F*ck Fear Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 I hate presales. What the fuck gives certain people the right over others to get their tickets first. Everyone should get the same sale date.With respect I think you're missing the point.Merck/Madison/Dark/myteron(and anyone else concerned) has given the REAL GNR FANS an opportunity to purchase tickets to see the return of Axl/Guns N' Roses - and whilst this wont fully deny ticket pro's the chance to sell on at a HUGE margin/mark-up, if nothing else its a nice touch and good PR for the fans not having to pay $300 - $500 for a ticket!UK SUBS.Ok I did miss the point. See I didn't catch the whole Merck and forum mods etc organizing it. I thought it was just another pre sale that ever show has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uzeurilluzion Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 From what I read on HTGTH, this is how some presales have worked in the past.Everyone who qualifies will be given a password. Then approx 24 to 48 hours before the tickets go onsale there will be a 2hour window where you can submit your request with the password through ticketmaster. Then it will either say you got em or they are sold out.This is how many pre-sales have worked.I'm not saying thats how this one is goin to work though.

brobot Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Well, there is one other concern. I want to take a train from Dover, NJ to NYC but on Monday the last one leaves at around 1:30. Think the show will be over by then? In most cases you would but with GNR you never know............I seriously doubt it. In your case, you might want to drive to a parking lot in Jersey near one of the ferry terminals and take the ferry over. I'm not sure how late they run though, because I haven't used those in years. If all else fails, you can take a cab back to the parking lot though.As far as being concerned about walking from 34th to 42nd: the area around 42nd/Broadway is the middle of a huge tourist zone and there is a lot of police presence. Also note that violent crime in NY has dropped like 50% over the past several years. In addition to that, 2am isn't that late in NYC - there will still be other people around. Not to give you a false sense of security or anything, but it's really not too bad in Manhattan, especially in that area. But to be on the safe side, just flag down a cab if you're more comfortable with it. Or if you take the subway, ride in the car where the conductor is.

KBear Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 GA is the way to go, it is just not the same from a seat. your going to be standing the whole time any way (or least i hope you will have the respect to stand the whole time). Plus if you work hard enough you cant get as close as you want with GA.The thing I wonder about though, isn't the view going to be better from a balcony? And also, shouldn't the sound be better if you are a bit back from the stage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superloconoriega Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 ******** ATTENTION ***************We need an official volunteer thread, since A LOT of HTGTH and MYGNR forum users are going to the show.What i see is most needed is volunteer drivers from the aeroport to the show. Some moderator please create a Volunteer thread please. I would do it myself but we need our leaders now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
