realpoti Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 I'm impressed; everywhere I go and even on social networks in which I participate, RIR is always brought as subject. The most viewed YouTube videos (for 2 days) are "Otherside" by Red Hot Chili Peppers and "One" by Metallica. All the news coming out every hour analyze the shows, problems and pros of these three days. We still have four days with Stevie Wonder, Coldplay and finally to close the night, Guns N 'Roses.How are you guys facing it? Is this considered big outside Brazil? The festival itself has many flaws and atrocities in the lineup (Rihanna, Katy Perry, among others), but rock bands have made worthwhile. I watched on television these days and I was thrilled with RHCP (which was weak). I bet Sunday will be the best day of my life (System of a Down is also one of my favorite bands) and would like to know how do you view the grandeur of the event for Guns.

ITW 2012 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 It's the most important show in the history of New GNR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NewGNRnOldGNR Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 I think the importance of the occasion is expressed on Axl’s left arm: Victory or death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

realpoti Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 I'm reading a lot on twitter about what people are expecting from the upcoming shows, and the most expected show is without a doubt by Gn'R.It's easy to find things like: "Only Gn'R can beat Metallica" or "Gn'R will do the best show of this festival". I'm excited =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gunns5 Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 cant wait for all the media buzz the day before and the days after the GnR set.The board will be flooded with it (and hopefully for the right reasons :xmassrudolph: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsguy Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 This gig is VERY important for this band just before a US tour. They will be listed on youtube site all day you can't buy that exposure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gunns5 Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I think Rio will be like the hammerstein shows in 06 (but obviously different in a lot of ways) however drawing on the similarities of that show, I think they will be debuting all the songs that they plan to play throughout the tour in order to give the U.S market a taste of what is to come when they hit their home towns.Hammerstein got twat, I.R.S, Better etc so its going to be great seeing (hopefully) some new songs debuted at Rio if history is anything to go by.

Ghostie Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I watched the RHCP play on YouTube last evening, and it was pretty amazing, especiallly the crowd. I see it as a great springboard for the NA shows, and as someone said, the biggest show for Guns post Slash, and I don't mean number of people in the crowd. Have a feeling Axl knows this as well, and will step up to the plate ala Babe Ruth. Sunday yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stro Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Metalica crushed it. The crowd is so awesome and warm and loving. I hope Axl and the band show up like 2001 like they have something to prove. Watching some of the performances this year has got me more excited than I already was. Roughly what time are they scheduled to play for EST in the US? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
