Here Today... Gone To Hell!

When GN'R tour I get stressed out until I have good tickets ordered..Anyone else?..I've seen them on Long Island (where I live), NYC,NJ,CT N' Vegas...I've gotten everything since AFD on or before the day o' official release..I sought o' feel entitled to good seats..Wish there were a fan club o' soughts to guarentee same..

I remember scoring a pit ticket on ebay in 2006.   It was a little more, I don't remember maybe $150, but it was totally worth it.   

I get a little stressed prior to on sale.

I don't see why you would get stressed out. Tickets are not going to sell out within minutes so you should be able to get whatever seats you want.

I think it's commonly referred to as 'being a fan'.

I still get chills remembering May 12, 2006...buzzed from a great get-together with fellow Guns fans from HTGTH over at Mustang Harry's...bounding up the stairwell at the Hammersteinhyped as fuck! up to the 2nd mezzanine to see my favorite band of all time...
bliss.

so yes, I can totally understand the "stressed out" sentiment.  to put you at ease LIGuns, seeing GNR from anywhere in an arena is fucking awesome!

I can't wait for the train to roll to the northeast/mid-atlantic seaboard.  As has been mentioned before, Atlantic City would be un-fucking-believable. 
If they could ever get Philly to work, it would be excellent as well.  The freakin dj's at 93.3 WMMR are a bunch of a-holes.  Every time Axl is mentioned, he's referred to as "Botox Boy."  Fuck them.
If only I could write Axl's material..."Suck my dick Pierre Robert...on second thought, no, you'd probably enjoy that."   :hihi:
 :peace:

so you're saying im not a fan because I don't get stressed out?? pfff..

No, I think what he's saying is that it's not unusual to get anxious, excited and/or happy about news like this for a fan.

Then worry/get stressed about tickets.

And then count the days until the show....

HELL YEAH I get stressed out about this...I live in NJ and am going to be in Disney World next week when the two florida shows go on sale, im hoping they dont add the NY area dates before then and put them on sale at the same time because then I am going to have to rely on my blackberry ticketmaster app in order to get tickets, and its not always reliable.  But at the same time im hoping they add NY dates to begin with!  That said there is no better feeling than getting the confirmation number from ticketmaster once your ticket order goes through.  I remember jumping through the roof when I got my tix to 2 Hammerstein shows back in 06 or even better my Albany and MSG shows from 02 which was the first time I ever saw the band.

Exciting times ahead, totally stoked,I never forget the feeling of goin to the Hammerstein shows, hanging out with all you crazy awesome fuckers, at mustangs before each show, and on and on!. Im excited! never forget :beer:

I was also at Mustangs and it was awesome, im really hoping we can do the same thing for the Orlando show..is it true the 2 florida shows are 4hrs apart? That sucks if thats the case.

yeah its about 4 hours apart. im in miami, ill be going to the orlando show and then back home for the miami show

I get stressed out wondering if they're going to play Vegas. Even though I know almost 100% they're coming here, I still stress until I have tix in hand!

Damn, not sure if its worth renting a car to drive 4 hrs, or just go back home on a plane.

Wanna talk stressed out? I was waiting for the Zagreb show last year, it was the longest year of my life.

I counted down every day after the show was announced, bought my ticket on the very first day of sale (couple of months before the show).

And since it was announced that GN'R is coming to Croatia in March at first, then I was all pumped and happy it's gonna happen but then all of a sudden it got canceled for some reason and there was this story that the promoter fucked everything up and GN'R is not coming at all.

So after the 2nd announcement of the show (that it's gonna happen in September) it was the longest wait ever. And the stress part was waiting for the promoter to fuck it all up once again.

And at the day of the show me and my friends were the first at the Arena waiting for the show, arriving at noon and the show started almost 12 hours later.  :hihi:

But if I had to do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing. Best experience ever which I'll remember forever. :)

That's my deal. I get a little stressed until a Detroit date shows up from like 3 sources. Then I DEFINITELY got stressed until I've got my tickets in hand!

lol my biggest problem is that I am laidoff, have been sense Jan. So I don't have the funds. Its driving me nuts!!

I'm stressed right now, wondering if I will be going to one of these shows or waiting until Vegas and Seattle, won't figure it out until my sleepy husbands awakes from his slumber, so now I pace around until I can ask lol....  No is not in my vocab often, but I just can't say either way...  guess time will tell.  I have waited this long so I guess If I am not going I can certainly wait a little longer, but won't be happy about it ::).

Two dates in Florida suggests this is gonna be a pretty big tour.  Can't wait for this!  : ok:

I get stressed waiting for a show in the NYC area to be announced  cause im only 15 so i never got a chance to see GN'R in '06 or '02  or for the UYI and AFD Tours and i got into GN'R cause i heard chinese democracy on the radio in November 08 and then bought CD and bought all the other albums from there but ive never got to see GN'R tour and im hoping the florida shows are a sign that they will head up north to NY so i can finally see them

Presales for forum people would put an end to the un-ease, but can this happen in the current climate?

Let's see.

That would be awesome!

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm  I fit that description perfectly!   ;D ;D

I feel just the same...

God bless all GNR fans!!!

I get super stressed, and cant stop talkin about GnR all the time, ususally leads to a few fights with the gf because im kinda annoying, ticketmaster gives better seats to American Express holders, and i dont have it, so i have to ask someone to do me a favor and let me get my tickets and i will pay them cash. sale for Florida shows are next friday and im thinkin to get the mornin off to be able to buy my tickets as soon as they come out. so yeah, im stressed out, your not the only one.

Over the last few days all I keep saying to people I know is this "Hey, I'm not 100% sure yet, but I believe the best band in the world will be here near the end of November or in early December. You may want to make sure to get tickets"

I've started warning my friends, but I haven't put the full court press on just yet.  Not until I know the exact details.  I don't want to get peoples hopes up or provide them with misinformation.

Oh, and a forum presale would be SWEET!  I missed out on the Hammerstein shows unfortunately.

I'm sure they'll come eventually, but I'm a little surprised we havent heard rumors of any other dates being booked by now, what with the Florida shows going onsale this Friday...

Yeah, I've only thrown it a few people's way. I'm guessing this week we'll hear something official and then I'll go nuts on my unsuspecting friends.  :hihi:

It's better to not talk until things are confirmed, than to start rumors way too early.


But there's been some rumors already.

The promoter in the Northeast, Eddie Trunk talking (as usual) about US dates....

The band starts rehearsing next week too, which is a sign of a big tour outing.  That's good news.  It also gives them time to put together some "surprises" in the setlist.  :yes:

There is more than a good possibility that we will be hearing more dates announced soon.

Although, I guess that's easy for me to say considering the first 2 shows are within a 5 and a half hour drive from my house.  :)

I'm thinking I may just attend the Orlando show and then fly to Vegas later in the year, assuming that they place there in Nov / Dec.

Would really like to hear The General or Atlas Shrugged.
