Guns N' Roses playing Las Vegas April 8th and 9th!!!! / Fan meeting at NYNY 4/7

[JAEBALL]

Ge this... I am trying to watch the Pacquiao fight at MGM around 8 and then zoom over to the GNR show on the 8th !!! So I would love to know around when GNR will start... i don't want to risk missing the lights go out. Will be epic If I can do both in one night.

Just a heads up, no one will have that fight.

The deal is, any place that wants to show it, they have to pay the full PPV for every seat in he place.  And I mean every seat.  Every seat at the bar, every seat at every table, all of it.  No one does this.

I've been out there the past few years on the same weekend Floyd fought.  It was always the same story.  Just not cost effective.

Oh I know... I meant I might try to actually go to the fight ... and then shoot over from MGM to the new T Mobile arena, I figure the fight should end around 930 and GNR wont go on till about 1030. I am not a huge boxing fan so I won't spend a fortune for it, but if I find a cheap seat I will go for the experience.

[gnrrock]

I don't know if this has been discussed but what time you think they go on for the Vegas shows? I am thinking about flying out for one night and flying back next day.

Well the ticket says 930... so maybe 10-1030 the lights will go out?

I cant imagine they will start too much later considering the magnitude of this and the fact that it's the buildings opening night....

That sounds like the perfect night. Didn't even think about the Pacman vs. Bradley fight and I'm a huge boxing fan. If there are some early KO's on the undercard you might be able to make it work. I'm thinking the Pacman fight goes the distance though. Either way I would think you would be out by 10pm. Perfect if there is an opening act that you aren't in to.

Yeah if I get confirmation that there is an opening act and they don't start till 930... then it should definitely work. We'll see.

The next 80 days or so are going to be torture!

Would be a hell of a night, for sure.

You happy with the selection of Bradley?  The first fight was the worst robbery of this decade, and Manny clearly won the rematch.  Do we need this a 3rd time?

[jarmo]

Q: Do we need to see you guys discuss boxing in a thread about two upcoming GN'R shows?
A: No.

-> Fun N' Games

So move them.

[allwaystired]

There are 2000 (!!!!) tickets on stubhub for each night of these gigs.

Seems as if the presale has just been used by touts to buy them all (2000 each night has got to be most of the presale I would think- about ten per cent of the capacity), which of course begs the question- are many fans actually going?

Inevitable, that happening.

Surprised its quite that many though.

[allwaystired]

Inevitable, but there wasn't a mad rush for the tickets really - pre-sale tickets still available I think- so I do wonder how many actual fans have bought tickets........

[jarmo]

So move them.

Him asking if he could go do something else before the GN'R show and still make it on time is related to the GN'R show.
You talking about only that other thing, isn't about the GN'R show.

Thanks for playing.

I'am totally disappointed that I won't be able to attend these shows I really can't afford to go to Vegas   been to both Vegas residency. I'am really hoping they tour Canada. Feeling really bummed out

[ThatGuy]

First time in Vegas, first time seeing SLASH with GNR, see you all Saturday, April 9th on my 35th birthday.  AHHH AHHH AHHH!

[LongGoneDay]

So as I predicted, even though I am not full throttle excited, as I would be if Izzy/Steven were confirmed to appear, my interest levels at the prospect of catching them in Vegas are increasing incrementally.

Anyone got any info/details regarding the AXS presale that starts today?

I think it would be hard not to have things go that way.

You are only human.

If they do a full blown tour I'm sure Canada will be included. Axl has been super cool to us Canucks in the past, hell we even got that Canadian tour when CD came out where they hit pretty much every stop coast to coast. The only other bands off the top of my head who have done that are Pearl Jam (2011) and Ozzy (2010), and Guns did more dates than either of them.

Of course our dollar being shit doesn't help things.

Hi all,

The AXS AEG Live presale begins today at 10am PST. The password you need to access the sale is: AEGGnFnR

Good luck!

[dmathski]

Killing me not be able to go to these shows...  Hoping to get a stream of choachella   

[jemin]

Was anyone able to get tix through the AEG presale?  Looks like they are almost gone already.

[icpillusions]

Nope AXS pre sale sold out

[Ginger King]

Yeah, I was able to get 2 in Section 6.  Was hoping for GA but they were all sold out.  Maybe they're saving some GA tickets for tomorrow's general sale.  Who knows.
