Title: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: jarmo on February 25, 2010, 09:04:11 PM Not to get anybody's hopes up before this one is confirmed, especially if you live in Saint Petersburg, but the official web site (http://www.newarena.spb.ru/) of the Ice Palace lists a GN'R show the day after the Helsinki, Finland show: http://www.newarena.spb.ru/afisha/#front/2010/06 (http://www.newarena.spb.ru/afisha/#front/2010/06)

This is also what I am expecting to happen now at this stage, other European dates slowly starting to turn up. Lets wait and hope. :D Lee Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: estebanf on February 25, 2010, 10:11:21 PM this could be historic. Guns N' Roses in Russia.

Collecting bootlegs is (was?) for me a way to calm my anxiety down. The anxiety produced in me for not being able to see GNR live. But I really think I will stop collecting bootlegs (at least collecting like a retard freak who collects pretty much EVERYTHING like I am right now) after the 4 shows im planning to see in march :beer: Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: helenluna on February 25, 2010, 11:18:09 PM Is Ice Palace in Russia? OMFG please Jarmo find out if it's true! One of my best friends who loves GnR lives there!
Esteban, if it's true, and if you go, please take me with you! Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: faldor on February 26, 2010, 12:42:54 AM Has GNR ever played in Russia before?
Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: helenluna on February 26, 2010, 01:09:55 AM Nope.
Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: Sillything on February 26, 2010, 01:15:17 AM Cool if this happens! Hoping for confirmation and then it's time to look in to costs for visa to Russia

Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: dub05 on February 26, 2010, 05:05:41 AM Wonder what the chances of hearing sympathy are ?
Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: babydolls on February 26, 2010, 05:31:11 AM this would be immense! Can you imagine the crowd!!
Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: kaasupoltin on February 26, 2010, 05:44:41 AM After Of Helsinki ?? ??? What's the big deal with that? But this show would be cool anyway, gives me a reason to actually go to Russia for the first time in my life ;D Too bad those Allegro-trains aren't ready yet, the trip would take about 3,5h from Helsinki. And weren't GN'R supposed to play in Russia in 1993? Moscow if I remember right.. Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: estebanf on February 26, 2010, 06:16:17 AM Is Ice Palace in Russia? OMFG please Jarmo find out if it's true!

GNR was going to perform at the Kremlin in 1993. They had 5/21/93 scheduled to play there, but never happened. I'd love GNR to do what was unable to do in 2006: playing in Africa. Remember that My Coke Festival? One of the two dates was sold out (Johannesburg, if im not wrong) in a few days... Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: kaasupoltin on February 26, 2010, 06:26:06 AM I'd love GNR to do what was unable to do in 2006: playing in Africa. Remember that My Coke Festival? One of the two dates was sold out (Johannesburg, if im not wrong) in a few days... I agree with this.. there would be some happy people in South-Africa, first FIFA 2010 Championship tournament and then GN'R :D Nice combination. Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: Will on February 26, 2010, 07:37:17 AM That would be fuckin awesome.
In case it's true, I think I'll try to be there! Guns N' Roses in Saint-Petersburg, Russia!! Hmmm, but it's not in the EU, I hope it's ok with visa and all. Actually I'd love to see GN'R play in any Central or Eastern European country too (Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria, etc.). (South Africa was in 2007, but yeah that'd be cool too!) Google Translate says it's an arena with a capacity of about 12,300 seats. Usually it's for hockey games (and concerts).

Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: kaasupoltin on February 26, 2010, 09:16:43 AM I wonder why they never got around to playing Russia. I figured they played pretty much everywhere on that immense UYI tour. Some political stuff I guess.. I think it was a bad time to go there :P But why not on the 06/07-tour, that I don't know. Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: jarmo on February 26, 2010, 10:04:43 AM Knowing of the problems at the Finnish-Russian border crossing at Vaalimaa, having it the day after the Helsinki show makes me nervous.. :nervous:

'Cause if not, I wouldn't count on this show taking place on 6th of June. Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: zombux on February 28, 2010, 04:49:19 AM according to my friend from Moscow, there's no other information about possible russian GNR show, besides that Ice Arena info.

I also caught rumor about Moscow show at Olympic stadium, on June 8. so I asked my russian friend about the situation - here's his reply: Quote from: Leshiy20 To the show in St. Petersburg have already accepted applications for tickets http://spb.kassir.ru/spb/db/text/217055859.html, but at the concert organizer's site have no information. It seems as tickets go on sale March 5. About Moscow show is nothing at all is not clear, because information on one site - GN'R on June 8 http://www.lenta.ru/news/2010/03/03/gunsnroses/, but on the other - July 10 http://www.internetafisha.ru/guns.html. On the site of the Olympic Stadium there is nothing. Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: HBK on March 03, 2010, 03:01:32 PM Cool Poster

But no information about Moscow show. Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: Will on March 09, 2010, 03:54:40 AM Has this show been postponed as well? (like Zagreb)
The site still says June 6: http://spb.kassir.ru/spb/db/text/217055859.html http://www.newarena.spb.ru/afisha/#front/2010/06 Title: Re: June 6th, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia @ Ice Palace Post by: Nytunz on May 04, 2010, 09:05:27 AM Official on Facebook =)
