Awesome!

Mignelli14

That'll be a killer concert. I missed the opener in Toronto but the band was friggin dynamite. So I can only imagine how great that'll be getting to see AIC first!

this is great news!

Seattle show. I know Seattle well, been many times, but wow hotels are minimum $350 a night. Any suggestions to get better then that? I've checked countless websites

I think we did a non-cancellable reservation at a holiday inn express, but that was a few months back. It's on the opposite side of downtown than the stadium though. Downtown Seattle is bitching expensive in the summer. You could try the Moore Hotel. It's low end and no A/C but quite often you can get a room for around 100usd.

chitty

You can walk from where you're staying. Takes a bit, but possible. I've done it for Seahawks, Mariners, etc
Tried the Moore it's sold out

Just can't justify $350usd a night and don't want to drive anywhere after. Will keep looking. Stupid to not have booked earlier

mr bungle

yeah, I hate to tell you but a summer Friday night in seattle, AND a concert... You're probably Fucked. It would may be way cheaper to get a room outside of town and Uber in. Or if your not a drinker, rent a car. Just my two cents, Good luck!

chitty

Drinking is the issue....lol

Didn't know you have uber. That could be the best bet, thanks

marjen

Just remember sometimes the Uber ride adds up due to the price spikes during shows. In Greenville we took an Uber literally 2.5 miles in no traffic, most on the highway and it cost $30 each way.

Got in after midnight fresh from the Fenway shows and now I have to rally for the GnR show tonight in SF. I'm frickin' beat!

chitty

Can anyone tell me what time the openers and then G N R have been going on at? No midnight start times like last GnR show I went to a few years ago I hope. Thanks.

cahern

Nope! Pretty early in Boston, something like 7 and 8:30 start times, maybe even earlier. The new punctual GnR

In East Rutherford, Lenny Kravitz went on right at 8:30 (ticket start time) and ended at 9:30. I wanna say GNR came on around 9:50 and played until 12:45. I was pleasantly surprised at how on time everything was. I was ready for Lenny to come on late and GNR even later!

Yeah apparently the Mass show was on a partifularly early timeline: http://patch.com/massachusetts/foxborough/no-fine-warning-late-running-guns-n-roses-show

Basically, whatever info you can find about start times for your show is probably accurate

Yeah around 7. The sound could have been amped up a bit too, guessing this had something to do with that too. Weekday suburban issues out at Gillette I guess. Still not as early as the 10:30 Fenway curfew last weekend though!

There was a post on the GNR facebook thing that the Seattle show starts at 6:30pm. I was wondering about that, because there's two opening bands I believe Seattle also has a noise curfew (allthough, somehow Pearl Jam played really late for their 2000 shows at the Key, but never did it again).

GNR took the stage in San Fran 15 minutes early. Actually pissed off some folks who were still in line

chitty

Ok thanks. Hopefulky day of I can find a set time and approximate my arrival for that. Just don't want to be late for AIC, but also want some tailgating time.
