If it was the normal trajectory of gig sales they absolutely wouldn't be doing that. They know what they're doing a lot more than we do.

Nicklord Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Checked those $25 tickets for LA on the Livenation website. There are a lot of big names, both new and old like Janet Jackson, Vampire Weekend, The Kid Laroi, Blink 182, Missy Elliott, JLo, St. Vincent, Kings of Leon, Santana, Creed, Jelly Roll, Slipknot, Kygo... Seems like they put those for any shows that weren't instant sellouts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tourettes2400 Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 I have a friend who has been making fun of me for buying front row seats for around $400 and now these tickets are on sale for $25. Clearly not the same type of seat, but it is kind of embarrassing, 😆. I tried to tell him I was getting a signed record and early entry, and that just made it worse, 😆. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfacelessturtle Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 10 hours ago, Tom-Ass said: Live Nation is doing a promotion this week with the $25 tickets. They are doing this for the cheap GA seats for tons of shows and a lot of big name artists. They aren't discounting tickets due to sales for a tour that hasn't started yet and album that hasn't come out yet. That said, it isn't selling great yet but that doesn't mean it won't. I am sure sales will pick up once the album comes out and they start promoting the tour more. He may not be selling venues out, but I am sure the turnouts will be decent come show time. Can't f'n wait!! Personally, I'm holding out because $77 is too much IMO. I'd pay that for a bigger act like GNR or AC/DC but I'm hoping I can hold out and get something more like $50 closer to showtime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmus1 Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 (edited) Every ad I’ve seen for the tour looks more like a music festival than a Slash show, and also minimizes Slash’s name in favor of the S.E.R.P.E.N.T. branding. That can’t be doing them any favors. edit: And I know Slash is branding this as a festival, but a single stage festival with 4-5 bands is just a show with a lot of openers in reality. But I think the festival image of it all is making people less interested. I know a lot of people who all write festivals off as bad sound, short sets, too crowded, or all three lol Edited May 14 by bmus1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmus1 Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Not a fan of this one. Not for any real reason other than there's so many versions of this song out there. Also that first solo is note-y af, but I love the second one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
