niceguy Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Nice! Vegas residency makes sense for Axl and his band, financially. No hauling around gear, no crew, just play night after night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARBeast Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) Now Fernando can get back to gambling his inheritance from "Mr. Axl". No better spot than Vegas.Give it a go, big boy!!! You so handsum!!!!!!! Edited December 11, 2013 by ARBeast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhazUp Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 gnr should just give up if they are going to be just a vegas attraction.I too am not as pumped as others seem to be about thisIt would be different if Axl was at his 2010 level, there was a new album to be exited about, and if there had been more stuff going on between the last Vegas thing and now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Unless Axl's voice is fixed, and unless there's new music, I don't give a fuck. This has been going on too long.This.If Axl sounds like in 2010 and he adds new old songs to his set, I'll be there for the 12 dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amacfantasy Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Ok 2-3 new songs played live sounds pretty cool , and I know any news is good news in GNR. But all this means nothing if there is no new album released during this, I've been telling the same tale since shortly after CD's release. Endless touring alone is not conducive to pushing the New GNR band forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hudsonsaul Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 What's a 'full residency' exactly?Similar to what they did before, just for a longer period?....or was what they did before considered a full residency? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazey Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Ugh I dunno. Vegas is pretty far an expensive to get there. Maybe I could do New York.Vegas is about the same price depending on your flights and one helluva lot cheaper for accomodation and spending money once you get there. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trqster Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 It's funny that Axl seems to be content to be playing in Vegas with his band, while still being able to fill big arenas, small stadiums and big music festivals in a lot of places around the world....

IncitingChaos Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I just hope he's up for promoting the gig like he did last year. I would love to see an Axl Rose and Howard Stern interview at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 What's a 'full residency' exactly?Similar to what they did before, just for a longer period?....or was what they did before considered a full residency?As opposed to just 2 or 3 gigs. Last one was 12 gigs -I'd consider that a full residency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Street Of The Blues Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) Right on, gonna stay tuned in for the exciting details. So hopefully it will play out well like last time, except for the pre-residency jungle choke and too many covers.

dalsh327 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I just hope he's up for promoting the gig like he did last year. I would love to see an Axl Rose and Howard Stern interview at some point.Joe Rogan and Adam Carolla wouldn't be too bad either. Even Mötley Crüe and the Bret michaels experience still sells out arenas.Nothing wrong with a residency, even for a second run, but frankly it is hard to swallow that a band that could have been the next Rolling Stones ended up being Wayne Newton.No one's thought of Vegas like that in 20 years.

NightProwler Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Meh. I want new music... and when I say new music, I want an actual album. 64-year-old Bruce Springsteen is putting out his second album in three years next month. Lets go, Axl.

Mr. Dude Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) I hope Axl doesn't do any promotion. TV interviews and talk shows humanize him which detract from his mystique. I feel like Slash has overexposed himself at this point and now I just think of him as some sort of barker. Axl is still an artist because he has never made himself a commodity.

No one's thought of Vegas like that in 20 years. Celine Dion then? Point being, of all the bands from that era, I'm sure few thought at the time GNR would be one Of the bands doing Vegas residencies in 20 years. But it's where they're at now, have to make money somehow and doing a large number of shows in one place relatively near your home is a pretty sweet gig. It's good they're active and we'll get to hear Axl's voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
