TheHelgo Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 So....clearly the build up was too much for what the announcement actually was. I can't help but wonder if they truly will let the 30th anniversary pass without something during that week prior to St. Louis. I expected to at least see something scheduled for that time. I'm also surprised that there wasn't a Bluray or live album announced. Sorry if this has been discussed - just now logging on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may not have known all the dates or specifics nationwide but the minute they started promoting an announcement they were told what specifically they were going to announce. That's how it works. Yeah they did for sure. A local radio DJ here in Orlando said they were going to do arena gigs in the US. later this year and he announced that LAST SUMMER after the GN'R Orlando show. So like you said, they may have not known specifics but they've known about it for a while. Edited May 25, 2017 by Kasanova King 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detroit is right where I am, so this works for me, but it sucks for a lot of others throughout the country. I guess stadium shows are meant to be more regional since they fit so many people, but it'd have been nice to see more cities included that weren't a part of the 2016 tour 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kittiara Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 I'll admit it. With all the build-up to this, I held a little bit of hope in my heart for a new single. I figured a new album would be too much, as they've been busy touring, but one song... Guess I still operate under the delusion that despite tours being where the money is, musicians will want to make music. Oh well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. By far the most accurate post in the thread, and usually I don't enjoy Bono's work Edited May 25, 2017 by Billsfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.W.A.T. Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 OMG I am sooooo excited! The variety of songs played will be even less than the Chinese Democracy era tours...and the rest is practically the same act we've been seeing for almost ten years now!!! Damn this exciting!!!! So excited...can barely contain it. Oh man...I am going to have diarrhea. This 'Not in this lifetime' tour has lasted as long as a lifetime. What a cash grab. Bunch of old men milking the tit of their glory days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Nova Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 FYI they are saying the Little Rock Arkansas show will be a "larger than Life" experience...according to Classic Rock's site. http://ultimateclassicrock.com/guns-n-roses-2017-tour-more-dates/ It's an August 5th show and probably in the smallest market of the entire tour. They brought Adler in for the 2 smaller markets last year so it's possible they might do something similar for this show. I'm not saying this could be the AFD 5 reunion show but I'm guessing they might do something different or special for this one. It's also the show before the Miami show (which sales have been slow so far) so from a marketing perpspective, this would be the show to do something different in order to drive ticket sales for the remainder of the tour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frenchie87 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 I'm happy. I mean I wanted to see them in an arena setting so this is perfect for me. Not coming to my area, but I am visiting family out West around Thanksgiving so the Vegas & 2 LA shows are the best options. Do you guys have any recommendations? I am figuring the Forum would be the best acoustic venue of the three, but will it sell out quick? Much appreciated! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This announcement was a huge disappointment in almost every way. BUT I must point out that Guns playing The Forum is going to be beyond epic. Been a dream of mine to see them there for a long long time. Best venue in LA and they have a LOT of history there. I know surprises and perks to these shows will be coming. Now that they're stepping into the arena circuit they are going to have to have guests and surprises. If these arena shows don't sell as well as anticipated that's only going to add pressure to make sure they start to deliver special stuff to the fans. Martin - could not agree more. Last year the "presales" were a joke. Logged on immediately after paying for the Nightrain "membership" (read scam) and no seats were avail. I settled for less than perfect only to find out that more PIT seats were released after the presale. Such a bummer. I am going to STILL give Guns the benefit of the doubt and think that they don't actually know about what's happening to fans. I'm sure Ticketmaster or whoever is promoting keeps those issues far far away from them. Probably even spins it to them if they do ask saying "oh there's no way to prevent small mishaps" etc. The fuck. Izzy if you are reading this it breaks my heart we won't get to see you. Fuck man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
