GNR at Hard Rock Vegas! An Evening of Destruction. No Trickery! May 21-June 7

[adydas78]

Just got tickets for the 28th (my birthday  ) and the 31st. GA on the floor for Wed night and relaxing having a few (many) drinks at a table on Sat. I'll go Friday night too, just deciding on what tickets to go with.

I'll be at the 28th show too. GA, first entry. See you there.

[Summer Romance]

My wife and I will repeat our whirlwind weekend as in 2012; flying in from PVD on the 30th, table seats that night, early GA the next night, flying home the 1st.  Staying at the Hard Rock.

I will be heading to the 31st show driving all the way from northern saskachawan canada. It will be a twenty plus hour drive non stop with a little detour to grab some goodies in colorado :smoking:will be traveling with my two older brothers and my best friend. My oldest bro keith who hasent seen gnr since 1993 in saskatoon is the one who got me into gnr when i was only eleven, and my other brother kyle who i must admit i hated when i was young because he would pick on me alot growing up,and would bug me about being such a big gnr fan just finally admitted to me all these years is that he loves gnr. And my best friend who was a big fan of the original band, and didnt give the new lineup a chance until i took him to see them in saskatoon in 2010 front row, and to this day loves this line up more than the original because of there energy and great performance they put on that night in saskatoon and lists chinese democracy as one of his favoright albumes. I cant wait for this road trip to vegas, ive been to the usa once before and that was to the last residency and i flew with my wife so this time traveling with my best friend and my two brothers over 1800 miles one way should be crazy

[banachkevin]

also i was at work when my wife ordered the tickets to the show for me GA. but she didnt get me the early access because she said they were not avaliable when she ordered them. So what i was wondering is there a way to upgrade them or any tips on how to beat the lines? i really want to be at the front for this one and give it my all Jarmo?

This is called going the distance.Have fun.Friends of mine saw a show from the last residency and loved it.They said it was the best concert they've been to.That's coming from people who went to Vegas for other activities and took in the concert on a whim.

Not sure if they'll sell upgrade packages. They have done so in the past.
So fingers crossed they will this time too.

Jarmo, could you try and find out why the VIP tickets have become unavailable to Nightrain members. Thanks in advance.

I believe they were a limited thing. As the e-mail from gunsnroses.com stated: VIP packages will become available for a limited time only
The ticket links now take you to axs.com, in other words gunsnroses.com doesn't sell the actual tickets anymore.

Now, it's still possible they might offer upgrade packages like they've done in the past.

That's awesome! 

[Siamese Democracy]

Andrew "Dice" Clay has ties to GNR.  He opened for them in 1992 at the Rose Bowl.  Clay's act is pretty vulgar.  If you bring your wife, don't sit in the front row or you may come home in a body bag 

[GnR-NOW]

I saw Dice walking around the Joint during the last residency

[GnR-NOW]

Jarmo,

Do you think there will be an opening band on the 31st since the opening time is listed at 11:45?

Jarmo,

Good question.

I guess with that start time, it would be late start time for GN'R.

I was a huge fan back in the day.  But either his act got tired or I grew up, not sure which.

Dice's sons have a band that open for his show. They probably know Paradise City.

Last time Axl went on Kimmel to promote the Vegas residency, maybe the other Jimmy's going to get a crack at interviewing him.

VIP upgrades are available on GNR.com, trying to figure out to purchase it since I already bought tix for one of the shows.
