The festival is scheduled for September btw. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this will not be a disaster in Rio again, I hope it will look more like the one from 1991 with many new songs from the new album. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNRfanMILO Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) My only hope is that RiR is the last show of the tour leg, not the first one. Otherwise... Edited September 16, 2021 by GNRfanMILO 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamillos Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Too far away to predict anything now really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allwaystired Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Not one bit surprised. It would take a lot for them to lay off the continual touring. I know we had the enforced year off via Covid, but really, "how can we miss you if you'll never go away"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabioRoses Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) José Norberto is a reliable source, when he says it's going to happen, it's going to happen, unless a lot of shit happens. He also said that they're going on the 2nd week (8, 9, 10 and 11 September), so, it's hard to tell if it's going to be the start of an south american tour or not. I can tell you guys, i've been to more than 50 concerts here in São Paulo and it always happens September to October, no way it happens in August, i don't know why, maybe weather or something like that, but outdoors concerts never happened here in August. So Rock in Rio seems to be their first or one the first stops here in South American Tour 2022.

TheGeneral Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 RIR is cursed. Those pro-shots always have incredibly shitty sound-quality, doesn't matter what band it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allwaystired Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I think Beta mentioned they were going to be back in Brazil recently, so I'd say this is definitely happening. GNR and Rock In Rio do indeed have a chequered past! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknroll41 Posted September 16, 2021 Author Share Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) RIR 1991: great cause it was the start of UYI, bad cause of tech issues RIR 2001: great cause it was the (public) start of CD, bad because of Axl’s voice (lit was decent in hindsight though) RIR 2006: Axl’s voice was getting better again (still not as great as it would be later in that tour leg), but there were sound issues again RIR 2011: great cause we finally got estranged back, bad because LITERALLY EVERY FUCKIN OTHER ASPECT IMAGINABLE RIR 2017: A joke… let’s see what 2022 brings, I guess.

Like I said in another thread, this guy José Norberto is working now for some friends of mine, he has pretty good history of scoops about GNR playing in Brazil. He is as reliable as a possible in this subject. But this isn't exactly a wild prediction either. 1 hour ago, TheGeneral said: RIR is cursed.

It's valid for the 2006 Portugal edition too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
