Stop posting thread titles all in caps, its annoying as hell. B. Stop making crap up about Keanu Reeves interviewing Axl on MuchMusic. Even MuchMusic says you're freaking insane. C. Learn to speak proper english enough to convey your message clearly. What the hell is "scale things out a bit"? -darknemus Title: Re: COULD GNR EVEN SELL OUT A STADIUM IN THE USA ANYMORE Post by: nesquick on March 07, 2006, 01:08:56 PM with SLASH, GNR would sell out all the stadiums in the world, but without him, I doubt it.

Can waxlrose1987 get banned? Title: Re: COULD GNR EVEN SELL OUT A STADIUM IN THE USA ANYMORE Post by: littlewing on March 07, 2006, 01:14:36 PM Right now? No. If they put the album out and get some singles on the radio/mtv then sure.

Whoa. Not many bands can. I'd probably say "no" with the current line-up.
AFD - era Guns..? Definately. Title: Re: COULD GNR EVEN SELL OUT A STADIUM IN THE USA ANYMORE Post by: WARose on March 07, 2006, 01:27:55 PM this is your fourth bullshit thread written in capitals in two days......

I'd probably say "no" with the current line-up. AFD - era Guns..? Definately. i agree, the only chance Axl would have to sell out a stadium would be if he had a new album to promote with a kick-ass single. Title: Re: COULD GNR EVEN SELL OUT A STADIUM IN THE USA ANYMORE Post by: oldgunsfan on March 07, 2006, 01:32:20 PM not in the US w/ this band; even if he had a #1 single
the only market he would come close is the NY/NJ market; he may come close to selling out Giants Stadium; anywhere else in the US, not a snowball's chance in hell Title: Re: COULD GNR EVEN SELL OUT A STADIUM IN THE USA ANYMORE Post by: killingvector on March 07, 2006, 01:33:24 PM I hate to say it, but I miss Queenie. :-X

BULLSHIT.....i will believ it when i see it or more likely hear it....we have been hearing rumors of a new album since 1996.....i dont care how many shows they play this summer it dont mean anything when talking about the album...everyone in 2002 thought the new album was coming out cuz of the tour----guess what--4 YEARS LATER--NO ALBUM Title: Re: COULD GNR EVEN SELL OUT A STADIUM IN THE USA ANYMORE Post by: Eric on March 07, 2006, 01:47:25 PM There are only a ahndful of groups that could sell out a stadium-at this point if they drew 1,000 people I could care less-still love Axl.

WHy just the other day you were saying that Axl told Keanu that not only was the album coming out soon, but that there were two more on their way within 6 months after that. Surely if you saw Axl speaking to Keanu about this you'd have good reason to believe him, since we already know Axl really doesn't usually speak unless he has something to say.. especially to Keanu. :hihi: :hihi: -darknemus Title: Re: COULD GNR EVEN SELL OUT A STADIUM IN THE USA ANYMORE Post by: neon2002 on March 07, 2006, 01:55:22 PM remember on the 02 tour they were NOT selling out the majority of the shows....their were a lot of empty seats in thebig places they were playing..Might be time for AXL to scale things out a bit They sold out Madison Square Garden in a few minutes for the 2002 tour.

Quote And as the story goes, this was an amazing concert... Title: Re: COULD GNR EVEN SELL OUT A STADIUM IN THE USA ANYMORE Post by: pilferk on March 07, 2006, 02:05:52 PM Today? No way.? Not alone.
After CD is released, depending on how well it does, with a good support act?? Yeah, they might. The thing is, the only rock acts who are actually working today that I can think of that CAN consistently sell out stadiums, in the states, are the Stones, and U2.? Metallica if they have Godsmack or someone of that caliber (popularity wise) opening, maybe.? Springsteen, if you label him a rock act.? Maybe a few others, at most. I mean...VR has 3/5ths of GnR and the lead singer of STP. Audioslave has most of RATM and Cornell. You think either of them could sell out a stadium? I'm not sure they could do it TOGETHER.

You would basically be paying lots of money to see Axl. There aren't any other big names in this band anymore. Not to say I wouldn't go to one of the concerts though...
Title: Re: COULD GNR EVEN SELL OUT A STADIUM IN THE USA ANYMORE Post by: Communist China on March 13, 2006, 09:04:08 PM Stadium's are very tough. I think they could sell out almost any arena, but outdoor concerts in the US, with what happened in 02, is a long shot.
Title: Re: COULD GNR EVEN SELL OUT A STADIUM IN THE USA ANYMORE Post by: da_pope on March 18, 2006, 03:06:00 PM Nope.
The only rock act to sell out a stadium (recently) that I know of is Green Day when they Sold out Donnington. The Stones might be able to do it but I wouldn't garuntee it as there's very little mainstream support for them, when was the last time you heard a Stones song on VH1 or MTV? Exactly. Hell, unless they released another Sweet Child O' Mine caliber song I bet the original Guns couldn't sell out a stadium. Remember, Areans = Around 20,000 while some Stadiums can fit 70,000. Thats alot of people. |
