Shadow_guns Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Im most likely going to the show in NJ and I would like to return with some pics but im afraid I might piss Axl off and ruin the show for everyone. Do they still care if I take pics? This is my first big concert so dont yell at me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ88 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 depends where your seats are i guess. i brought my camera to the concert, i was sitting in the first bowl (of seats) equivalent to where the closest blueline (im talking hockey) to the stage and i never got caught Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallagher Rose Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 No,it's not safe..Axl can see you and kick your ass out of the venue.And they will grab you camera look what will happen to you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1ksysABDSE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ88 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I don't see why it matters anymore.... everybody and their mother has a camera on their phone...i dont think Axl cares about pictures, its video recorders that he'll toss you out for having Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bandita Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I have strapped mine around my leg a few times for shows and then covered it with my boot but I never tried for GNR just because I have heard all of the horror stories of getting kicked out.Personally I would rather just enjoy the show anyway. I have been way up front for the last 4 shows I saw so I certainly didn't want to chance making Axl hate my guts for flashing in his face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pain_Train_99 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 that clip is awesome, i love how he just leaps off the stage and they play in the background anyway like this is a usual occurence for axl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow_guns Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 I think im going to play it safe after all. If I get kicked out I might not get to see them again for a long long time. Seeing the youtube video again from 1991 really helped me make my decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaleigh Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 At the Warfield show, my dad specifically asked the security guards if it was all right to take pictures, and they said "as long as you're not video recording." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sXedirtbag Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 i was taking some pics at the may 12th show...i was right near the stage on the floor...some dude told me "no more" and i put the camera away. then i saw other people keep taking pics after someone told them no more and they got pulled aside....so pretty much don't piss off the security and don't make it too obvious and you'll return with many pics.

gnr=axl Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 (edited) I took a camera to both shows that i went to on this tour and at each i was between 2 and 5 people from the front and i got home with my camera both times although on both occasions i only had a disposable camera. Although at the Hammersmith gig a member of security saw me takin a pic and he wasnn't happy but i just put my camera away and he didnt ask for it, after a few minutes i started taking pictures again.My advice is if your that close dont use your cam just incase, if you are further away then click away my friend Edited September 28, 2006 by gnr=axl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*FiberGlass Doll* Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Haha this thred reminds me of the aerosmith concert I was at last year we snuck a camera and we were right beside the entrance so there was a person who was suppose to make sure no one has any camras or anything like that but whenever she looked away we took a picture and she caught us the first time and said put the camera away so we did but then my mom wanted just on more picture and she took one and the person caught us again and they said if you take one more picture im going to take your camera away and kick you out of the show so we didn't take anymore pictures after that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandita Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 No,it's not safe..Axl can see you and kick your ass out of the venue.And they will grab you camera look what will happen to you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1ksysABDSE I have to wonder if Axl keeps that furry black thing in his closet for memories sake... But seriously, don't bring an expensive camera to a show unless you are prepared to lose it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohyesindeed Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 that clip is awesome, i love how he just leaps off the stage and they play in the background anyway like this is a usual occurence for axl I always loved that. They just keep on playing. On with the show! ha! the best is how, when he climbs back on stage, he spreads his arms out really fast to indicate "STOP!" and they all immediatley shut up.....in hindsight it's kinda funny to think about:in a split second axl dove into the crowd, and i wonder if the guy with the camera was thinking/feeling the following:1. "guns n roses kick ASS! gotta get a photo...."*axl jumps in*2. "huh?"3. "wow he's really not that tall in real life....."4."he is PISSED!"5. "is he coming towards ME?"6. "how am i supposed to take him seriously when he's wearing a black feather boa and white spandex shorts?....."7. "uh-oh" personally, i would leave the camera at home. there'll be a million and six pictures of the show that will more than likely be from a better angle than you could get anyway. leave that space in your pocket for something cooler.

When I saw them in Prague I was in front barely 1 metre away from him, taking pics right into his face with my flash on...and so did a few people around me.He smiled at us Even the security inside didnt care,but they were pretty tight at the entrance.But that was in europe-dunno about the security in usa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F*ck Fear Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I take a disposable camera with me to every show I got to, but I will not take one to Toronto this time. I don't want to take any chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kissable Kate Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I took one to Wembley with me, my bf carried it in his pocket through the door, was searched but they didn't take the camera..It was only a disposable but I got lots of good pics, and the band didn't seem to mind, even though I was up close.. Wouldn't recommend taking an expensive one though just in case..KK x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cherry_bomb Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 it depends on the venue. at wembley i had my camera out all the time, i was front row and the guards saw me taking photos and didnt do anything. at hammersmith they told people to put their cameras away, i didnt see anyone ever get anything confiscated. but american security may be more strict...
