Here Today... Gone To Hell!

Via GNR Twitter;

Brrrr - http://wxch.nl/zPqvuF - Looks like we better pack a jacket or 2 ;)

They will be there for Axl's 50's birthday. This is the best place to do it, that's for sure.   : ok: :peace:

From GN'R FaceBook...


 : ok:

I wonder if I can redeem my Albany ticket at one of these NY shows; I think having a true fan there over some bougie hipster starf*cker would be positive for the audience.

The Compulsions show tonight....

I was just saying the same thing on another forum.

I really wish something definite would get announced so that us (the fans) can make plans to attend.

On twitter:

@Christymax73 thanks. right now we're focused on Monday's news. #stayTuned




Some announcement coming on Monday?

Oh boy!  Please please Hammerstein!!

and who is that?

It's from GN'Rs twitter...

The name in the beginning of the sentence just means it's in response to that person.

Maybe more European shows announcement :)

wow... awesome! I know Hovefestival in Norway, have som anouncements on Monday.. fingers X`d

Could be.

Personally I hope for an arena show in Spektrum or Telenor Arena, but that's just cos I'm not really into festivals.  :hihi:

I agree.. i really hope for Telenor Arena, since ive never been there before. Im not going to festivals anymore either. Im a father and havent got time to things like that anymore:p , but i would absolutly buy a daypass if GNR was announced to headline Hovefestival..

don't understand the obsession with Hammerstein on here.  Yes its a great place for a show, I saw GNR there 3 of the 4 shows, and I went this past Halloween weekend of 2011 to see the Danzig Legacy tour there.  I'd much rather have a show at a place like Roseland or for something more intimate the Bowery Ballroom.  Or if Axl was feeling nostalgic he could hit Webster Hall aka the Ritz from the 1988 MTV show. 

Hammerstein is by far the best venue of that kind in NYC, thats why I think people seem to be excited about it.  It is the smallest venue in the city that would still allow Guns to do the type of show they would typically do in an arena. They have a floor and balcony.  Roseland isn't terrible, but places like Webster Hall and Terminal 5 have horrible views of the stage, and are also are like 110 degrees by the time the show starts.  The rest of the venues in that size range like the Beacon or Town Hall are not GA, they are all seats.

There are countless smaller bar/ballroom's like Highline/Bowery all over the city.  Only problem with those is it will be damn near impossible for us to get in.

This is all specualtion at this point anyway we dont even know if they are playing, GNR could play a TGI Friday's for all I care, that would be just as awesome,  However I do get why people would be excited about the Hammerstein.

Hmm...Next album announcement?  :drool:

Probably confirmation of shows we already know about  :hihi:

Not that I am looking for a pat on the back or anything, but I think I might be psychic  : ok:

I'll give you a pat on the back!  So psyched!

Oh man. It would be so unbearably good if GNR played at the Ritz (is the place still around?). I still have to watch the '88 show from time to time. What a moment that was. Clearly the pinnacle for the original lineup.

It would almost be like coming full circle. Seeing these boys doing a down n dirty rock n roll show at the Ritz would such a treat.

If its been awhile You should rewatch it. Its maybe the greatest rock performance ever. It may not be the most technically flawless show but, it's the most high energy crazed dirty drunken glorious mess that is just so perfect and is just so fucking rock n roll. It knocks me the fuck out every time.

I would love this version of GNR to go there and just get fucking crazy!


- Yea I said it. Fuck YEA!

Yea you did, Buddah  : ok:
You also said the Giants were winning right?    ;D

Will there be individual show listings in the tour thread at some point?  Would love to reconnect w some folks from the Hammerstein shows in '06!

Fuck YEA (x2)  ;)

its not possible to buy ticket's for The Ritz show at the gnr.com site... what does that mean? Is the show sold out or the tix have to be bought somewhere else?

Sold out completely.
