GnR Chris Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 I don't really enjoy ballpark concerts, but a marriage between two of my loves: The Cubs and GNR. I'm looking forward to this. Last time I saw GNR at Wrigley, it was day 1 of a five-day concert experience that ended with Metallica at The Metro. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first concert at Wrigley, looking forward to my first ballpark concert experience. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibson87 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Debating whether or not I should buy a cheaper floor seat or wait until the middle of next week to see if pit tickets will drop in price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already purchased pit St.Louis tickets the day of release,and now bummed I could have saved almost $200. Was hoping Wrigley pit tickets would drop a little more..🤞not sure how long to wait..

6lake sa66ath Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Any guesses on the city theme for the merch for this one they haven’t done yet, think they’ve covered the sports except White Sox or Blackhawks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended up getting a floor seat right behind the pit for about $210. Pit tickets were like $739 at the cheapest when I checked this morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkLotus1111 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 I'm considering going. I have a question. Do all concerts at this venue end at 11 PM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floor seats behind the pit are in the $160 range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k12 Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Looking at the temperature it is supposed to drop considerably between 7PM (91 degrees) and 10PM (79 degrees) so it might not be that bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have many of these in Europe and certainly I don't remember ever seeing a concert taking place in a ballpark. So I'm curious how the show or experience of it is different...

Can’t speak for Chris, but there are usually large patches of empty spaces or weird viewing angles at baseball stadiums. Football stadiums are more conventionally shaped. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are usually large gaps where sound can escape in baseball stadiums meaning the sound and atmosphere will most definitely not be the same as a stadium that's fully enclosed. I was at Hyde Park this year and i far prefer stadium shows because the sound bounces around and overall just improves the atmosphere.

VeeR Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Here is the discussion. I don't doubt Axl is there, but this is more than likely a false alarm if anyone is hoping for even more new music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck it, new song every week! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
