Can't believe how close this is! Happy with the seats I ended up with. 

Friday night - Section 5, Row L. Jack Daniels Club Access (not sure what that gets me) and Gold VIP merch (hopefully I get it, I'm from outside North America).

Saturday night - Section 214, Row A. Section furthest from the stage, but directly in line. Front row of it, so unimpeded view. I can also sit my old ass down when I need to!

Had my time in the pits, happy with a reserved seat these days.

 

In between now and these gigs, I've got Wrestlemania and WWE Raw in Dallas, so pretty pumped for the next two weeks. Realizing my childhood and teenage dreams!

 

I won't know a soul in Vegas, so I look forward to seeing you all at the meet-ups. I'll just look for the group of super-hyped 30 and 40 somethings!

Hey many I'm going to NXT, Mania and Raw too! Section 9R Row A for Mania! It'd be so surreal if I bumped into you at both Mania and GNR! Haha

I'm at Bellagio. Been to a few of the Residency shows at Hard Rock. Last show at Hard Rock, Axl was on stage until 4am. This show is going to be insane!

Wow was it really that late? I was hella drunk at that show with @Black Sabbath and @Powerage5 that I wasn't really keeping track of the time that it finished. We met Dizzy afterwards in the lift!

Anyone at the Luxor?

Also, now that all the dust is subsiding with the Vegas hotel deals, one thing surprises me:

It LOOKS like, and I could be wrong, but:

MGM was $897 for a room with tickets

NYNY was $912 for a room with tickets

Monte Carlo was $917 for a room with tickets.

Just noticed it, but I thought that actually goes in the opposite order. MGM is nicest, but least expensive for this deal. Does that make sense? Just something that occurred to me. But I thought it was Monte Carlo<NYNY<MGM in terms of niceness.

I bought one lot at the Luxor for $814 (I was staying there anyway so just cancelled my original reservation to get this one with the ticket) and then bought an additional weekend at Excalibur for Saturday tickets for $799

You don't need to check in at all. You can pick up your tickets at Will Call at the arena at noon on the 8th.

For both days? Bangin'! Man I'm so hyped for this now!!

Why wouldn't you fly out on Sunday night?  With the promotion you check out at 11 am Sunday. 

Yeah you're right, I just saw it said "Friday to Sunday" quick and assumed it had the Sunday night included. D'oh. Brainfart.

One more question though, does that mean I need to check out twice? (I figured I need to check in at both Luxor and Excalibur to get my tickets for both nights)

I wonder if the pit will be rough ,I mean obviously not Slayer rough or if it'll just be old ass GNR fans who can't be bothered with pushing and shoving. Maybe it's because I'm older now but I don't see the appeal of being pushed,shoved and having some kid drag his feet on my head while crowdsurfing,as I attempt to enjoy a show.

I know it's probably not exactly the same but at No Trickery I managed to get the front left of the stage every night with no issues and ample standing room around me - was even able to make friends with the people next to me to hold my place while I ran to the bar!

I've got a spare hotel - 2 Nights at The Excalibur  (Friday Night, Saturday Night) up for grabs if anyone wants to pm me an offer?

(Note this is left over from the mLife deal which I didn't need)

Actually, not sure if this will work, don't I need to check in and show my ID? And also, couldn't one of you rinse my card on room service? Haha

Nevermind... got them both. Thanks mLife deal!

I booked it!!

Now... anyone want 2 nights at the Excalibur for $300?

It shouldn't matter. Money is money!

Fuck it, I'm gonna book.

One other quick thing, I actually fly home on the Sunday evening (thus not needing the Sunday night it forces you to book to get the deal)  will I get charged for early checkout? Or should I just not turn up at the reception desk? Haha

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.

I'm looking for 2 tickets together for both/either nights.   Not really fussed about section though will take Nosebleeds if its with Row A - K. Please Facebook me (Jamie Liam Sanders) rather than on here because I don't check this place as often as I used to.

We should have an award for the "Biggest Drunk at the Vegas Meetup"

Let's go, Dazey.

*ahem* 

None of my friends really get why I'm so pumped about this. I only know a few of you in real life but it's nice to have people who are as excited as I am. While I am going alone to Vegas I won't feel alone at the shows.

Same here mate. Totally can't wait for this, first time flying on my own anywhere. Just figure if I walk round a few bars with a guns shirt I'm bound to get chatting to a few people.

I went to the last week of the 2014 Residency aone and made friends within a day.

I just wish all of the floor was standing. Let's be real here, even the people in seats on the floor wish it was standing.

That was a joke, but I suppose I was trying to get them off a phone. ?

Never fear, I WILL be at both shows. And hopefully GA for at least one of them!

If and when the GA tickets are available (outside of the astronomical VIP packages) I bet you they will be at $350, a hundred dollars more than advertised all week. Ridiculous.

According to the site, although crossed out, they're $250.00

Sky scanner or OPODO for flights

I got flights from London - Dallas(WrestleMania) Dallas - Vegas and Vegas - London for £817 all together

Budgethotels or Agoda for accommodation

I got 5 nights at the Luxor in a deluxe high pyramid room with 2 queen beds for £360. So between 2 people that's only £180 each.

No GA was available. The best bet would be the Silver VIP GA seats. Should have grabbed them last night but they were over $600. Airfare, hotel, tickets...man almost $2,000 to see Guns?

Yeah I ended up with lower level seating for $250 yesterday, night 1. But I'm not satisfied with that. I think Friday is our best bet for GA.

How do we get a password for Friday's pre-sale?

I wish I knew. I think we'll know soon though.

I called Axs.com,they said the Friday pre-sale password will be posted Thursday night or Friday morning on the Guns N Roses website and Facebook. So basically any scalper that wants it can get it. I still think the majority of tickets will go on sale Saturday and be sold out in minutes.

Thanks man. Really hoping to score GA on at least one of the nights. As it'll just be the one ticket I'm hoping it'll be easier!

Also, I'm in Vegas 5th - 11th so if they added a third date either side that's cool with me

anyone from the UK going?

Yeah mate, gonna fly out from manchester

Well I'm seeing WrestleMania 32 on April 3rd and Raw the next night, was gonna fly out to Vegas on 5th April, catch the 2 shows and fly home on the 11th. (maybe 10th). I'll be in Vegas for sure. Just getting tickets is the issue.

What the hell is a GA ticket?

General Admission (otherwise known as standing)

So yeah, what's this second presale on Friday at 10am? And how do I get a code for it?

Please don't ignore lads.

Any idea what the presale on Friday is meant to be? And how to get access for it? Hit me up a PM. I'm not spending $600 on a GA ticket, but apparently I have to do that through VIP if i want to be standing (I could care less about the VIP "swag" or the early entry, would rather hand at the bar for a few hours)

Tickets on stubhub already for $1,500 GA. Wow. Some of the nightrain members are cunts.
