Title: How do you get backstage passes?! Post by: Rhythm-n-Booze on November 22, 2006, 12:58:25 PM My friend and I are going to the Clevland show, and we figured why not try to get backstage. What the hell do you gotta do to get backstage that doesn't involve having a huge rack?

Title: Re: How do you get backstage passes?! Post by: miss bomb on November 22, 2006, 01:30:49 PM really funny how people assume you have to be a whore to get backstage.
its simple as this - you either know a band member, were personally invited by the band member or someone in the gnr team. Title: Re: How do you get backstage passes?! Post by: Axl&Baz07 on November 22, 2006, 01:33:17 PM my experience is it's just about being in the right place, at the right time.
i'm not a whore, but i have gotten backstage at several rock shows. if you talk to PR people, or even roadies, a lot of times they can get you in... again, it's pretty much just a matter of timing, ime.

Unless it's a show of one of your friends, backstage is rarely all it's cracked up to be. After parties, on the other hand... Title: Re: How do you get backstage passes?! Post by: BluesGNR on November 22, 2006, 01:35:17 PM I'm a guy and got to the afterparty in NJ and at MSG.? I started talking to Gio, the bands security/bodyguard after he approached me to make sure I was having a good time.? Read my older posts and reviews from the nights... it'll clue you in.? Good luck.

Curb Your Enthusiasm. And people who have no sense of humor.Title: Re: How do you get backstage passes?! Post by: BKinNYC on November 22, 2006, 02:23:40 PM It's all about talkin' to the roadies. Going backstage and shit is nothing to them. The novelty is gone. So for them, getting you backstage is no big deal.

Fucking whore... LOL... Just kidding :) I agree... you don't have to be a slut or whatever ... But you HAVE to admit, having a nice body etc will help a lot of the time ;) That's the hollywood way .. lol. Anyways, you're lucky to have experienced backstage at rock shows :) Title: Re: How do you get backstage passes?! Post by: axlssis on November 23, 2006, 12:03:11 AM lol, i think right place at the right time is the case most of the time.....but if that fails......lmao...i am a blonde, my rack isn't great, but the rest of my body is, lol.....but i've also heard that being backstage doesn't necessarily mean you'll meet or even see any band members. i think the after party would be the place to try and get into.

I'm sure it helps when trying to convince roadies though. Title: Re: How do you get backstage passes?! Post by: Juanjay on November 23, 2006, 08:23:16 AM In my experience showing up is about 80% of it and networking is the other 20% of it. My cousin was/is in a couple of punk groups from the 80's back home in LA and that opened the door for me. I then networked and networked. Promoters, bands, bouncers... basically anyone.
So my advice get someone to get your foot in the door and go from there. The only backstage that ever lived up to the hype of "backstage" for me were the Jane's Addiction shows in '97. Most of the others are just a bunch of people running around or hangers on. The people that said that the after parties were the place to be are absolutely correct.
