Title: Re: GNR in Albany, NY @ Times Union Center -- November 23, 2011 Post by: cotis on October 03, 2011, 07:25:30 PM Honestly now that more dates are popping up not on the schedule at first, I can definitely see MSG or Nassau Coliseum being used. More likely Nassau because if I'm not mistaken - The Garden is full around the time GNR will be around, the first leg at least.

Title: Re: GNR in Albany, NY @ Times Union Center -- November 23, 2011 Post by: MR.BROWNSTONE on October 03, 2011, 08:44:30 PM Honestly now that more dates are popping up not on the schedule at first, I would have loved to go to this show also but it a bad date with the Holiday, work and already going to two shows that week. Great to see more dates popping up. I just wished we had all the dates now. I need to plan work around them all. :nervous: Hope this tour goes on for a long time. 8) Title: Re: GNR in Albany, NY @ Times Union Center -- November 23, 2011 Post by: Axlfanatic on October 04, 2011, 08:17:33 AM Ditto that! gonna be visiting my folks 4 Thanksgiving that week just an hour way- 1 in a million timing! it will b my 6th show this tour!! :beer: :smoking:

The NJ show is about 10 minutes from the tourist section of NY. Anyone coming to see GNR who wants to spend time in NYC I strongly recommend the Jersey show. Albany is about as close to NYC as Philadelphia. Title: Re: GNR in Albany, NY @ Times Union Center -- November 23, 2011 Post by: sandman on October 04, 2011, 12:37:38 PM i would love to hit this show, but i really shouldn't be traveling that far the night before thanksgiving. but this will be killer. that wedneday night is a great time out! this time last year i was working in albany, so i did the drive from the philly area several times. a little long, but not a bad drive. this is really tempting.
i'm was hoping to hit 3 shows....camden, then Hartford or Wilkes-Barre, and one other one. i was hoping for a NYC or baltimore/DC that would work out for me. still waiting for the rest of the dates. but hitting both hartford and WB is an option, but that's a freakin hike! would be a fun weekend though. kudos to all you guys hitting several shows all over the NE. that's awesome! :beer: Title: Re: GNR in Albany, NY @ Times Union Center -- November 23, 2011 Post by: gnrfan1797 on October 04, 2011, 06:24:23 PM I was also there in 2002 it was a great show. i will be there this year to. quick question though. i read on the times union website that theres no seating its all GA is this true?

Axl will be performing in an arena I once played a high school basketball game in! :hihi: Fucking cool. btw, I remember that game vividly as I had to go over to the bench and RUN MY ASS OFF to the locker room to have violent diarrhea during the game! I hope Axl doesn't have to worry about that! :hihi: Title: Re: GNR in Albany, NY @ Times Union Center -- November 23, 2011 Post by: Loaded NightraiN on October 27, 2011, 10:07:39 AM btw, I remember that game vividly as I had to go over to the bench and RUN MY ASS OFF to the locker room to have violent diarrhea during the game!
