No, every stadium has different fee and the fees depends on who is running it, he determines the fee. It can be a group, football club, city, privite ownership. But those fees are fix, just like Arena fees, don't matter season on or off, summer or winter.

Uhm, no! Stadium booking fees are totally other universe from 15-20.000 Arena's, doesn't matter used or not.

BREAKING NEWS Axl has Izzy's, Matt's, Adler's and Gilby's # on the speed dial

Ok, are you posting just for the sake of posting or what!? Which argument do you want or just choose both 1) last authentic material they wrote as a band, publicly acclaimed was UYI. Izzy was known to be the creative force, for not only co writting but taking lead vocals on some tracks too. Once Izzy left ad 6 years into semi reunion, the best they came up with was - Abs/HS. They can't craft a new album 7th year into 'reunion'. Enough evidence, now!?!? 2) yes Izzy probably main reason, creativly, but not the only reason. Each member '87-'93 had a purpouse why GNR became GNR and all those post years prove that. Considering you have 25.5k of posts, I thought you will figure that out from the posts, but here it is.

....or hanging around Slash/Duff he realized his Chinese shit, just like train wrech he released in 2008, was waaaaayyy below standards they set during AFD - UYI era and they figured out after HS/ABS it might better to avoid further damage of GNR moniker.

and no...i am not saying they are missing just Izzy. Not sure why you point only him out. They are missing the chemistry that created that magic. I thought you will understand that earlier but here you go. Even that TSI album, though covers, still had it musically.

Well if you think 32 years (and counting) is not enough evidence it takes much more than Slash/Axl/Duff to get an album crfated together according to GNR standards, then....dunno. Let me know when you do find another proof. As for TSI...There is a difference between 'getting an album out' (covers) and making an album. True, GNR is pretty unsuccessful at both for the past 30 years, but the difference is still there.

Not that Duff recorded anything listenable in the last 20 years or Slash anything after Anastasia, but to compare that with the guy whose last good record was a covers record in 1993 is pretty much what I would call 'driving the wrong direction'

You do realize that TSI was a coveralbum thou, right? A well recorded but cover nonetheless

SHIT! You really don't understand what it takes to have a great BAND and epic records. Nevermind...

Uhm, actually NO. Seems to me you have difficult time accepting that GNR as a band is gone and you are constantly on the look out for their new music like a junkie for drug, yet, nothing of GNR quality wasn't released under that moniker since '91. Face it, if they could release new music up to the quality in this line up - they would have. It is not because Ferrer or Fartus have dentist appointments or Mel has to go shopping. Actually, I would rather they end it than have more HS or Absurds. And belive it or not, not a single concert goer went to see them for any song that was released post '93.
