Guns N' Roses @ Vegas - May 21-June 7


Recommended Posts

I don't understand why Axl wanted the Guns N' Roses name for himself only to release one album and slowly become a Vegas act. Sure, Chinese Democracy is a great album and the current band is cool, but I just think that he could've done so much more. Things he has done post 1993, could've been done under the moniker of Axl Rose. I just don't get it. It's kind of sad in a way. To some fans at least.

I have thought this too myself...I have seriously wondered if this is Axl's "revenge" to Slash and leaving him so Axl will try to ruin the legacy of GnR with this circus act :shrugs:

I'm going to one show (6/7)... my boys and I go to vegas every year (11 years running) and this year it coincides with the residency.

People need to get over this "Vegas Residency = doomsday for the band" scenario. One day ("soon" or otherwise), we will hear new music from Axl. Why does everyone care what the media thinks of the band nowadays? To me, music is personal and I could give a crap what people on Metal Sludge think. It wasn't that long ago, before ChiDem, was released ('03 - '06), that most of us were hoping for any word that the band was even active. I'm just glad we have an active (albeit touring) band. When Gn'R tours, we get to hear comments from the band, stories of Axl biting security guards and crazy stories about strip club incidents - I love it!

I wanna hear new music (and the unreleased ChiDem stuff) just as much as everyone else, but for everyone bashing these shows, I can tell you that it's going to be a blast... Nothing like drinking a few whiskeys, shooting some dice, hanging out with some cool people and then going to listen to some of your favorite music live. I can think of a lot worse ways to spend a Saturday night.

No worries, glad to know that is available. Thinking I will go for that instead. Do I buy a Nightrain membership to get them now or try my luck for Friday?!

I don't think you need a Nightrain membership today, just create an account for the page? At least I think that's what the tweet means, I haven't tried.

You are correct. Glad I double-checked.

Getting stuff sorted out and should be buying tickets in a bit :)

Big Announcement: Third European tour, No Trickery!

Looking forward the 2016 residency!

I got an email from management last night saying nothing confirmed for Europe at the moment.

it will, eventually...

Wait till they have sold there residency tickets. I reckon guns could be back in sept/oct for a mini tour. Like 2010.

Ordered tickets for the last 3 shows. On the order they show up separately, but each has the same sku, but in the cart before I submitted it they did have the different event numbers in the link, so I'm guessing it went through fine and I'm not going to get 9 tickets for the same show :lol:

It fuckin' better go through fine after what it just cost me :max:

Due to overwhelming demand? Where from exactly?

The fans that are going to sell out these shows?

You honestly think these will be sell out shows? They've already opened up the presale to anyone that visits their page.

It's highly unlikely Gn'R sells all 36,000 tickets or whatever the exact number is. The shows will be full though as casinos give a lot of these tickets away to big spending gamblers. The Hard Rock makes money from people gambling and staying in their hotel, not by selling $50 Gn'R tickets. Giving them away means there will be a good mix of die-hard fans and casual ones who were given the tickets for free.

I can see why someone who is flying in would wanna buy these tickets in advance as opposed to getting them for half price on the day of the show from Craigslist.
