[dust of my dust]

I bought mine for both Paris and Lille...

[DeN]

oooooh yeah 

[Will]

Yes, on sale here: http://billetterie.gdp.fr/index2.php
Tomorrow on Fnac.com and Bercy.fr

I guess GN'R will confirm the concerts today.

The seatings ... Cat A, B and C: If I'm right, then A and C will get you stuck at a seat, and B makes you free to go whereever you want? ;-)

It'd be nice if they would confirm this from Guns' side, not that fussed about just buying tickets, but seeing that the venues aren't big there aren't many options. I noticed tickets are on sale at the site in the post above, but not at the others. Down side is that you'll (or me in any case) will have to pick up the tickets an hour before the show, that sucks.

[BumbleBuzz]

I'm so tempted to buy a ticket right now for this....umm....seeing them next week and in the UK in August, but this could also be good!

They can't send you tickets abroad via registered airmail?
Cat. 2 is General Admission (but no access to balconies).

[One.In.A.Million]

Paris in 2006 was a blast for me, really cool show with very passionate fans.

It'll be cool to do it again, lets hope GN'R announce these soon. 

(also in regards to the delivery info, in 2006 I got mine delivered to me. I guess they will again let you choose recorded delivery, or a print ticket option.)

[Will]

I'll try to go to those 3 concerts if I can. Z?nith arenas aren't too big (there are many in France) but usually sound isn't great (like in Bercy). I guess it means GN'R will be in Belgium, Germany and Switzerland around those dates (those 3 countries share a border with France, not far from the shows).

[BumbleBuzz]

prob gonna book a ticket for lillie, then get the eurostar there...since virtually nobody flies from  to there

[Will]

For those interested, this will be the first time GN'R play in France since 2006, and the first French "tour" since 1993! They only played one concert in Paris in 2006. This is great news for every French GN'R fan!

[wadey]

great news france 

i didnt think they would still be in europe this late in the year though, i think most people thought they would hit the US in the fall

[iloozion]

awesome news!

just need a couple of non-festival UK dates now....please!

There is Italy too... 

[Will]

Of course And I love Italy (Forza Inter!) but I didn't think about it because the French concerts are more in the northern and north-eastern part of France

But I'm confident they'll play in Italy too: probably Milan (at the San Siro/ Giuseppe Meazza? lol) and Turin at least. Maybe Rome?
