It is confusing but if you hover over each price it makes the sections bold which helps.

Just saw the Western Springs layout, I think I'm down for one of the $350 close-but-not-VIP-close GA tickets. If you average it over the number of years I've waited to see some form of original-ish GNR line-up it's a mere $23/annum.

$89 spot for me and the missus. Hard to justify spending twice as much to go a bit further up and look at the back of heads. The bank will have to do.
Loving it so far

Doesn't have the same vibe without Slash, I could probably tolerate a couple of hours of Axl's whining if he was still in the band. But feck me I haven't been to a concert since the G3 tour a few years back. I'm overdue a free pass somewhere without the wife in tow.

Oh really? Hmmmm, okay then. I'd assumed either Bucketchops or Bumblee were still holding down guitar duties.

Slightly more interested now :thumbup:

...why did you think everyone was so excited about it?? Do you live in some sort of media blackout zone??

Last time I saw them was 1992 at Maine road in manchestoh
Well twice cos the twat didn't appear for the first time

See below
June 9th, 1992 - The Manchester Maine Road show was postponed until June 14th.
Axl remains in Paris, the rest of the band fly to London.

June 10th, 1992 - Three days off, the band and crew shop, dine out and meet old friends.
Axl flies in from Paris on the 11th. That same day the band (minus Axl) and crew take part in a softball game at the Bank Of England sports ground.

On the 12th the band's UK booking agent John Jackson organizes a five hour go-karting championship in West London for the band and entourage.



June 13th, 1992 - Brian May joins GN'R at Wembley Stadium in front of 72,000 people to perform Queen's "Tie Your Mother Down" and "We Will Rock You".
This show is regarded as the hottest show on the tour so far. During the show Axl has one trouble-making drunken fan removed from the crowd. Later he stops the show so that security can help a young girl, who he spots in distress at the front of the crowd.

According to Chris Cornell, earlier in the day, a fan has a heart attack while Soundgarden is playing. He's brought back to life by a paramedic while they're playing their first song.

June 14th, 1992 - GN'R fly to Manchester for the rescheduled show. After the show the band fly back to London.

Support was faith No more and Soundgarden

After seeing slash recently I think I'm ok with leaving this one

I think ...??

GNR supported by Soundgarden and Faith No More? Holy shit, that's close to dream gig for me right there.

I kind of expect the cheap seats to go first, but at those prices, I might hold off and see if the prices drop later on.
