Was gonna go with my girl, but my babies are still too young to travel, (will be 7 months old then), and its probably easier if they stayed here with their mum.
I told my girl last year when the rumours started, that I would see Guns at any cost, and she was fine with that, as she's not really that into Guns, and wasn't fussed to go.
So instead, I've got my close cousin coming to do the trip with me.
We' fly in a few days before, then it's Guns on Friday night, Jerry Seinfeld on the Saturday night, and the Grand Canyon tour another day, and some gambling and drinking the rest of the time. Should be great fun!Kinda like my last hurrah, before my kids get too old and I'll have to start planning family vacations instead....
I'm keen to meet up with fellow Evo buds before Friday's show!
Sounds like a hell of a plan - however you could prob still make the 2nd GnR gig by time Jerry is over..

There's a very real chance that's how it's going to go I feel.
I hope I'm wrong & I know I don't appear to be optimistic.. I will enjoy it tho.

Well there's one known......shows seem able to sell out in minutes judging by these pre-sales. A fan logs in with their password and the only seat available resides somewhere in the Andromeda galaxy. They don't have to worry about vast empty sections a week before showtime like they did on past tours. At the Arco date in 2006 a day before cancellation you could go on Ticketmaster and grab 8 tickets all next to each other on the floor...or in any section of your choosing for that matter.
I don't think they are going to have this problem this time. Some fans think we may have overestimated the interest in this reunion. We may be underestimating it. I think we're in a situation where people who don't even really care that much will line up for tickets just so they can experience THE event.
20 years from now grandmas in their rocking chairs will be telling their grandchildren, "Yeah I saw those 2 sumbitches who said they'd NEVER perform together again. They performed that song I used to hear every few seconds when your grandpa watched football."
We'll hold on, these are only 2 shows so far & people are travelling all over the world for them. You're definitely able to find 40,000 GnR fans to travel for these 2 gigs.
A more extensive tour then maybe you'll have to start relying on what I call the Brian Adams fans - the people who know the hits, the 2 songs, but go along for a night out because it's the thing to do.. Same thing with the stadium shows.
Not that it isn't a massive thing & really could go as massive as 88-93 if enough luck runs their way. I just think a lot of people at these first shows are hardcores while on a tour the interest & dedication will be much less due to the quality of fan/punter going. It's kinda why I want to see those first two shows instead of having to stand in a field with 40,000 passive observers. I want to be in that room with 20,000 GnR fans who are contributing to the show. Can you imagine how nuts that place will go when Jungle drops out of its intro into its bounce?! Fuck me man.. They should make the fuckin arena shake.

However the underlying point about the institutional racism of the oscars is correct.
It's interesting the value society puts on certain things. Me I usually think most of the winners are totally shit & I think the revenant was totally shit too (Matt Damon or Del Toro were so far better as we're both the Martian & sicario). The only thing it was good for was Donal Gleeson beingHidden Text:& all the unintentional humour. Terrible film.
A load of shit if you ask me.
Johnny? Did you torrent Revenant or did you see it in the Cinema?
Unfortunately both. I regret both. Seeing it in the cinema just reaffirmed my dislike & thorough boredom of it all.
& I was really excited for that film too but it just was so so boring. Typical Hollywood wilderness epic that arrives once a generation for guys like Leo or Costner.. Except Costner made like 6 of them.
