You're correct about the standing on the pitch, no seats. I'll post more info when I get it. Awesome I think they'll pull at least 50k to each east coast/NZ date. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliexpress Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Telstra are showing presale as 23rd, not 19th. Looks like it's Nightrain and VIP only on Friday. Incase anyone was banking on 19th through them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know where you are coming from cause OZ has a big gnr fan base. So its better to take no chances im still having 2 minds about the nightrain membership. I just dont have extra 45USD to throw it away. That money could be used for transport/food etc etc while im in Japan. So well lets hope for the best I'm now back in Sydney and I see nightrain presale and VIP go on sale tomorrow. In San Fransisco I was first in line at 3pm, gates opened at 5:30pm. Yes I stood there for 2.5 hrs waiting. While waiting I watched at the VIP people enter through their private door at 3pm. I was fucking jealous. When doors opened at 5:30 I got through security and ran to the pit. The entire Slash side was already taken! I was pissed so I just went over to duff side and got the rail. Yay best spot as Slash moved a lot and he even pocked his tough out at me - see my video below. So tomorrow I think I will just buy VIP Pit tickets, so I get the rail slash side. Holding your spot for 5hrs was hard. They played at 8pm. Here's me screaming my head off. I will upload Coma and Nov rain soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone with past experiences be able to shed some light for me? I thought the NT presale was awful. I bought tickets the second it started for the Orlando show and ended up with seats all the way in the back lower level. Then when the general sale started I bought two more tickets, this time lower level much closer to the stage. I sold my original on TM for face value and lost the service charge fees. But, I really wanted pit. 11 days before the Philly show I checked tickemster and they had Pit! I bought those pit tickets and flew to Philly. Well, after being in the pit in Philly there was no way I couldn't be in the pit for Orlando. I checked everyday for pit tickets on Ticketmaster and nothing until about 5 days before the show,just for a second, 2 tix popped up and I grabbed them. I wanted to sell or trade off the two I bought in the resale, I listed them face value but no one bought them. The day of the show I tried to transfer them to someone on here for some shirts but they took down the transfer link before the show so I lost almost $600 on those tickets after fees. Moral of the story: do what it takes to get pit tickets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you'll have that same problem with the Australian shows though, as I imagine any 'pit' will just be to divide the crowd on the floor for safety reasons so will be much bigger than the pits in the states Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way I could buy one for San Fran was to pay Stubhub $400 USD. Ticketmaster had none for sale, only seats yet Stubhub had a shitload of Pit tickets.

Kyles Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Just so everyone knows at the San Fran concert, the girl next to me was not allowed to bring her GoPro in or pepper spray (Aus doesn't have this so no worries). I was allowed to bring in my compact camera in. DSL cameras are not allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will make it to Sydney at the very least if they don't play NZ, but hopefully I'll be seeing them in Auckland I want pit tickets, however now that oz is announced and not NZ, i know I need to get in quick and I'm unsure if I should buy Sydney tickets, or wait for the Nz announcement, (if Nz is even going to be announced at all),???????

A GNR news site posted Japan and Australia dates today, with NZ at the end with a venue to be confirmed. I also asked the TEG Dainty facebook page if I should book tix for OZ or wait for NZ, and they said "Any new announcements will be on our website and social media " I am in the same boat as you, but these things have got me holding out for an NZ announcement now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, If they're doing festivals as well I dont really expect anything untill December. Its only a few months ahead every time. I think the largest gap is with the Aussie dates now, announce mid August, shows end February. 6 1/2 months. I dont see them playing Europe before end May, so that would mean early in November at best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I was planning to go to Japan and was interested in the dates so I could book my flight tickets and hotels, but now the problem is that in order to buy the show tickets for Japan, you need to have a Japanese Credit Card and I don't have that.

Słash Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) A big thanks to @aliexpress, @cremefraiche @Amir and others for helping me out and putting up with my crap. I know I can be annoying, but thanks for updating, I was waiting for the Japan shows since a long time, but sadly it seems its not possible, I have my fingers crossed that something works out, but well it seems Europe will be the best option for me. Whenever I plan, something has to go wrong. I hope in Europe they do solo shows and not every show is a Festival.

I'm sure at the very least there will be some huge standalone show(s) in Europe somewhere. Wembley maybe? Hope you get to see them soon mate! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
