Anyone going to the G3 tour?

[OfSinsAndShred]

Yeah, it's me, the guy who started the 8+ page argument about Yngwie being on the tour. Is anyone going?

Yngwie and Vai are two of my favorite guitarists, and probably two of the best in terms of stage presence, and I'm cool with Satch, so I'm going. I was bummed that they weren't coming near me, but then they added the Pittsburgh date to the websites on my birthday! Wooh! Is anyone else pumped about this?

Rock on, SymXers.

And hey, did you guys know that the classical part from "A Fool's Paradise" is from Bach's "Harpsichord Concerto no. 1 in D minor"? *headbangs*

My dad is going down to buy tickets for the NYC show tomorrow. Hopefully he can get seats up front. Oh man November/December is gonna RULE!!! Two SX shows and the G3 show.

I got 2nd row seats for the show in Auburn Hills, Michigan. I said to myself "screw ticketbastard" I'm buying the tickets at the box office, and got WAY better seats as a result. They cost 65 apiece though, hehe.

 

[The Yngster]

Yeah, the best tickets I could get with Ticketmaster was Upper Balcony! The tickets have only been on sale for two days!!! I can't wait, its gonna be such a great show.

 

[Mr. Shred-ididle]

i think they should come to Australia, seriously..its not that unreasonable proposal, between the 3 most popular shredders, they should get a fairly large show down here

Don't feel so bad. My friend was online ready to get them as they went on sale Friday AM, and we got 3rd row in the balcony (Beacon Theater, 11/11). It didn't help that he had to buy 6, but still...

 

[The Yngster]

Yeah, for some reason they online give Ticketmaster the crappy tickets to sell

 

[Serge...]

I'm going, October 20. My ticket is just general admission, I guess because it's a smaller venue. This tour is going to be timeless, just one of those things that happens once in a lifetime.

Where are the dates posted!?!? I must get myself a ticket..!!!

 

[Space Rabies]

They have nothing listed after November. I have no idea if the tour might come to Cleveland....

 

[The Yngster]

I just got my tickets today, front row upper balcony section, which should be just fine. I can't wait Does anyone know if Yngwie has a singer with him? Or does he just solo for his set?

No singer. He'll use the same members that he has been touring with, except for Doogie White (vocals). (According to Yngwie's official website.)

 

[Mr. Shred-ididle]

i think he does all his instrumental peices, rh Far Beyonf the Sun, Blitzkrieg etc...

 

[The Yngster]

Awesome! Far Beyond the Sun is my favorite instrumental ever!

Where are the dates....

Yngwie should at least do Black Star, Far Beyond the Sun, and Trilogy Suite Opus 5. Besides that, I don't care what he does.

 

[Julz]

Yes Shreddi, they should definitely come down under. I'm already hassling the local promoters. It's just up to G3 as to whether they plan a tour of the region which I am confident will happen.

Fingers crossed

 

[Magnus7]

I wish to God Yngwie would do Blitzkrieg live. I thought the Alchemy album was awesome. Can't wait to hear the end of the evening jam with all three.

 

[OfSinsAndShred]

Yes, it's going to rock. Far Beyond the Sun would just end my life, lol.
