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

The waiting room isn't first come, first serve. You get the chance to login anywhere within 30 minutes before the show and after that it's all a gamble, equal chances. You can open up to 3 browsers with one account (something I read later but didn't do). I made two separate accounts with separate emails. Opened chrome and Firefox and with one I was ready as soon as the waiting room opened and the other I guess 10-15 minutes before the sale started.

I didn't even know about that waiting room until I logged in myself 30 minutes before. Anyway, I think I got really lucky because I was able to buy tickets for both shows, in both windows, right at the start.

I'm really happy, can't wait :-)

Yeah you totally lucked out!  Thats awesome.  I really hate the method AXS used, that random nonsense sucks, as it seems a lot of people got locked out of this show.  I prefer ticketmasters method, it goes to who wants it most.  You know who wants it most?  The person that can hit refresh at the exact moment before they go on sale!

Haha yeah, I guess online sales never really goes fair. I mean standing in line for hours, like back in the old day ghehe That's fair and square! First person to be there gets the first ticket!

Oh yeah I remember doing that back in the day.  Honestly that was the most fair.

I remember standing in line for 5 hours for u2 (we've all done something stupid, right?! 😉) and with just 10 people left in front of me it was completely sold out :/

I remember back in 88 when GNR were playing The Felt Forum (after I had seen the Ritz a few months before)  , and I cut out of school with a friend and we drove to the Ticketmaster at a video store on Long Island and I was freaking out cause I thought for sure they would have already sold out, it was 2 hrs after they went on sale, but to my delight I was able to get tickets, never forget that show. Crushed right up against the stage, left that show dripping wet, all the way home on the LIRR and still was soaking wet.

My first concert  was Guns N' Roses at Nassau Coliseum. My high school friend and his brother got themselves tickets. I then got my own at TicketMaster in the Willowbrook Mall. No lines whatsoever. I just walked up and got the ticket.   The day of the concert, my friend's brother drove us from NJ to Long Island. He decided to take my ticket and give me his. He was a bit older than my friend and I.  He didn't feel comfortable with me sitting by myself. That was the first time when Guns N' Roses started showing up late for concerts.

Tickets for first night still available on axs for those that need them....

[Bazfreak]

Does anyone know the amount of tickets put out for sale? Internet says the arena capacity is15-20k for general concerts.

Reading how Axs does it i don't think i like that. I hope they use ticketmaster for the larger rumored US tour. With AXS do you have to call for accessible seating? Does anyone know?

There's an own link for accessible seating on the main event site. Not sure if it lets you book online.


As for using Ticketmaster, AEG Live uses AXS while Live Nation uses (is) TM.

Latest Billboard rumors says that Live Nation will be involved in the tour alongside AEG.

I see, in my experience with TM at least it varies by venue if you can order those online or if you have to call. Hopefully it would be TM for a show local to me.

It beats paying a scalper.

End-stage concerts have between 12,000 and 18,000.

Since GN'R are using the full length of the court and all of the upper bowl, I assume it's close to 18,000.

As great as the Up Close n Personal tour was...

There is something to be said about a sold out arena just waiting to explode... I can't wait to be part of this crowd...

Has GNR ever had a show with the crowd behind the stage like it appears to be for this ? I don't think so.

Well I was one of the lucky ones. Grabbed a GA ticket for the Saturday night as soon as the sale started. I think it is all to do with the speed of your net connection.

That means I have a spare Saturday night ticket - Section 7 seat. Not amazing but definitely not the worst. Would much rather sell to a genuine fan than into the secondary market especially as I have been following the band since around 98.

Please PM me if interested, not looking to make a profit. I am sure the boss wouldn't want this thread being hijacked into a ticket selling forum.

Hope all you peeps got what you wanted and that even if you didn't you still make it out there.

This is the greatest rock n roll band of all time. See you all there.

I think the sections behind the stage are closed off.

Well, so far the sold out arena is sold out to a bunch of scalpers. I've spent the day today trying to get a reasonably priced ticket in GA or section P1. Didn't happen. Well, it is what it is, not gonna spend a fortune to make a scalper rich. And I need to get down to Vegas too, flight, hotel, ain't cheap. Too bad, would have been epic I have the same birthday as Izzy, April 8th, would have been the birthday of my life...

Anyways, everybody who's going have fun out there. And if you film this somehow, I'll buy the bootleg, I promise. Rather pay for that than to a scalper.
