Black Sabbath Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Those are hand painted, I believe, and I don't remember seeing anything anywhere about them being available at the shows at some point. I think a few were just made for the band/entourage. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6lake sa66ath Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 And what gives the impression it's painted by Buhler? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lio Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Yeah, I think I saw a picture with Fernando wearing it at a show or rehearsal. It's just his jacket, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Holographic Universe Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Not in this lifetime. Lol. I love the fact that the band embraced those words. It's pure GNR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on people, I'd like to know what to expect. Seen one in person, don't have one. Bag is just a livenation tote-type thing. No GNR logo at all from what I could see- the sort of bag that comes with free gifts at a trade fair. More just a way to carry the book than anything you'd want to keep. Book inside, with picks inside the front cover. Looked weak compared to the other legs packages, by miles. Book looked the same though broadly.

MillionsOfSpiders Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Not disappointing for me because I really wanted the book, I didn't want the logo bag or cap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lit_up Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I went to the show in Madrid but I couldn´t buy a t shirt of the european tour, does anybody know where can I find it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on people, I'd like to know what to expect. The package are the same like the used to give in the NA leg last year, If you google in images guns n roses package vip It has the same stickers and tickets from old shows in the 80´s and 90´s three guitar picks with the skulls from appetite of axl slash duff A pendant with the gnr logo bullet with the guns... The only thing that I saw different are the pictures of the book and the place where the guitar picks are placed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The book did look great, and I was very envious of that. It had picks mounted on the inside cover and was contained within a box. it may also be that bags are different for different gigs too. Don't be disappointed! There's nothing disappointing about this tour! Trust me, the experience is incedible! I echo the sentiments of not being able to get a shirt from the show I went too. I don't think they are going on sale anywhere online though. Please feel free to correct me though- was gutted I couldn't get one. How many shoes do you attend where you WANT to spend money but can't?! Crazy scenario. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amaninjapan Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 my buddy got to Imola early. like, way early. the gates to Imola opened at 10am and he's already there. says there's no merch booths set up yet lol. let's hope it's just a case of the italians being a little relaxed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6lake sa66ath Posted June 10, 2017 Author Share Posted June 10, 2017 I would suspect merch by midday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amaninjapan Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Yeah thats what Im thinking. I was surprised when he told me they opened the gates at 10am. Maybe because they are expecting a lot of people to drive since Imola has parking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amaninjapan Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Never mind, I think my friend is just clueless. He was outside the entire autodromo and apparently was expecting the merch booths to be there. Told him he probably needs to go into the autodromo first and the merch booths should be outside the staging area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
estrangedtwat Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Hey Aman....you've become this forum's resident expert on lithos over the last few months. What's your count at now? I'd love to hear a complete list...of course you probably have some that are for trade only and not part of the "permanent" collection too. Did it all start in Osaka or were you already collecting the US ones from last year before that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amaninjapan Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 okay so there ARE two lithos! I'm guessing that is a fake crease? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got me some Euro spares for trading but don't know how many in total until I have them in my hands. Don't want to count chickens before they hatch.

F*ck Fear Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Some of the merch is the ugliest shit this band has had since the horrendous 2006 tour merch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xBrownstonex Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Can any of the europeans tell me, wether the merchstands are only inside the venue? Or do they have one outside aswell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem is..... define "venue" and define "outside" For Zurich and Madrid, which were football stadiums, the merch stands were directly outside the stadium. So you didn't need to pass any checkpoint or security or anything to get access to them. They were literally placed on the footpath areas right outside the stadium. But for Imola, the 'stage area' where GNR performs (and the section you need a ticket for) is on a paddock inside the Imola Racing Circuit grounds. So there was essentially a gated entrance you had to go through before going into the crowd/stage area. And it was in that area where the merch was being sold. Once you go into the stage/crowd area, there are no merch stands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
