Dazey Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 For some it would breathe more life into the forum, the band, but then again most of the new band haters did not like CD so where does that leave us?It's one of my favourite albums.

Nosaj Thing Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 imagine how great it would be to see the real GNR play in such a small, intimate setting. i'd attend at least 3 shows ... maybe more if axl's voice didn't completely suck.The real (read: current) lineup of Guns N' Roses IS playing these shows.The real (read: original, best, true, legendary, most dangerous band in the world) lineup of Guns N' Roses IS NOT playing these shows.INB4 Rob, Ole and Tracii :coolface:Those three didn't do shit for the band.

Slash would just make a pathetic mess of himself trying to play Shackler's or There Was A Time. They wouldn't play those songs. And no one would miss them.If they were just going to play old GN'R songs to please fans who weren't around in the 80s and to earn money despite not liking each other, then I would rather they didn't reunite. If I want nostalgia I go to YouTube to experience the real thing, I don't want to see old rockers try to remember what made them the most dangerous band in the world. That would be a sad, pathetic sight.Better than what we have now, especially with the future looking pretty bleak. Seriously, unless Axl's got a big surprise for us, there's really nothing that points to a new nu album in the foreseeable future, and Axl's not getting any younger.I rather see the band that actually created the music, the legacy, and the history an overwhelming majority of people are paying to see, instead of the (essentially) nostalgic cover band Axl's with nowadays, seeing as how this might be all we'll ever see from them anyways. I was only three when the UYI tour ended, and would love the chance to see the real deal perform live in person.That kinda sucks for you then, huh? Seeing as how that reunion is never going to happen. Knowing that fact and knowing how you feel about Guns makes a person wonder why you bother with it at all anymore. I mean, every day has to suck when you come here for a constant reminder that your dreams will never come true. Ever.BBA is one step from being a psychopathic stalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that his Mommy and Daddy were cousins, etc.maybe it's just that coverbands aren't his thing.What has that got to do with anything?Even if he feels that the number of AC/DC songs and other bands' songs overshadow the amount of GN'R songs on the shows, he won't be there and therefore the shows won't suck to him. And according to the reviews from the European tour and the UCAP tour, the shows most definitely doesn't suck to the huge majority of attendees. Or is he really one of those creeps that go around feeling that shows he has no intention of attending suck really hard?

I saw shows in Wilkes Barre, east Rutherford, Camden, and Atlantic City. All were at least 85% full if not sold out. Do you have facts to base any of your statements on? Did you attend a show? Do you realize how insignificant your opinion is in the grand scheme of things?Dude, if these tours weren't successful, newsflash...they wouldn't do them. I have a desire to see them again.

Weird, because GN'R obviously believes 12 dates in Vegas is financially viable, which must mean they expect some return from the gigs. I guess whoever makes the financial decisions in GN'R just hasn't got your knowledge and skills, then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a hobby.none of the shows sold out, I can assure you thiseast rutherford was probably the best of the attendances but that is cuz it was the only NYC area show and I am pretty sure it was right before the thanksgiving break and yes I saw the show in Chicago, decent crowd but not a sell out, I am pretty sure there was some groupon that was selling tickets for like 60% off that helped fill up alot of the upper level seatsand whatever, I made my point, no way does this band do "arenas" again, if they want to play clubs and theaters that have 2-4,000 capacity they might be able to fill them if they dont charge $100 a ticket like they did on the UCAP tour, but if you think this band can play arenas again you are insane, like I said I know for a FACT most shows sold like crap, I am more or less a ticket broker and was monitoring pretty much every show, in many places they did not even sell upper level seats maybe you and your friends might see them, and other die hards who are not pissed off at Axl for not showing up at the HOF, but for the average fan they probably dont care anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
