Calgary, AB - Concert Discussion

Alright!

SHOWTIME!!   

[faldor]

Yeah let's cool it with the arguing.  The show has begun!  I'm getting myself a beer.  I haven't drank all week.  It's time to break that trend.  No better time than after midnight on a Saturday with GNR kicking off a show.

nice to see the band starting early

nice to see the band starting early  

Yeah, just after 10pm.  Good stuff!

[helenluna]

Pretty sure the no camera policy is a venue thing, it does not come from GnR camp. The band is not to blame for what security does. But we can ask Fernando tomorrow about that "the band told" thing.

But the show is on!

40min ahead of schedule tonight.

I was just told that there was a request by the band to "check phones at the door". I'm not quite sure what that means but I asked for clarification and haven't heard back yet.

I wonder if they're somehow banning phones at the shows?!

Doubt it. 

I would HIGHLY doubt that.  That would be utter chaos, to get 10,000 people their phones back at the end of the show.  There must be more to the story.

Bono said they let him keep his phone but he had to leave his camera with them. He has no reason to make it up

That is totally different than what you said earlier.

Did you see the part where I said I was going to ask for clarification? The part I just posted is the clarification I received.

Yes I did, and personnally, I don't care really.  NO BANDS will make chek security for cell phones.  Everybody has a cell phone.  So taking away 15000 cell phones is a total nonsense, and anybody that tries to make you beleive otherwise for any stupid reason or for his own personal agenda against the band (to start rumours AGAIN) is a non sense too!

but in Winnipeg, no pic are authorized with cell phone, iphone ...

[Kittyrock]

I am excited.    I was listening to some Guns songs earlier. The Spaghetti Incident.  Blasting Down On The Farm. I   that song.  Keep checking in here 2 see how things r going.  i have not checked Axl's Twitters yet ,which is odd cause I am a twitter junkie Hope it all goes well tonight.  cheers  

[faldor]

I'm watching the videos from Osaka with the corresponding songs being played.  And it's AWESOME!!!

What will I do though if they play "Down On The Farm", Riad, or some other song they haven't played yet though.  We'll cross that bridge when/if we get there.
