So far I'm only seeing Foo Fighters in January, but I might get tickets for QOTSA, Iron Maiden, and maybe Coldplay. Hoping for a Pearl Jam tour sometime next year as well. 

Got QOTSA tickets!

Merry Christmas Everyone!! Hope you all have a great Christmas and New Year!

Hoping for a New Zealand show!

I just checked setlist.fm and it said 'The General'... the excitement only lasted for a second  

Bit late to the thread (as always) but I really like Perhaps, probably my favorite of the new releases so far. It's also awesome to see how popular the single is outside of hardcore Guns fans, considering how much attention ABSURD and Hard Skool got. Great song!

Bummer for Ozz

I think it’ll be Aerosmith, Rage, or Bon Jovi

Foos are cool but would be kind of lame just cause they’re everywhere

Either way, big blow to the festival

Aerosmith / Bon Jovi would be cool, but compared to the likes of Metallica, GNR, Tool, etc they're a bit more poppier. 

I highly doubt the Foos will be playing - they've already got a show in Phoenix on the 5th and Austin on the 7th. 

I hope there's an Australia / NZ tour... would love to see them, and they've played here for every album-supporting tour. Fingers crossed.

Is it any good? I'm one of the weird ones that highly rated their last album Med at Mid their best since Nothing Left to Lose. 

It's a VERY good album. Their best since Wasting Light IMO

If it means anything, Fantano gave the album an 8. 

Got tickets to see the Foo Fighters in January. Super excited for that!

Excited to see the setlist for this show! Hope whoever's going has a great time. 

I finally watched the third Fantastic Beasts, and I thought it was pretty good.

That's subjective. If you don't like it, don't attend. If many people agree with you, it will die out naturally. Based on reviews from the Australian leg last year, the shows are still great. We will see what happens. 

I can confirm that! I went to the show in Auckland and it was one of the best concerts I've ever attended  

Late to this thread, but I'll just say that as far as first nights go, this was pretty good. Awesome setlist and the band sounded reasonable for the first night. Looking forward to the rest of the shows on this tour.

It's funny looking back at the earlier messages on the thread with everyone being so pessimistic, and then getting PTU, Bad Obsession, Anything Goes, Down On The Farm etc, etc.

It's strange that Carrie is opening some shows, but only because she can fill big venues on her own. She's a level above the other openers as far as popularity goes. I wouldn't go see her on her own, but I wouldn't mind seeing her open for GNR.

I kinda wish they had multiple openers at each show though. Alice In Chains are opening the show I'm going to, and they're good, but I've seen them a few times already (3 times opening for GNR in Vegas/Seattle). GNR, AIC and Dirty Honey or The Warning would be a great lineup though.

Yeah I agree. I was looking at Reddit and there were quite a few posts criticising the choice of both Carrie and the Pretenders. 

Awesome that AIC and Dirty Honey are opening for the Guns at some shows. It does seem strange that Carrie Underwood is supporting some of those shows, because I'm not sure there are many who enjoy both in the same night. 

Listened to But Here We Are, the new FF record. Really, really good, and a very emotional piece of work. Great album. 

Went to see the Pink Floyd Experience Thursday night at the Bruce Mason Centre. Phenomenal show, excellent seats, and a good venue. They did the Dark Side of the Moon album in it's entirety and a "greatest hits" set, which featured a lot of material from Momentary Lapse of Reason.

No more concerts scheduled at the moment, hoping that by July we get some summer stadium shows. Considering going to P!nk, but tickets are quite expensive so I'm unsure. 

I've also been looking at ticket sales, and the stadium shows in Europe seem to be selling pretty well, a lot better compared to NA shows.

Any predictions for setlist changes?

Hopefully they bring back Locomotive and finally play PTU and TAY. 

Looking forward to Foo Fighters, really enjoyed both "Rescued" and "Under You", so I'm excited for this album.

Also excited for GVF, I'm liking their new singles and I'm interested in what the album will sound like. 

And also hoping for a new GNR album... 

Saw Counting Crows last night. I would highly recommend, they put on an amazing show.
