Roush Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Ugh, this band. They have a million, and one methods to get your money.Yet they cannot do so much as to release one new song on iTunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Roush, when you click on the nightrain forum you are immediately brought to a page where you can purchase a standard or a premium package. Click on the shop - perhaps expecting some exclusive t-shirts - and the only two things you can buy are, the same standard membership or the premium membership. Oh, there is some 'free' in depth and insightful information on the discography (apparently Appetite was released in 1987!). Everything about nightrain is aimed, to rob you of your money. Which is pretty much like new gnr these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Drama Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I think it is kinda stupid how you can only see photos if you're a paid member. I mean, really? Photos? That's exclusive content?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gun Shy Assassin Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 (edited) I think it is kinda stupid how you can only see photos if you're a paid member. I mean, really? Photos? That's exclusive content?!Agreed. And I don't know about you, but I'll be damned if I'm going to pay money for an additonal reminder that it's not Slash, Izzy, and Duff that are in the band.

downzy Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 What previous actions have GNR made that would make anyone (other than the blind or stupid) pay money without recourse for refund?I can understand the payment if the band operated like most bands do (release music at a regular interval, release b-sides, offer discounted features for fans, etc), but this is GNR and that's never going to happen. So why pay $50 to further suspend that fantasy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey we're all glad that your here to spread your Christmas cheer though. Keep up the good work. It's important that you keep reminding us why the band doesn't meet your criteria for online fan clubs.

Rustycage Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 It's important that you keep reminding us why the band doesn't meet your criteria for online fan clubs.It doesn't meet the criteria for ANY fan club but with the way this band operates, they could charge 50$ for a picture of Axl's turd and people would buy it.

HisRoyalSweetness Posted December 24, 2012 Author Share Posted December 24, 2012 it's not entirely true to say that you have to pay for photos. you have to pay for photos of AXL. you can look at free photos of the replacements at meet n' greets all day long.since there's no reply on actual paying members yet, i take it nobody knows? there's no way to check?

I've never seen any sort of indicator as to how many paying members there are. I can tell you this; it's going to drop off by like 90% come February.
