Hi guys, is it 10.30pm at New York-New York? Just got to our hotel now 

That was really great. Recorded it so imagine I'll watch it a fair few times before Vegas.

Some bits were a bit odd but overall, even though there was nothing new in terms of info, it was so good. Lots and lots of unseen live footage, Back Off Bitch etc

No offense, but it is kind of funny seeing most people planning with is with only 10-20 posts

Am I not allowed to meet the older forum members then even though I'm flying in from the UK?

I've been coming on here for years but only just decided to post. If I'm not allowed to come then that's fine.

My personal favorite on the strip. The Palazzo is great!

Great stuff! Thanks

We're coming on the Thursday now and staying at the Palazzo. What's the plan? Looking forward to seeing everyone

We're staying at the Palazzo on the Thursday. Has anyone stayed there before?

Don't get me wrong, I'm no regular reader of Kerrang, but occasionally they'll have a really decent article in there and I dare say this week's new issue has that in this top 20 tracks dissected. Some very interesting tidbits of background info for each track.

Here are some early highlights for me from the article:

20. There Was A Time

- features guitar work from Axl

- Billy Howerdel engineered and recorded the track and praised Axl's "ferocious approach" to perfection

- It's a strong arguement for the best work anyone from GN'R has done post UYI

19. Coma

- it was based on Axl's suicide attempt in 1986

- the rant at the end is believed to reference the band's former self destructive ways

18. Breakdown

- the song closes with Axl reciting a monologue from 1971's Vanishing Point

17. Right Next Door To Hell

- co written by Hanoi Rocks collaborator Timo Kaltio

Worth picking up unless you're already a walking talking GN'R encyclopaedia

I'm kinda anxious to see the rest of that list. That's a pretty damn good start if you ask me, but then again, those are some of my personal favorite GN'R songs.

Agreed. Those are four of my absolute favourites. I would say Axl's vocals on TWAT are my favourite along with Since I Don't Have You. Hopefully they play it on April 8th

I've not been in the office this week but get Kerrang! delivered (part of my job) so looking forward to reading this. Usually it's awful articles on pop punk bands

Quoting this just because I think it's rad as hell that so many forum members are going to these shows!

Yeah. And it would be even more rad if everyone would also state where they are coming from, as very certainly only a few of us are from Las Vegas.

I'm coming from Austin, Texas

We're coming from Manchester, UK to Dallas and then to Vegas. What would be the cheapest travel option from

Texas to Vegas?

Definitely!

Are we all meeting up for drinks before the show then?

April 8th all the way from Manchester England! My first ever visit to America!

Yes! We're coming from Manchester too

Cool whereabouts are you from? What tickets did you manage to get? In the rush to grab tickets I got the $250 ones wish I had gone for 350 ones tho if I'd have known.

April 8th all the way from Manchester England! My first ever visit to America!

Yes! We're coming from Manchester too

Bought 3 tickets from Stubhub. Didn't want to take the chance on missing out completely although still going to try for GA tickets tomorrow.

I'm in the UK and not familiar with SH. Praying there's no issues.

Me +2 for the 8th!

Tempted to get tickets from stub hub now which are sitting but would much rather standing so should I take my luck with the general sale?

Paid for the Nightrain membership but both nights sold out. Hopefully it'll get some other perks over the next year

You have absolutely nothing to lose going the general sale. The stubhub tickets will still be there for a long time.

Thanks! Will do that then. Looking forward to (hopefully) meeting a load of people off here

Hi guys, been coming on here for years but this is the first time posting as I'm very very excited!

Question for you: if I become a Nightrain member today will I get a pre-sale link sent through straight away?

Desperate to go to the first Vegas show! We're coming from Manchester, UK to Dallas for WrestleMania and now this is fate that this is happening as well!

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks to people on this forum I learned - your password is in your account. However the Tix are all gone (or mostly gone). FYI

For both nights? ?
