Gibson87 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 If they win anything, it'd be one of the touring awards. Lack of new music hurts them in the Top Duo/Group category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNR 1991 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 So I didn't realize this awards show is actually televised. The show is on May 21st, 6 days before Guns start the Euro leg. Warmup show on national television? Could be a disaster, also would GNR perform amongst all these mostly younger acts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really just depends on if Billboard or any of its sponsors have ever released anything negative on GNR haha it would be nice for them to show up and accept an award if given...I would love if they performed but just showing up would be cool, seeing Axl and Slash sitting next to each other at an awards show would be between legendary and comical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were them I wouldn't perform. Fuck award shows. The people who organize the event might force them to do some stupid collab anyway like the train wreck metallic did with lady Gaga a few months back.

Silent Jay Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Coldplay, Beyonce and Bruce Springsteen made better figures than GnR in the US and across the world in 2016. The band has a small chance of winning Top Rock Tour, that's all they have here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason though, I don't see GNR caring very much about this awards show. An appearance would be cool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think Axl would ever accept the Golden Gods award but he showed up...it's strange the things he takes priority over. Who knows what they will do, sounds like they have an invitation and from the looks of the lineup they will be the token rock group so I imagine they will want them to do something...depends what time of day they call and how Axl feels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Jay Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 The Golden Gods isn't like that, Axl wasn't nominated at all. The band and Axl probably asked and then were paid to show up and perform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post estranged_85 Posted April 10, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted April 10, 2017 (edited) wether they win or don't it's great to see GN'R even mentioned on this kind of events in 2017 Edited April 10, 2017 by estranged_85 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEPTEM Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 With the tour numbers ( cash and attendance) The band gratness Media impact Tour succes ..among other things.. GNR must win those tree awards. But if no one goes there to receibe the award, the organization might give it to other nominee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnus Cavalerra Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 I've seen a lot people pissed on twitter for the inclusion because GNR had zero new album, i understand that, but i'll still rooting for GNR to win because who didn't like to see more pissed people?

The band has a small chance of winning Top Rock Tour, that's all they have here. The awards are based on the reporting period of March 18, 2016 through March 16, 2017. - GN'R's whole Asia/Oceania leg will be counted as well. If the numbers from this leg exceeds $65 million, they will beat Beyonce and Coldplay. - Springsteen's 2016 January, February and parts of March concerts will not be counted. GN'R will beat that tour if the Asia/Oceania leg made more than $60 million. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worldwide you are right, but with 16 less concerts played than Coldplay and 32 less than Bruce Springsteen https://www.pollstarpro.com/files/Charts2016/2016YearEndTop200NorthAmericanTours.pdf https://www.pollstarpro.com/files/Charts2016/2016YearEndTop100WorldwideTours.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
