Yep got mine on Saturday. Says Olympic Island opens at 3, gates at 5pm. So slightly later than billed? Anyone been to the Island yet? Is it worth 2 hours of wandering around?

Lisbon tomorrow night – a tad excited…. Especially from the reviews I’ve read here and online – it’s some show by the sound of it!

Incidentally I posted on this thread a couple of pages back saying I’d booked tickets for their Paris gig – I did, only later to realise I can’t make it. So, 2 x GnR tickets for Paris are now on sale…

I was so looking forward to this and now can't go as having to go offshore and work!!! Doubt I'll get another chance to see them.

This may also mean that I have 2 golden circle tickets available for Saturday night just in case anyone was interested, will do a deal below face value on them....

I've decided to go on Saturday

Looks good enough based on youtube videos.

I saw Axl last year doing AC/DC and he was good enough

You'll not be disappointed people. The gig in Lisbon was awesome. Well over 2.5 hours and constant. Axl's vocal is still there, as is his energy, and Slash is just so good to watch and hear. A cracking concert all round. Contemplating Paris now... Let us know what you think of the London gigs.

Thats great to hear!

What time did they come on? I'm going on Friday and I'm just figuring out my drinking strategy!

i am going saturday to see them, not sure if this will help with drink strategy,

For Guns and Roses, we can confirm that stadium island opens at 3pm and the gates to the stadium are due to open at 5pm. Supporting artists are due on stage from 5:45pm with the main act following. The curfew is at 10.30pm.

Well if they play for 2.5hrs as mentioned above, I would assume its an 8pm start music

They started around 7.45 and finished around 10.30

Someone said they played til 10.45 the Friday but not sure what time they started.

Personally I felt the show was long enough.

Overall it was a good show - wouldn't say the greatest I've seen - I would congratulate them on at least having a big video screen to show the majority of the people who cannot actually see the band to see what is going on - something so many big bands lack.

I went Friday they came on 7 45 sharp. Played until about 10.50.

After a few sound check problems at the beginning they were fantastic.

Still can't get over how bad axl looks mind.

anyone else seen theres an announcement due at 5am friday morning??

Not sure what to make of it, seems far too much fuss to make over re-issuing a 31 year old album.

the new website gnr.fm has a world map in the background, quite a few dots placed around where the new/old school appetite for destruction posters/ billboards have been spotted.

the new posters show all the old faces, #appetitefordestruction is the hashtag, they comment 'destruction is coming' are we getting another world tour? are they going to play the album start to finish on tour? are we getting the original line up back with izzy and adler?!?!?!

Crikey no, haven't seen anything, now that would be cool. And what they should have done first day, but alas. I'd go again, but most likely drink less time. Slane Castle is a lone fay smile
