Remember that Iron Maiden did a gig there a while ago; always kind of surprises me that not more bands tour a huge market like India!

Remember that Iron Maiden did a gig there a while ago; always kind of surprises me that not more bands tour a huge market like India!More bands don't do it because it's not profitable to lug your gear that far unless you're gonna do quite a few shows, and even then, the distance between major market cities is so massive and usually involves crossing water. Maiden were only able to break into Asia because of Ed Force One.
SoulMonster Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 I expect a full Asia & Australia legI hope so!Interesting trivia: If the Indian dates do happen then Bumblefoot will have played more live shows than Izzy (!).

Moreover, the GDP per capita in India is $2500, compare that with most developed nations and you understand why large bands that usually demand high ticket prices might not want to travel around the world. Yeah, it's a bigger market in terms of people, but there's very few people in India who could afford $50-$100 concert tickets.

Zint Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 It will be interesting to see what comes of this.
ChristmasFnatic Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 I told BBF if they are goin to India, they should stop by to Philippines too! He said he would love to be here and Indonesia.
Randy Jesus Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 I told BBF if they are goin to India, they should stop by to Philippines too! He said he would love to be here and Indonesia.After a wild night of drinking GNR loses BBF to Bangkok.
dalsh327 Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 I told BBF if they are goin to India, they should stop by to Philippines too! He said he would love to be here and Indonesia.Did he say that before the Jakarta announcement? He let it slip. But they just announced "only southeast Asia show", so if they did that, it would be false advertising... but then again, once the date's getting close might tack on extra dates.

Maybe he was dropping a clue about Jakarta, but about Philippines, he said the only chance is to have promoters here work a deal with GNR management. He said he would love to, esp. 3rd week of December.

Sounds legit thenI'll still wait until I hear Team Brazil or Axl confirm it before I announce it as confirmed on A4D, but it really looks promising they should confirm it already!... i have a feeling that maybe there are still some issues regarding the tour that needs to be sorted out. I think DNA is organizing this tour... and they better know that can't fuck this up like the Metallica gig last year. Among the rock n roll audience, GNR are what the people have been waiting for. Cmon!! Edited October 20, 2012 by Ketan
Apollo Posted October 20, 2012 Posted October 20, 2012 Hopefully it is the start of a new world tour in support of a new album.
