Here Today... Gone To Hell!

Please dont sing along.  Sing in your car and your shower, but Axl has enough mic problems as is and people are going to the concert/bling them and people dont want to hear your idiotic drunken renditions of November Rain.  Im going to the last show and if I cant hear Axl singing cause drunken idiots are singing the wrong lyrics to Patience im going to be furious.

have you ever even been to a concert? you cant hear yourself let alone the people next to you.

everyone is going to do what they want. why not actually get off your high horse and have some fun with everyone else.

No way will you hear them  ;)

hey asshole have u been in a fuckin concert in your stupid life??? DON'T FUCK MAN many many ppl have been waitin for these gigs and one thing that makes axl happy is that everyone SING ALL THE MOTHERFUCKING SONGS ALONG WITH HIM
so don't talk crap man we're going to kick you ass all the fuck last night so be prepared hehehe

SATAN

Yeah its annoying on the boots but theres no way you wont be able to hea Axl over the audiance when your at the show dont worry  :peace:

StoneTempleRoses

though i will admit they have to turn axls mic up a little bit because he was drown by the band on a few songs, but the band is what made him hard to hear, not the people around me. so it was just a bad mix. or is it the acoustics in the hammerstien? ive only been there for the guns show, anyone know how sound is in that building?

Yeah people stand still and only move when you have to breath in and out, the cheek ?of some of you wanting to sing at a concert ?:hihi:

actually, get some better chants goin between the songs and support the band.the crowd was lame on the 12th.  seriously... i got one gnr chant goin... how about a welcome back chant... a weiland sucks chant... some axl axl chants... get into the show...everyone seemed really tired at the last one after 4 songs(up front anyway)  peace

I like the idea of "Welcome Back"-chant though "Pit-man, Pit-man" would be the coolest thing on earth..

i just absolutely love 'fans' who think it's their position to tell other ticketbuyers that they cant sing at a rock show :P

get over yourself!

some advice i would give though is to not trample people in a mad rush to get to the stage-matter of public safety and courtesy.

Yeah fuckity fuck fuck fuck, ass motherfuck!! ::)

yeah please do "pitt-man pitt-man"  :rofl:

so this is your first concert in your life right?

hey Ace,  go pick up AFD, Lies, UY1, UY2  and download the leaks.. sit in on your couch and listen to them all you want without any crowd noise.  have a blast.. also put your ticket on ebay so someone who wants to enjoy the full concert experience.. can go. 

Advice for those of us who are NOT going to the concert tonight:

Please if you are not posting any live updates, try not to post too much, because the system will crash.
I was here on the 12th and we were like 700-800 people in the forum, it was very difficult.

Have fun everybody!  : ok:

Yea the fans didnt drown him out the band did for some songs.

I don?t think it is going to be that busy tonight Lara. No worries. On the 12th it was the FIRST show, so that added tension plus, it was a Friday, so people could have a good sleep afterwards. Now we?re talking about the second show and it?s on a Sunday. I think it will still be very busy, but probably not as crazy as the 12th!  : ok:

i'm a fan of the WEILAND SUCKS!  WEILAND SUCKS! chant, myself.

If you do that then I hope the people there just turn around and give you a good kicking.

If I was going to the New York dates I wouldn't be told by some jackass on this forum not to sing along.

I would not sacrifice my night for some idiot who wants to hear an audio off the net.

Just my two pence.

Don't worry about it man you'll still hear the band if people are singing! As was said before you probably won't even hear yourself sing never mind anyone else.
I hope everyone headin out to the next few shows will have fun.
And, I can't stop anyone, but chanting Weiland sucks would just be shitty, if anyone here heard about someone chanting Axl sucks at a VR concert they would be bounding down on him calling him an asshole and a prick and all sorts of other stuff. You're going there to enjoy a GnR concert not a Scott Weiland bashing festival.

Scott Weiland Bashing Festival  :o whens that then ??  :beer:

HAHA! Wow. Do yourself a favor if you do not want to hear people sing with Axl then don't go. Thats what happens at concerts.. Some people.. Amazing.

and also dont have your fists in the air, it makes it hard for the people behind you to see :hihi: :rofl:

No singing
No drinking
No smoking
No fists in the air
No devil horns
No mobile phones
No crowd surfing
No moshing
No stage diving

have a good night!

That's a lot to ask. People go to concerts to have a good time and sing along to the songs. Besides, you'll still be able to hear Axl above everyone elses singing.

Looks like the rules to a Justin Timberlake concert

You better add no leching at teenage girls to that then

DICK!  NOW THATS WHERE I DRAW THE LINE!!!DO ANYTHING YA WANT TO THE GIRLS!

Thats the spirit...whilst we're on the subject please can someone get a few pictures of the hotties inside and out of the VIP section tonight. The trashier the better

What an ass..

I am driving from Boston, sleeping in my car just to see Axl and I am not suppose to sing along, or have a great time because this douche wants to see a symphony?? I spent loads of cash on my ticket, that's right 1 fucking ticket cuase it is in the middle of the week and no one can go with me, yet this ass wants everyone to be silent so he can enjoy the show.... do us a faovr rip your ticket and stay home and enjoy the Tokoyo DVD's....
Are we going to a Guns N Roses concert or a funeral?

grow up

You would think they would do  a sound check before the show. After, the band and Axl were in NYC days before  the actual concert.

looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

u pet, u wont fucking hear nothing, espicially in gnr sucky sound systems all u will hear is noise till u get used to it then ull hear some vocals.

if u want quality watch a pro shot dvd

ive been to a few shows that were really good quality, when i saw gnr in 93 they had the worse sound.

About the singing on the concert, besides the music, the most beautiful thing you can hear is the people singing along to any song...  I'm sure Axl loves to hear people loud, he has said it before.
If the soundboard boot comes out you'll "see" it's fun to hear the crowd too.

 :peace:

Axl has mic problems? Not on friday he didn't. Furthermore, first Guns show in 3 years and you want people not to sing?! Sounds more like you're looking for a good bootleg recording of the show. I'm going tonight again to Hammerstein, and I hope whoever you are I sit next to you cuz I'm gonna sing loud as a motherfucker tonight just for you baby!!! :beer:

You forgot, in bed by 11PM!  ;)



People will sing at shows, and it's not like this is some quiet acoustic show where your singing might be easy to make out....


Sing, have a good time, don't be an asshole and watch out for the people around you.  : ok:




/jarmo

it's a rock concert! of course people are gonna sing along.
still yeah, it's annoying on the bootlegs :hihi:
but believe me, you will hear Axl better than the 2000 drunk people singing along! ;)

you can hear them
i could barely hear axl at all at the first show
i was really pissed

I thought Axl's volume went up as the evening progressed, but the crowd was so loud it was hard to hear at times.  But he was amazing, he is a great performer.

Exactly. People like that ruin the fun for all the rest. It?s because of them that the country is going down the toilet!! :rant:

There?s nothing worst for a performer than people getting into it and singing along.  :hihi:

yeah, i can just see it now

"hey. hey can i get your attention please, yeah, that's the right, the 500 or so lot of you down here on the moshpit here alongside me, yeah you guys right here, could you lot of drunken, rowdy, overexcited, overenthusiastic, adrenaline fuelled, blinded, violent, aggressive GUNS AND ROSES fans kindly shut the fuck up and stop singing along and screaming so i can listen to my bootleg at home without all your voices in it? yeah thats right, fucking hell you alot, you'd think you were out to have fun at a rock concert or something like that...yeah..HAH"

and here's my advice to you.

"run. fast."

If I had one complaint from Friday night it is with some members of the crowd.  If you were there you know the ones I'm talking about.  The ones who stood there with their arms crossed with not so much as a headbob during the entire show.  I really thought they took away from the atmosphere.  Maybe that's the way you like to enjoy the concert and that's fine.  However, I suspect, as is likely the case, these were "Greatest Hits" fans and thought they'd go see a band who they enjoy 2 or 3 songs by.  I was getting very annoyed with these people as the concert wore on and they continued to stand there right in the middle of the floor.  Next time you go to a concert learn the band's material.  That was the one thing that disappointed me Friday.

Oh yeah man, you're always gonna get people like that at shows. It does such that people like that are out there on the floor when there are probably hardcore fans up in the rafters or whatever who have to make do with what they have. I dunno if it's just because these people don't know all the songs, or if they're tired, or if they're too drunk or high to move, or if they're too cool to be seen dancing or whatever, or if they have some sort of physical disability..ok that doesnt answer for much, but I do see these people all the time at concerts and it does suck

Or some people just do not like to sing a long or move a lot and like to watch and listen. Just because they arent acting like 12 year old girls doesn't make them less fan than we are.

Yeah okay that's probably a much more reasonable explanation, but I never understood how people like this just don't get anything from the atmosphere, or don't get excited. I don't exactly go jumping around people or screaming my lungs out but I headbang a bit at least just because I can't help it..i dunno...it's a concert..don't people get excited by the feeling..anyway i dunno. each to their own i guess

Ticket Master has that one TBA.. Rumours are it'll be held at AxlFinks house and will cost $1.50 per ticket.

On topic: As for the OP, pretty much all the beatdowns and name calling I woulda said has already been said. But I still dare you to repeat your views at the show so we can find out how fast you can run.

Sing along a loud as you can, but don't sing if you're bootleggin it (not cool).

i remember Axl during the UYI tour-i think, got really pissed off at people in the front coz they werent singing along with him. he said they were standing there with their hands crossed like they were there to judge him. so if you dont want axl to walk out of the gig please sing along. :beer:

Exactly right. For me Nov Rain is kinda played out. But to hear people in 2002 MSG singing along with every word made it very cool to hear.

dude i was screaming my fucking head off with everyone else around me and i could still could hear axl perfect. HE SOUNDED FUCKING AWESOME BETTER KICKED ASS!!!! Nightrain was sweet too. NR WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!And bach on stage with axl words cant fucking describe how good no fucking AMAZING and awesome this show was. i got home at 5am. The only thing you shouldnt do is be a dick and mosh run into people.
