BatVin Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 whats so wrong about playing a private gig anyway ? im not understanding They can play a private gig for a select audience of fans or they can play a private gig for some rich Rednecks. That's what's wrong about it.yeah. They can make 100 of all the fans happy and the rest of them angry that they couldnt make it to that show. Or they can make some serious money on that rich celebrities and spend it for example on a new album, or live DVD or wathever for all fans.

Axl_morris Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 (edited) Why would fans be angry that they can't attend? If that's the case then you need to get a grip. Concidering they have just toured Europe and seen loads of fans. It's sad when people half way round the globe take offence to a private show, that if it wasn't, they wouldn't attend anyway.

Axl_morris Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I think it's a bit sad really. Axl can't do a private gig in Moscow for $1 million(????) because "of some fuckhead in Iowa" who is jealous that he can't get involved.Axl's said before he sees these gigs as an opportunity to relax and chillout away from the hassles of touring. The fans have had more that enough opportunity to see the band on this tour and I bet they paid a lot less for the privilege than whoever these Ruskies are.What that guy said!

omg1999 Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 hahaha this is unreal, i really can't belive some of these posts....Got home from work and thought i'd log in to see if there is any more news on tonights private show (quite excited that somethings happening tonight as the last few days have been pretty dull since the Euro leg ended).How can people be pissed off that Guns are playing a private show? why not just be happy that a) they are actually doing someting & B) that someone thinks the band are amazing enough to pay $1m so he and his friends and family can rock their bollox off!If this had happened in 1998 during 'the silence' we'd have all been jumping through hoops for updates and news, whilst bursting with exitement...............yet when it happens at the end of a year of solid touring whith the band on absolute fire, some people have the cheek to moan about it for whatever pointless reason.Unreal.

axlsend Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I think it's great that they are doing a private gig. I wish I were rich enough to have one, I'd invite a few people off here. A nice end to the European leg before they go home for a rest before Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostie Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I think the Scorps just did this a while back, but then had to distance themselves from whomever set it up because of politics or some such thing. I may be off a bit, but that's what I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bansidhe Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 Guessing it's just a way for the band to maximise their income (Yes a big tour brings in lots of money anyway but a lot of people need their wages) and it's also just something different for the band rather than just playing big arena or outdoor shows.

wildhorses Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I thought the idea of being in a band was more or less a job to entertain people, isn't that what they are doing, entertaining people??? Who gives a rats arse who's paying what to have them play whether it's to a crowd of 15,000 or 150, fans or non fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
