December 2 - Minneapolis, MN @ Target Center

[Tank]

Anyone notice where it says "no cameras" on the ticket?  What do you think security will do if you bring a camera in?

"You can't have that in here."  They won't let you in, unless you lose it.  You can try and sneak it in.

I heard a nasty rumor that Night Train is no longer being produced, that sucks....that was a major part of my pre-grame warmup for 02.

Wrong. They make it, but not many stores carry it. I do, however, have some friends that are coming down from Grand Forks, ND for the show, and at Happy Harrys bottle shop they carry it. What we always do, is get a bottle, crank up Nightrain, and the bottle has to be gone by the time the song is over. lol

So I will be riding the Nightrain on the way to the show The only thing that would make it better is if they let me bring it in and we got to drink it during the song, but that'll never happen.

Good ole happy harry's....I have frequented that place many of times back in the college days.  They used to have football players work there so I could get the goods w.out an ID......fun times.

Hah. I wanna hit up some 'train. Anyone wanna let me get a 'sip' or two?

Sure, if you catch us at the right time. We're gettin a limo and going to the Hard Rock at 5, probably stay there till 7 then go to the Target Center. But it'll probably be gone before we go in the Hard Rock.

Even if you miss out on it, your not missin much...the stuff is horrible. It has to be absolutly ice cold to make it somewhat drinkable. I only drink it with this partucular group of friends, and we only drink it to the song. It's not something I'd buy regulary, lol

I received my tickets today!!! I am so excited.

[axlrosegnr]

I have a question....whats a good restaraunt/bar within walking distance from the Target Center that accepts reservations?  I have a group of about 12 people, so I'd like to give the place some advance notice. I tried for reservations at the Hard Rock for 5 pm, but the EARLIEST I can get in there is 7:20, and I wanna be at the venue by that time.

Roughly 1,674,000,000 milliseconds to GNR!

Does anyone know how this show is selling?

I think it is selling ok.  It is tough to tell, since there is really know way to tell how the floor is selling.  The lower level reserved is prob 70-80% sold out, and I am sure some cheaper nosebleed were sold as well. This show won't be a sell out, but it could end up being a respectable crowd.  My guess is they will draw 5-7 thousand.

So, is everyone going to the Hard Rock or is there another place people are going?

[Mr. Redman]

Hmm...still haven't got my tix, I'm starting to worry.

I'm not going to the Hard Rock, but then I don't plan on going in to Target Center till later.. depending on who the opening band ends up being.   There are plenty of places within walking distance:

Anyone have a single ticket they are looking to get rid of? I have one more person who wants to go to the show.  I am looking for a ticket section 129, rows D,E, or F.

[JuicySwoos]

Does anyone know anything about these special offers they are running on TM for this show?  It looks like you can get tickets for 18 bucks if you know the code.

[JuicySwoos]

If anyone is undecided in going to this show.  You can get tickets for 40% off!

[Mr. Redman]

Just got my tickets!
