New York City, USA Hammerstein Ballroom - May 12, 2006 + general info

[Mr.Intensity]

I love the idea of a poker tourney on saturday.....be cool if someone could host.? My apartment is WAY too small for that.? I could see someone getting really low and betting their tickets in desperation - Rounders style! hahha.?

Mr. I, do you play online poker?

Yes...

At gamesgrid.com, pokerstars, and party poker.. I prefer $10/20 limit, or max buy in $500 no limit. But, will play for as little as $25.00 tourny.

[mikegiuliana]

so who is going the 12-14th??

Can we try and book a different bar for the first show, or are we doing all the same.

[meathead]

Ticketmaster still not showing those dates 12 anf the 14th!  Is it on?

Greetings,

I am planning a pre-party for this event scheduled to take place at Mustang Harry's which is about 5 minutes walking distance from Hammerstein Ballroom. This bar can hold up to 400 people and will allow us to play Guns N Roses music from around noon-5:30 pm on May 15th and May 17th before the show. This will be for all ages as the bar serves food and drink. No underagers will be allowed to drink however obviously. Please pm me or post in here if you plan on attending the pre-party as I have guaranteed the owner he can expect at least 50 people or a $1000.00 total tab from us Guns N Roses fans. The owner has agreed to work up some type of drink special for us (like $2.00 40oz of nightrain...j/k), but he really is going to lower beer prices. Please feel free to bring yourself and your friends to the bar, it is clean, handicap accessible, and close to the venue. This is a perfect oppurtunity for us to meet and prepare to cheer on Guns N Roses return to the stage and ultimately their return to rock n roll glory.

The main floor will be general admission seating for this event. I understand some of you will prefer to camp out in line to get close to the stage. I still encourage you though to all work in shifts, so you'll have the oppurtunity to come over to the bar and meet fellow posters you've been posting with the last 1-7 years on this board.  Stay tuned to this thread as I am still finalizing all the details. I hope you'll all be in attendence.

Keep in mind I am sure everyone will at least have one guest. Let's fill Mustang Harry's to the capacity of 400. 

An after party at a local bar called the Black Door is also being considered, the manager has offered me bottled beers for $4.00 and well drinks for $7.00. Well liquours are Absolut, Captains, hose Cuervo, etc.....

I'm working my hardest to find us the best prices!!!

add me to that list for Monday, 5/15 (and at least one guest) 

I'm going to be there.

I'm sitting in the 2nd mezz - does anyone have thoughts on how long I should stand in line ahead of time? I'm thinking it should be less competitive than the floor... especially because it is a sloping floor where everyone can see.

[mikegiuliana]

Anyone making travel arrangements:

If you're coming by Amtrak train (which I'm assuming means you're on the east coast already), you can use the following promo code to get a nice discount on your train ticket.

H570



It's a public discount code, so anyone can use it.
