I got the full Philly show flac/alac. May give you a link, if you want. 

The way I read it I thought Gibbo has 4 or 5 other shows in that quality. I have the Philly show. Thanks for offering though!

I was the one who brought that Philadelphia master and matched the 24bit audio. I brought 4 or 5 of them. I would post them but I don't have a channel anymore. 

Could you post them on the other Tube?

I really enjoy listening to this one

Jesus.

 

That's insane.  Holy shit man.  I can't believe this stuff.  Any chance you'll open a museum to the public?

 

Also, since you may be the only guy that would know....any idea if they made a t-shirt for Cleveland 10-26-2017 with the lithograph art?  I've never seen evidence that it exists.

I was at the show and they did make a Cleveland litho shirt (unless somebody can prove me wrong). I remember because I was deciding whether to get one or not. I passed and got the litho instead.

A little while after the show, I saw one for sale on eBay but it was too expensive. It was an official one, NOT a bootleg.

Everybody - A WARNING

Some guy on Ebay from Thailand just listed Bangkok "lithos"

https://www.ebay.com/itm/142581432157

Under the description of "Original/Reproduction" he has written "Master artwork published in Thailand" which to me makes it sound like he's trying to pass it off as original.

HOWEVER THEY ARE FAKES. He has listed the size as 18" x 13" but I have both Bangkok lithos and the real lithos are MUCH larger than that. I don't want to list the exact dimensions just in case these people making fakes are reading and want to try to improve on their fakes but the real lithos are multiple inches larger than these pieces of shit.

Update: "This listing was ended by the seller because the item was lost or broken."

Nope... fake t-shirts too. Most are Gildan. 

Great... Well at least I know now for the future.

We've discussed it a lot.  The available images are just too low-rez to look good printed out, so you'd need a really high quality scan of an actual poster to make a good reproduction.

Or have access to a print shop like that guy Warpig on ebay that prints fakes and fleeces people outta their money.

Wow I'm surprised. His stuff looks really legit. I hope his shirts are real, or at least look real in person because I recently bought one of his..

I have a question just out of curiosity. I was thinking and I know its probably frowned upon but has anyone printed out lithograph artwork just for themselves to have if they can't get one or just like a specific one? I know to some it might seem completely pointless, but if it turns out good, then more power to ya, right?. I find it difficult to spot the differences between a real and a fake one besides the obvious numbering. Either that or I should get my eyes checked! And if you think of asking, No. I have not purchased any lithographs from ebay or anywhere else online

Guns N' Roses put on an amazing show last night. During the show when the house lights were on, I looked around and to me it looked sold out. Definitely more people than the Axl/DC show last September. When I got to the arena at 6PM, I walked all the way around it so see if they had the merch truck but unfortunately they didn't. It would've been really convenient for a lot of people I think to buy what they wanted outside and take it back to their vehicle instead of having to sit/stand with all their stuff during the show. So once the lobby doors opened we had to wait till about 6:30 when they started to scan tickets to officially let people in. Not to sound materialistic but I had only one thing on my mind at this point, the lithograph. I saw it from a distance and from that far away, it just looked like a black piece of paper with a white border. Once I got my ticket scanned I rushed over to the merch stand and as I was going over there, I couldn't help but see a classic ebayer walking away with a smile on his face with a huge stack of lithos in his arms. That got me really discouraged for someone like me who actually wants one for real to display and appreciate. So when it was finally my turn I asked the lady if they still had lithographs left.. She said YES! lol I got one and a tour shirt and the regular concert poster with all the dates on it. 

Right next to the merch stand was my section, which was 100! I didn't have to walk far at all. I was row 3 seats 9,10. My dad and I were literally dead center behind the soundboard. And to top it off, the two rows in front of us were empty the entire show! There were security guards on each side of the section that didn't let people sit in any seat in those two rows in front of us. So us lucky people in row 3 were basically in row one with a damn good view of everything that was going on. We totally lucked out on that.

The Guns N' Roses performance was so good I didn't want it to end. It almost seemed like it wasn't going to either! THEIR energy on stage was at 100% from start to finish. The fans energy from my point of view? I'll get to that shortly. I made sure to check the time as soon as they started, which was at 7:43 all the way to 11:00! I sang along to just about every song. The obvious standouts were Jungle, Live and Let Die, Civil War, Sweet Child, NR, KOHD, Nightrain and PC. The place just went crazy for those songs. As for the Chinese Democracy songs, I only like the title track and better. That's about it. There's a lot better CD songs that I like (no pun intended) that they could've played, but they would've still fell flat with the fans.  I was surprised but at the same time I wasn't by how many people I saw leaving the floor and walking up the stairs to the concession area when Axl came out for TIL and then they played prostitute right after that? From my point of view, almost everybody was standing still and there were hardly any cameras recording that I could see. And that goes for Madagascar too. Basically resting songs for the casual fan. Wichita Lineman was well received by the crowd I thought. But I really heard the crowd roar when Slash and Fortus played the intro to Black Hole Sun. They loved it and so did I, and I couldn't wait for them to play it.

Overall, I had the best time and most memorable experience I could possibly have and I would without a doubt go again the next time they come back if they do. But in my opinion, this band should think about re-naming this tour. Yes, its titled the "Not In This Lifetime Tour", but in all reality, its really the Chinese Democracy 2.0 or Not In This Chinese Democracy or whatever kind of mashup they would come up with. CD is their most recent album and most bands who tour off a new record typically play about 5 songs from that new record, which is what they're basically doing. I know they wouldn't do this but it they wanted to somewhat please the fans to their liking, maybe play some better known CD songs? If their is any? OR just play lesser know Guns songs. Like for example, it would've been so fitting for them to play The Garden when they played AT The Garden.

Well, I guess that's the end of my review/rant!

P.S. I wanted post two pictures inside this post but I don't know how to do that anymore.

I'll type up my experience sometime tomorrow. It was a great show!

I saw a commercial on TV this afternoon advertising for tomorrow nights show, adding to my excitement! I'm leaving my house between 4:30 and 5:00. Takes me about an hour to get there. I just hope I'll be able to get a lithograph, but we'll see. My dad is going with me too and he's just as excited as I am. But I know for sure he's gonna be a bit disappointed just like the casual fans will be at how many CD songs and covers they're gonna play lol

Thanks for the heads up!

I was aware however I don't want to risk paying more than I should if I happen to get slapped with customs fees on this end!

Yeah I know what you mean. I want to get their $10 tourbook, but I was surprised that the shipping costs more than the tourbook. It must be top-notch packaging!

Actually I received a shipping notification yesterday. It doesn't say what is being shipped and there may be multiple shipments but I do have something on the way.

I got the same email as well.

Actually, it was ISE with Duff on vocals

They might've went live at different times? Because when I tuned in they were definitely playing the intro to New Rose. I remember because Frank was messing up the drum intro

I did. But it was only for a minute. They were playing New Rose.

Interesting choice of venue

Not to much detail thanks! I've been to the Q a million times as Cleveland is my main concert going city as I live in Cuyahoga Falls. I also was at Axl/DC there I'm definitely waiting for the public on sale to try and get pit tickets Just because I really want this to be a different experience to the last show. I saw GN'R at the Q when Slash and Duff weren't there twice and both times in general admission and it was amazing. So cool to be so close to them. I even touched Ron's guitar strings as he held it up to the audience at the end of Paradise City. I don't know why it would be so hard to get general admission this time. I know the demand is much higher now then back then but I would assume anyone who really wanted to see them would have gone to Pittsburgh like you and I did. IDK just really stupid that we cant get GA with the pre-sale. I'm either gonna get pit tickets or probably like the cheapest seats possible. If im gonna be paying 230 a ticket I want the pit experience it's so much different than even just being pretty close in seats. 

To give you an Idea, I checked out the tickets for the Chicago show and pit tickets are $650 each.

Did you get pi tickets? How much do pit tickets cost for this show if you know? I also saw them in Pittsburgh but from afar. I would love to go again but maybe only if I can get pit tickets this time because it may be the same exact show. Also if I re-sign up for the nightrain do you believe I would be almost guaranteed to be able to purchase 2 pit tickets?

I got tickets in Section 100 which will be a similar view I had in Pittsburgh, except the Q Arena is obviously smaller than a football field. So for me, it will feel like I'm much closer. I don't know if you've ever got tickets to an event at the Q before because its a different setup vs Ticketmaster or Live Nation. In my experience, I've always gone the pre-sale route. Me personally, I don't care for the process when it comes to the Q because for presales, I cant choose the actual seats I want unlike TM or LN. I can only choose the section and then it picks the best seats in that section. It happened when I bought Queen tickets in February, and Guns yesterday. So once I choose the section I wanted, I took the seats it gave me because I didn't want to try again and end up sitting way towards the back.  But I have seen for other concerts that are more close to their show day at the Q, It does let you pick your own seat. I was able to do that for Axl/DC at the Q. It would just be alot easier if the Q were partners with TM or LN so the customer has a better experience in buying tickets.

And to answer you question!, I've checked out the options via the Q's website. And from what I've seen, they're only offering floor seats right now. Even when I click on the ViP PACKAGES link on GN'R's tour page it takes me to the same page. My best guess would be if you want pit tickets, you may have to wait until the public on-sale, or unless somebody else knows how to get them right now.

Sorry if I went into too much detail!!

Just bought my tickets for the show! It will be my 2nd time seeing Guns with the first time being in Pittsburgh last year. I'm looking forward to a great show!!
