Spirit Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I don't think Fernando said anything about any revelation in two days on the instagram. There was a comment mentioning "two days", but it was in relation to Beauty and the Beast, could have been a joke relating to the movie premiering two days from when the post was made. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another member was giving an opinion and I had it in my head that Fernando said it. So GnR continues to pay for a mysterious billboard... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it stands at the moment I would say it probably has more to do with the RIR announcement. Anybody know when the blood around the logo first appeared?

I dont think they are digging this deep into this, its just one of their logos in a yellow background. lol It could be the CD logo and it would mean the same. That "So Fine" promo wasnt even an official release, it was just a promo to a fuckin brazilian radio the band probably never even saw and aside the So Fine yellow background thing, it has nothing to do with any of their official albuns or singles. It is weird, yeah, but as far as we know its just the band saying hey to their hometown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any idea how much these cost per day? Obviously not. I can't believe a band or its promoting company (LiveNation) is just going to basically burn money to "say hey to their hometown". 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostOfPride Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 a Sunset Boulevard billboard can cost between $10,000-$25,000 per month. When Axl Rose ended a 23-year feud with his former Guns N’ Roses bandmates, Duff McKagan and Slash, and agreed to reunite with them onstage in 2016, the band unveiled its North American tour in an unusual way. There were no news conferences, talk-show chats or photo ops. Instead, flashy electronic billboards featuring the band’s logo and famous song titles began popping up in major cities across the country. “It’s what we call a reveal, where you give hints that start to build excitement and questions, and with social media, these things have a tendency to catch fire,” said Scott Wells, chief executive of Clear Channel Outdoor Americas, which handled some of the band’s billboard campaign. The billboard strategy seems almost retro at a time when much of the marketing world is focused on mobile devices and social media. But Guns N’ Roses isn’t alone. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/05/business/media/look-up-in-the-digital-age-billboards-are-far-from-dead.html?_r=0 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostOfPride Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 yeah, that billboard will likely stay there until they make an announcement for an LA show later this year. my guess is that the last week in May (right before the tour starts up again) is likely when they will announce some more dates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is still a waste of money. Those kind of billboards are very expensive. If it means an anouncement about a show in L.A. put a billboard just a few days before and not several months ahead of the event they mean to advertise. They could spend that money feeding people in Africa if they don't need it for themselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
