axl8302 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 All I know is that band called GNR sold out most of the shows during the last world tour, that they are going to play in Rock in Rio in front of 200,000 people and they are the ones always in mind for this big event every fucking year...wonder why... It's because people still love AFD and UYI. They're still willing to pay to hear Axl sing those songs. If there was any kind of similar interest in the new material or now band members, CD wouldn't be selling for $1.99 at Best Buy.Yeah sure, there's no interest in the band. That's the why the album has sold more than 3 million copies worldwide. schmuck.6 million actually.Source? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JEEP11 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 If Axl wanted to sell more records he would do so. He knows how the industry works, and more than any of us do.So, BBA your ongoing angst and shit stirring on here really has no point. You should get a new hobby or life in some manner. BTW I bought a double CD of Judas Priest 'Metal Works' years ago for 2.99 and it is great of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The industry is changing, and a great number of labels are gasping for breath,many outlets selling music are minmizing or closing out, so it's a precarious time for Artists and Labels alike, Axl knows full well how the bloodthirsty industry works, and still manages to do things his way, I don't rely on "popular opinion" to know what I like to listen to, and have picked up on some sweet deals in sales albums.

DaneisKing1389 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Does Best Buy honor the online price in-store? I ordered two vinyls but I'd for sure like to pick up another for a friend and possibly another CD or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
