Title: Strange order of shows Post by: Mikkamakka on March 21, 2006, 12:50:53 PM I think the order of the shows is kinda strange.
They start in Souther Europe: Portugal, one day later play in Spain - it's okay and logical. Then 3 days later they come to Hungary. (Central Europe) Then 2 days and they go back to Western Europe: Germany 2 days later play a show in Italy, Souther Europe They have 5 days to go to Ireland and then England - it's okay 2 days and they play in the Czech Republic (Central Europe) 2 days and they play Northern to CR: Poland 2 days and play quite Southern from CR: Austria (Austria neighbour to Hungary, where they played 17 days ago) 3 days later it's Western Europe again: France. The venue is closer to Spain or the UK than Austria The rest seems to be OK. They'll surely have 2 crowds, but the order of the shows seems to be quite illogical. Did they think about the location of the venues or just booked the shows? ???

Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: godiva on March 21, 2006, 12:54:28 PM Yes, I wondered about that too. Maybe it has something to do with the dates of the festivals (can't postphone those because of one band) or with other bands already being booked to play at a certain venue at a certain date.

Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: A Private Eye on March 21, 2006, 12:59:09 PM I see what your saying, but you can fly from 1 side of europe to the other in under 5 hours so it's not such a big deal for the locations to be all over the place. Perhaps the festival dates were the priority shows and they booked everywhere else afterwards and this was the only order that could suit both the band and the venues? Like I siad though it's not really like they'll suffer from jetlag flying across europe so they maybe don't mind too much.

Gets you places really fast. ?:yes: The musicians (and maybe the roads) will travel by airplanes. But the amps etc. should be there, too, and there is no way in hell that they'll be there by air travel.

All they gotta do is get a cargo plane like they did back during the Illusion tour.

By bird offcourse, but what kind of a plane? How does the equipment get pushed around, anyone? Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: DizzyReed63 on March 21, 2006, 01:37:14 PM For the '02 tour, I remember them saying they had 2 set-ups.
So the stuff was there already, and the other stuff was on its way to the show after the next. That makes sense here, too and would solve any weather/travel problems.

Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: mr self destruct on March 21, 2006, 01:43:16 PM Well, believe me or not there's actually hidden riddle in the order of the shows.
If you draw the band's travel route to a map you can see it: (http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e191/jiipee_luukkonen/europa.gif) Too bad the answer a bit too easy: TEDDY ZIGZAG IS BACK IN THE LINE-UP!!!!! :hihi: Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: boston on March 21, 2006, 01:43:25 PM Order and Location of shows matters none, because Axl won't show up anyways
by this theory they can book with reckless abandon, why not two shows in two countries on the same night? Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: Jonathan on March 21, 2006, 01:44:33 PM Order and Location of shows matters none, because Axl won't show up anyways by this theory they can book with reckless abandon, why not two shows in two countries on the same night? Would you stop being so damn negative? Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: boston on March 21, 2006, 01:45:20 PM Order and Location of shows matters none, because Axl won't show up anyways not easy, I am in a very negative mood todayby this theory they can book with reckless abandon, why not two shows in two countries on the same night? Would you stop being so damn negative? Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: Mikkamakka on March 21, 2006, 01:46:02 PM Too bad the answer a bit too easy: TEDDY ZIGZAG IS BACK IN THE LINE-UP!!!!! :hihi: Post of the month! :rofl: Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: LittleFly on March 21, 2006, 01:54:04 PM Cool, thanks for the map. I'm geographically challanged, and had no clue what the tour looked like :hihi:
;D Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: fesxine on March 21, 2006, 01:59:27 PM i think the tour route is based on a mathematical formula devised by Axl's secret pet monkey who has a degree in astro physics (and wrote most of CD).
Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: Markus Asraelius on March 21, 2006, 02:01:14 PM There could be more european dates so that map may not be complete.
In other words, that could be an unfinished symbol we're looking at. Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: Nytunz on March 21, 2006, 02:03:14 PM it is as simple as this. They have to play when the festivals is happening.
I dont think the festivals are in a "bandtravel friendly" order... Thats it.. Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: Mikkamakka on March 21, 2006, 02:03:29 PM There could be more european dates so that map may not be complete. In other words, that could be an unfinished symbol we're looking at. I think it cannot be tighter. Axl hasn't toured for years, he needs time to recover. Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: Nighteyes on March 21, 2006, 02:17:12 PM There could be more european dates so that map may not be complete. In other words, that could be an unfinished symbol we're looking at. Yeah,Yoda decided how to fly to make a symbol,so when it's done it will release enormous magical powers so Axl can rule the world. Ok,I do not have the best sense of humour :P Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: killingvector on March 21, 2006, 02:31:36 PM Order and Location of shows matters none, because Axl won't show up anyways by this theory they can book with reckless abandon, why not two shows in two countries on the same night? So basically you have nothing to contribute.... Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: Sparksry on March 21, 2006, 02:34:31 PM yes tat or maybe axl didnt even make the tour maybe a agent or music producer did it for hium he might not know where the hell he is going :hihi:

Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: killingvector on March 21, 2006, 02:45:18 PM I'm sure the release date is hidden that mess of weird symbols. Perhaps Hannibal Lector could decipher it: Clarice, doesn't this random scattering of sites seem desperately random - like the elaborations of a bad liar?
Title: Re: Strange order of shows Post by: Sparksry on March 21, 2006, 02:47:46 PM but ya as the other post said maybe the other dates arent scheduled yet it could be alot bigger later
