[Voodoochild]

we have to bootleg this show

Yeah, you do! You could steal the cd-r from the soundboard people too and give us an awesome soundboard boot!

[zombux]

hehe I doubt I could do that, I'm 2 meters tall, long hair... so I'm unable to hide in the crowd

[Voodoochild]

Make sure you start to date a short girl by that time.

[zombux]

  probably. I hope we will be able to bootleg it, security control is a bit tough here...

/lastroots

you're welcome! I'll add information in english language as soon as they're available. tickets should be available on 20th March, so we'll see. the price is something like this: http://www.sazkaticket.cz/koncerty.asp?lang=CZ#3

Vstupenky k sezen? za 2 100 Kč, 1 400 Kč a 1 150 Kč, vstupenky k st?n? u p?dia za 1 250 Kč a k st?n? za 1 000 Kč

so it's 2100Kč, 1400Kč and 1150Kč for sitting (maybe the more expensive ones are for better place near the stage), staying near the stage is 1250Kč, and staying further from stage for 1000Kč

1€ is about 30 Kč (I'm not sure if it's exact)

[Markus Asraelius]

That's so great that Axl and company is going to perform in Prague cause Prague is a beautiful city. I should take a trip there.

[lastroots]

1? is about 30 Kč (I'm not sure if it's exact)

I know. Won't be my first visit to Prague. I just love the city.
But anyway, thank you

Tickets are pretty expensive I guess, compared to Warsaw. About 43 euros for GA.

Anyway, if I can't get floor tickets to Helsinki, Stockolm or Oslo then I'll be there. Plus, I've never been to Prague.

Wow.... I hope its true.
Too bad that I have bought planetickets back from Stockholm on the 27th.
But guess I can afford another plane ticket the next day if they will play Oslo as well.

[hRob]

[zombux]

the ticket is in my hands. see you by the stage

[Agata]

Been trying to book the ticket for the Prague show for a few days. Since I'm from abroad, I'd like to pay for it by credit card and have it sent to me via post. I haven't been able to do this though. When I go on www.ticketpro.cz, and try to search the event and add it to my basket, it says NO EVENT FOUND. Still, it is listed in their schedule...

Please, help! How or where else can I get that ticket through the Net? 
I'd really appreciate it

[blanc15]

here's the actual ticket-info on how many are still available. It's NOT much!!! and "in front of the stage" is sold out looong time.

http://www.sazkaticket.cz/Predstavenie_javisko_view.asp?IDPred=1600702

[Agata]

Yeah, I've been there before, but the thing is when you click to book one, they won't let you pay by credit card. It's only to be collected from the selling points themselves within a day or two...  And I'm from Poland, so I need to have it sent to me. 

[zombux]

Anyway, need some rest, I'm going to the same arena today to see the RHCP.

[gandra]

was arena full???

[hRob]

i think around 80% or so.

[zombux]

damn I just got back from Prague, I witnessed fucking great show! I really hope someone managed to bootleg it because it was almost flawless 

I met gnrseb before the show, it was nice to meet you man 

about Avenged Sevenfold, I better forget that something like this even exists, it was absolute crap.

then Sebastian Bach stormed the stage and everything was fine, he played most hits by Skid Row, and both band and crowd really enjoyed it, they were in good mood and I just regret they didn't get more time, I'd kick out A7X and give this band more time, they need it 

about GNR, the performance was better I even expected. the guys were really like a band, they were so tight and played the fuck of all of the songs. I like the fact that they weren't acting like stupid arrogant rockstars but they just enjoyed the show and were always smiling - fucking cool band  and there was Axl Rose. his mike mix was maybe not enough loud, so sometimes it was harder to hear him, but his voice was perfect. maybe it was the mix, but it seemed to me that he's singing everything much higher than at the previous gigs.

there were some fuckers calling Slash, Axl ranted at one of them and told him just to fuck off 

all songs were played really perfectly, maybe Ron's guitar wasn't as loud as needed and his leads weren't so clear, but who fucking cares when the whole arena was singing every single song with the band!

Sebastian Bach joined at My Michelle, and then, Izzy appeared on the stage, the band morphed into many-headed hydra and destroyed everything in the way. it was just blasting. he joined the band for Think About You, Patience, Nightrain and then Paradise City. it seemed like Izzy never left the band, he seemed to be so happy and the band was in great mood as well, it just seemed like GNR have 4 guitar players and it will be so forever 

they played four of the new songs - Better, The Blues, Chinese Democracy and IRS (in this order), they did some blues jam or what during every time the piano was moving forth and back, and Axl enjoyed some Fucking off in G  that was great.

I was impressed by every musician on the stage. especially Robin Finck really seemed to enjoy every note.

well I'm tired as fuck, I'm not that young anymore, I have to get some rest now. I got some photos at my cell phone, hopefully they're not as shitty as I think they are 

rock on people!

[EFISH]

cool review..

sounds like it was an awesome show!

to bad they cant seem to get the damn sound mixing right 

glad ya had fun...
 

[zombux]

a few more pieces:

at the end of the show, Axl mistakenly screamed "Czechoslovakia, good fucking night!" - oh well, this fucking country is called Czech Republic, Czechoslovakia doesn't exist for 13 years, they could finally get used to this fact 

I just copied some photos from the cellphone, they're tiny but some of them are pretty good, let's see what can I do with them, 352x288 resolution sucks but some of them are watchable. anyway, a bunch of much better czech photos are on the way so maybe I'll include these then.

the security was very tight, they scanned everything and as far as I know, many cameras or whatever were confiscated. but still some people were able to sneak in with cameras because I could see some flashes. however I'm not sure about any bootleg, many people recorded at least something at their mobile phones but... you know the quality 

I have to appreciate the band's mood again, they seemed to be very happy, always doing some gestures to the fans, smiled at the crowd, that was amazing! I have never seen this kind of behaviour, most bands are acting like fucking proud rockstars. this is just completely different.

sometimes I got the feeling that Axl looks very old in the face - hell who doesn't look old in 40's, but he was running at the stage like in the old times

Robin is the most interesting stage performer I ever seen, he was always doing some weird figures, maybe artistic maybe stupid, I'm not to judge this, I pretty liked it, even if it seems he has to fall and kill himself at the stage 

Brain did a short solo, I think before Nightrain

members of Red Hot Chili Peppers (they are performing today, a day after GNR) were seen behind the stage right before the show, I could easily recognize Anthony Kiedis, maybe discussing with some GNR members, I couldn't see them all too well... he was smiling anyway

[mikegiuliana]

so bach played mostly songs from skid row, is that his new band?

[zombux]

Skid Row was his old band, but he plays mostly the old hits, as far as I remember he played only one or two of his solo songs. the band rocks though

[gandra]

I like skid row first album!!1
slave to the grind litle bit,but his third album (i got them,but forgot name is bad)

did they play youth gona wild,18 and life,remember yesterday...

[zombux]

did they play youth gona wild,18 and life,remember yesterday...
