Coma16 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Great! So now India and Jakarta will now be able to see the CD/GH tour as well! I suspect they will hit Australia, Bangkok and maybe even Japan again! Fun times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rock4eva Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 So they've announced a concert on the day the tickets go on sale, isn't that unusual? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maynard Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Endless touring. We will never hear new material from Guns. Good news for the people from Jakarta though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiedHands Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Endless touring. We will never hear new material from Guns. Good news for the people from Jakarta though.They will literally play this show until they've played everywhere in the world, some places 3 or 4 times. They've gotta be exhausting their map...

downzy Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Considering they've confirmed the Jakarta date, any Australians can pretty much assume that Australian dates will be coming soon. You don't travel to the other side of the world to do a few one-off shows. Congrats to GNR fans in that part of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulMonster Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Great news! ON time they play Indonesia! Looking forward to having the Indian dates confirmed as well as the announcement of further gigs in Japan and Australia/New Zealand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highend88 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Does anybody know how can I get a backstage pass?Are you an attractive female with good oral skills?Haha good one. No, this will be my first GNR concert as I'm from Jakarta. I don't have enough money to travel all over the world like you guys. So it is once in a lifetime opportunity for me.

You don't travel to the other side of the world to do a few one-off shows. Congrats to GNR fans in that part of the world.I'm in New Zealand, we require a passport to go to Australia, New Zealand is not part of Australia its a totally different country. If they don't come here we will need to travel to Australia.If they're playing Jakarta, and they're likely to play Australia, chances are they'll play New Zealand. As I said in my post, it makes little economic sense to send your gear, crew and bandmates to the other side of the world without playing as many shows to make up these costs. It's why few bands play those markets. The costs are so high that a large fan base is required. I wouldn't worry too much about having to go to Australia if that is what happens. I'd be shocked if they played Australia and skipped New Zealand.Does anybody know how can I get a backstage pass?Are you an attractive female with good oral skills?Haha good one. No, this will be my first GNR concert as I'm from Jakarta. I don't have enough money to travel all over the world like you guys. So it is once in a lifetime opportunity for me.Honestly, getting backstage is likely a big waste of your time. Most backstages have different zones of clearance, so even if you get to one section you'll likely be bared from the sections where you'd meet band members (particularly Axl). If you're dead set on meeting band members to get autographs and whatnot, your best bet is to wait outside the arena or find out what hotel they're staying at (a few mygnrforum members had success this way in Europe). When GNR played here in Toronto, Canada, youtube clips made it fairly clear what hotel they were staying at. Having ridden in Axl's limo bus back to his hotel, I know they don't take him through a private entrance in the back of the hotel. If you time it right, you should be able to get a pic or autograph by hanging around the front door. Mind you, how important is this to you that you'd waste a lot of hours on a fluke chance?

Bumble's Bridge Pickup Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 And tickets already on sale the day the concert is announced? IMO would've been better to let people think at least a few days before opening sales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But thanks for the advice. I will find out locally which hotel they stay in. But still I NEED those backstage pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
