One things for sure, people needn't worry or buy tickets in areas they don't want to be. And if they feel they can wait it out, there is a good chance they'll get a bargain. 75 bucks got you either in the pit, or the side of the stage. I sure miss that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I heard a very strong rumor that some of the opening acts are going to start being announced today at 3pm EST (about an hour from now) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxlRoseCDII Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) I’m going to sound like a cold hearted dick but I am certainly not rooting for this tour to succeed as is. You can’t just do stadium tour after stadium tour without any incentive. Not to mention GNR have been borderline false advertising with this next chapter bullshit. With the treatment of the fans by Fernando on reddit as well and Slash also bullshitting with “we don’t know how to release a new album” garbage, something needs to change with this band. I don’t believe all the lies should be financially supported. I think if sales are suffering they’ll realize that they may actually need to release new music to keep this machine going.

Nick85 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I'm sure tomorrow they'll announce that everyone gets a free apple at the gates. Anything but new music, this band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to be clear for everyone, I'm not playing the "insider" game. I have zero connection with GNR. I just have a friend who's a DJ on the biggest rock station in Detroit and he tells me stuff like this at times. He said not to post their name until after 3pm, so I'll post it then whether it's been announced or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting then that the US shows supports look like being announced before the other dates which come first...... That suggests to me there must be at least some acknowledgement somewhere that these dates need a push. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention openers usually are announced the day of the main announcement or some date much closer to the show. Between presale and general on sale is pretty odd. But it could be for other reasons for all we know.

I feel the same way. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
