Wow.
I'm amazed at that. It's notoriously difficult for any band to play there- submission of all lyrics and setlista before appro al is standard I think- so given the song 'chinese democracy' alone I'm surprised they were granted approval. That will be an interesting show for sure- I imagine the setlist will have to be altered. Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: poorlakers on May 19, 2018, 08:11:55 AM The "new now"? As far as places go. Kinda like the wedding I just witnessed!

From Wikipedia: Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China and maintains a separate legislature, executive, and judiciary from the rest of the country. /jarmo Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: Voodoochild on May 19, 2018, 11:07:18 AM Yep, things work differently there. I landed in Hong Kong and had to travel to Shenzhen in a car, got stopped in the bridge between the cities by the Chinese border guards to check our visas. It's very much like a different country.
Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: allwaystired on May 19, 2018, 12:15:36 PM I had no idea that was the case. Thanks for filling me in.
It's good to see the tour getting to places that are bit off the tradional touring routes- and great for fans in those places that want to see the show of course.

Just saying. :D Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: zombux on May 20, 2018, 12:31:50 PM China?! Wow. don't forget they already played in HK in summer 2002, it was their first show of the year. it's just not widely known much, because no bootleg of the show has ever circulated.I'm amazed at that.

Yes, they have nothing to do with China proper. That country just happens to be around there as well. Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: HBK on May 21, 2018, 11:41:58 AM Hong Kong Democracy

AD is the last gig so maybe time to head over to India and South Africa late November and early December. I know there were rumours of Las Vegas shows for New Year previously, maybe this year..great that GNR keep touring.
Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: Lord Stan on May 21, 2018, 01:32:26 PM I'm not sure if India is able to handle a gig of this magnitude.
Surely, they have big cricket games all the time with very large attendances but it is chaotic and pure madness.

This tour seems to be about hitting places in Asia that didn't get to see GN'R in 2017. So a return to Australia, New Zealand and Japan seems less likely. Also, Slash has solo shows booked in September and October.... /jarmo Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: Spirit on May 21, 2018, 06:27:05 PM Also, Slash has solo shows booked in September and October.... ...what about December? ;) Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: jarmo on May 22, 2018, 05:57:18 AM Also, Slash has solo shows booked in September and October.... ...what about December? ;) December is after November, but before January. ;) :hihi: Haven't seen any dates for December yet. /jarmo Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: cineater on May 24, 2018, 12:35:20 PM Scream Park at Sunway Lagoon.

My cousin sent me a wedding invite a few months ago (I hadn't confirmed my attendance yet). She's getting married in Cape Town (South Africa) November 24th . I live in Spain, so it's not really down the road for me (11 hour flight)...well after reading this, I think she will be getting a confirmation email from me now! :rofl: BTW, South Africa is fucking awesome.

Obviously, it was clear that there wouldn't be beer in Dubai but there wasn't either in Poland that has otherwise 24/7 alcohol sales :rant: :beer: The band has, of course, no say about that but maybe Jarmo has.

Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: jarmo on May 29, 2018, 02:13:19 PM Maybe because I didn't see any announcement by anyone local yet.
/jarmo Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: elmir on May 29, 2018, 02:15:56 PM Yeah, a promoter called "Big Concerts" would be the ones to do it first i guess.
Or whoever gets booked as the support act, they'll probably jump the gun also in excitement and go all out on that. Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: brazil66 on May 29, 2018, 06:03:29 PM maybe they jumped the gun...great news. maybe they will announce other dates at the same time jarmo..so maybe durban and cape town which is a stunning place. if they are heading this way maybe we do see shows in india too. delhi, bangalore and mumbai.
what a tour. :) Title: Re: Guns N' Roses November 2018 dates Post by: cineater on May 29, 2018, 08:28:14 PM If you're going to the point might as well go down under. :D

Yeah, looks like a "report" on the tech glitch itself :hihi: Hardly an accurate source of info. The point is that people are talking about it, inquiring about tickets, etc....meaning that the demand is there, even though the venue is a 90k pax capacity, but they might just be able to fill it without problems, judging by the mood on the ground.
