Amir Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Fuck it, bought another ticket, I'll be going to both Paris shows as I reckon he'll change up the setlist from night to night like he usually does when he plays the same city 2 nights in a row.If only GNR did the same... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Bird Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Does anybody know how GNR did the last time they were in the UK? I think they booked the same venues, but did they sold them out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Does anybody know how GNR did the last time they were in the UK? I think they booked the same venues, but did they sold them out?London wasn't same venue: GNR's played O2 in 2010 and 2012, 2 nights teach time. 2010 they pretty much sold out both nights; 2012 they sold out first night but 2nd was about half full.Slash is playing Wembley Arena this year, which has a total capacity of 12,500 vs ~20,000 for The O2. For the GNR gigs, though, there were only 28,000 tickets total for both nights, so I'm guessing the tickets available for Wembley Arena are probably around 10k, and it's only 1 nights (when he played a smaller venue at Brixton Academy in 2012, he did 2 nights in a row, and had also played Hammersmith Apollo earlier that year).

Tom2112 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 There are estimates of 7000 people, 9000-10000 people, and almost sold out.Capacity of the arena is 14500.So the range of the estimates is pretty wide.Definitely not near sold out, the stage was moved forward making the standing space much less than normal, it was a great turn out though, surprised how many came out. I think guns had about 9,500 to 10,000 last time they played and the standing was much bigger. between 7 and 9 if I was to put a firm guess on it.

gunsfanoldie Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I'm sure these shows are excellent. Really can't wait to hear this new stuff live. Wish it wasn't gonna take Slash 8 years to come back to the US for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvH Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Dear god the show kicked my fucking ass. It was my fifth time seeing Slash, and probably the best overall. No boring Patience or Starlight, no 10min Godfather solo but fucking MEAN BONE. Oh my god. Those guys are playing better than ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crowd was great, people were pumped for Anastasia and singing along to World on Fire.EvH, you going tomorrow as well?

Nosaj Thing Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I love the fact that he's using a goldtop Les Paul for songs like SCOM again. That's a Slash trademark right there.Can't wait to see the half man half beast live! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
