I think its the price of fame. You can get some people who go really crazy and obsess about a 'celebrity' where they are basically stalking the person. Its a downside of someone who didnt want to be famous but wanted to be the best damn rock n roll singer around and I totally get these peoples perspective when it comes to the need for safety, privacy and security. There can be some really mentally unwell people around.

Yeah I doubt theres anything to do with contracts. Slash probobly feels and reasonably so that GNR songs have been played pretty heavily on tour around the world the last few years so mix it up a little and play more of his songs.

I agree. All rock bands would jump at the chance to open for the stones.

MY HONK! But in all seriousness Axl sounds way better than this.

Personally I think this 62 year old man deserves some time of and rest to do whatever he wants I dont think we can criticise him for not doing much hes been pretty much on tour constantly since 2016. He's not like Slash who lives for touring im sure its just a means to an end but in my opinion he has worked pretty hard.

I can understand this point of view but they need to make money and put food on the table for the family. Also yeah they think everything will just end up on ebay so they are just giving fans the money when the artist could be the one making the money instead. Its just the modern world these days isnt it money makes the world go around and to be honest if my signature could make me money I would want to monetise it so you buy meet n greets to get signatures. Its similar to wrestlers in their world they too are reluctant to sign random things in random situations.

Classic blues songs covered by Slash and some renowned guest appearences I think this will be a really good listen.

Would have liked to have gone see them since I've never seen them live but in this economic climate I can't afford it. Sucks to be me i guess. I doubt I could afford to go and see GNR either this year times are real tough right now.

I dont think Duff will. He's been on tour with GNR for a long time has solo work going on, has plenty of money (I would imagine ) also has a family that im sure he would like to spend some time with now.

Metallica has a far bigger presence on YouTube and you did say you only considered spotify streams so yes I am aware. Im just adding extra to your post.

June 6th 1992 - Paris France. One of the best visually and audio recorded performances of the band. Great song choices and some really good guest appereances this was the band at the the peak of their game. Although the Ritz show from 1988 is also a good one.

Slash recently has always been very vocal of how much he enjoys touring its his favourite aspect of being in the music industry. Multiple countries in multiple days is gonna be much easier for a non singer especially since he is sober now I bet keeping busy helps him stay sober too so good for him. There are still many years of life ahead of him now he is sober which is great for us fans a healthy, happy and very much alive slash is good for us all.

You have no idea how much she was paid. Since she was living this life of luxury as you say perhaps this was considred the payment but since there was no written agreement then nobody knows.

I think this is a disservice to Kat. I think her photos are some of the best quality there is, to just get another photographer of the same quality isnt as easy as you might think.

I believe Steven Tyler is facing accusations of sexual abuse from two women right now. So makes sense that they would postpone the tour while negotiations take place between the his represnetatives and the womens.

I remember seeing youtube vids from GNRs show at the ritz and then some UYI world tour shows especially Paris 92' and I was blown away not only was Axl the best RnR singer around but in my opinion one of the greatest frontmen of all time top 3, easily.

ill nino only ones ive heard of they had a rocker of a song in the early 2000s called 'what goes around' listened to that often.

Guns will not open for Motley there is no doubt about that maybe if they were to get a bigger split of the money then perhaps they would but no I dont see a joint tour happening at all. Motley need it more than Guns at this point.

This isnt directed at you but if your not going there tonight maybe dont call it a letdown before its even happened. I've read many comments here from people who were surprised how good the band sounded and how the show exceeded their expectations.

Anyone going to this? Quiet here so far but I guess Nampa, Idaho is kinda in the middle of nowhere and what's the capacity of the arena about 12.5K?

I think it's reasonable to assume there was a lot of drug taking going on back then in both bands. That probably didn't do them much good on the mental health side of things which could by why there was so much chaos attached to GNR back then.

Almost, there is one more show after these in LA. They are scheduled for Hell and Heaven Festival in Mexico for November 5th.

These bands make so much money touring separately they don't need the joint tour to promote ticket sales. I think most us know that but I also get the idea of another Metallica + GnR tour as being pretty awesome.

I hear this alot from many people and it's easy to say but the reality is not that simple. When performing on stage and singing is someone's livelihood it's what they've been doing all their lives and more than likely they enjoy doing so, it's also how they make money to make things happen in their lives or the people they care about its not that simple. If people are willing to buy tickets to shows that they can still make money on there's no reason why they can't continue yes there will be a lot of criticism for doing so but I don't think they care nor should they. At the end of the day who am I to tell someone they should stop doing what they love because its not as good as it used to be. If there's money out there to be made and they want it I say go for it till you genuinely don't want to do it anymore fuck the haters do what makes you happy.
