I am with you.  I am going to the Minneapolis and Iowa shows. My buddy who is going with me to the Minneapolis show is also going to this show because his law firm is based in Chicago and he is going to be in town on business at that time.  The kicker, a partner in the firm is a huge GNR fan and she is going with him.  What great way to kiss your boss's ass!!

I am in the bullpen though for this show in case someone can't go.  So maybe I will get three GNR concerts this time around too.

got 2 Gen.? Adm.

It gave me seat #'s of 245 & 246 (wondering what that refers to?)? I thought Gen Adm. was first come first served right?

The floor is General Admission. I called Allstate to see. They said no seats on the floor, standing room only. It's gonna be great!!

So, it looks like GA is the floor (pit for moshing) and they are calling the more expensive seats GA as well but you actually get seating. I got seats too because I want to drink my beer, smoke some, and Axl Rose dance my ass off! Last time I was in the pit at one of these shows, my ass was felt up left and right (not that I minded) and I came out with loads of beer spilled on me smelling like I had just run a marathon. Plus, people were just taking joints out of my hand. So, being a little older and wiser, I choose to enjoy the commotion from the stands and decide who I want to share my ganja with.

I bet scalpers already snatched up most of the good tickets thats why the system was only selling ones and twos even in the better sections. Scalpers suck in Chicago. They get everything first. I'm still trying to figure out the link. Being a Sox fan for many years, I was always able to get good tickets except this past year because they won the WS. Unless you had season tickets, scalpers took all of the 100 level tickets and the only thing I could ever get this year was nosebleed upper deck.

For all you fans considering Chicago, consider again. It will be one wild show!  I've got peeps coming from NY to see this show too. Look forward to hooking up with some of you cats for a pre-party. Shoeless Joe's will be the place and I''m thinking around 5 or 6 PM? I'll post the address and stuff by the end of the week. It's right across from Rosemont so this seems to be the best place.

Oh, and it's finally being promoted on the Loop radio station.

Well alright!!!! That's what I'm saying! I will gladly share with my fellow GNR fans! I am in section 111. Row DD. You'll know you're at the right place when you see my ladies and I head banging and singing at the top of our lungs! That's if we have any lung power left but you know how that goes.

I'm trying to get everyone going to the Chicago show that's on this site to meet at Shoeless Joe's before the show. Yes. It is in the hotel you are staying. I'd love to meet the people posting here and party with them!

Ok for anyone reading these posts interested in pre-partying before the show:

Shoeless Joe's Sports Bar & Grille
10290 W. Higgins Road
Rosemont, IL 60018
Monday, November 27th
6:00 PM

And yes, it's in the Best Western hotel near Allstate Arena.

Personally I have to work on Monday but plan to call in sick on Tuesday so I think a good time to meet would be 6:00 PM. If anyone wants to get there earlier have a few drinks for me. I know I will certainly try.

Give a holler if you're going to meet so we know who to look for. Also, share your pic so we know who you are! I have to get one to post. I totally am so behind with technology - don't even have a freakin digital camera.

I bought two more through the presale but couldn't get two together in any of the 100 sections. How many tickets did you buy? I wound up taking two on the floor so I could send my husband packing and just party with the ladies.

Do they allow beer on the floor? I have to imagine they do or fans would be beating the piss out of the vendors. I've only been in mosh pits at the Riv and the Brawl Room in which it's a free for all and you slip on your ass more times than someone can drink a beer. I've never experienced a no beer policy.

Also, let me know when people start getting their tickets. NY peeps are having a problem with tickets.com and everyone ordering through ticketmaster got their's first. Some people going to the NY show still haven't got their tickets and I think the show is 11-5 for them. I want to know who I'm going to have to take down if my tickets don't arrive on time.

One more thing. The auction is for tickets for the show. If you bid, you can either get upfront mosh pit or reserved seats in like the first five rows. I guess they are holding the best seats for this auction, then whatever doesn't go will be released through ticketmaster or scalpers.

Damn. Wouldn't I love to be the lucky one to order tickets when they release what isn't sold through the auction? It's timing and luck baby.

I just heard a radio promo on 670 The Score!? It said, "Chinese Democracy World Tour", but they only played old songs (WTTJ, NT, SCOM, NR, PC).? ? Undecided

Later on, they had a contest where the 5000th person to text the word "rock" to the station, won tickets to the show.? ?ok

No they don't.  At least they didn't the last time I was there to see VR.

4 together in Section 102 row B!!! I didn't want to stand the whole time. Three hours at the Hammerstein in May was enough.
