Should be a memorable night last time they played there?? Anyone remember?? 91? Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: FunkyMonkey on October 15, 2011, 02:10:49 PM last time they played there?? Anyone remember?? This says 19 years -- it should be a really good show. Guns N' Roses plans first Indiana show in 19 years Rock star Axl Rose has scheduled his first performance in his home state of Indiana since 1992. Guns N' Roses will perform Dec. 8 at Conseco Fieldhouse. Tickets, $30 to $75, go on sale at 10 a.m. on Oct. 22. http://www.indystar.com/article/20111014/ENTERTAINMENT/111014022/Guns-N-Roses-plans-first-Indiana-show-19-years?odyssey=tab Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: disease51883 on October 15, 2011, 03:28:39 PM I rarely ever post on here anymore (You can tell by my icon..), but I couldn't be more excited for this show. After being a fan for years, this is going to be my first.
Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: AylaRose28 on October 15, 2011, 08:52:43 PM Yea it also made our local news last night..."hometown rocker returns after 20 years"....already have heard it on the radio 2-3 times since the first announcement. I think it's going to be a HUGE show here! Hopefully it will sell out! I saw them in 1991, 1992 (last time they played was 1992 w/ Farm Aid if that counts, but 1992 was also when they played with Metallica on that tour)...can't wait to see Axl again and I don't have to travel to another state unless I want to (which I think I am, how can I resist seeing more than one date!)....should be interesting if we maybe get a special appearance by Izzy? Or another "Indiana rant" from Axl? Ugh, I can't wait! :love:

I have not had the opportunity to see them since Deer Creek in 91' .... gonna try to catch two shows in case I have to wait another 20 years ;) Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: AXL DEMOCRACY on October 16, 2011, 12:55:22 AM Would be awesome if Izzy was there.
And if only the late great Shannon Hoon was still with us...a duet on "Don't Cry" would be stunning I'd imagine. :( Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: SID111 on October 16, 2011, 09:40:53 AM I will be at this show also...........
Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: russtcb on October 16, 2011, 10:21:58 AM Damn! Another very tempting show that's about a 5 hour drive from me....
Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: AylaRose28 on October 17, 2011, 10:55:44 AM It's nice to see others on here that are going to the show too!
wow..five hours? So that's like Nashville maybe? I'm struggling to find anybody that will go with me for the much shorter rides to Cincy and Columbus! (my friends are all boring and married)...wish I had a car that would make it...I'd just go by myself! Hey, I figure its their loss! And Izzy on something old school would be so killer. I unfortunately thought of Shannon Hoon too when I was writing that post. Would have been really cool to see. ayla Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: Ak1nney on October 17, 2011, 12:29:45 PM This will be my first GNR show ever. I'm only in my early 20's, so this has been my only shot to see them in my home state. Looking forward to it!

Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: disease51883 on October 20, 2011, 09:26:54 AM I've been getting hyped up for this show. I've been talking about it on Facebook. I've been defending the band on the local newspaper's website. But, since I don't go to a lot of concerts, I've got some questions about the tickets. If anyone can help me out before they go on sale tomorrow, I'd really appreciate it.
http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/0500474EEB2EBBCF?brand=conseco Basically, a few of my friends and family are planning on going to show with me, and while everyone's looking forward to seeing the band, I don't want to see my mom surfing around the pit. Going by the Bob Seger chart at the link above (I'm sure there's no difference), which section(s) would be best for getting close to the action but not so close that it becomes a nuisance? Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: BluesGNR on October 20, 2011, 07:34:57 PM I've reserved a private executive suite and have a few extra Tix. Right now it's just me and my pregnant wife and some friends from work. If anyone is looking for a more exclusive view of the show without having to deal with the crowds please send me a PM. Thanks! :peace:

The Seger chart makes sense, as it's end stage. I've been to quite a few concerts at Conseco, and there aren't a lot of "bad" seats. I saw AC/DC from 200 level (sec 209 seems about right) and it was fine. I saw Seger from sec 11, which was good (not close, but straight on), Bon Jovi from 111 (low rows in a balcony are always good seats). The only seat I'd complain about was Elton John from section 14, because you're not all that close and you're also not facing the stage. If you want to be close, I'd choose floor, 4/5/16/17. If you want a great view but not so close, then the 100 level (low balcony) works beautifully. Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco!

Post by: Ak1nney on October 21, 2011, 11:56:57 AM Lower Level or higher seats? Here's your view:
http://www.seats3d.com/nba/indiana_pacers/ Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: disease51883 on October 21, 2011, 02:19:51 PM Yeah, I was looking at that earlier. I'm in Row 6 - So that'd be the end of the lower level, I guess. What about you?
Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: Ak1nney on October 21, 2011, 04:44:03 PM I had to settle for some cheaper tickets at this show, so I went with the middle price range. I'll be in Section 7 Row 11. Conseco is pretty small and that's the best tickets that were coming up at 10 am for the middle price, so I'll take it. I can't wait.
Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: disease51883 on October 21, 2011, 05:12:51 PM Yeah, I'm happy with mine. Now I'm just hoping for good driving weather. Indy's kind of out of the way for me.
I wonder when we're going to hear about an opening act. Hmm.. Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: tcb20 on October 21, 2011, 06:13:32 PM I have been a lurker here for a LONG time...now I can jump in. Had to work today, but my wife was home and got me a ninth row ticket!! Can't wait to see the show live!! I have seen them every time they have played Indy.
I looked after work and there were standing room only tickets??? Any clue where that would be. Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: freedom78 on October 22, 2011, 09:52:06 AM I got 2nd row in the lower balcony. Balcony seats at Conseco are pretty good.

I looked after work and there were standing room only tickets??? Any clue where that would be. The entire floor is General Admission...which are the tickets I got. So I'm assuming all reserved seats are sold out. Which is pretty cool! Wish we knew who was opening...I'm going way early to get down front and I hope its someone I dig. btw, the private executive suite that someone mentioned, would be so amazing! ayla Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: Hoosizzit on October 23, 2011, 12:36:12 AM Section 8 ..... this will have to do ! Decent seats for Cincy as well..... Can't wait for December
Title: Re: December 8 - Indianapolis at Conseco! Post by: disease51883 on December 05, 2011, 08:31:40 PM December 8th's coming up quick. And I'm having "first GNR show" cancellation jitters. Ha.
