I'm thinking of someone you never saw live, Elvis is the only one i can think of. You've seen everyone! Elvis and MJ. I did get to see MJ, but only once. I'd easily pay $400 for him. I never got to see Elvis of course, so I'd pay that for him too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draguns Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 21 hours ago, The Holographic Universe said: This is about the National Anthem, which isn’t even worth standing up for,so that’s why they neuter the performance. U2 played lived. And I’m almost certain Prince did. Did you not read this sentence? Such pre-recorded performances for the Super Bowl's halftime shows and national anthem have been commonplace since the 1990s; the NFL has confirmed this as standard practice. It clearly states half time shows. There are articles as well, which state that music artists lip sync for both the anthem and halftime show.

WhazUp Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) There was a time, specifically 2017 and most of 2018 where I was giving the band as a whole, many benefits of the doubt. Regarding setlists, new material, etc. all of it. I was willing to say "let's wait I am sure they are cooking something up" But lately I am just finding it hard to. New tour dates no longer excite me, and what was exciting from Locomotive and Dead Horse quickly got replaced with negativity from the whole TB/copyright saga since we can barely even enjoy recordings of those new songs lol At this point I feel like GNR are adding these random 2020 tour dates so they can make easy money and have excuses not to release any actual new material.

I doubt Axl is touring to avoid making an album. He is not the type to do something he doesn’t want to do. There could many factors if an album isn’t released. Maybe, internally, they have agreed they do not possess the chemistry to write and record excellent music. 25 years apart is a huge gap to bridge. And Axl surley has not become more cooperative in recordings habits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allwaystired Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Tickets are HOW much?! I don't care for any of the arguments around 'market value' and 'corporate demand' - those prices are disgraceful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sausagebrain Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Cool. Maybe Duff's beloved Seahawks will be there too. (Pity about Axl's Raiders though, eh?) GnR has the brand strength and the cross generation appeal that would make them perfect for the actual SB half time show. Maybe the organisers are scared that they would do something naughty?

I can't attend this show anyway but I looked at the tickets. $500 face value for regular floor seats?!? At the last Miami show I paid three hundred something for pit and I thought I might be nuts for paying that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What concert and tour did you manage to see him at out of curiosity? I've probably watched almost every concert of his available online haha Weirdly enough I always thought the History tour was the one I'd want to see if I had a choice, even with the lip syncing. He didn't have the same energy he had during Bad tour or Dangerous but the production, band, choreography(along with his own dance moves improving) and set list were next level. Shame he only played Heartbreak Hotel during the Bad tour though, adored that songs live performances.

War2k14 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I'm glad this isn't actually the Halftime Show. The only way I'd like to hear them do the halftime show would be if Axl rehearsed his voice, which he doesn't really do anymore... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew032302 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) To be fair, it costs $1250 to be 8th row for Maroon 5 the day after. EDIT: Also not surprisingly, DJ Khaled’s show is the cheapest and is selling the worst. Edited December 17, 2019 by andrew032302 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
