realpoti Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Kansas is far from Miami, I bet there will be various dates between these two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNR 1991 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I don't think GN'R has hit Kansas City ever with the new line-up. Not in 02 or 06. Hopefully the trend of adding new cities continues as I'm sure Texas fans want shows, since they've never gotten them. Amongst other places; Atlanta, New Orleans, Nashville, Denver, Phoenix, Indianapolis, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITW 2012 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 (edited) It'll be interesting to see how many dates go on sale before they announce a tour. This monumental promotion style is paying huge dividends if the presales for the Florida shows is any indication.

gunsguy Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 I would be the first to admit that if the ticket sales need a boost they need to promote the fuck outta these shows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITW 2012 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 My concern is that these shows will get cancelled due to extremely poor ticket sales. They should at least release a one off single to try and promote this tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should at least release a one off single to try and promote this tour.Presale ticket sales don't really paint a whole story though, if the general public does not know the password how can they get presales? Then you got walk in ticket sales as well as venue sales during public ticket sales dates.I hope they sell well, we as a fan base can only help so much online, the rest is up to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realpoti Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Interestingly, the arenas are fairly large. I hope they start to promote these shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 They better do a lot adverstising, get great reviews on the latin american tour, specially Rock in Rio, if they intend to fill up an arena like that in that US.... hoping for the best!

For GNR in Florida you could get floor seats (general admission) hours after the presale started. You can also still buy seats in the stands.

However since they started touring after CD release, what shows have been cancelled because "of Axl?"Sounds good, bring on more dates!!!This is an example of a positive attitude!
