  1. Well in some parts of the world gnr can play stadiums like south and central america,germany some eastern europe countries (bulgaria,romania),japan,australia,india...gnr is big band maybe not bih like in 90'es,but still big...

    Absolutely, no dispute whatsoever, It would be nice If that was still the case In the U.S

    It wouldn't be nice for you, because you're not a fan.

  2. Check your facts again asshole 8302 and no need for anymore of your bullshit private message. Guns did not outsell def Leppard for the past 10 years, last year Leppard averaged 8,364 per show grossing 19 million compared to Guns doing 6,400 per show and grossing 11 million. Oh wait, Its not fair, Its not fair. You Double Talking Jive motherfucker.

    AGAIN, they weren't touring by themselves, they were touring with HEART and they played TEN MORE SHOWS than GUNS, so again, you're an ass hat.

    So, what your saying Is that Heart was the determining factor In Def Leppard having a larger attendance then Guns N Roses, If so ,out of the 8,364 how many fans do you think was there because Heart was on the bill.

    I have no idea, what don't you ask someone who gives a shit?

    That's what I thought.

    They are big, but not as big as ironmt's girlfriends ass... that shit is HUGE!

    And certainly not as big as your mothers. At least that's what I was told after she was gangbanged and left along the road.

    I think it's great of you to join in with your funny joke, you've really lifted our spirits. :thumbsup:

  5. uh, guys . . . GNR is a MAJOR headlining attraction around the world.

    irrelevant? please. i swear 99% of the people on this site struggle with basic language comprehension.

    GnR will never

    release the best selling album of any year or will it be the most anticipated by mainstream music like they once were thats what irrelevance is. GnR is like ACDC or metallica in that if they release music it'll sell good but it wont crossover to other audiences it will only sell to their core fans so it wont be a humongous hit like Kanye West or some other pop rapper artist out there. Also most rock bands are headliners out side of the US its still huge over there so if ur basing it like that no rock star is a hasbeen. Finally I just think there legends so who really gives a crap if Axl or anybody who was in guns relevant now a days.

    Your writing is so bad, it's like trying to decipher the da vinci code... what the fuck are you babbling about?

  6. Fuck Axl's band!

    Uhhhhh . . . kudos to you if that is how you feel . . . but maybe you can find more productive things in life than spending so much time on a fan site devoted to that band?!?

    what do you mean?

    was quoting Bumble.

    That wasn't very clear, was it sweetie? You need a couple of these " ". And Bumble never said "fuck axl's band!"

  8. To the original poster, Def Leppard and Motley Crue are as big of a draw or bigger then Guns so I'm not sure why they were used In your example. As a matter of fact aren't Guns following In Motley Crues footsteps with the whole Vegas residency thing.

    A comparison of Def's, Motley's and Gun's last album sales figures, show how very little you know.

    What the fuck does album sales have to do with the venue size and how many fans show up at the concerts.

    Both GN'R and Motley toured in 2010, but you won't find Motley on Pollstar's list of the 50 biggest tours (in terms of revenue) for 2010, but you do find GN'R grossing $39.7 mill. Def Leppard toured in 2009, but grossed a lot less in that year than GN'R did in 2010 ($25.9 mill vs. $39.7 mill). So I dunno....

    EDIT: While searching some more I did find a complete list for 2011 in North America with Motley grossing more than GN'R ($21.1 mill vs $11.2 mill). So it seems Motley may be more popular than GN'R in the US, but that GN'R is able to draw bigger crowds outside of the US.

    nice job at actually doing the research Instead of just making claims as certain members seem to do. I would definitely agree with Motley being bigger In the states and Guns being bigger overseas.

    That's funny, since you obviously didn't do any research to justify your claims… let me break it down for you.

    Guns N Roses played 35 shows and grossed 11.2 million... Motley Crue didn't have their own tour, they played as part of "Glam-A-Geddon", which included Poison and the New York Dolls. They played 51 shows, 16 more than GN'R, and grossed 21.1 million.

    On average GN'R grossed 320,000 per show, so if they'd played an extra 16 dates, they would have grossed 16.3 million in total, on their own. In comparison "the Crue" made 4 million more, and they had the added draw of Poison and the New York Dolls, who both tour very successfully on their own.

    It's not a fair comparison, but even so, based on these stats, it doesn't look as though Motley Crue on their own would gross anything near to what GN'R does.

    In regards to Def Leppard, GN'R have been outselling them in the US for the last 10 years.

    So, again. You really have no idea what you're talking about! Please do some research before you post, you're yet to post any comparative numbers to justify your speculative claims.

  10. lol

    axl owns the gnr name and will continue to make millions with it

    slash fans mad

    lol

    axl will continue making millions, but artistically he will continue being a zero. :shrugs:

    Because the rest of the AFD lineup is really breaking new ground artistically eh?

    Oh wait, no. Slash is making more generic rock than ever before, Duff's Loaded is awful, Izzy doesn't care, and Steven is a corpse.

    Name one thing that Axl has done to break new ground artistically post Slash.

    Silkworms! :takethat:

  11. To the OP, I'd ask that you consider requesting this topic's removal.

    It doesn't break rules, so I won't delete it unless you ask, but sharing a conversation like that goes against the spirit of the board. Obviously Ron has been a little snappier and less patient with people since his accident, but look at what you're asking him... and then you go and post it?

    One of these days, these guys will stop talking to us altogether...

    He think things clear and avoid facing these many things, rather than speak bad behind and then smiling pose for all the pictures .

  12. If Axl wants to put an album out, he'd put it out. He doesn't. I'm not entirely convinced he wanted to put out Chinese democracy. He doesn't have to go through the label, he could put his stuff out for free. How could do a radio head name your price deal. There are plenty of ways to get music out.

    The buck stops with Axl. You don't even get a chance to deal with the label putting out the music until there is music to put out. It would seem the music isn't quite finished.

    Or maybe Axl doesn't even want to put out an album. It's whatever. All I want to hear is the rest of the bucket head and finck cd songs and then I'm done with this incarnation unless they find some way to wow me.

    GN'R CANNOT put stuff out "for free" as you say. It just can't happen. They are under contract with UMG. Radiohead was able to do what they did because they were not under contract with a label.

    It is that simple.

    Kanye West has been puting out music for free that ended up on his albums and he is on a label. His album "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" featured 4 songs previously released entirely for free in their final form and one remix of the lead single. One of his biggest hits "Can't Tell Me Nothin'" was put out for free before the albums release. Nine Inch Nails also has purposefully released songs that ended up on albums for free.

    The fact is it can be done. The label didn't sue Kanye. Many artists have picked up on this model. If Axl really wanted to put out music he could.

    If you're talking about the GOOD Fridays program you're missing one very crucial point: it was through Kanye West's own label.

    Nine Inch Nails are not on a label.

    So, those examples are not applicable to GN'R. Try again.
