Axl, where are my 40 euros which I paid for the cab when you came on stage 3 hours late and all the local transport was closed? If you want to talk about luck, then well for every show they should do a contest of 20 people winning free tickets, real fans deserve that, not pieces of plastic. Don't complain about how much money you pay to see this band. No one is making you do it. Your fandom should not depend on the band's desire to meet and get to know you just because of your hardcore support. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) They did this with Nugnr when they played in Europe - 2012 I think it was; first row filled with skanks. The Troubadour show was also filled up with vacuous celebrities - people like Jim Carrey - who simply waltzed in like gods, unlike the fans who had to go through all that procedure with queuing and wristbands.

I've been a GNR fan since I was a child in the 80's. I've seen this band 5 times, and never have I felt like I "DESERVED" anything. We as fans, don't deserve to meet them, just because we like their music. We don't deserve shit. Being a fan does not translate into you deserve anything. Being a fan, is simply that. You are a fan, you enjoy their work. Congrats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second Foxboro show they upgraded shit loads of people with cheap seats to the lower bowl and floor. Anyway.. Not need to get all huffy I just said I don't have a problem with it.

No offense, but are you the supplier of these girls or something? why are you getting so offended? Ok good for you that you saw GNR 5 times? Your opinion is that its nothing wrong if these plastic models are getting free tickets with transport and meeting the band. My opinion is that my beautiful friends on here like @Italian girl @dgnr @axlsend @AxlsFavoriteRose @Jane M. @Andy14 @Juliette (sorry if im missing anyone) should be meet the band/get free tickets cause they are so much beautiful and better than those plastic models. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all get that we're not entitled to tickets and upgrades just because we're fans. I think the overall point is that some random model shouldn't be either. It's a pretty pathetic move in the first place that looks even worse when the media gets ahold of it. TMZ didn't even try to twist the story either. They reported it for what it is: GNR needs to pay models to make it look like they go to GNR shows. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need crazy dudes and dudettes head banging, going ape and not giving a damn, just like in that ACDC show in River Plate. Funny how in the past GNR didn't want to become Motley. Now, with all this model crap, I see their photos at the L.A. show and can't stop singing in my head "Girls, girls, girls" Right...agreed. Some might appreciate the music but I'm sure we will see many with their goo goo eyes focused towards the stage, hoping to get some personal recognition before making their way backstage in high hopes of a shag and being whisked away in the lap of luxury by a rockstar. And of course bands are going to put friends and family on their guest lists for premium seating, that's a given and expected. What irks me is that these chicks were handed front row seats and the complete star package just for being physically attractive when you have die hard fans who would give almost anything for an opportunity to be that close to the band they love. And ugh...that video is just ugh lol. They're all duck lipping, "Look at me...I'm so beautiful." Get out of here man... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stella Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I don't think anyone deserves anything, one way or the other - and it is of course entirely their call on who they want to invite to their show and after party. No questions there. It's their house; their call who's comped and who they party with. But I do think that there are so many huge fans of the band who perhaps do not have model appearances, but would have considered this access a lifetime dream come true - and would have been really enthusiastic and energetic on camera, instead of spending the show looking at their phones and taking duck lips photos.

DieselDaisy Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 It is definitely an Axl/Team Brazil thingy. Slash, Duff (and Adler) are in long term marriages/relationships and would be castrated if caught with these girls. I'm not sure about Frank (he has a daughter) and Dizzy (divorced) so if the aim is a bunga bunga party, the bunga bunga party will be Axl's alone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got stuck next them, they at one point barged Kat out of the way when they kept walking up and down the steps to the toilets. Went in there during SCOM so it wouldn't be packed and they were doing cocaine. Really classy ladies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't get this? Slash has a gf, Duff has a wife, Fortus is also married, Frank also has a gf, Steven is married too, then all these models for Axl? What have these models done to get free tickets? Some of us here are hardcore GNR fans, we deserve to get free tickets, there are so many fans who save for months, travel from different countries just to see the band. What is so "Cool" about these models? Just send them directly to Axl's hotel room? wait fortus is married?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zint Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Apparently models getting front row seats didn't just happen in L.A. http://sleazeroxx.com/concerts/guns-n-roses-live-in-toronto-ontario-canada-concert-review/ Quote What pushed me to go see Guns N’ Roses turned out to be a Facebook post from Last Bullet‘s frontman Bryan Fontez. His wife, who is a model, had received a free backstage pass and front row ticket to see Guns N’ Roses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
