ManetsBR Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 Exactly. If they were playing just that one single concert here, I think it would be possible. But no, they're doing a whole brazilian tour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvH Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 For all the complaints, complaints, complaints we have, I bet most of us would go see Gn'R in the states this year if they added three new songs like The General, Atlas Shrugged and Checkmate & brought back some UYI favorites like Dead Horse, Yesterday's and The Garden. Even with no imminent album release date that'd be enough to get me to go again.Axl would never be able to pull Dead Horse and Yesterdays off... I think he could, but would choose to do it with the clean voice. I've been listening to some '11-12 soundboards recently and I'm sure he can turn the rasp on/off at will. I wish they'd overhaul the setlist, shorten it to about 2 hrs and keep Axl onstage for a much bigger % of the show.By pulling it off, I meant sing it as it's meant to be. These two songs need full rasp, Axl already struggle with these back in the UYI days, so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victor.vFo Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I don't think Guns can sell out Morumbi... Maybe in 2010 they could, but now?The shows were announced on the front page of the biggest news sites of Brazil, and most of the comments were of people who went to RIR 2011 or the 2010 shows complaining about the lateness and saying they would never attend a concert again...I'll be at Rio again, ready to suffer from back pains after stading for hours waiting. I hope i'm mistaken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PITBOSS Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Exactly. If they were playing just that one single concert here, I think it would be possible.

Val22 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Cool! GNR has tons of amazing fans in South America, especially in Brazil!Thanks for your amazing support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auad Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I just don't see why they would think Axl's gonna pull in big numbers if it's pretty much the same show as last time.Do people in Brazil thrive on repetition like babies? Serious question.this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val22 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 What does it matter?At least I know when I see GNR I know I will get 3 hours of amazing songs and Axl Rose having a blast with his band members.I've seen Poison so many years in a row and they always did the same show, but they were having a blast onstage and so did the fans.GNR have songs that I never tire of hearing, so I don't have to worry about hearing some songs that might be boring.With GNR you know exactly what you're going to get. A damn good show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I hope it's not true as Guns N' Roses has really stained their reputation after RiR 4 here... Would be really surprised if they could get 3/4 of the audience they got in 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosaj Thing Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 If it's true, and if they sell out those venues, good for Axl and his band. If they don't and half of the building is empty, well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magisme Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Not sure what to make of this. We'll see. I just want to hear new songs and a decent Axl voice. I don't care if 5 people show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 What's the capacity of these venues? I don't think they'll have a problem selling tickets. It's not the US.Gigantinho holds 15 thousand.The Morumbi Stadium holds 63.The Murumbi Stadium has a seating capacity of 81.000, according to Wiki, 67.428 according to StadiumDB or 66.795, according to WorldStadiums.At any case, it's a huge stadium, even for GNR @ SA.

Shooting Star Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 So, turns out they'll perform at Gigantinho after all... well, at least it is close to my home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shooting Star Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 No!! Gigantinho is a fuckin' garbage pail! What happened to the FIERGS park? It's the best place for a concert in this fuckin' city.IMO Arena do Grêmio should be the stadium of choice, if they make it a point to play in one.Anything but Gigantinho! What's the problem with Gigantinho? Honest question.Would like to hear your opinion It's too old and small, and the place is almost literally falling apat. Pyrotechnics are a big nope because of the roof and narrow acces, and after what happened at a club in Santa Maria last year, there's no way those will be allowed. Plus, with the main stadium under construction right next to it, it will be impossible to get to. And I don't mean impossible as in being stuck in traffic for a while, I mean most of the main access streets are closed off or detoured and parking is more of suggestion than a reality. Grêmio's arena is, at least, a completely new building, t's much larger and it's located right off town by an equally new, recently completed (as in, a few weeks ago) stretch of four lane highway. Getting these is a breezem there's plenty of space to park and no one will complain about the noise.Also, I made a promisse never to enter Gigantinho Thank you for the detailed answer No problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattElias Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) What about Belo Horizonte? Does anybody has some kind of clue where it will be?

DieselDaisy Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Surely even South America has a breaking point with this band, a tour too many, a bridge too far? Or to rephrase the question, can Axl play to cavenous Latin American stadia, indefinitely (i.e. without an album and the same setlist)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
