AxlisOld Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Lol South America.Nothing will happen, maybe a change in venue, but Brazilians will still drop a paycheck to see a shitty, unprepared band.Sigh...I miss when Axl could sing and played new music. 2010.

Bobbo Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Meh, it should be fine. South America is Axl's shit.But god damn. IF this tour were to flop, even Axl couldn't be so delusional not to reevaluate what he's doing. Could he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowmass Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 A good management team would handle this properly. The end of TB starts now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wfuckinga Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 The tour might flop?Yes. It's still on time for them to do something about it, but do you think they will?Aside from moving to a smaller venue or cancelling, I don't think so. TB isn't exactly the most professional of management teams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Izzy_Stradlin_XX Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Maybe this is a lesson to Axl, maybe he'll learn that you have to rehearse with the band before gigs, and that walking on time on stage is a huge thing in the music industry.

Shooting Star Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Who's this Felipe Barbieri anyways? He looks like a major drama queen... If the concerts really fail to sell, at least those who actually go will end up with a "private" show, so there's at least one good side to it... j/k I've no idea how well the show will sell here in town, still, back when I went to get my ticket, there were several on the line and the cashier was so stressed out by the amount of people I almost punched her in her whore mouth because she was a bitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Such a difference compared to 2010, I remember seeing pics of 1000s of people waiting just for tickets the day they went on sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtle Signs Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Those kids probably don't know about Slash. They should be Axl's target audience. Let them all in. If not they could always put tickets up on Groupon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't even sit down and talk to him, man-to-man. That's pretty weak. Even the biggest Axl cult members can't really turn that into an Axl positive and Slash negative.

"Slash was only there to trash Duff and Scott" blah blah blah...........I don't think Slash was there to apologize, though. I think he was approaching it in a way where to men could work it out without having to kiss ass. It's too bad mommy was sent out to chase the mean man away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NGOG Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 The article is a bit sensationalist. Yes GNR are yet to heavily push the Tour, but a lot of the "points" are clutching at straws.First of all, how can he determine the age demographic of GNR social media? Did he visit every single profile?It's January. They have two long months to heavily promote the Tour.The maximum ticket price is $300. So what? That's a moot point. What percentage of a ticketbuyers seek premium-rate tickets?I would also question his logic that people won't go because they saw the band in 2010. Surely if it was a good show they'd be more inclined to see another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indigo ChiId Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I just checked our page statistics, and from the almost 200 thousand people that like the page, the VAST MAJORITY comes from people younger than 16 years old. The fans who enjoy the most this new line-up are the youngest. And also, who's 16 or 17 years old will have to pay twice the price of the ticket so that someone "legally responsible" can take tham.Thanks a lot for sharing this, Manets. Personally, I am shocked that 16-17 year olds make up the majority of the fanbase, I wouldn't have guessed that.By chance, did the original article touch on the very, very small percentage of those who enjoy the band who are over the age of 16-17 years? For example, does it say that the other 8-9% of the population who like the current lineup are those not in possession of a high school diploma? Or possibly those that may have suffered a severe, traumatic force to the head? Just curious for statistical purposes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
