Anyone have any clue how ticket sales are going so far?
I emailed someone I know at the HR, and their reply was "Great so far!!!"
Good to hear! I hope all of the shows sell out...can't wait til November 14th and 17th!!
I hope all the shows sell out at the very last minute, allowing me to buy tickets to them all at the last minute, since I'm broke and it'll be a ticket by ticket process, hahahaha.

If there is anyone planning on going to one or more shows from the UK, can you give me a shout please.
Crunching the numbers and pretty optimistic about getting out to Vegas, would be cool to swap plan ideas.

I don't know how that would work because the VIP package is through Ground CTRL / gunsnroses.com and the Ticket & Room package is through the HRH in Las Vegas right?

That's what they said (Ground CTRL) when I called, but I mean we have the tickets, all we need is our name on that oh so satisfying guest list.
I really hope it's available because I would love to meet the band again and get all the treats along with it.

I think you might be confusing things.
The GN'R VIP package is for people who actually bought a GN'R VIP package. They get merchandise, access to a Meet & Greet with band members and a ticket to the show.
The logistics of that are handled by Ground CTRL.
The guestlist is for the bands family and friends.

Yeah I know, I was just thinking that after you bought the VIP package, it would be added to some guest list or something. What I asked them was "Do you guys sell upgrades for VIP if I already have a ticket?" and the guy said "let me see... ... ... no I looked on the site and it doesn't look like we have that available yet, it might be available soon but I don't really know."

Congrats !!
Anyone else doing VIP on the 9th?
Plus how will VIP for the M&G work? When I had VIP for the The Fillmore Silver Spring show they had a seperate line. Will that be the case for Vegas? Super excited !!!!!

I'm curious as to what time they'll go on. Just found it interesting that the weekday shows are listed at 9, and the others at 10. Not that I care, the later starts don't bother me one bit, I just don't want to be late myself. Over New Years I managed to show up 5 minutes before showtime and got great spots up front. One part of me says all the shows are gonna start at the same time regardless what the ticket says, but then a tiny part thinks the Hard Rock talked them into a schedule. I suppose I'll just show up according to the ticket time on Halloween and plan the rest of the shows around that.
Also, was wondering about the "VIP Party Room" ......is an open bar included in that? I was lucky enough to get after show passes for a couple shows on the last tour, and they just had soda. (The only reason I ask is, for the (over) price of drinks at the Hard Rock....the VIP package could be worth that price just in booze if it's available.

NY UCAP shows - no drinks, no food, no M+G, no VIP room
Vegas 12/30/11 show - supposed to get 2 tickets for free drinks (one free drink per ticket), but they gave us 4 if I remember correctly because hardly anyone came, the only food was cheese and crackers, the VIP room was very plain, the M+G took place in another room that was quite nice
Vegas 12/31/11 show - 2 tickets for free drinks (there was a lot of people this night), the VIP room was the M+G room from the night before (really nice), the food was great
Overall the VIP experience has been interesting. For the NY shows it was great because it was winter time and they allowed early access. So basically you showed up 15 minutes before the doors opened, they let you in and you got right up front, and I am talking against the rail here for every show. But for the Ritz show it was a bit chaotic to say the least, however I don?t see this being an issue with the Vegas shows.
Now for the Vegas shows things were a bit different. From what I recall there was no early entry, you were let in the same time as everyone else, but at least you were amongst the first people going in. Still no guarantee of rail though if you wanted to get a drink, go to the bathroom, get a shirt, etc. The real problem was the M+G occurred during Bach?s set. Not only did you miss Bach, but you had to give up your spot too. For the first night the M+G was much more relaxed since there was maybe ten of us. It was more like mingling with the band members for a while and then doing a picture at the end. You were allowed to bring in one item to get signed. The 2nd night was similar, but there was no mingling since there were so many of us. When the M+G was ready to happen we all left the VIP room. Then 10 of us were called in at a time to get one item signed and take pics. Definitely not an open bar though. Of course, this could all be quite different this time. Hope this helps!

Cool, thanks! I doubt I'll to a VIP, since I can pay for 2.5 shows for the same price, and money is an issue. But if for some reason I can't make all the shows, I'll maybe try it out with the saved money, providing there's any left. (I really just want the laminate

As far as I know, and as of right now, the idea is to let the VIPs into the arena when the M&G is done. If they wish. Or they can stay in the VIP room.
