I'll stand proudly and be the first to say "I will be there."? ?

[evergreen_layne]

I will too.  My hometown of Portland on the 11th then Reno about a month later.  Pollstar says it'll be at the Rose Garden but a commercial I heard on 101 said the Memorial Coliseum.  I'm hoping for the Garden.....

Holy crap 4 shows? Why don't you just get a job as a GNR roadie??? ? ?

[CalgaryMuscle]

 If I was offered the gig I'd take it in a heartbeat!! lol. I actually own a gym up in Calgary so it's easy for me to get away when I need to. Can't wait until December. X-Mas is coming early for me this year!!

[mikeb]

Very nice.? Being the boss definitely has it's benefits in this case.? ?

[damnthehaters]

I will be there

 Does anyone know if the pre-sale for this one is on Friday as well? I thought I saw info that it would be on Thursday but now I can't find it on the Rose Garden site. Any help would be greatly appreciated

[evergreen_layne]

The Rose Garden site now says the pre-sale starts on Fri from 10 AM - 10 PM.

[Mike McKagan]

Jesus, the Cyber Club presale GA seats are already sold out, and it only started two and a half hours ago.  Wow.  There may be a crowd after all! 

[CalgaryMuscle]

 I'm glad I got my tix this morning for both Portland and Everett!! The pre-sale for Calgary and Edmonton are a mess. No good tix at all! However I assume they aren't releasing very many for the pre-sale and the ones they are people are buying them with the mis-conception that the show is selling very fast, which I don't think is the case. Hope to see you there!

What a mess is right!? I could't get into the presale for about the first half hour I'm supposing because so many folks were jamming the site.? Finally got some tickets but dang it all I need five but they only we're selling 4 max.? I bought 3 anyway and will try for 2 more tomorrow when the general sale opens.

I'll be there. I have two GA floor tickets. I will also be at the Everett show the night before.
Are any of you guys going out beforehand or afterward or have any plans to meet the band?

I'll be in Portland at least part of the weekend before, but I'll be with some friends, so I'll have to see what their schedule is.  At the very least, it would be cool to try and meet up in line the day of the show.

On a side note, I just noticed that unless you're buying three tickets or less, GA is sold out, and the best seats available are already about halfway to the opposite end of the arena.  And tix have only been on sale to the general public for an hour.  Sweet.

[chemeister]

[Mike McKagan]

[Mike McKagan]

Nah, I got mine on presale through GN'R.com yesterday.  Did you get GA or seats?
