MOOCH5 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 You guys think we are looking at the same ticket prices as the last few US legs? I might make a run at a couple PIT tickets for Fenway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamillos Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 They don't have to release new music, they have to play new music. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJROX Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Interesting they're playing SoFi. I hope tickets aren't too expensive as I've already bought tickets to quite a few different shows for the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powderfinger Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) I’ll wait and see how the tour is going before deciding on Seattle... Saw McCartney in that place (assuming it’s the ball park in Seattle) sound was good. Alice in Chains would be a welcome opener again.... Seattle gigs are always good...

axlfan88 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I won't go, it's too depressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 A lot of negative comments on here about this tour and I can't say I'm overly excited of them doing a 4th run at the US in 4 years. If you look on their social media all the casual fans are excited and tagging their friends. I guess the lesson is to just become a casual and not nerd out about this band any more. ...I hope they play sweet child o mine this summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k12 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) I am guessing Fenway and Wrigley are going to be the only somewhat in demand tickets, both of those places people go for the experience of being in the ballparks in addition to the event Edited February 4, 2020 by k12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, would love to see Alice In Chains. But I think DuVall has a solo tour this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t-p-d-a Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I'm the only one who wants a Not In This Lifetime... home release? on Blu Ray, DVD and CD? Troubadour and LA Dodger were filmed. In Dodger he was pretty solid. :-( 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamillos Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Been saying this all the time. Finish NITL, release a DVD, and transform the setlist. It's March or nothing now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) Dodger stadium was filmed but they fell out with the production company. As well as having a long process with the appetite for democracy dvd. I think they just see it as more hassle than its worth. Realistically, Dodger is the only one that can be released as the show had extra cameras for todays standards.

Underhardy Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Seems like the general public and casuals on social media are over GnR. They lost all momentum. They’re running this machine to the ground Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a total waste of time filming all that footage to then fall out with the production company. What exactly was the fall out about?

They said the band wouldn’t hire them to film at Dodger Stadium, and when the cheaper production people they hired screwed up, GNR wanted their help. They wrote on Vimeo, “thank you…and then when the big money shows came around,,,they didn’t even take our calls and then agreed with tour promoters to use their in house people (always cheap) hired a company for Dodger Stadium who brought in a “FlyPac” to record the show.

Three cameras..????) The Production company called me when they knew they were in trouble..,it was my time to not pick up the phone, Fuck them.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So - 4C4 have filmed the Troubadour shows. The above reads like they didn’t film the Dodger show but another company did? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there were a load of empty seats in an Arena, in Miami a few days before the fucking Superbowl, with a very high-profile support act, and their response is......to announce a massive tour of much bigger Stadiums?! Whatever spin you want to put on this ('bigger markets' 'more iconic venues') etc etc, this makes absolutely no business sense WHATSOEVER. The numbers speak for themselves. I'm totally at a loss with this decision, in every way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allwaystired Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Just now, Lio said: Isn't it the promoters who book them though? I don't know much about the music business, but I would assume they have some business sense and have thought this through in some way. Well me too.....which puts me further at a loss! You look at how the band have been selling in the US - 4 runs now on the same tour through the US. First one stadiums- a lot of buzz, reunion etc. Second one stadiums - still a lot of demand, hitting new markets Third one - Arenas as demand is waning, things not selling out Fourth one - more Arenas as demand continues to wane, nothing sells out You look at that, there's a very clear trajectory on where they're going with this. I can't for the life of me figure why any promoter would look at that and say "yeah, next leg needs to be absolutely massive and in massive stadiums". It defies business sense....and you'd think Live Nation would know what they're doing here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shit play B-sides. Which to us is GOLDEN! I was trying to get tickets for Miami up until 7:00pm that night, and Stubhub and Ticketmaster had VERY few seats available in the lower level, all over $200. I'm assuming the promoters saved a lot of seats and they were never given out or resellers where not able to sell them for profit. I actually talked to a reseller at around 6:30pm and offered him $100 and said he would rather throw the ticket to the trash than to sell it at a loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknroll41 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) Didn’t Caram himself even say that there was no way they’d do a stadium tour in the US again until AFTER they do a new album? Whatever happened to that? EDIT: sorry, quoted the wrong post! Edited February 4, 2020 by rocknroll41 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
