JAxlMorrison Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 It is definitely my belief that the band should attempt to make some of these tickets available to some of the most hardcore fans here on the board through a giveaway or a contest type deal, maybe even with a meet and greet. I know there were radio stations doing giveaways for the last tour, but it would be nice for the band to throw their biggest supporters a bone in this type of fashion, especially if the tickets are going to be as pricey as I have read. I think that this would be a real great way to say thank you to some of us for our years of support and dedication. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it would be a nice gesture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drtydane Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I just wish they would PM the forum people a presale password for the shows. That way we get dibs on tickets, they get paid, and its a nice gesture to the hardcore fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though- Axl wants the dough, he's not a charity. And PMing us forum members the password? How fast do you think it'd take for someone to pop that on ebay?

gunsguy Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Honestly I love this community, I love the fans, tha band but I fail to see how any of us are any more hardcore than a fan without the internet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAxlMorrison Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) Honestly I love this community, I love the fans, tha band but I fail to see how any of us are any more hardcore than a fan without the internet...That sentence might have worked n 1998, but who doesn't have the internet in 2012 who lives near the NYC area?!Anyways, I am not worried about those slobs, or any other board, just my people here on MyGNR.
