Yes that was a rumor back in the day. I'm of the opinion that that song became IRS, but god only knows. I believe it was in Rolling Stone back in the day where Axl talked about the song "oklahoma" and how it was about a court case or litigation going on in his life and all that absurdity while at the same time the Oklahoma City bombing happened... I also believe that a sound tech or someone like that thought the song would be played at the HOB show in 01, only to be proven wrong. My memory is fuzzy as that was a long time ago.
Anyways, I think it's cool that GNR are playing in places they haven't been to for awhile

I'm pretty sure that Axl said the song title Oklahoma was changed to Berlin in the chats he did.

I couldn't tell if he was joking or not when he said that, same with the Jackie Chan title.  |

Wrong. "IRS" is NOT "Oklahoma." |

I hadn't even thought of that being a joke! Sure could be for all we know--
The article wasn't bad. Dwelled on the past a little but it was all right. The dude did some research for sure.
Maybe I missed it, but you'd think the date and location of the show would belong in the article.

I am trying to check out tickets. Apparently they are sold through OU and you need a password to buy or even look. Anyone know the password? This is a crazy ass system.

I usually do not like Ticketmaster but now I wish Ticketmaster was involved, but neither it nor Live Nation has the show Oklahoma show listed.
Anybody going who can give advice how to get a ticket?

Never mind, I figured it out. You have to click around a bit and ignore the request for promotional code.

It's Oklahoma.
I would assume that you can buy alcohol in the venue, just not bring any in.

I just looked, it appears the exception for the GNR show is they will be selling beer only. |

Wow. When I said "it's Oklahoma" I was just kidding. But I guess the correct answer really is "it's Oklahoma." I wonder if it is a conservative state.  Thank goodness for exceptions!  |

"Alcohol will be sold at the concert."  Being a European that's kind of hard to understand why it needs a special statement. Sounds like a great night though |

They usually don't have alcohol at any events on campuses in the US, it's a ridiculous rule that they think will stop underage drinking among college students.
