Here Today... Gone To Hell!

According to Gamerco.com, the GN'R show in Madrid on May 28th has been moved to May 25th which means the European tour will start in Spain.
Tickets bought for the 28th will be valid for the new date.

it's drawing closer! :o

what are your thoughts?

My thoughts are on May 12th myself.

yeah, looks like those who bought tickets to the "first" show in lisbon keep getting pushed back...

So has anyone speculated as to the WHY of the date change?

Does this ease the schedule? Was there a conflict in the venue booking? Are they adding another gig later? Did they just want an extra night to warm up before RIR?

I hate to say this but...here we go again...date changes etc etc etc...

I don't think a date change bringing a show forward is a bad sign really, it may well be entirely due to a situation at the venue rather than anything to do with the band that the date has changed, I wouldn't read anything negative into it  : ok:

i think they said that gnr decided to change the date : ok:

 :-[   Ah ok, still don't think it's cause for concern though do you?

i think that was the worst move ever! i already had a flight and hotel arranged, and now i'll have to see how i can go to madrid on the 25th and be in lisbon on the 26th in time to do a sound check at the hard rock for the pre party that we're throwin there....

gosh............ :no:

vote for pedro

I agree it's not a very smart move so close to the actual date...

why not?

No biggie

i agree, long as they show up for the whole tour...

For the fans who already booked plane/ hotels and won't be able to change reservations. Some will, some won't.

Read what MeanBone said.

aww man! and i thought that i was going to see the first show of the tour... ::)

i understand that that sucks, do you live in lisbon?
worse for the people flying in from other countries to catch the "first" show when it was in fact the 6th... glad i waited.

its not like it was cancalled he date was pushed forward people chill... : ok:

chill your ass!
there goes airplane tickets, hotel bookings and vacations arrangements.
now here's what's to do tomorrow:
1) try to find a flight for the 25th, and probably having to spend 3 or 4 times more what i was expecting.
2) try to find a flight back to lisboa on the 26th and be here before 8 a.m. or we won't be able to do the soundcheck at the hard rock cafe, which means not playing there at night
3) if that's the case, cancelling the flyers for the show, and probably loosing the contract for my band's other show at the hard rock.
other chances are not going to the madrid show, which is probably the realistic scenario.

It sucks, and I totally empathize for those effected... but no one can go too ape shit. Concert dates are always subject to change or cancellation... and for all we know this rescheduling was necessitated by something legitimate beyond the band's or venue's control. At least they're still playing Madrid, and you've got 3+ weeks to try and make it work.

If not, maybe you guys can catch them somewhere else in Europe this summer..

Good luck. :beer:

Apperantly the date is again back to the 28th...

Can't they make up their minds?  :confused:

The main site's not been updated cause it's not official. But the show is the 25th. I've just called.? :yes:

ok, cool  : ok:

Or maybe the tour is going to start in Switzerland on May 21st.....

Sp1at got it wrong: It's June 21st...

Yup, just noticed jarmo point the same thing out in the other thread.

:)

So Spain is stil the first show. 

Nice for Switzerland to get the show on the 21st, though.

ye at least I live in Lisbon, the only thing I?m sad about is that the RiR concert will not be that special anymore... :no:

actually i think it will, axl's relationship with RIR is special and it will be televized and the atmosphere will probably be awesome, i think you're in for something really special if you ask me : ok:
don't worry :peace:

It might be the biggest show on the whole tour....

Depends on how big crowds GN'R can draw to Rock Am Ring, Download and Roskilde....



/jarmo

yes, moreover: the more shows Axl does, the better his vocals get (that was the case regards the 2002 tour). And all these shows they are booking + still adding gives us an indication of how seriously they are taking this. Every show is gonna be huge!

F*/k!!!. I already bought 2 plane tickets and I can't change them. I'll have to buy 2 more for those dates.  :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant:
