Maybe Slash and Duff DO have say in the band. And clearly, it'd be for the best. The promotion does scream competence now. Something that's as foreign as English to Axl's people. Guessing they're just managing Axl now instead of the whole band/operation. And thank the fuck Christ for it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also being a lifelong resident of North NJ, I'm accustomed to the media and other refer to this are as New York. Shows at Giants Stadium/MetLife are generally advertised as East Rutherford, not NY. As a lifelong resident of NYC, the only people who refer to any part of Jersey as NY are the people from New Jersey :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you ever watch NY Giants games, they'll refer the Meadowlands as NY most of the the time. Edited March 26, 2016 by Draguns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's due to marketability and location. People know where New York is. People don't know East Rutherford, NJ. Broadcasters rarely mention East Rutherford, NJ.

My guess is they are handling the promotion in the sense they've picked out and hired the company doing it. This will be true for any management.

6lake sa66ath Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I don't think Netallica, they're too huge in their own right for it not to be announced in conjunction with GN'R, also they're supposed to be wrapping up their new album for most of this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point, they don't need each other. Metallica sold out US Bank Stadium in hours as did G N' R all their current shows. Now, after the first few legs of the tour, I could see them hooking up....but probably not until next year or later. And we would probably have some sort of new music before that happens.

I also think we are seeing much more elaborate promotion now, compared to previous tours, because the promoter is willing to put more money into the promotion.

Yes, they seem to understad what it will take. Between what we're seeing so far with the promotion and how any rumor/news about the band goes immediately viral through social media, etc....I think they will sell out these shows immediately. The larger markets within hours, with second dates announced after they do....and the smaller markets maybe taking a day or two. This is this summer's hot ticket....whether you're a fan or not, it will be the place to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeyserSoze Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 3 hours ago, systronic said: Are you from Mississippi? My first GNR show was them opening for Motley Crue in Jackson in 87. If memory serves me correctly the last scheduled GNR show was the one at the Coast Colisieum in Biloxi in 02 that was cancelled. So, I agree with you a 100%, if they do a show at the Superdome there would be enough demand from a 200 mile radius to fill it. Mississippi in general usually fills most rock concerts as it's something that the area as a whole is lacking. (other then New Orleans) I remember them cancelling the show in Southhaven in 2011 I believe it was, but did they also have a show on the coast that was cancelled as well? no I'm from NOLA. i think there was a show in biloxi in 2010/11 that was cancelled... i can't remember. i do remember a friend of mine had a ticket to go and was planning on going up until the day the cancelled it.. they told him his ticket could be used the next night in Nashville. i just can't for the life of me remember where it was in Mississippi. it might be the southhaven show I'm thinking of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
