  1. Correio Braziliense (something like Brazilian Mail) posted today that Metallica and Guns N' Roses will be playing in Brazil's capital, Brasilia (yeah, i'ts not Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro or Buenos Aires).

    Accordind to the paper, the Metallica concert would be in January 31st in the Mane Garrincha Stadium, and Guns N' Rose's in March 9th in the Nilson Nelson Arena. A documet asking for authorization was delivered to the Sports Administratrion of the state in October. The governor Paulo Octavio confirmed that the venues are reserved for the concerts. All the reserves of sports venues in 2010 have to be authorized by him

    The productor of the concerts said that only some burocratis problems are preventig them to officialy anounce the concerts.

    For AFD heavy setlists, < don't see any problem

    half-filled arenas, < don't think so

    late starts, < maybe, but.... who cares?

    cancellations, < I think this time Axl knows about the tour dates :thumbsup:

    and another replacement guitar player < So? Do you want Slash? I already said, go listen to him playing with the Pussycat Dolls

  4. How are people saying Chinese has not had any successful radio singles? Come on! If I recall correctly Chinese Democracy was as high as 3rd on the rock charts, behind AC\DC and I think Metallica at the time. It was very close of going #2 or #1, then Better came out and stole some of the numbers, Better was also a top 10 single. If we all would of picked up the phone and bombarded the radio stations with requests, or online polls we could of had both singles at #1! Believe it or not radio will play what people want to hear, it might not be as quick as it used to be to get your request on but it will eventually take affect. If we had a market like NY or LA playing the hell out of them the rest of the country would of followed.

    So there you can't say CD didn't have any successful singles, I think that is damn good for no video, tour, or promotion from the label or band!

    As for a world tour of nothing but CD never going to happen! We will still get the same setlist as the previous years, You will hear the GnR classics, and maybe a few off of Chinese. As much as we hate to admit it Axl and the band are out touring to get the money from the general public. We already made Axl rich, so he needs the money from the average joe's to pay the bills. If a world tour does happen, they need to promote the fuck out of it and do it the right way! Show up on time, play a kick ass set, and have some decent supporting acts. I think this band can not afford for any kind of disappointment. This might also be a good time to have a re release of Chinese with maybe a few more songs thrown in. Keep it out of Best Buys hands and give Wal Mart, and other retailers a chance to push it down peoples ears. This is Axl's only chance to get back any hope of being successful. Again we all have done our parts supporting GnR but we are not the ones who will make this band #1 again.

    Well, only some people said that...

    Here in Brazil I only hear Better twice in the radio, and CHinese Democracy none.

    But Chinese Democracy reached #1, in front of Black Ice, the #2 and Death Magnetic, the #3.

    Better and If The World were also played several times in the most seen TV program in brazil, Big Broher Brazil :rofl-lol:

  5. It looks like Axl Rose has to pay some bills.....

    Doesn't everyone have to pay bills?

    Ali

    Politicians in Brazil doesn't.

    Lucky bastards.

    Ali

    Well, actually they have to pay... but they don't pay.

    How long do you guys think it'll take for these tour promoters to start dropping "reunion tour" rumors after these dates are announced? I'm thinking after the first 2 hrs of tickets going on sale and they realize that they are only selling 20% of venue capacity. Right about then, we'll start hearing that "Slash will be taking the stage".

    Ok.... go listen do Slash with the Pussycat Dolls, I prefere Guns N' Roses and it's Chinese Democracy.

  6. I'm sorry, but I see ANOTHER Chinese D tour (without new material) being another failure of epic proportions. This album has been toured twice already. And the first 2 were only able to fill arenas to 50% or less capacity in most venues. It makes no difference that they finally released an album in the meantime. That album had no succesful radio singles and fell off the Billboard within a matter of weeks. Nobody cared. I hope I'm wrong, but unless they release another album (that actually contains songs that people want to hear) I see this tour being aborted within the first couple of months.

    This is how I feel. They can't get away with doing the same tour for the third time. It just won't cut it - I'm sure Axl knows that. That's why I have a feeling something will change this time around (well I think its a guarantee that they will be playing a lot more of Chinese Democracy, as stated by various people from the band).

    But they need to do more. That's why I'm hoping for more out of this announcement.

    The only plus about touring Chinese Democracy again this time around, would be that there are thousands of new fans (this time around, they are actually backing a real album! It finally came out). They might not have been able to fill stadiums in 2006/2007, but they might now - I'm sure they have many new fans from the album (not all the people that bought the album were us, hardcore fans, in case we forgot, ;))

    There are lots of fans who don't saw the New Guns N' Roses alive, from lots of places.

  7. That day played only stupid artists, that were

    So, all that people were there to see....hm.... Carlinhso Brown? Pato Fu?

    Oasis? Maybe.... but Oasis concert ended near to midnight, GNR went on stage about 2 am. Only stayed there who really enjoyed them.

    90% of the artists on that day were booed on stage, people threw things at stage

  8. Ticketmaster brings something odd up in Toronto in January of 2010 when I looked up Guns N Roses. Can someone check it out and tell me if I'm crazy?

    Ticketmaster??? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    they fucked with the AC/DC concert in Sao Paulo!!!

    wait...... HELL YEAH!!!
