haha, just talked to an online buddy (first time we ever talked) and he's already up there. I tell him I'm on the fence an he says "Just get in a car and get your ass up here now." hahaha.
Up there already at 3 pm, that's hardcore.

I'm so on the fence here. I can go eat (maybe because half the restaurant is taken up for a private party) and then get a front of line pass, heading to the top balcony. OR....just roll up there around 11 and see the show from wherever. It makes about a 5 hour difference in my night and I'm not sure it's worth it. If I can't get into the restaurant to get the front of line pass then I'm chumped out, standing in line and will end up wherever anyway.

Has there been an opener at ever one of these small shows? What time does the opener go on? GNR is going on around 11:30-12 right?
#2304 Re: Guns N' Roses » 2011-12 Guns n Roses Tour » 766 weeks ago
The Circle Jerks...ahhh the good ole days!
They get some great bands in there for sure. To see GNR again in such a small venue will be a treat.

I love Orlando's HOB. Can't friggin believe GN'R is going to play there. Seriously wish I was back home cuz I'd be there
Where are you now?

don't need a full review...12:15 crowd QUITE restless but no panic. Soon as lights went down, flip of the switch and it was on. Chinese is a good opener because at first you are actually suprised that you see Axl in this type of venue. WTTJ....SHIT KICKED IN. I need food.
CD has a great build up, but I still think WTTJ is the superior opener. People lose their shit when that song kicks in.

The way they have the HOB set up in Orlando allows me to get a "front of the line" pass if I eat dinner at their restaurant. Which is a no brainer, I can get a bite then take the pass and get in front of all the other chumps in line, lol. I had considered just rolling up there around 10:30 and being anywhere, but I don't want to risk it.
I did that same thing for Chicago so I ended up being the first person to walk in after the Gold VIPs.
Also, that HoB in Orlando is pretty rad. I saw Train there about 7 years ago. I couldn't imagine getting to see GN'R there. You're gonna have the time of your life.
I saw Queensryche there a couple of years back and it was a great venue. I was in the "back" and still was very close. I've seen GNR at The (old) Joint in LV twice and that was a blast. I'm bringing a buddy of mine who has never GNR in concert before, he's pumped and I am sure he's going to be blown away. I work for myself and still stay up pretty late most nights however my wife gets up at 4am for work every day. So we're going to pump her full of caffeine and then vodka. Should do the trick. 
I'd like to get up top on the balcony and see the show from there, that would be my first choice. I'm too old (yea I said it) to be down on the floor right up front these days.

Has there been an opening band at every show? I'm trying to decide if I want to cruise up to Orlando later or see the whole shabang. Although I don't want to fuck up and miss anything if there is no opener.

As is, at the moment is my favorite track. The album has some really aggressive moments which I wasn't expected and really liking.
It is a surprisingly aggressive album.
