**UPDATED** NEW YORK SHOW(S) TICKET THREAD!!!!!

[allmysalvation]

hes better off parking in the city

Yeah, he probably is. Just wanted to give him all the options though.

Can anyone give me a ball-park figure for the cost of parking up there?? I'd be heading up from Delaware and I guess I'd need to park somewhere.

Thanks,

30-40 dollars to park for the evenings in that area. You're in the same area of NYC as the garden, which is within walking distance. You could however get long term parking in NJ, right through the tunnel, which is literally blocks from hammerstein. In hoboken, nj, you'd then take the path train to 34th street. Would cost probably 25 with the train.

Thanks for the info. ?After looking at the cost of plane fares to the shows in Europe, it doesn't look so bad! ?(I'm still jealous of you Europeans though!) ?

Also, I asked my girlfriend about the shows she's been to at Hammerstein, and she said they were all GA.

[younggunner]

If you are coming from the South, just take 95 through Jersey (Turnpike), follow to the Lincoln Tunnel. When you go through the tunnel, go to the right and park your car the first place you can. Then come out and say to anyone walking by "which way to the hammerstein" and they'll point, it's like 3 blocks away from there

Will cost about 30-40 dollars for the parking garages.

Plan for traffic on the Turnpike and a delay going through the tunnel.

If you have any other questions I'd be more than happy to help however I can. Rock on. I'm sure some people know the city better than I do, but I'll offer any info I know.

Hey im commin from the NE ohio area so im bankin on about a 6 hour trip barring no delays...how much of a delay should i bank on so i can leave earlier and be able to make it in the doors around 7:30 and i was told that i should possibly park in the subburbs and take public transportation to the city but im sure you know better than they do so just help a brotha out

I have no idea about coming from OH. But I would imagine 80 will be involved at some point. 80 takes you to the GW Bridge, which you don't really want. What I would do, not sure if this is like the perfect way or whatever, is I would get mapquest directions to Giants Stadium in East Rutherford NJ. This way, it will direct you to Route 3 East in NJ, which goes right to the Lincoln Tunnel. If you decided to take the PATH train from Hoboken, you would want to get to Route 3 East in NJ as well, as right before the tunnel are the exits for Hoboken.

I'm not trying to be like an expert on this, but I live right outside NY, so I am somewhat familar with travelling there. But I'm sure there are others on this board who know better than I do.

[Crashdiet]

GOD I"M SO FUCKING NERVOUS!!! I so scared I won't get a ticket. I've got my plane booked and hotel booked. I'm hoping I can get a ticket for each night but i'll settle for one. I'm from nowhere canada.... THIS IS ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT!

My whole life i've dreamed of seeing gnr in a theatre.... PLEASE LET ME GET A TICKET PLLLLEAAAASSSSEEE!!!

[jazjme]

We need to all meet at the closest bar to the front door on the left at 8:00 pm and do a group shot or something.

Lol if we all wore nametags.. people would be like "what the fuck?"

We'll be brawling when we meet....  Our issued htgth t shirts with name tags....  Maybe hold a sign like a limo driver..  Shit lets rent a stretch hummer and do this in style

Hammerstein Ballroom looks like the place in the November Rain video, am I right or wrong?

[mikegiuliana]

The tempest is a cool bar, I was there last week, it's on 30th and 8th avenue... You have the blarney near the manhattan mall which is 33rd between 6th and 7th ave.....

The list has been updated again ?

I would also like to thank Jarmo for letting us post the list on his site and also making it a sticky/important topic thread.

Here's hoping we all get tickets :-)
