No good scopes for the opening? Come on, people.

Stapleton damn near got a full house.

Already had 7 groups of people come up and ask for pictures with me. This shit is fun.

Just now, halfday said:

Is Nashville in the eastern time zone?

Central. The normal one.

It's the best I can do haha.

If you guys see a fella with a Slash wig, top hat, metal belt wrapped around the hat, aviators, nose ring, and cut off GNR shirt....feel free to say hi.

By the way, I am not sure if there are any country fans on this forum( I don't expect to be many), but Chris Stapleton is an amazing choice of an opener for Nashville. Correct me if I'm wrong, but a lot of rock fans are country fans(like myself), so I'm hoping he'll receive a good reaction from the crowd if not better than the other openers. It is Nashville we are talking about here, I'm assuming majority of the crowd are country fans anyway. 

Stapleton already has a hell of a following in Nashville and with country music.  I hate country music, or at least what it's become, but Stapleton brings that outlaw style of country with the guitar, amazing vocals, and steel guitar that most new acts can't seem to understand.  Dude was a rocker before he went country but he plays the old 70s-early 90s style country and rips the shit out of it.  I expect the place to be at least 60-70% filled for him.  He won 2 or 3 Grammys last year, after all... based off one album.

Just glad Florida Georgia line isn't opening for them

is it wrong I hope those guys die?  Worst of the worst in "country" music.  At least Stapleton is legit country.

folks... the hourly looks clean as a whistle.  15% rain tops through 11pm as of now.

I doubt it did but I guess its possible. I have noticed more commercials on the radio this week. I also noticed this random girl I know on fb who has to be the cool kid really wants to buy lower level tickets lol so I guess that promotion finally got to her.

or someone offered her some good head.  I'm drunk.  That's my best explanation.

it's currently coming one hell of a thunderstorm here in Nashville.  70mph winds.  Fuck weather.  Weather can suck my balls clean.

Rain for late night back up to 40% haha.

I'm living and dying with his shit.

Dropped the 30% and a "chance" of late night showers.

Damn I saw on the 5pm news they were saying it moved down to 30%. It has been 40% every other time I looked.

I'm going by the Weather Channel app and nothing local so I dunno. Trust them more than anyone else.

Chance of rain and thunderstorms just bumped to 60% for tomorrow night. Goddamit. I've been looking forward to this for over half a year and if the one night I want to be nice weather ends up being shitty I may kill a midget.

latest evening forecast:

"partly cloudy in the evening followed by scattered thunderstorms after midnight.  Low near 70F.  Light winds.  Chance of rain 40%"

After midnight?.... I'd take it.

Weather looks clear for the show right now.

weather channel app still shows "scattered thunderstorms during the evening, then cloudy skies overnight... chance of rain 40%".

But like I said... there's not shits I can find to give about the "evening".  It's 8-12 I'm worried about haha

Hang in there Nashville peeps.  Hopefully the rock gods are looking down on you as they did for us in Cincinnatti as it was predicted to be stormy all day, with the most sever threat during showtime.  But, as I was drinking some beer and enjoying one of the finest queasadillas I've ever had in my life at the Blind Pig across from the venue, I looked at three weather map apps and all three finally showed the all clear for the evening for the first time all day.

just bring a poncho and zip locks to  keep things from getting wet and enjoy the show!

I'm more worried about lightning. They'll stop the show.

all I ask is that the rain holds off.  Nashville's getting called for 50% chance of scattered rain/thunderstorms damn near all day tomorrow.

so fuckin pumped for tomorrow night.  My first time seeing GNR and if Duff and Slash didn't get back with the band I honestly probably wouldn't have ever fooled with seeing em.  Not a diehard, but I know all the words to every song they've been playing on tour and Slash has always been one of my idols.

Be in section 116, row E, seats 1-4.  Taking the wife and her sister and BIL.  Dressing up as Slash, belted top hat, curly wig, aviators, nose ring.  Gonna have a good goddam time.  

I've seen KISS 6 times and Motley 3 times... but I'm hoping this is my favorite concert experience.  Definitely the farthest I've ever sat from any stage.  Usually a middle of the floor kinda guy but shit these tickets were expensive.

I work out at the downtown Y in Nashville and it's less than a mile from Nissan.  Made my way around the stadium yesterday after leaving the gym and got pumped when I saw the stage had already been set up.  Didn't see any GNR banners, though.
