dtjmf13 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 was thinkin, if GNR were to tour next year its my opinion that alot of ppl wont be able to handle or put up with a 11.30 concert start unless it was on a weekend. australia isnt america and i think aussie's may have less tolerance for that. but also id think the promotors and ppl running the arena's would push for an earlier start which Axl should be able to handle if he's a professional.

6lake sa66ath Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) It's the reason I could never see a band fronted by Axl Rose ever doing a big touring show like the Big Day Out, which runs on a time table.In terms of an Aussie tour next year it was all but confirmed by Sebastian Bach a few months ago when he dropped in down here for some shows.For a concert event like Guns N' Roses, the "rostered day off" was invented soley for this reason!

wow Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 After Baz made that announcement, i asked Dizzy AND Bumblefoot on their myspaces if they knew anything about it. They both replied with something like "No plans soon, but i'd sure like to" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exercise it!Don't worry mate, If it's a festival then they stick to their scheduled come on time. I saw them at Download festival in Ireland and they hit the stage bang on eight o clock, it's only if it is their own gigs that they tend to leave it till later because they have their free reign.

Tube train stations here in England start closing around midnight.Therefore, for me.......Hammersmith show - finished around 1.00am, had to walk halfway cross London as no tube trains, all taxis taken, all nightbuses full. Managed to spend rest of night in all-night cafe then get first train home in morning. Luckily I wasn't working the next day but my friend wasWembley - both nights finished after the last tube and because of my Hammersmith experience, I booked a hotel both nights in Covent Garden in London but still had to pay £25.00 taxi fares each night to get there.Thanks a bunch Axl!But what can you do?. Driving into London is a joke and the hotels near Wembley were more expensiveMaybe he should consider each country's public transport restrictions before strolling onstage at 10.30-11.00pm.
