Why couldn't they show footage of the new band?

Would it scare people off?

They have enough material to do a high quality advert showing the whole new band. I thought people were over the "new-GNR-is-Axl" thing.

I dont think it will ever be over no matter what happens with Axl and the guys there's always going to be people and critics comparing things to the old days.

Is this because ticket sales have slowed down? ???

Most shows are pretty much sold out anyway, aren't they?

^ Dunno. :-\

Muse have added a third show at Wembley to their tour this autumn after the first two shows sold out in under an hour.

Tickets for both Wembley shows are still available at the moment. :-\

Just had a look  at ticketmaster- only seated tickets left for either wembley show, and who wants those anyway? They're from the batch recently released. The shows were listed as sold out previously.

I remember back in 92 there was adverts for the Slane Castle gig. They were shown on the local Northern Ireland station UTV, but I don't know about the rest of the UK.
