Saltzy Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) We're all buddy-buddy here until Axl tosses the mic into the GA pit and we attack each other like rabid dogs trying to grab it. In advance, I think it would be easiest if you all just let me have it. I really don't see any reason for us all to fight over it, right everyone? I'm glad we could all come together and agree on this. Koombaya everyone. Koombaya. Edited March 23, 2016 by Saltzy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subtle Signs Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I wonder if the pit will be rough ,I mean obviously not Slayer rough or if it'll just be old ass GNR fans who can't be bothered with pushing and shoving. Maybe it's because I'm older now but I don't see the appeal of being pushed,shoved and having some kid drag his feet on my head while crowdsurfing,as I attempt to enjoy a show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's probably not exactly the same but at No Trickery I managed to get the front left of the stage every night with no issues and ample standing room around me - was even able to make friends with the people next to me to hold my place while I ran to the bar!

There will be more diehards in two weeks. It's going to get nuts and I will not be surprised if it gets rough on people trying to push towards the front. No way anyone will be saving spots. I just hope there is some level of respect for everyone that is there to enjoy the show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you're right, I just saw it said "Friday to Sunday" quick and assumed it had the Sunday night included. D'oh. Brainfart. One more question though, does that mean I need to check out twice? (I figured I need to check in at both Luxor and Excalibur to get my tickets for both nights) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtle Signs Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I can almost picture some skinny jeans wearing kid with the black rimmed hipster glasses trying to push past a large GNR fan that has waited a quarter century for this moment and flown from halfway across the world. After the third attempt, the old school fan knocks out the kid and secures his place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah...this isn't Metallica in the 80's....most people in the pit will be us...same people you see here posting everyday....and if you happen to see Black Sabbath on the rail, out of control drunk, just tell Axl Justin Bieber is in the audience and it should take care of itself.

You can pick up your tickets at Will Call at the arena at noon on the 8th. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and friends used to do shit like that at shows all the time lol. We would do stuff like all have lawn seats, but pay to upgrade on seat. One person would go in, put that ticket in their wallet, throw it over the railing to the next guy and so on and so forth, and before ya knew it thered be 6 of us with decent seats lol... granted this would be much simpler then that lol. Lemme know what you decide to go for. Edited March 24, 2016 by challenger70rt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At many venues ,you sometimes get a better,less muddied sound further back so between that and not dealing with being pushed ,I'm OK.

Popular Post willl Posted March 24, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted March 24, 2016 I'm in too now. See you all in Vegas!! I've had an itinerary planned for weeks but wasn't paying £250 to be seated at the back of the arena, but now I'm in the pit and have a spare ticket to sell which covers the majority of my own costs (which I'll prob spend on a night 2 seat ticket) Thank you MGM! My travel plans attached to show you all how f'n hardcore I am haha 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that would fuck us up is if they use different colors or something for the bands. Guess we'll just have to play it by ear.

I've been in plenty of pits in my day. It's a young man's game... Or at least young at heart! Plus, my ol' lady will be with me. She's definitely not down with pit action...
