Too bad I’m not gonna see much of the city. Have a great time tomorrow! Glad to hear you made it 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystery Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Since its part of the setlist now, when did the Blues become Street of Dreams? Was it when Chinese Democracy released? Was it still the Blues on the 2006-07 tours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once 4/5hrs before the gig start making your way to the gig. Excessive amount of time for Tuesday in Dublin imo but if you are nervous that will give you loads of time. As much as I don't care I also wish I could see this show 😄 I might fly and see them at the end of the year when I'm free! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say alot more that that. Capacity 30000, GC atleast 5000. Slane GC was massive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly, it was called The Blues all the way until they released the tracklisting of Chinese Democracy, in the fall or late summer of 2008, and it was dubbed Street of Dreams. Never really liked that name change. "The Blues" sounds so simple and straightforward, iconic even, whereas "Street of Dreams" sounds a bit too... blah, I guess. It's a bit too try-hardish name.

"Street of dreams" sounds like a Winger song And it's a prominent line in Whitesnake's "Here I go again". "The Blues" was much a much better title, like the music, it got worse with time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancelottie Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 The VIP check-in point at Grange Road, I think. Because Grange Road Centre is on the other side of the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancelottie Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 And the men in yellow, at what I think is the main entrance, is not very nice. They said no one are allowed to enter before 4. I told them have an Early Entry ticket. They didn’t get it. Then I said «I’m a VIP». Then they told me were to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you get in, you exchange the ticket for a wrist band to gain entry to the gold circle. Dont think you will get your stub back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a while it was referred to as "Stardust" I'm sure. Not officially or anything but in alleged leaked tracklists before Chinese was released 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. I think there could have been a compromise where the song is called Street of Dreams (The Blues) much like Locomotive (Complicity) or Pretty Tied Up (The Perils of Rock n' Roll Decadence).

In the chats from 2008, I think Axl specifically said "The Blues" was just a band working title, and he wanted to save a name like that for a song that was actually based more in the blues. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
