It absolutely stinks of trying to be 'down with the kids'....when most fans are in their late 30s, 40s or 50s. It's Dad trying to be cool at his teenage sons party.

GNR London looks extremely doubtful IMO. On this note again- did you see Lady Gaga put a show on sale last week at the same venue for this summer? Announcing shows in the middle of all this while everyone else is cancelling?! Even weirder is that apparently it's sold well! Who on earth is buying tickets for concerts that are 90 per cent to be cancelled in the middle of all this?! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Bond Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 How long until the Fam branded merchandise hits the online store? I both hate this band so much and love it at the same time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, I guess it depends on if those get postponed also. I think the last date of the rescheduled tour (Dec 6th or whatever it was) is going to be the last stop for 2020 because of the holidays, then if needed they'll pick back up in January. Then as far as the summer stuff goes, who knows at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then as far as the summer stuff goes, who knows at this point. I would hope to Christ that the world gets this shit resolved by July, in time for the US tour. i was in Portugal a few months ago and they had a TON of posters all around for gnr’s gig there in late May. Wouldn’t surprise me if all the Europe stops had marketing like that all over the place too. Makes me wonder how much the band will lose in marketing money. Same goes for all the other big tours from all of the other big bands that are getting canceled or postponed right now.

AxlRoseCDII Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I was hoping the “Fam” phrasing was only going to be used once, please don’t make this stick* *Fernando is probably just trolling us so me complaining about it is going to make it all the more used. Maybe we should say how much we love it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caedo Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I'd be surprised if the Europe or America tours went ahead, from what I've heard about the coronavirus the worst of it will last for another 6-8 months which would take us to the fall in the states. What I'm thinking is most likely is that they'll do the rescheduled South America dates, hopefully some Australia/NZ shows early next year, then the Europe/NA tour in spring/summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone is offended by a phrase that they have every right to think of and add to their own soical media platform for there own business brand than that's on them.... The band and its people can do what they like.. You have a choice accept it or ignore it. I and most of the world don't care about something so insignificant, with all that is going on in the world currently.

I and most of the world don't care about something so insignificant, with all that is going on in the world currently. Although if I can point one thing out with all due respect -you seemingly spend more time complaining about fans here than actually discussing the band. You can't claim you are above insignificant complaining during times like these when you do the very same thing Most people are just taking the piss out of a little dumb catchphrase, no need to go full on defense force Edited March 17, 2020 by WhazUp 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as we like to believe, we are not the majority of the fanbase and never have and never will be. the best way to fight fire is with fire. The only way we win is to go to these 2 guys' Instagram and social media pages and report everything they post about GNR for copyright infringement The only way we win is to fight back. Nothing on the internet will change unless we fight back and that's the truth of the situation Edited March 17, 2020 by Gibsonfender2323 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricA Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 6 hours ago, rocknroll41 said: Damn that would be a shame if the European fans had to wait that long. Maybe they should try to switch to different venues (like Bieber did recently), and double up the dates per city, if need be. 6 hours ago, allwaystired said: They could switch to indoor arenas yeah. But those would have to be September/October ....and I'm not even sure if Europe will have this under control by then. It's certainly not guaranteed. IF everything is under controle by autumn, it won't be easy to find free dates at indoor arenas, cause there are so many postphoned concert and other events, which will take place at the very same time. My hopes are very low seeing Guns (and other bands) in 2020😢 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many big bands teaming up (GnR/Pumpkins, Weezer/GreenDay/FalloutBoy, Motley/Leppard/Poison/JoanJett, FNM/Korn, etc.) Also so many bands getting back together (Black Crowes, MCR, Classic RHCP, Mr. Bungle, RATM, Motley, FNM, Classic AC/DC, Genesis, etc.) Fuck why couldn’t all of the above happen a year earlier...
