Coma needs a break in my opinion. I’d rather hear Locomotive or Breakdown. 

Especially Breakdown. Or I will Breakdown.

Never thought I'd see the day someone would say this....

if we sum up all the members from the main gnr forums we have a total of 150.000 but 2,1 millions fans attended to the shows.

for each 14 gnr fans that attended the shows, there is 1  gnr fan that have an account on this gnr foruns. that proportion means 7%. the other 93% dont have an forum account.

Alright.  I think I'll be going to this one solo. Who's going and wants to meet up for drinks and general partying before and after?

I also don't believe they were enemies, they just couldn't make music anymore together. It wasn't artistic differences, Slash has said "My departure had nothing to do with artistic differences as many people claim to know. [...] I would have hung in there wih Axl through an industrial record or whatever else he wanted to try if the vibe between us was positive. [...] Unfortunately we stopped being a team somewhere along the way."

He listed the constant disrespect for all involved by going on late for no good reason night after night, the legal manipulation Axl forced on him and the band and the loss of Izzy and Steven, "without them the band no longer had it's original chemistry." as reasons for leaving the band in the end.

The last sentence also leads me to believe Slash is not in this for the long haul unless something is worked out with Izzy and Steven and only signed this 1 year tour contract for the fans because it's better than nothing and no one knows if they will ever make it work with all 5.

I don't think Axl is that good of an actor. He was upset over the whole ordeal. They figured it out and that's great but I seriously doubt it was a setup. 

I'm just waiting to see if it blows up or continues on. If it's the same set/ same show when they come close to me, I'll probably skip it due to the prices

I'll complain if they hit the same venues playing the same songs. Until then, many people have not seen this set live. This is awesome for those people. Let them play for everyone then go ahead and whine about the set if it's stale or if there's no new music. I'll be watching and if they don't mix it up when they come back my way this summer, they probably won't get my $250 per ticket.

haha I would never say "And" has to be "or" haha

I guess there could be yesterday's AND there was a time.

Even if there is no Izzy or Steven I hope they at least dust off yesterday's, slither, perfect crime or some other rarities. Would be a pleasant surprise 

Key word is OR probably get one swapped out song, that is all.

Overall a great show. Place was pretty packed, upper decks had areas that were empty. Seemed like an off night for Axl vocally. Most disappointing was RQ I  watched a video of a recent killer performance and this one was subpar. It was great to see Axl performing rather than sitting in his chair like we saw in vegas. People keep saying NR is the weak link but I found it pretty decent while better and catcher were pretty weak, and I like those songs. Anyhow just nitpicky stuff. It was a good time.

Do you know if they sell lithograph's outside? It's my understanding they only sell them inside. Having said that what time does doors open? I'm thinking 6:30ish?

Thought the email said 530 but all the shows it seems people are getting lithos from merch trucks outside as well?

Is there a meet up before the show?

You can actually exchange your tickets as many times as you want. They tell you it's a one time thing but not true. I exchanged my tickets 5 times for this show. Ended up 7th row on the floor right on the isle.

Yup they will release them 24 hours before the show or day of.

Is that too late for exchanges?

Just checked It out, you are right. I am actually very surprised that this show and the Phoenix show are selling so poorly. I believe that both cities are very large and should have sold better.

Ticketmaster games they play...

I've been watching for a chance to upgrade. I doubt they sold all those spendy front tix overnight. I'm watching to see when they release them. The sales for this show don't look that great but oh well, not gonna let that ruin it for me

The floor sold well but there will be plenty of empty seats unless It picks up drastically over the next few days.

looks like they pulled all the close floor and pit tix

yesterday there were some available platinum seats and vip  and what not.

Yeah until there are any clips of this new song being soundchecked, I won't believe it

I think it's fair to question what purpose she has in guns n roses. Does she contribute to the band? No. Is she kinda annoying? Yes. Does she hurt the sound of the band? No. Is she an upgrade from Mothergoose? Yeah but that's not saying much. 

Fair enough. Everyone's entitled to their opinion. I don't think she detracts from the overall experience so it's okay by me. I think she is a contributor and not a contractor, but really if you're whining about a replacement that's not about izzy or steven, really? Who cares? She's not a replacement of an original so wtf?

Sooooooo i think this show may have been pro-filmed:

 

Of course it was, pretty sure they all are. Will we ever see them? That's questionable. 

Did mach22 even play?

Was it Gunsfanoldie? Who got taken backstage in Vegas? Only story I've heard of.
