Use Your Illusion 05 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I'm really excited because Guns N' Roses are coming to Cleveland this Friday and it is going to be an absolute blast. I bought floor seats and I intend on being up in the front. I was wondering, what kind of band is GNR live. What I mean is, are the fans crazy and start a big mosh pit to heavy songs like WTTJ, It's So Easy, and Nighttrain or is the crowd more controlled and having a good time w/o a pit. I'm not 16 years old and nor do I have to be in a big mosh pit but those were always fun when I was at punk shows. Last question, should I bother bringing my digital camera or will it simply get taken away by security or even the man himself (St. Louis 1991). Also if anyone knows who is opening that would be great to know to. I could give a shit about Axl showing up on stage late, people need a bit of patience anyway. heh heh. Either way this concert is only two days away and this is going to be epic as GNR has been in my blood for the past 15 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthisriver Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 All I know is that its going to be an awesome show and your going to have the time of your life. Well you should. And you should expect it to get pretty crazy during, WWTJ,ISE and PC and a few others. If you can't handle just try to stay towards the back or side. Enjoy, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patience 4 Axl Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 The mosh pits aren't that big of a deal. Some pushing in the beginning, maybe an asshole or two who usually get pulled out by security, that's about it, from my experience anyway.As for bringing a camera, really depends on the venue and how strict security is. At Hammerstein and Vegas I was searched from head to toe. At MSG, the security guy just smiled and said "enjoy the show" without so much as touching me. I could have walked in with a bazooka.

JimBobJoeJackJr Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 (edited) You have to go through metal detectors to get into The Q so it may be tough getting that camera in. We have some discussions going on in the Upcoming Concerts section of the Message Board for the Cleveland show. Go check 'em out.We get the first show of the tour with Eagles of Death Metal opening and as far as I know, we should also be getting Sebatian Bach.Please let me know if I don't have the openers correct or if I'm missing 1 or 2 - thanks Edited November 22, 2006 by JimBobJoeJackJr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the tourist Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Expect them to start late.Expect Axl to honor Slash, Izzy and Duff by forcing the entirely new band to play (almost) entirely old songs.Expect Axl to leave the stage fairly often to catch a breather and a drink.Expect the crowd to sit on their hands during each of the extended solos.Expect the crowd to thin by the encore.Expect Axl to say, "Good fuckin' night!" at the end.Expect to hear a lot of people making fun of him on the long, depressing walk back to your car. ppfff think you are never been to a gnr concert dude... it's a fucking great show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad, they are a blast. The energy and Axls presence usurp (sp?)any slow points. By the way, Spinal Tap had some slow spots in it too, but it was still great."There is such a fine line between being clever and stupid."

pebbles Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 You are going to remember it for a very long time, there is a LOT of pushing up front and it gets intense at times especially if your not 16 any more.

Dolamite Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I'm driving up to Cleveland on Friday morning. I'm very excited. This will be my 3rd show (1992 & 2002 being the others) Does anyone know what the timeline will be in Cleveland for openers/GnR ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharpie Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I will be at the show in Cleveland as well this friday, and cant wait. I have been to many rock shows in my lifetime, but never a gnr show, and have waited for this a long long time. My question is, when when you say about them might not let digital cameras in, do you mean just video cameras, or picture cameras as well. I would love to get some pics to share w/ u guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's So Sleazy Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Nope you can't have Picture Cameras at all. Axl will go Apeshit.my advice (I've done this before)... wrap your camera in Tampax. That way nobody will see your camera. They will just think you are holding up a bunch of tampons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
