the GUNSNROSES.COM thread

[AxlReznor]

For all you know Merck could be on the phone trying to sort it right now. ?Or whoever the webmaster is... just calm the fuck down. ?It's pre-sale! ?You know what that means? ?It means you're still gonna be able to get tickets tomorrow!

[nonlinear]

i'm pissed off because presale has started on ticketmaster (and now selling balcony seats), the alleged gunsnroses.com presale isn't working, and i am at work and have a ton of shit to do and can't really afford to sit around on HTGTH all day waiting to get news.  so, i had to go ahead and pay $80 fucking dollars for shitty ass balcony seats, otherwise I risk getting even worse seats once public sale opens up.

there is no reason this band can't get their shit together and act professionally like other bands.  hell, even small time indie rap bands run more smoothly than this.  fuck this shit.

Not to mention, i've been a fan since 1987 or 1988, and stuck with them 'through all the fucking shit'

 

The tickets that will be onsale on Saturday through TM will be much better than any radio station presale. It's all a gimmick to get people listening to the radio station. That's all.

a.

Really?  how do you know this?  any why didn't someone say this earlier.  cause i ended up buying these seats for both calgary and sdmonton 

[roadapples]

The girl at Ticketmaster-Charge by phone said "they are available for general sale" on Saturday?

I know from experience. Presales section off certain areas (usually one lower, one in the middle, and a couple at the back). It also helps sell tickets up in the higher balconies. I've been trying for Calgary on both TM and the new GN'R site with no luck, but I know that on Saturday there will be all the available tickets left for the sections up front.

Another thing to note about buying tickets, you can usually get the best seats the day before or the day of the show. If anyone ever tells you it's sold out, it's BS, no matter what artist. Usually the building gets the design of the stage and sound booth the week of the show. From there they can allocate tickets in areas they keep blocked in case the band requires a bigger sound booth or extra stage platforms. I can usually get tickets in the Flames players box the day of the show for any sold out show.

that site looks worse than mygnr.com

Better than gnronline.com?

lol yeah 

[Buddha_Master]

I love the site...Just happy to have another GNR home, and this is only the 1st step...The only thing that nags me is the GNR reloaded section on the lower left makes it sound like Ringo Starr's musical revue or something...Not bad to introduce old fans who may not be familiar, but it certainly doesn't do much to deter all the "not a band" nonsense.

Dude...I don't hear any sound coming from the site? explain again?

The words and section remind him of another, similar item used by Ringo Starr.  It 'sounds' the same - no noise involved, though

  You're funny.

  I like...

[gibb]

There is no actual sound. ?He's saying the way it describes the band ("Axl will be joined by a gourp of rock n' roll all-stars") kind of gives creedence to some criticisms we've heard. ?

lol yeah... the website could be a bit better, but I know it will improve with time... there?s just one thing that makes me sad and I hope they do somethin about it... they do the register thing only to American ppl, like the contact number... they ought to allow international information on it.

I am surprised there is nothing in there about the referencing of any former band members being strictly prohibited . Me thinks the reigns will be awful tight over there if the site ever really gets off the ground.

[Tyson]

I happen to think the site is pretty fucking cool. ?Anyone that is already bitching needs to shut up, live in the present and count their blessings. ?

[lennonisgod]

I'm actually really happy with the site and how things are going right now. This is what we have been waiting for for so many fucking years, yet people still fucking cry about it. I don't get some of you.  All I can do is thank myself that I'm not like you and letting this wonderful shit that is happening right now, GET ME DOWN LIKE YOU FUCKERS!!! I don't remember ever being this excited concerning this band and I can't wait for what's to come.  What I can wait for is how so many of you will continue the fucking bitching forever, even once the album is out.  Stop being such pussies and crying like babies about the smallest of details and fucking enjoy this time as a GN'R fan. How is that too much to ask??
