Does anyone have video of Axl talking between songs about the times we’re living in and how all you can count on now is the human spirit? It was one of his more optimistic insights and he ended it with a funny GNRfm quip

Someone royally fucked up Madagascar backtrack vocal timing. Never encountered something this off with them.  

This is my thirteenth GNR show since the reunion (I am a lucky boy). That’s the best vocals Axl has had on Patience yet. 

Anyone know what time they are scheduled to take the stage? 

Please! Trying to see if I can make it 

Desperately want to go to this show. Sold my floor tix. Get covid tested 3x a week for work and can’t afford to fly Delta. Thinking of buying some nose bleeds and posting up with a friend as far away as we can get from the crowds.

Was somewhat surprised to see that’s it’s nearly a sellout.When I checked a month or so ago on Ticketmaster it was more like 50/55 percent sold tickets.

I believe they moved up the stage so that’s less of the stadium is available for seating. Common tactic. My seats were upgraded to floor about a month ago, but alas had to sell 

Got my tickets to SoFi!

So, I just bought 2 VIP tickets for this show for $550, total.

Not exactly sure how that is remotely possible.

Wow that’s a steal. I wonder if they discounted them?

Yikes, this is why I don't come to the message boards anymore.  Too many people wallowing in their own misery and negativity.  The band was tight as fuck tonight and Axl was great 90% of the time. They played a 3 hour set and I guarantee everybody there had a killer time.  I'm so psyched I got to see 90% of the show, and i had a great time watching one of the best rock bands of all time deliver an awesome performance.  I feel bad for those who can't find enjoyment in a moment like this.  Meh

Amen.

Amazes me how critical a group of rabid, hat in hand, fans can be over a 57yr olds weight and voice during a THREE HOUR set. Sure the band could be more philanthropic towards fans...but would they even appreciate it? 

I’m told doors open at 8pm and show starts at 9pm.

You think they might hand out free tickets at the door tomorrow night if the venue isn't full? Like they did at the Apollo.

The Apollo show was a Sirius XM invite only concert. No tickets were sold. If anyone was given entry at the door, and not invited, it's bc some of the industry execs that were invited didn't show and Sirius wanted to do the right thing.

I was at the Black Keys show at the Wiltern last night and this happened to me. The issue wasn’t stubhub’s fault at all. Live Nation/Ticketmaster apparently made all of the tickets non-transferable, “rotating” the bar codes on every ticket so that they didn’t match once they were sold to a third party. Hundreds of people who bought real tickets that people re-sold on stubhub and other third party sites were turned away at the door. Once the set was about to start at 9:15 and they realized the theater was still half empty, they started letting us in. But a whole lot of people had already left by then. Point is, check your tickets to see if they say “non-transferable.” If so, they will do this at the palladium as well, and if you sell tickets and the person who bought yours gets rejected at the door, stubhub will refund the buyer and charge you for the full price of the ticket you listed plus a fee. If you buy on stubhub be prepared for this kind of situation. Maybe even call stubhub customer service first and ask if they have a read on this since it seems like it’s becomming common place with LNTM shows

You're assuming here. They will not do this show for free. They will be compensated for this show. And it's silly to assume that they won't make extra coin for this show. There is is not someone saying, oh, and by the way, you will do this show because you have a contract with us. That might happen with some newcomer, but certainly not with an act who's last tour grossed 400 mio dollars.

Of course they are getting paid, as they should. I think you missed my point.

Because that doesn't give them any extra coin. But having a special small show for Citibank will. They are not in the business of doing something for the fans. If you want that, you should go check out Metallica.

I don't think you understand how the touring business works. This is a Livenation show. When band signs up to tour with them they have to do certain shows. Citi Bank / Livenation have an agreement to deliver concerts to Citi customers to incentivize people to join their bank. GNR likely agreed to do this show when they signed up to do the new legs. It's not like Axl/Slash/Duff had a call on a Monday morning to conspire a way to involve a credit card to get a few extra dollars. I can understand your general feeling that the band could do more for fans (I agree) but try to be reasonable and factor in the realities of the world.

If by some miracle they play something "new" I wonder if they'll do that 'lock up cell phones in a bag' thing? Easier in a smaller venue like the Vault.

Nah. 5000 person capacity. I think that's way too complex to execute. 

Can anyone decipher the parameters of this sale? Does anyone know if Citi members flip their Citi Sound Vault series tickets? I am dying to get to this show (we all are) and I'm based in LA. Wondering if it's worth joining Nightrain for a small small chance at "a limited number of tickets" allocated for members...
