Spirit Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 Rock In Rio festival in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on October 2 in front of 75,000 fans. Is it not like 200,000?No, the festival isn't as big (capacity wise) as previous editions. 2001 was the largest with over 200,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spirit Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 (edited) LOL. RollingSone-"Also, expect the band to take the stage comically late with no one onstage named Slash, Duff or Izzy. You will get a Bumblefoot, a Dizzy and a former member of the Replacements, though."Sounds about spot on.I wonder how long the tour will last before it crashes and burns. What will cause such a situation ?I can see you are crossing your fingers.... Edited September 21, 2011 by spirit83 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you thrive on negativity?no.. it's just with Axl, things never work out 100%.. the cause ? audiences, managers, opening bands, local security, sound men etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNR 1991 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 They should've just announced the entire tour. I'm betting the next cities are Vegas, Phoenix, SF, LA, Seattle, and Portland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ppruks Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 oh man...no NYC? fingers crossed for a NYC date to be announced...otherwise Hartford will be my only show...might make it to worcester, but that's fucking far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spirit Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 They should've just announced the entire tour. I'm betting the next cities are Vegas, Phoenix, SF, LA, Seattle, and Portland.I think they would've if everything was finalized. Doubt they are doing this to tease the fans, rather giving people all definite info they have at the moment. If they didn't, some would cry out because no info at all was provided.

Black Sabbath Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 They'll probably play the IZOD Center for East Rutherford, which is like, right next to NYC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it not like 200,000?No, the festival isn't as big (capacity wise) as previous editions. 2001 was the largest with over 200,000.100,000 tickets per day, excluding VIP and guests. I guess 105,000 is more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val22 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 DAllas and Houston are huge cities. Every band always comes to perform in Dallas.As for being late, please again I say, many rockers since the beginning of rock and roll and concerts have been late. Some people, like Axl, are worth waiting for. Damn, I've been waiting 9 years to see this man!And I want to thank the fans of Rio for always supporting Axl and GNR. God Bless you all!Rock and roll all night and have an awesome time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
