Also I hear that New Zealand actually already has concerts back. I'm sure the Covid situation is easier to manage down under. Especially in a year, so these really could be the first shows back.

I'm also kinda looking for an excuse to go there. Since I bailed the last time. I definitely want to go there when there are concerts. Just don't know yet which one. Either GNR, U2 or Janet Jackson. Something will finally bring me down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, there’s a lot of wildlife that’s dangerous. But you just don’t come across it often unless you’re not being mindful of your surroundings. I always go on a few nature-centric trips every time I go to Australia, and I’ve never come across any dangerous wildlife. As for the crowds, they’re actually surprisingly tame. The first gig I went to in Australia was Ghost in a small club in Brisbane, that was intense. I ended up with two cracked ribs it was so rowdy. But it wasn’t passionate, it was just violent. The rest of the gigs I’ve been to in Australia have been super tame. A few days after cracking my ribs I waltzed right up to the second row for Slayer, even with cracked ribs I was totally fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can pretty much always pick up cheaper tickets for big shows, and these fit the bill (large venues, second run through the area, ticket sales not great in other countries etc etc). Just my speculation of course - could be wrong, but I'd be amazed if there weren't offers nearer the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different story, if you want a specific seat/section. And they won't face the problem that nobody wants to buy a ticket again, as it is only the second time they swing through after almost 5 years.

It depends where in Australia you are. If your in a city theres hardly anything. Obviously out near the bush areas theres snakes, spiders animals. No different to other countries having those things in the wild. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwiguns Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 (edited) Thank god the boarders are closed in New Zealand, and we dont have to deal with the bitching in person while attending the shows. Even if the boarders were open half of you bitching would not travel to see the band outside of your own shores. Plenty of Australians and New Zealanders have travelled far a field to see this band play.. Maybe because we don't expect them to return to this part of the world again so we are making the most of it.. The band will sell out the venues and people attending the shows will rook out and enjoy themselves. I am looking forward to November 2021.

Keep the riff -raff out so those appreciative Aussies can enjoy a show. Out of interest.....why do you think people would travel to see a show they weren't interested in, if the borders were open?! 10 minutes ago, PatrickS77 said: Once again, if you don't give a damn where you end up.

Yeah, I think I heard something about a broad scientific consensus that we have only a few years to make major changes and make huge cuts in carbon emissions before we hit the point of catastrophic and irreversible damage to our environment. Oh well, everyone wear your masks on the plane-ride to Australia. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Live Like a Suicide Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I was hoping they would have a new album to promote this tour, but people will be chomping at the bit for live shows and they can sell just off that alone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's such an odd thing to say.....and the "new look, new design but with all their classic hits" line just highlights than it really has no intention of being very different at all.

Tom2112 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 3 hours ago, MildlyArtistic said: Very intrigued by the AFD5 logo usage, even if I think it's meaningless It's just an image. The band you saw in January will be the band playing in 2021, don't even get as far as being intrigued. Also, the time for AFD5 has truly passed, if the NITL tour taught us one thing, it's that some things are better left as dreams rather than realities! If GNR don't have a record by 2021 then there is 100% no chance that they'll ever release a record. I know people are starved for live music, but supporting this shit show? I don't get it! If they put out new music going to see the show is worthwhile OR if you have never seen them before it's also worth it! If you have seen them multiple times like me, I can't see any reason to want to go again until things change... and the corona concert pause hasn't changed my mind one bit about that.

They dont want to imply there will be any new music at all for these concerts Didnt the band advertise something along these lines with one of the nuguns tours, and i was just the same setlist except a different light show?

Homefuck Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 3 hours ago, ZoSoRose said: 1. I think a year from now might actually be very possible for even stadium gigs. I say that as a realist. Vaccines will most likely start in small, emergency qualities next month. I know a zillion people need it, but I have no doubt we will see worldwide WW2-like effort to make and distribute it. Fingers crossed! 2. Yup. And the poster looks worse than many local bands' promo in the Michigan bar scene Thank you for being an optimistic realist. I'm (like the rest of the world) so sick of this fucking pandemic, the only thing making me even getting up in the morning anymore is the thought of that this will soon be over. (I couldn't care less about more shows. Record a fucking tune, mix and master it, release it. Done) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTJ80 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 That’s a horrid poster. Even I’m surprised they are using the AFD5 cross so pointedly. And just to moan a bit more - I hate that new version of the AFD cross....it looks pish. 😤 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
