Like I said earlier, £40 would be fine. It's what bands like Maiden, Metallica and Priest have charged when they've played the UK over the past 2/3 years. I just don't understand how they can charge £50 for this incarnation of the band when the only person in it that most people will care about is Axl.
NOTE: I am not some Slash loving reunionist. I do really like the new band a lot. Just pointing out that I don't understand how £50 can be charged for this GN'R lineup. Well £50+Ticketmaster Fee+Postage...
I think the total price is £50, thats how I read it on ticketmaster.
GNR have a much bigger production than those bands, Iron Maidens set up last year was pretty poor.

Guns N' Roses, one of the greatest rock bands of all time, return to the Manchester Arena this spring as part of their highly anticipated 'Night Train' UK tour.
Tickets for the Tuesday 29 May concert go on sale at 9.00am Friday 2 March.
The band's Manchester spring show coincides with Axl Rose and co's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
In a career spanning more than two decades, Guns N' Roses have become one of the biggest bands not only in the world, but in rock 'n' roll history.
They have sold over 100 million albums worldwide and are considered one of the most influential rock bands the world has ever seen.
After rising to fame in the late 1980's and gaining worldwide recognition with their hit single Sweet Child of Mine, the band went on to release five albums including Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II, both albums making history by holding chart positions 1 and 2 on the Billboard charts in 2002.
VHI has also named Welcome to the Jungle 'Best Hard Rock Song' - a fitting accolade for such a rock anthem. Guns N' Roses' most recent release, and fifth studio album, Chinese Democracy went straight to the top of the charts in 13 countries, as well as going platinum in 15.

Its not that expensive, its not even a tenner more than last time, 40-50 quid is average for a big rock show. I doubt it will sell out so you can save up for a ticket.

I'm in 2 minds about the Nottingham show now, if I see that first it will kinda kill the magic for the Glasgow show. I'm thinking it be best to experience Axls long awaited return to Glasgow first, then the next week take a wee trip down to London town for the last show of the tour.

^ I agree re a re-release, particularly given now I have offloaded one of my Red Hand Alternate Artwork CD's.
I think I sold it too cheaply
Thats a tidy profit

Axls touring to save up for his retirement, new music is a pipe dream, noone will quit the band cause they know this is the best gig they'll ever have and they will only have it a few more years so they are just enjoying it for what it is. Just my 2 cents
I'm amazed to get the chance to see them again since its only a couple of years since they were last here, pretty fuckin sweet. If I get to see 7 songs from CD and Estranged I'll be well chuffed, I know there will be no new songs played, but for most of the punters the CD songs will be new.
Bring back Catcher for the UK, thatsa what I say

I'm just rolling with it, gonnie see them live and loud and thoroughly looking forward to it.
I keep saying it, Axls 50 now and the years are catching him up, so catch him while you can cause he could quite well call it a day in the next few years.
I dont expect to see him again in Glasgow after this year thats for sure
