realpoti Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Axl loves Rio, I think it's an important place for him. He will make way for this to happen. I don't know if soon is the word, but it will happen, I'm sure about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all I am NOT an admin, lol but thanks some people were questioning how this happened with rain etc etc etc, well it is not a rare thing to happen, they have been many times before where this has happened, thought I would point that out. I never said anything about knowing anything so not quite sure what you mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Sabbath Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Axl's latest twitter update makes it seem as if there is definitely going to be a rescheduled show soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratus Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Back at home, read everything from my smartphone. I've managed to get really close to the venue under heavy rain but came back after Axl's first tweet. Axl's second tweet still leaves tomorrow as a possibility. Any more word on that yet?

Lets be patient. Im sticking with whatever decision the GNR camp and the venue take. You know... i have a premium ticket for the show, in front of the stage, and i was very near the entrance (in the line), it is slowly getting clear that i (and thousand of people) could be dead by now. The gates were set to open at 16 or 17 hours, and they didnt opened it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when you found them on the internet and know jack shit about the current situation down there. Just my opinion. We know that the stage collapsed and have seen pictures of it. Or is it just a lie?? Ironic if you have internet issues..There is one positive side of this scary scenario and that is Axl having a chance to rest his voice. For the first time EVER he had to sing the Better stick in a lower tune last concert.. Hope this turn out to the better in the end. I would have waited for better weather and an fresh Axl. The biggest problem now (assume no one got injured) is if all the fans are able to go to a re-scheduled concert. who were attending to this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had contact in the line with some groups for other brazilian states, and it was pretty sad for them the cancelation... lets wait and see, everything is gonna work out.

axl8302 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Shame that no one got to see the show, but at least no one was seriously hurt, from the looks of that picture someone could have got hurt real bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the first Guns show to ever get cancelled, but this one was a legit reason. Could have been alot worse. Main thing is everyone is okay.

Naupis Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 There is one positive side of this scary scenario and that is Axl having a chance to rest his voice.Hopefully he uses this time to rest his voice instead of going on another drinking/partying bender like he did before the tour started. This is definitely a needed rest for him, hopefully it is not squandered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That`s why they`re worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if they did, I'm assuming most people payed with a credit card, so they would and should still be able to get some sort of proof they had tickets. Same goes for the people who traveled.
