Guns N' Roses announce February 2012 tour!

[Bodhi]

Ive been there 3 times.  I was in the basement for the "Chinese Democracy" release party and another time to see a punk band.  I was upstairs once to see Liam Gallagher's new band  Beady Eye, it is really small.  I can't wait to see what they do that night.  It felt smaller than it looks in the picture, as most places do.

As I mentioned previously, I saw NIN there on their Wave Goodbye tour.  It was a capacity crowd much like how this will be.  Its going to be TIGHT in there with not much room to move around (until the show starts of course).  Plus it does get hotter than hell.  The NIN show was in August (I think) so naturally it is hotter in the summer, but it was well over 100 degrees in there and I sweat so much that my shirt was stuck to me by the end.  I am planning on wearing shorts and a light jacket to the show.

I've been there a bunch of times (I was also there for the CD listening party!!)....the main stage area reminds me a LOT of an small Art Deco movie house.  Not one of those huge palatial theaters, but one of those tiny little "artsy" places....or an old fashioned dance hall (which, really, is what it was/is).

You could be ALL the way in the back of the place, and you'd feel closer than you would in the 5th row of most arenas.  It's small, intimate, interesting....AWESOME.  You can practically feel the history bleeding through the walls in the place.

When the main stage area gets rowdy.....it fells like nothing else I've ever experienced before.  I'm sure some of that is that you're up on the 2nd floor....but some of it is just the acoustics and the way the building "breathes" (for lack of a better term).

Those of you going to the Ritz/Webster Hall are in for a treat....that's for sure.

It's a good point:

Both Roseland AND Webster Hall get pretty warm. Roseland offers a little more breathing room, though (if you can get to the back).  I don't know if I'd go with shorts...but certainly a light jacket (which you could take off and tie around yourself) and T-shirt.  You'll still be sweat soaked by the end of the night...but you won't actually roast.

I've seen folks, in both places, hit the ground (granted, it was summer time in both cases) because of the heat......

Just wait until the show starts and people start jumping.  You will feel the floor moving beneath you literally.  Its somewhat scary until you get used to it.  

I cannot tell everyone how excited I am about the Webster show.  I live a 15 minute walk away.  Pregame at the apartment like I did for NIN and walk down to the show.

[russtcb]

Someone on twitter thinks it's the Hiro Ballroom in Fernando's tweet.

[Evita]

It sure looks like that from the pictures on Google.  Same logo / sign on the lamps.

[CIAT]

Hmm, surprise show???

[Evita]

Hey why not? Who knows.

That makes sense - maybe for the afterparty(ies)?

[WAR41]

Well, I work inside the Chelsea Market which is across the street from the Hiro Ballroom.  I will walk over there and ask them straight up. 

Also, that is right near the new Dream Hotel which is an AMAZING new hotel.  I wonder if that is where the band will be staying.  I see models, athletes and celebs walking in and out of there all the time.

All three NYC shows are sold out on Ticketmaster

[Rocket Killer]

So what's the scoop for the Silver Spring MD show? How do you get a pre-sale password? Do I have to sign up on GNR's website mailing list to get the pre-sale code? Also, did anyone didn't use the Live Nation app, but instead using their personal computer and were successful of getting tickets? I'm just freaking out abit and I wanna be prepare for getting these tickets tomorrow morning.

They'll be totally on fire, at this point!  They have been building up a nice momentum lately.
