Ticket Sales for Not In This Lifetime... Tour

[estebanf]

Has anyone seen any venues selling Pit tickets that aren't the super-expensive 'experience' ones?

After loads of worrying I feel I really need to just take a loan and come from the UK to America for one of these shows, in case it doesn't get to the UK.

I would never fly to another country for any rock band.

But I have to think they make it over there eventually.  I can't believe they are only doing this for 20 shows.

I guess you live in the USA.

If I'd live in the USA, i'd be already in bankrupcy. I feel the need to attend to every GNR show that is more or less near me. I have attended more shows outside my country than in mine. My trip to USA in june/july will be the biggest one, and i cant be any more excited! I cant tell you of anything more fun and more exciting than combining travels with GNR concerts!

I guess that would be only for second shows, right?  No LA show magically appearing on the itinerary? *fingersandtoescrossed*

Dodger Stadium. Bank on it. Probably 2 shows.  This came from basically the most reliable source there is....

So, you heard this from the band themselves?

A friend of a friend who is good friends with a member of the band. Let's just say they've done animated projects together

Not much change for Dallas. You can still get section H row 34. The 100s are basically gone now. You can get 2 together in C114. If you need more then 2 though you are out of luck. in the 200s you can get 221 or 222 depending on if you pick 79.50 or 99.50. 300s are still gone aside from single seats. 400s still 444 or 419 depending on if you want 59 or 45 dollar tickets. All of these sections are way in the back though aside from 419. So i'd estimate more then 2/3 of the seats are now sold.

Would you even fly in your own country to see a rock band?

I do fly to other countries all the time to see live music and live sports.   Its actually cheaper for me to do that, than it is to fly to most places in Canada!


You are missing out, I flew to Vegas, and for Coachella, and have in the past , when you have a great core of friends, you hook up with doing the same thing you are its fucking magical!

Absolutely not.

Maybe, and I mean *maybe* about as maybe as maybe gets, I could see scheduling some sort of vacation around the show.  Like Vegas.

If Philly was shut out of a date for this summer, I'd have driven to DC, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, or New York...whatever my closet option was.  But that's driving there and driving back.

Plane tickets, hotel accomodations...for a rock band?  Nah, no way.

A close friend flew out to Dallas for the jet cowboy game this past year. He said he loved Dallas.. and he's as liberal of a New Yorker as you can get... I'm looking in to making this trip now around the GNR show...hoping I can swing it.

ATT Stadium is unbelievable and there's a Days Inn right across the street too

This will be the first time i've been to the stadium. I'm not a Cowboy fan so i've never had a reason to go there before.

Me too, first time.
I hate Jerry and think his $75 for parking during football is outrageous, so I boycott. But not for GNR!
Section E, row 4!

The stadium is amazing, huge and beautiful. Saw the Stones there last year.
Hard to get there, since there's no public transportation and it's far from Dallas. The option is to get a taxi or drive there, which I don't think it's the best one if you plan to have a few beers.

I think even the $45 for GNR is outrageous.

We will be driving there and plan to leave very early considering it will be a weekday. Thankfully the Rangers are out of town at the time. We didn't have the extra money to buy a pre paid parking pass so we'll have to find a cash lot. Do you know if any of the AT&T stadium lots are cash lots? Or will we have to use one of the Rangers lots? An AT&T stadium lot would be preferable. I'll be able to use the shuttle bus for patrons with disabilities to get to the stadium gate and not have to wheel my chair possibly a few blocks.

Yep, that is exactly what came to mind for me as well.

I can't imagine that the band will come on before 10-10:30, and it's only 45 minutes or so drive from Dallas, so there is no need to go early during rush hour. Maybe better to wait until 7 or 8 and then head out. That should still leave plenty of time to park and find your seat.

Quick note guys. Solid sources have told me that there are second shows about to be announced in a few cities.  I don't know exactly when they will announce them or put them on sale, but it will be soon, as in the next 7-10 days.  If you are considering buying tix from a reseller for a show in one of the bigger markets I would wait a few days and see where they are adding second shows.  Once that happens, not only could you get a crack at the new date, the prices for existing dates will drop due to the larger supply.  Hope this helps!   

Has there been any other updates on this?

Also, while it does not say sold out ... Ticketmaster says only resale tickets are available for the Boston show on 7/19

I'd be shocked if they came on that late. They went on at 9:30 in Mexico City.

^If that't the case, I guess Slash traded an earlier start time for playing some songs from Chinese Democracy! 
9-9:30 is when Slash starts his shows, usually closer to 9.

LOL
Now I'm imagining the big three at a conference room going like "four CD songs for a 9:30 show minus chris pitman and one guitar player. deal?"

I agree.  That's a good trade and one I make.

But let's not start sucking each other's dicks just yet.  Let's see what happens in Detroit on 6/23.
