Auditorio Juan Carlos I, May 25 (Madrid, Spain) [DATE CHANGED]

[Christos AG]

Oh, and if anyone needs GN'R tickets for Madrid, don't hesitate to ask. I know 4 people that can't go there for sure.

I won't sell mine yet... Probably never... 

[cyllan]

I know some of you are coming from very far away for this, I hope I'll get to see you all anyway?

I did think about cancelling this trip because of the extra cost of changing my flights (especially as the credit card has really taken a beating over the NYC trip), but in the end decided to bite the bullet and go anyway. ?After all, there's no way of knowing how this tour will go and if or when the band will be back in Europe. ?(Not being a pessimist - just trying to be realistic!) ?Anyway, definitely looking forward to it and seeing everyone too. ?

[Ignatius]

I'm thinking of spending 300 euros more and going to Madrid on the 25th.

Yeah C'mon Christos...300? is worth it. You'll get to attend the very first show of the European Tour. You know the first and last shows of any tour are always the best...


Edit.- If you can't make it on the 25th, I'll meet up with you on the 28th.

I know that it's worth it but I'm not sure I can afford that money at the moment.

That's why I'm thinking about London as well, cause if that happens in mid July, I'll have the money at the time...

[Gunnershome]

Its a mean trick for those who both flight tickets,Christos i feel your pain..I dont understand why the managment makes so much faults that the real fans are gonna bleed for.personly i think that it is this way because off the rir5 show will be broadcast on the national tv...then you have on this way a extra tryout like the new york gigs...i can be wrong but this is a hard for the diehard fans who bought expensive tickets to support Guns 'N Roses.

[Dont Try Me]

The date is back to 28th......?

Weird... Whats going on...??

[Ignatius]

I've just called. It's the 25th.

They haven't updated it onm the main site cause it's not "official"yet but, yes, the show has moved to the 25th.

I've asked how were the tickets selling and they told me they were impressed by the demand. Still not sold out, but it will (so they believe)

[cyllan]

I've just called. It's the 25th.

Thank you so much for checking, Ignatius.    I nearly had a heart attack when I thought it might be back to the 28th!

Don't know if you've found anywhere to stay yet, Christos, but the nearest two hotels I've found are

http://www.sofitel.com/sofitel/fichehotel/gb/sof/1606/fiche_hotel.shtml

and

http://www.novotel.com/novotel/fichehotel/gb/nov/1636/fiche_hotel.shtml

I'm staying in the first one.

Hope this helps.

[Christos AG]

Done.

Probably one of those 2 cyllan mentioned.

We just lost 350 euros.... each....

[Ignatius]

Cool?

So you all are coming. Sure it's gonna be a hell of a party!


About the hotel, the sofitel is ok. It's close to the venue. Thing is, we will have to find transport arrangments to head back downtown when the show is over. The hotel and venue are close to the airport but 10-15 kms away from where the action happens at night. I guess some of you could ride back? with me, others will have to take a cab or the subway (remains open until 1 am, so let's hope Axl shows up in time). Either way, we could arrange this once we are there.

I'm driving from Marbella to Madrid on thursday (may 25th) morning. It'll take me about 5-6 hours to get to Madrid. I probably won't be able to meet up before the show, but I'm all for meeting up after the show.
 
Since I've never been in Auditorio Juan Carlos I, it's gonna be hard to locate a meeting point at least, till we go to the show. I don't want to invade anyone's privacy, but I wouldn't mind giving you my mobile number so we can text one another and agree on a meeting point once we are there. What do you think?

[Steph]

Hi guys, I'm new in here, so first of all nice to meet you all?

I'm gonna attend a few shows including the one in Madrid but I have no idea about what the Auditorium looks like and stuff...just read it's close to the Airport...
Do any of you know if it is within a walking distance from it?
How can I reach the place and at what time approx will you get there?

Too many questions, sorry...hope to meet some of you guys out there?

[Hujiko]

hi all of you..

some info that might help you.
the auditorio it's located INSIDE the Juan Carlos I park (the biggest here in Madrid).
the park it's really nexto to the airport (only 1 station with the subway)
Both (the park and the auditorio) have a circle perimeter, the auditorio it's located  on the southest part of the park
It's very hot in summer for there ain't too much trees

Last week I spent the day with my girlfriend (we'll going to the show ) and walk to the area where the arena it's located. I remember stopping myself and begin saying to her: "look, do you smell it?" and she went "what?" and I replied "it's GUNS N' FUCKIN' ROSES smell hereee!!" hehehe

sorry for my 'engrish', Ignatius, I think you might translate to english
