[Rocket Killer]

im sooo excited its soo? sooon..... they should be announcing a new opener soon or maybeeee guns will play an extra hour either way ill be in line at 9am if you see a guy wearing a Kapp sigma shirt come say hi!

I'm going to be in line at 4pm

[Cleopatra2U]

Thanks. I own you one....lol guess I gotta pick up a disposable camera.Hope to see some people from this board.

Haha...? You don't owe me anything...? I'd been meaning to call anyway...? I guess the best thing to do would be to ask at the box office on the day of the show if even disposable cameras are allowed.? I don't know where in my outfit I could hide a camera (no place is 100% safe from groping security ), and I'd rather not waste even $5.99 or whatever the thing cost.

The last time I went to this venue (2-3 years ago, to see Good Charlotte with my friend and his teenage daughter) they made me cough up my cigarette lighter even though I wasn't on the floor and even though they have a designated smoking area.? The guard did ask me if I wanted a claim ticket to pick it back up after the show, but I told her I really wasn't worried about a 99-cent lighter.? ($5.99 yes, $0.99 no.? LOL.)? So, if you want to smoke at this show, be sure to bring matches.

Hey guys,

just wanted to introduce myself. I am new on here but I am defiantly going to the show! I saw the one on the 5th in NJ and it was awesome! I am showing up early and defiantly stopping by the wharf rat, so if you see a tall chick in a black leather outfit say hi! Looking forward to meeting some of you very soon.

[marino95]

Anybody feel like switching a reserved seat for a GA ticket?  I have a single GA ticket and would like to exchange for a seat - if you have a good seat, PM me and we can meet up before the show.

MSG show was great ! Looking forward to Monday night !

PS I bought the GNR hat 30 bucks and the black GNR shirt with the tour dates 35 bucks.  Total rip off but fuck it, if you're a fan alittle GNR merch wont hurt.

[Cleopatra2U]

Only two days now!? Is everyone excited?? I know I am!? (Especially since they didn't play my favorite song, "Rocket Queen", at the Garden last night -- maybe a better chance of it being played on Monday? hopeful grin -->? )

I tried to put together a little list of who will be coming to the Wharf Rat before the show:

jarmo
anythinggoes
sandman
inlikeflynn420
Cleopatra2U
elenathedevil
MR.BROWNSTONE
gnfnr2006
cheeser (?)
vedderone (will be in line)
RocketKiller (will be in line)
GnR-NOW (is ditching the pre-show party for some girl hehe)

Anyone else?

Also, I know that at least four five rooms at the Days Inn are booked by GNR fans.? I wonder if the hotel is ready for this.? LOL.

[GnR-NOW]

I wont be able to make to the Wharf Rat.  But I will be at the show.  The garden was absolutely packed when GNR came on, not one seat open.  I wouldnt be surprised if the show gets packed right before GNR comes on.  I dont know how the Suicide Girls are going to help the overall appeal of the tour.  But I have no doubt GNR will always be awesome.  Does anyone know how the sound is at the arena?

[gnfnr2006]

Hey all.....I will be the Balt also...me and my girl, a friend of hers and maybe a frind of mine. I guees we are headn to the Rat. We are stayn at the Days in also so there will be plenty of partyn !!! 

I went to the show in Greesnboro NC. GNR from 1145 to 215, 25 songs....FUCKN AWESOME !! we had to see another.

I see you all at the pre-show.  The Days Inn is not going to know what hit them.  Hey far of the walk is it from the   Wharf Rat to the arena again? 

[Cousin It]

Add another room to the Days Inn list, as that's where I am staying. Should be there early enough to hit the Wharf Rat too!!

[GnR-NOW]

Tomorrow NIGHT !!! LETS GO !!! I think I will be calling out of work on Tuesday , we'll see

[EFISH]

Cleopatra4u at www.gnr2k.com will be texting me updates so Ill start an update thread for it tomorrow. Just wanted to give ya'll a heads up. 

[cheeser]

Worst part about this is Im still not sure if i'm gonna be at the show or not.  My friend wants to go, but just doesnt want to spend all that money.  I offered to pay for part of his ticket, but he says he doesn't want to be a "charity case."  So when I get a final decision from him (hopefully in the next few hours), I'll ultimately decide whether i'll be there or not. 

I know its kinda late for these questions, but help is appriciated:

1.  If i buy tickets at the venue tomorrow, will I still be charged the ticketmaster service charge?
2.  How does the will call window work, and does it work well?  never used one, and I will if my friend decides to go.



p.s.

AXL, PLEASE PLAY ROCKET QUEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GnR-NOW]

I wasnt sure about going to this show for the longest time.  Money was a concern because I didnt want to spend another 90 bucks on a ticket.  And I was going to the MSG show with a bunch of friends, no one wanted to go to this show.  But then I figured hell why not get a 50 ticket, go and just chill and enjoy the music.  So thats what im going to do, and who knows if CD will ever get released, but atleast we can control if we see them while they are touring right ?

[Cleopatra2U]

Hey far of the walk is it from the? ?Wharf Rat to the arena again??

Two blocks...? The first building south of the arena (box office side) is the Days Inn...? Just walk one more block south past the hotel and turn right and you will see the Wharf Rat.

I imagine there will be more than just us IntarWeb GNR fans there, so I hope I'll be able to discern you all from the rest...? I know what Jarmo and anythinggoes look like from their pictures in the gallery, but everyone else...? ?? LOL.? I'll be wearing my white "One in a Million" t-shirt with Axl on the front and the GNR Lies cover on the back, black mini skirt, fishnets, and black knee-high boots (80's rock-chick attire but without the teased-up hair LOL), so if you see me, holler!? ?

1.? If i buy tickets at the venue tomorrow, will I still be charged the ticketmaster service charge?
2.? How does the will call window work, and does it work well?? never used one, and I will if my friend decides to go.

p.s.

AXL, PLEASE PLAY ROCKET QUEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IDK about the service charge, but being as the show is NOT sold out, you should be able to walk up to the box office and buy tickets...? I'd suggest calling them first to make sure, tho: 410.347.2020.? And I concur with your p.s.!? ?

Cleopatra4u at www.gnr2k.com will be texting me updates so Ill start an update thread for it tomorrow. Just wanted to give ya'll a heads up.?

Yep, Cleopatra2u will be providing updates 4u!? Thanks, GFISH, for offering to be on the other end.? ??


EDIT: correction in red

[cheeser]

Ok, my friend is a no show, so i'll be a game day decision....Come tomorrow by 3pm i hope to be on my way down to Baltimore...

anyway, for those interested, here's a link to baltimore's weather:
http://www.weather.com/weather/local/USMD0018?from=search_city

looks to be light rain for most of the day until about 4pm, then just clouds and sprinkles for the rest of the night.
High 62 F
Low 54 F
not a great day, but It is fairly warm, not really cold, and there shouldn't be any heavy rain

[Cleopatra2U]

^ That's good news.  I didn't want to have to lug a heavy jacket around all night.  Thanks!
