Postponed U.S. Shows - Keep your tix or get refund?

I sent an email to initiate a refund this morning. First email I received in response was that my credit card would be refunded after the 30 day window for all refund requests had closed.

Then later, I got the email with the July 27th announcement, and after the rescheduled date was announced, I'd have 30 days from that point to request a refund.

I fucking hate Ticketmaster, they're just going to drag this refund shit out for as long as possible. The only way I decide to keep my tickets is with a new album release before the rescheduled date in 2021.

Yes TM sucks but it’s all in Axl/TB’s hands.  They are the ones that hold the keys.  A simple “cancelled” announcement is all it takes. We all get refunds and then they are free to announce a new tour at a later date.

Thanks for posting. See what happens on the 27th then.....but the Dublin venue's 'further update on July 6th' turned out to be totally untrue. Whether that date came from Ticketmaster or was (hopeful) speculation from the venue itself I'm not sure. 

It came from the local promoter MCD, who obviously get their information from the tour promoter. Ticketmaster is not to blame for once. And a venue won't give out information like that, as they have nothing to do with the staging of the show. They just rent out the place.

I wish! but it was very specific wording for North America...! EU dates obviously don't matter you see 🤔

The July 6th announcement mentioned by the irish promoter got delayed, so it very well will have to do with the announcement of the US dates and everything will be announced together.

Ok, why would it say North America and actually be for the world? Why would only American ticket holders get that email? Simple answer Is because it's intended for them, not the other countries. 

I would love to get an update, but there is absolutely nothing in that email suggesting there's info about Euro dates coming.

Why would they tell american audiences that dates for Europe will be announced? What american cares about that?? And since the various Ticketmasters in Europe also didn't send out an E-Mail announcing the July 6th announcement, it means nothing that they don't send one out now.

What are you on about? You are the one stating the clearly worded US Ticketmaster announcement will be for everywhere, I am saying that makes NO sense. Read over what we've both said, you've gone off course.

But if you think you've read something in that statement, that nobody else can see good for you👍

Fact is, it was stated on the irish promoters website that dates would be announced on July 6th. Since all other irish reschedules are already announced, it isn't unreasonable to assume that the delay is due to the fact that GNR wants to announce all european reschedules at the same time (like major bands do). That didn't happen and got postponed. Ticketmaster USA now states that dates will be annouced for USA on July 27th. It's not unreasonable to assume, that both european and US Dates will be announced by that time and that that is the reason for the hold up on the irish/european dates. That's all. To which you say, it's impossible because they stated in the E-Mail it's "North american" dates, to which I said, that means nothing. It's the same as Brits, who talk about a UK tour, when in fact it's a european tour.

Hey anything is possible, but if GNR dates are so inclusive then why was there two separate statements to cancel EU dates and then US dates? Why do all major bands announce their US dates separate, and then announce EU dates separate, Asian dates etc... maybe because all those areas are different and need separate notifications. 

The Irish promoter said July 6th, it was postponed! so as far anything else you said the only thing accurate is when you used the word 'assumed'. You're making assumptions and that's fine, but how many times have fan assumptions lined up with the actual doings of GNR? 

I didn't say it was impossible, I said the email said absolutely nothing about what you're raving about. What you are talking about is your guess at what could potentially happen, we could all throw out guesses and we'd all be wrong. I like to work with the facts when all the facts are clearly given, if it was for the world then EU ticket holders would have been updated by the ticket provider.

We could go back and forth on this until the 27th. We could also just wait and see what happens. Anything is possible is my point.

So is everyone expecting that there will definitely be some kind of announcement from Live Nation tomorrow about the U.S. tour?  Or is it possible tomorrow comes & goes with no update?  It seems crazy to me that they keep people waiting this long to see if they can possibly get a refund.

It's Guns N' Roses. So obviously that's a possibility. ;)

It seems equally crazy to me that a tour on this scale would be planned and followed through in 2021.

That said, I think we could see an announcement today, but I’ve learned never to expect anything with this band.

Yeah - rescheduling back in, say, April seemed realistic. It seemed ludicrous that we wouldn't be back to normal within a year. Now they haven't done so yet, it seems somewhat unrealistic. Obviously we don't have any idea of what may happen, but i'm not sure going to the effort of rescheduling only to have it cancelled again is worth it right now? 

Some news will have to come today though, surely, following Ticketmaster's emails.

Everything is changing so quickly, that I can see this as a way to cover their bases. If everything miraculously clears up in 6-9 months they can go out and tour...if not they can push back another year. But who is realistically holding their tickets and not getting a refund?
