Seattle, WA @ Key Arena Dec 16

[arnarsi]

True, it is not like they ever came to Iceland. Therefore I had to travel to few foreign countries to see them.  I have met Jarmo couple of times and hope to see him and others prior this show.
I have never been to Seattle before, really excited, especially since I am staying there two extra days.

If there ever was a "most likely gig for Duff's Loaded to play" it would have to be the Seattle show.
Very cool.
Have fun folks!

There's some cool places to check out in Seattle.  Obviously there's Pike Place Market, Space Needle, EMP Experience Music Project.  Where Gun's is playing the Key Arena actually sits in the middle of the Seattle Center which is pretty cool.  You got the Science Center close by and some places to eat.  Other then that hope you will have fun and enjoy Seattle and the concert.  Did you get General admission tix ?

Got my GA tix. Looking forward to it. Hoping Loaded opens the show. This will be my 11th show; first of 2011.

I wonder what is a good time to line up for the show, and get close to the stage for the show ?

Your right!!  Amazing they have not, hopefully someday that happens for you guys!!  I am confident Seattle will enjoy having you visit, and wouldn't it be the icing on the cake to see Duff as well.  I had the opportunity to see "Loaded" last winter at a small venue in Seattle, I must say I really enjoyed the show!!  There is a great Art Museum in Seattle that is also very enjoyable.

Last summer I had a member from the board come to visit.  We spent some time in Seattle.  She went Parasailing, we went to the open market and had the most tastey smoked salmon in the world, also while we were there, the gent behing the counter pointed out a spot where Axl hit his head trying to catch a big fish they had randomly tossed his way lol...  We also had a great time at the Art Museum, and ate some great seafood down at the waterfront.  I know I enjoyed it and I am pretty sure she had a good time visiting Seattle, at least I hope so....

When I was in Denmark and Norway last summer we got together at a bar prior to the show, I am talking perhaps 6 hours prior or so, and the bar only played GN?R songs. That day I was surronded by people like me and the best music ever. Is it possible to to something like that in Seattle. Best would be to have it close to the venue.

[arnarsi]

anyone meeting up prior to the show?
Would be nice to hang out with people at some bar, get the bar to play GN?R music to get us in the best mood.l
I wish I could recommend a bar but I am not from there so hopefully someone takes the iniative and organizes something for the rest of us.

[GNR4L]

I thought about planning something.... but I probably won't get into Seattle at 7 at the latest.  Brother can't get work off that day, plus its a hour n half drive for me.

Jay-Z and Kayne are playiny Tacoma dome same night. I could totally see Axl checking that out and starting the guns show even later then normal...

[axlmanatee]

Just an interesting note: Dec. 16th will be the 25th anniversary of the  Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide EP being released, maybe they will play a song in its honor. 

[GNR4L]

Any news on who's opening yet ?

Aggree on that!

[LIGuns]

guess Loaded wont be covering any GN'R songs in their set...But perhaps Duff will play a song, So Fine, or two!!

Like I mentioned previous, gonna be in a suite this time round with 14 other family and friends.  Have an awesome room for the night less than a mile away, with the suite came parking passes and vip entry so no standing in line, and last but not least my best friend and her husband are flying in to share this special moment in time with me.  I thank the good lord above for making this possible, especially in such hard times.  On another note we were told "BuckCherry"!!  And on one more note, who ever is the most familiar with Seattle should establish a place to gather and meet each other, I think it is such a great part of the GNR/HTGTH experience....  Would really love to meet Arnarsi, after all the gent is coming from Iceland...  Regardless hope each and everyone of you enjoys yourselves to the max!!

[arnarsi]

I have twice been before on a HTGTH get together prior to a show. The first time was in Oslo last year and it was just simply the best day of my life, well except maybe when I became a father each time;) but seriously, we need to find a bar that will play GN?R songs and host us the before the show.
I am not familiar with the area so hopefully someone can take the iniative and set things up or else I will just find it hehe.

See you on Friday.

Just confirmed that Loaded is opening in Seattle and Vancouver.  http://blogs.seattleweekly.com/reverb/duff_mckagan/

Any ideas what time Guns have been hitting the stage on the North American tour?  And how long have the shows been lasting?

[damnthehaters]

They go on around 11 and play till around 2.

Fucking ! awesome ! can't wait for Friday !

[arnarsi]

In case someone wants to meet up me and my buddy will be having some drinks prior to the show. We haven?t fully decided where but if you have any suggestions please put them here. In the meantime, via my google search I found cool places like The Funhouse at 206 5th Avenue North, Ozzie's at 105 West Mercer Street and a traditional irish pub called Ts McHugh?s at 21 Mercer Street.

So, here are some suggestions and if anyone is familiar with any of those bars please comment and we might find us a place to meet.

See you on Friday.
