DownUnderScott Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 The following is a look at some of the bands that are touring Australia in the next three months. It highlights a very saturated market and I just hope that these GnR Australian show dates actually get officially announced soon, that the tickets go on sale very soon, and that Axl and the rest of the boys do some promoting of these shows. Otherwise I am concerned that these GnR shows will have very poor attendances and be considered a failure :So Here goes -In January & February touring Australia are the following bands:Red Hot Chilli Peppers, The Killers, Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax, The Chemical Brothers, Weezer, Keith Urban, Elvis Costello, Ringo Star, Carole King, Norah Jones. Neil Finn and Paul Kelly, My Bloody Valentine, Deep Purple, Linkin Park, Blink 182 and many others... !In March just in my home city of Brisbane there are the following acts:Kiss and Motley Crue, Thin Lizzy, The Stone Roses, Prodigy, Temper Trap, Neil Young and Crazy Horse, Ronan Keating, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Santana and the Steve Miller Band, Dinosaur Jr and Bruce Springsteen and the E Street band, as well as many others... !!!In April there's more bands, including Black Sabbath ! It's ridiculously busy with artists touring.Is it like this in your Country ???Guns N Roses have not, as far as I am aware, officially announced this Aus tour or have tickets on sale.Also I have seen and abundance of promotion in Newspapers, with the artists themselves on Aussie T.V talk shows etc... and heard others being interviewed on radio stations.In some cases there are shows booked very close either side of GnR's proposed dates - e.g I think Kiss and Motley Crue are performing 2 nights at the Sydney venue where Guns are supposed to be playing like a day or two later.Many people would have allready bought tickets for these countless other shows.I reckon this could be the worst attended GnR shows in their history of touring Oz.

Redhead74 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 This is a most definite concern IMO. Shows are scheduled for March. It's January now. 2 months away and not even a confirmation or solid announcement. This doesn't seem right to me. I already have tickets to the following:Bat For Lashes in FebThe Stone Roses/Prodigy in MarchIggy and the Stooges in MarchNeil Young with Crazy Horse in MarchPublic Image Ltd in April.Of course if GNR do come I will go but to most people who have already bought other shows, unless they are pretty hardcore fans, the late announcement (if it ever comes!) is a worry.

It's around 8 weeks until they are supposedly playing gigs here in Australia and still no official word of it being for real. I understand they have had a full-on year, and busy end to 2012 and they are all enjoying a big break over the Christmas holidays but I think Promoters of this tour should be getting a move on. For many of the other bands and artists touring Oz in the next few months I have seen T.V interviews, heard the artists talking on major radio stations, seen T.V ads for the actual shows but for Guns - Nothing !I reckon an Australian winter tour would be more sensible as that would give people a chance to organise themselves, save money for tickets etc... but hey if they come in March I hope to be ready for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbirdie76 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 zztop and the angels should help pull the crowd inhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ue87tZUamiIfakeGNR suckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkI went to Townsville and the concert was pretty awesome the townsville people were never going to like anyone except the original bandMost people who went were korn fans and the townsville people were angry before they even hit the stage at 9pmSo... these people complained that the band was 'miming' - AND that it was bad? With people who are lip singing it sounds flawless, because it is a recording.They seemed mostly pissed that the band made them wait, oh well, like i've said before, it's a rock n roll show. People shouldn't go to a rock concert and expect to be home sleeping and ready for work the next day by 9...if you are, you didn't do it right!!

ThinkAboutYou Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) It's funny when I left from front row Townsville I didn't hear anyone complaining on the way out. I did though see a few korn fans leave before or at the of start of GNRS set because they didn't want to watch GNR Edited January 7, 2013 by ThinkAboutYou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot understand it. Why don't they go home and wait it out for a mythical reunion?Because apparently we're the crazy ones for actually hearing Axl and understanding his point of view. "Not in this lifetime." Maybe I'm just gullible, but I believed Axl when he said that. There's a scene from the movie White Men Can't Jump. And in the scene, Wesley Snipes tells Woody Harrelson "Oh you can listen to Jimi, but you can't heeeear Jimi." I think this phrase could be modified and applied to our friend izzydoezit here:"Oh you can listen to Axl, but you can't hear Axl." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bansidhe Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Pretty risky really leaving it late when there's all that other stuff on. Sabbath and the Roses will obviously pull a big crowd considering how long it's been since they were around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetness Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I'd be more concerned about how different the show is going to be from the last time they toured there, even then people will always buy tickets to see "Guns N' Roses", really isn't anything to worry about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
