Indigo ChiId Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Maybe it is possible that South America is finally realizing that the 1990s are over. Manets, by chance, has a band named Limp Bizkit increased in popularity recently?hahahaha yes. The Strokes is also the new big thing.LOL. Good sense of humor.

Rustycage Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) You do think it was a bitch move of Axl not to talk to him, right?If he was home, yeah. Axl not home. Now that's a funny thought. If Axl wasn't home, Beta wouldn't be there either.Considering past history, I can't really see any situation where Axl would be afraid of Slash. If anything, it would be the other way around. 1 actual confrontation with a male during his whole career? A career filled with shit talking and backing down? That's the past I remember.Yeah, but that 1 male was a badass named Tommy Hilfiger. It's not it was some pussy fashion designer or something.1.5 males, then. I forgot about Hilfiger. I meant the fan in St. Louis.The Axl I seem to remember is the one talking big shit in rants or in songs only to disappear when challenges are accepted. If it's a woman, watch out!

Hollywood Gunner Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 If they actually do pull out a few new songs in mexico, it should help ticket sales for the rest of the tour no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 The worst that happens is they cancel the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanudo19 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 this tour will open with the general intro...and then they'll actually play the general and it will become a hit and all the venues will sell out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magisme Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I'm guessing Russ is away again. How did we ever get by without him? This is awful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aArief178 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Every GNR tour these last 3 years begins with statements like this.And Guns can be said as 'Successful' at the tour. I am curious how will the tour be this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I'm guessing Russ is away again. How did we ever get by without him? This is awful. Just not sure what to add to this thread. I know that there's a certain amount of complaining, both needed and unneeded every time GNR tours. I get that, but I'm truly not sure how to react to a thread about a show being empty that is still months away from happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

November_rain Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Sad if true but whoever is asking $300 for Axl's current band is insane.Asking for $300 for a ticket show in these tough days where people are facing several difficulties is insane be it GNR, Springsteen, Metallica or whoever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtle Signs Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 For $300 do you get to attend a meet&greet with Frank and Fortus? If so that news ought to sell at least 3 more tickets at that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmapelian Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 OMG! And I thought $150 for the brooklyn bowl was ridiculous!! They're banging out their sole bastion of fandemonium for $300/tix??!!

Estranged Reality Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Seems a tad alarmist to me.Word.GN'R seem to have a pretty reliable built-in South American fanbase. I'm always impressed by how crazy the fans still are over there -- just look at that Rio 3 crowd and how intense the energy was. For whatever reason it may be, GN'R haven't lost as much of their relevancy there as in the States. I wouldn't write this off just because of a few questionable factors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF is that?! Oh right, they're doing it for their fans, I forgot.$300 is not that much money for the wealthier Brazilians. They do not want to mix in with the common people so the inflated price is also to keep the riffraff out of certain sections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 $300 is not that much money for the wealthier Brazilians.Or for wealthier Americans, Mexicans, Germans, Bolivians, Argentinians, Peruvians, Canadians. What's your point?Most people attending to a rock show can't afford $300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subtle Signs Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Are there a lot of scalpers there? I get into many shows (some of which are sold out) by waiting until a few minutes before Showtime to approach the scalpers. At that time they can either eat the value of the ticket or sell it to me for $10. A lot of the tickets they sell say COMP on them, meaning they got them for free.

Kids in gated communities? Quite a weak argument. $300 for a concert ticket is absurd. For anybody. Especially for current Guns N Roses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
