So only 6 weeks until Axl gets off the couch and starts rehearsing his voice 

There are rumors that the No Filter 2020 US tour will be rescheduled for this fall.

Rumored dates so far are Minneapolis on August 28 and Pittsburgh on October 3.

It just makes me laugh when random people on the internet assume they know more than the promotors who have extensive data and research at their fingertips and are willing to invest millions of dollars into the production of these tours.  But I'm sure you have a better grip and insight than live nation does.

 

The negativity of this board drives me mad.  Please find me one single show on the 4 year NILT tour that sold poorly.  Just one please.

I don’t believe that I know more or have better insight than LiveNation/GNR, but as @RussTCB said, since 2016/17 the interest in GNR shows continuously declined, they played Arenas and Vegas Casinos in 2019 and now suddenly they want to sell out Stadiums without new music or a co headliner? I simply don’t get their logic.

I know people here who listen to the parascopes and whatever are tired of the shows and the band but for somebody who maybe saw them once in 2017 and hasn't seen them since they will buy tickets and there is waaaaaaaay more of them then there is people here complaining about Axl's outfit here.  GnR is still a hugely popular band.  Nostalgia or not.

I disagree. Most of the casual fans who wanted to see GNR did this in 2016-2019. Especially in the US, they had enough opportunities to tick it off their bucket list and I doubt that many of them are desperate to see them again (especially when they look at the ticket prices). Also GNR is not the only band that  will be on tour this Summer/fall.

And many of the forum members, the die hard fans, won’t spend money on GNR until they have new music or at least a decent sounding singer.

So imo announcing even more dates in big venues is nonsense, neither the casuals nor the die hard fans will be that interested and willing to spend this amount of money 

But then again as others already stated, LN wouldn’t have booked these dates if they weren’t 100% sure they would sell well. Maybe they know something that we don’t now regarding new music or co-headliner. GNR needs to have an ace up their sleeve to make these shows sell well imo

I can see Axl's grandma singing along to Heaven's Door; Out Ta Get Me not so much.

Axl‘s grandma singing along probably sounded like any GNR show from 2018 

New dates for a tour that will start in one month?? Or are they teasing something else?

Startribune critic/reporter responded right away-

 

Thanks for your email. No further word about GNR. But a Target Field rep told one of our reporters that the concert isn’t happening this year. As you probably know, Live Nation/Ticketmaster operates in strange ways. So does Axl.

So how is this tour supposed to go along? Will they play half of the Shows this year and the rest in 2022? Will they only play the dates they can do in 2021 and cancel the Rest (maybe also because the sales are poor)? Will they move the whole tour to 2022? But then again they play Europe next Summer, and outdoor venues in the north of the US can be a pain in the ass during the fall. And I don’t see them playing the US shows immediately after Europe like they did in summer 2017, Axl needs some rest 

I don’t know how they’re gonna work that out

Fernando on Reddit, 4tus' Guitar School from December '14/early '15 and what Fernando told Rick.

No disrespect, but Fernando and 4tus are not exactly the best sources when it comes to new music 

just a quick reminder of how the bloody redhead can sound if he really wants to

Where were you since 2017?

Once again, I’m not convinced Brian can handle a tour. I said the same thing last time he guested with someone a few years ago and I see no improvement here. 

I mean he’s 73, didn’t play a whole show since 2016, didn’t play a venue of this size since 2017.. I’m sure he wasn’t that well prepared plus I heard someone over at the AC/DC forum said he had laryngitis.. I also doubt he could handle a year long tour, but some shows here and there, like the Stones do, maybe some more.

He’s hitting all the notes, his voice just sounds unprepared and strained, some rehearsals, some warm-up and he’ll ne good to go imo 

FF with Brian in LA, 2nd May 2021 

AC/DC - Power Up 

Just listening to the whole album for the first time this year. Still a banger!

Motorhead & My Bloody Valentine were without doubt the loudest bands I saw live. The bit in “You made me realize” where they do the white noise thing on that one chord is almost intolerable.... My ears would whistle for at least a day or two each time I saw Motorhead...

Where did you catch the Stones?

Hamburg, Amsterdam and Berlin on the No Filter Tour 

GNR - 5x since 2017

AC/DC - 4x since 2015

Rolling Stones - 3x since 2017

Queen + AL - 2x since 2016

SMKC - 1x in 2019

The Who - 1x in 2015

David Gilmour - 1x in 2015

Noel Gallagher - 1x in 2018

Pink - 1x in 2019

James Morisson - 1x in 2019

Die Toten Hosen - 1x in 2018

Steve Hackett - 1x in 2015

Coldplay - 1x in 2017

John Mayer - 1x in 2017

Probably missing some gigs 

Sounds like one of the best versions of the tour, at least voice wise. From 2017 onwards it was dreadful. Sadly Slash’s solo here doesn’t do it for me

Dion Dublin was on the radio this morning saying that if FIFA are threatening to ban players who partake in this from playing international football, that'll be enough to convince them to think twice about it.

I read that too. Not too sure whether FIFA can legally do this? I guess when they try to ban players from international football they will go to court 

FUCK THEM!

I‘m going back to watching amateur football in Germany. Reasonable ticket prices, real fans, players who still give all they got for their clubs, no horrendous transfer fees and most importantly, only 2€ for a pint!

I really hope that this league flops and the clubs participating will be punished by UEFA/FIFA/national FA‘s.

Susan said on the last podcast that this cover will be included on the next record.

You also need to check out the other videos on that channel. The Shotgun Blues one is also awesome, great attention to detail with Axl coming in early after the solo

I stopped reading here 

I stopped when I saw „... is back with more info“. If my time as a GNR fan taught me one thing, then that there’s no insiders in GNR apart from Axl Rose. Not even his bandmates  can give any serious updates
