GnR start time

[airwaves]

How late do you think GnR will be starting? 

[MEGABOWL]

I’d imagine they’ll be on time or very close. Not been any problems recently, so I gather

[MEGATRONICMEATWAGON]

I'm sure they'll be on time.

[CR77]

When Slash and Duff rejoined the band, part of the deal was that stage times would be adhered to... mainly because they'd be suffering the crowd's discontent backstage, while Axl was out of earshot back in the hotel, LOL!

Axl seemed to turn the corner on this when he toured as front man with AC/DC and was on time. 

If they are late, it will because of technical issues rather than choice 

[incident]

Slightly late, but no moreso than is reasonably common for headliners. How far over was Macca last year?

[Dales]

Most likely a few minutes.

[mungo57]

both times I've seen them at large gigs (Download 2006, Olympic Stadium 2017) they've been on time or early.

I saw them at Wembley Arena in around 2007/8 I think and they came on about 3 hours late!

 

I've gone for on time. They're playing a shorter set so if they want to squeeze a song or 2 more in they'll be on time or early.

Saw them at Reading Festival in 2010 think they came on an hour late!

[Gnomicide]

The very late times are generally pre the reunion with a few exceptions. 

The 2 gigs on this run started at 7:35 and 8:10 pm, that doesn't sound like they are more than 10 minutes late if due on at 7:30 and 08:00.

And I think half hour late at Leeds!

That's good to know

[Ayrshire Chris]

They should be told that this is Glastonbury, so get on the f**king stage at your allotted time. Whether it’s croissant neuf or the pyramid, thems the rules😉😊

[duke88]

When I saw them at West Ham, they were on ridiculously early, so much so that I could hear the first song as I was queuing to get in!

[Euphoricape]

Still unsure whether to watch the whole set or see leftfield then catch second half. 🤔 

[johnny-yen]

I’ll definitely be late for that one. I may just turn up in time for the encore

[MEGATRONICMEATWAGON]

I bet they come on a little late just for the shits and giggles. Like 5-10 mins late. Then they'll come on and joke about it like, "You thought we'd be f**king late didn't you, you pricks!"

[CaledonianGonzo]

Don't mind them being a bit late if it's due to waiting for Angus's plane to land from Amsterdam.

[lolbot]

They’re already going on two hours later than they will at Hyde Park.

I remember this. Didn’t he throw a strop when they cut him off due to the sound curfew?
