all.  At least not consecutively.  

    I hope that IF there are three Texas shows, they are spaced out over several tour legs.

    It would be great to see the tour at different stages instead of one show right after another.

    I also wonder if Guns could be one of the Austin City Limits Festival headliners in October? I'd like to see GNR rock the sea of ACL Fest hipsters to their core!!

  12. The Dallas announcement has to be soon if the show is on April 30th.

    I predict the announcement will be made within 2 weeks.

    AT&T Stadium is HUGE!!

    I hope the tickets at the top of the stadium are no more than $30 each (after fees). I'll probably have to go VIP for the Dallas show if I want to be close to the stage.

    The regular priced Ticketmaster offerings will probably be in another zip code!

    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.....:axl:

    The first 10-12 rows of SEC 10 & SEC 11 should be elevated portable bleacher type seats according to the seating charts I've seen.

    The lower rows of 10 & 11 are red like the rest of the lower level sections.

    They should be excellent seats, congratulations!!Insert other media

  14. I've enjoyed reading through this thread!

    I hope the rumored Dallas, TX show on April 30th will come to fruition!

    I am going to BOTH Las Vegas shows and would be thrilled to see Guns N' Roses again, 3 weeks later and a few miles my home!

    I wonder if GN'R has the clout to sell out the massive AT&T Stadium? 100,000 capacity!

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AT%26T_Stadium

    I can't see the band daring to put 2 AT&T Stadium shows on sale.

    I think I'd have to buy a VIP package just to be able to see the band with my naked eyes at the colossal AT&T Stadium!
