Poor guy  He seems completely lost.

That poor guy. I saw him the first time in Oslo, when it was a festival and he set it up, right before GNR was supposed to play. While he was setting it up, I thought, what now? Will he just know it works or will he test it, with all the people there. Well, he told everyone cover their ears and did test it. 2 weeks later, I see them in Bern, it doesn't work and he goes pale and Gio comes over to console him. And then obviously the same shit again in Weert. Yeah, don't wanna be him. It used to work like a charm previously. In Budapest it wasn't even set up anymore.

Why does it seem Axl has switched to the handheld train horn vs. the full sized one mounted on the stage?  Did somebody sue them like the stupid b that ruined the mic toss?

Well, it didn't work at the show in Bern and he used the handheld thing. I wonder if they left it off since then. They didn't mount it in Budapest either. Is it broke? Did the guy responsible get fired?

From Austria i guess you can drive to lots of different countries easy enough, you must be boarded by 6? bit harder and expensive from london!

Yeah. Not being on an island makes it easier for sure. Did a 3500 km roundtrip by car. Hollywood Vampires, Guns and Bruce Springsteen. 2 of those Vampires show got cancelled, which led to that last minute desicion major ride from Slovakia to the north of Poland. Exhausted as hell. But so worth it.

Seeing GnR 7 times in 7 different countries! Either you are very rich, or have the most relaxed boss in the world!

We're in Europe. That is not such a big feat, if there is a will. I was in 6 countries seeing concerts last week. ;-)

Tom Mayhue explained their stage gear was last used in Paris.

And they used other gear since? That would explaing why it looked different in Budapest than in Bern. No even the lights are the same.

I find it interesting that they are using 2 different stage desings this tour, unlike  the others where it was a few same-looking stages.

One with those 4x5 dot lights on the sides + the triangular lights on the top, the second as on the photo.
This one looks less appealing to me, the new one looks cool and fresh.

I don't think they have their own stage. They rent the shit, that's why it looks different every time.

I agree, I think it was the lowest point at the Bucharest show, a slow paced song that the people haven't heard, Glen Campbell isn't really known in Europe. 

Yeah. The song is a bore and i hate it. But Axl can sing it well and the band can play acoustic. I guess that's why we get objected to that song way too often.

Axl looking around in Budapest.

So then I wasn't only one following him around for a bit.

Are you there? How do you know they would've guested? Or is that just a guess? Try to find out for us :-)

I am there and talked to people. All I can say.

I guess " to unforeseen circunstances" means not sold out.

BS. There was a "unforseen circumstance" and that wasn't it. Duff and Slash were supposed to play. It was even supposed to be filmed. Damn shame. Hopefully something great happens tomorrow.  But most likely not.

Hi Patrick - sorry, the ticket is sold. 

Damn. When did you sell it? 🤔 Just so I have peace of mind.

Have one extra FOS ticket for the Budapest show. Selling for face value 38900 Hft or about $115/101 Euro. Please PM me if interested.

Do you still have it?

There are a few five star hotels in the city. Hard to say beforehand, keep an eye on the crew's/TB's socials after they arrive. They usually reveal it somehow 

Urgh.  I've stopped following them. Guess I have to make an exception. Though I guess biggest chance with Axl would be when they arrive. But then again, who's to say when that will be.

Does anyone have any clue in what hotel they might be?  Haven't done the hotel thing in ages, but I might be tempted.

I would be travelling from Italy. Saw them in Paris last night and waiting at least one more year to see them again (most likely they will not be even touring next year) feels way too long.

i saw some tickets for sale on Gigsberg.com

is it reliable?

I have no idea. Yeah. I also was done with 2 and thought this can't be it. .

Any chance of getting tickets on the pit? 

At this point, I think they're sold out. They sold the unsold ultimate package tix as FOS on wednesday. If you're close just go and see if someone sells on show day.

Exactly, I thought the same about Golden Circle. Only GA. How early do you think peolpe should be at the venue ir order to be front row?

Well, considering there is also early entry, I would settle for second row. Or front row way on the side.

Looking forward to this one, flying in from the UK on Tuesday. Relatively last minute decision to go, 3 of us, terrible seats right at the back of the stand furthest away from the stage 

Oh well, should be good!! 14th GNR gig..... first since 2018 in Tallin, Estonia. 

If you're there, on tuesday there are also the Hollywood Vampires playing in Budapest.

Dizzy Reed: "I don't know." That about sums it up.

Not sure if it’s him who’s mad at the rest of FNM, or the other way around, or both.

Something's going on. It could well be both. I think he mentioned that nobody checked up on him and I guess they are mad for having to cancel in the first place.

“I have a severe tear in my left Achilles tendon and only 8% of my tendon was left intact. And even that portion was severely compromised. It’s not simply a question of being able to perform again, but extends to basic functionality going forward.”

And Patton said his psychological problems were triggered by being in quarantine for over a year due to the pandemic. So, in a sense, the pandemic did indeed ruin FNM’s comeback.

Oh, well. If Rage want to do it and it sounds like, at least, Zack wants to do it, I'm sure they'll find a way. Even if it is sitting down. Liam Gallagher also doesn't move during his shows.

As for Patton, he did some shows recently, no? Like I said, there I get the feeling, based on something I read a while ago, don't know exactly where or what it was. that there are other issues and he is not really that interested anymore.

Patricks77 - Thanks for posting that FOS tix are available.  Been checking the site regularly and hadn't seen them open up till I saw your post.  Much appreciated.

Yeah. Me too. Ever since I decided last minute that I wanted to go. Got told by Live Nation on the weekend that the unsold ultimate packages would be sold as FOS sometime this week. So I've been checking almost hourly.

Edit: And now they're gone. Budapest pretty much sold out (there are a couple of restricted view seats left). So much for the know it alls saying that it's ridiculous to expect GNR to do another stadium tour. They've been doing pretty well on this run.

Yeah :/ First Covid delayed their reunion tour, then this happened at the second fuckin show. Lots of bad luck for RATM…

Covid also ruined the Faith No More reunion too, and it doesn’t sound like that band is gonna continue now either.

Actually it was Patton's psychological problems. And I'm not sure if they all get along that well.

As for Zack? Where did you hear that?? Highly doubt it's that severe.

^^Nevermind. Official Front of stage tickets available again right now: https://tickets.funcode.hu/event/guns-n-roses-standing
