Aerosmith was doing an arena tour after Steven was sued for statutory rape. Backstreet Boys have been unscathed by the accusations against Nick Carter which have been out for years. But Manson is probably never going to be able to tour again. It's kinda random how these things work out.

Anyway I expect Axl to settle. The discovery process could bring out a lot of other bad stories.

Guess I was wrong about this since Manson is opening for Five Finger Death Punch this summer. Maybe nobody does get cancelled.

It's going to be interesting to see whether the band will be able to continue as if nothing happened after everything is said and done. I could see it go either way. This lawsuit has definitely been reported very widely. A lot of people who didn't know about the allegations before are now aware. It could translate into at least some lost opportunities for the band.

NGL that prospective tracklist makes me glad we didn't get CD2.

11PM curfew.

Slither right now

Should have been a skeleton Shawn Michaels.

I was hoping for a litho inspired by WCW Beach Blast ‘93 but oh well.

Shadow sounding really raspy right now.

Why couldn't they do Don't Cry in Saratoga. 

I took a 2.5 hour drive solo to Saratoga Springs, missed the first four songs, heard  everything from PTU to DTJ while walking to the pavilion and finally got there in time for Estranged. Worth it, but I couldn’t have imagined they would actually go on at 7:20. And thank god I didn’t get a lawn ticket, holy crap. I’m not going to that venue again.

A real interviewer would ask him about "One in a Million" and the allegations of abusing women, both of which would be career-destroyers these days. He has every reason not to dredge those subjects up.

Gonna be there. Super excited. I havent been to this venue before, I didn't even know until right around the time this show was announced that they had even built a soccer stadium lol. Gonna be a great weekend, Ghost is playing in town Sunday!!

I saw Ghost last Sunday in CT. Awesome show. Amazing to see Metallica, GNR, Ghost and Smashing Pumpkins - 4 of my favorite bands - in a 20-day span, what a month. Have fun!

It's on Amazon Music now.

I just bought my tickets three hours ago but they're not showing in the Ticketmaster app. The barcode shows on the TM website but when I click the event in the website no tickets show. Is this normal mere hours from the event? Probably not!

Yeah I'm heading after work so have a light rain jacket in case. If the rain starts after 3-4 beers in I'll be grand! Is it a tough place to get out of? Going for the first time from Downtown Brooklyn

 

I saw Metallica there 11 days ago and it was an absolute fuckin' madhouse getting out. I had a 30 minute walk to my car which didn't help. But leave early or wait a long time, those are the choices.

They took stage at right around 7:40 in Hershey.

 

MetLife curfew is 11pm

 

 

Are you sure Metlife has a curfew? In 2016 the show ended at 12:40 AM. I know that was 7 years ago but I looked up Taylor Swift's recent shows there and they ended between 11:25 and 11:40.

Just noticed the interactive map on Ticketmaster for the Metlife show isn't working. Is this something that happens periodically or should I assume it's not coming back? It's 2023, I don't like to buy blind.

I figured they moved Jungle a couple of spots later because they were doing that Rumble intro over the summer and thought it was too early to do a jam/solo as the 4th song? But idk

He's singing it like the slow version, but fast...

"Better" probably would have done well on rock radio around 2001 or so but it wouldn't have been a major top 40 hit like those other songs you mentioned. Of course they would have had to push it hard the way any band does with a hit single and that involves promotion that Axl has not shown himself to be willing to do.

They don't drop the key on anything. He'll just Mickey it like he did in 2012. At least I'm looking forward to Slash's SOD solo.

At the first Metlife show in 2016 there was a black guy in the parking lot blasting OIAM out of his car. Not sure if he was making a statement, trying to be ironic or if he just enjoyed the song.

Shame that the tour is ending just as it's really kicking into gear. Sorry to tell the Euro fans that it's gonna start all over again next June. The 20-song sets, the weak Mickey voice, but it'll be good by July.

My bold prediction is they play TWAT tonight.
