Title: FAKE: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: Bodhi on October 05, 2006, 11:24:40 PM I read on Rollingstone.com under the posts for the GNR story that some guy said he heard on the local Philly radio station Free Fm that GNR will be playing the Wacovia center on the night of the album release..and that tickets are only 20 bucks....I havent the slightest idea if this is true, I am hoping that someone on this board can shed some light on this....I dont like to start rumors, I only ask this because it sounds like it might be possible...anyone??

Post by: Robman? on October 05, 2006, 11:26:42 PM it would make sense for a philly date to happen on the 14th of Nov. before they go to canada (3 shows i a row could be a problem), or on the 7th of Nov is off, they play on the 6th, ?21st is off, they play on the 20th. 28th off, they play on the 27th
rumor is fake, it cant come out on a tues then, unless they jump from one coast to another and back for a Dec. 18 release They can't possibly play on the eve of release, or on the night of release unless they play back to back concerts Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: GunsN'Gravy on October 06, 2006, 12:07:30 AM If they go to Philly and play for cheap, I'm going to shoot Axl in the nuts. He fucked over Vancouver first and it's confirmed that He isn't going to give us people a fucking thing.

Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: Bodhi on October 06, 2006, 12:14:18 AM Axl didnt fuck over Vancouver...The people running the venue fucked over Vancouver...the venue canceled the show when Axl was on his way there...not Axl's fault at all....although it would be cool if Axl did something for them anyway....

Post by: GunsN'Gravy on October 06, 2006, 12:18:30 AM I know this has been beaten to death, but Axl should have been at the concert, not on his way. He was getting paid to be there and when He was busy putting braids in his hair or whatever the fuck he was doing, He breached his contract whether written or verbal to be at HIS show. He fucked us and the venue. Please stop defending his idiotic maneuver.

Post by: GunsN'Gravy on October 06, 2006, 12:29:32 AM What chaps my ass is I live way up by the north west territories so it's not like coming to Vancouver and playing for 20 bucks would do a damn thing for people like me, but I would feel even more shat upon if He did something for Philly and not for Vancouver.
Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: jthunders13 on October 06, 2006, 12:49:07 AM looks fake, but it would be a great plan...just charge enough to break even on the show...
tigers rock...yankees suck Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: BurningHills on October 06, 2006, 12:55:05 AM Just called WYSP (Free FM) and they know nothing about it.

Post by: GunsN'Gravy on October 06, 2006, 01:04:09 AM What does that have to do with anything? Are you trying to start some fight with me? God, I hate the people who think that they should have an opinion on something, just because they CAN have one.
Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: Eclipsed107 on October 06, 2006, 01:19:54 AM as cool as this would be I highly doubt it.
See ya in NJ tho. Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: kaasupoltin on October 06, 2006, 01:23:01 AM It would be cool thing to do, but I doubt it. Axl could throw some copies of CD to the crowd :rofl:
Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: Eclipsed107 on October 06, 2006, 01:24:46 AM Of course people would get their eyes poked out then and sue the band. :hihi:
Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: Bodhi on October 06, 2006, 01:29:51 AM supposedly they are making an announcement tomorrow, once again i have no idea if this is true or not, im just letting you guys know what I heard....
Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: BLS-Pride on October 06, 2006, 01:33:29 AM IF true.. I'm goin' to philly.
Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: BurningHills on October 06, 2006, 01:43:36 AM Just called WYSP (Free FM) and they know nothing about it. BULLSHIT. Lock this, please. I can see if this was buried under 20 pages of shit, but damn ya'all, I posted it a few minutes earlier! :peace: Still love you guys - just wish you'd pay attention! :beer: WYSP (Free FM) HAS NO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS WHATSOEVER.

Post by: TheRaven on October 06, 2006, 01:48:03 AM supposedly they are making an announcement tomorrow, once again i have no idea if this is true or not, im just letting you guys know what I heard.... If they make an announcement tomorrow, that means the announcement would also be about the CD release (since they're one in the same). That'd make sense I guess, considering there's only 2 weeks until the first show and tomorrow will be a week precisely since the last press release. Cross your fingers I guess...Raven Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks?

The dude even checked their liner notes...nothing. No memo, no mention of anything GN'R releated whatsoever. Its not happening - let's move on. AGAIN: WYSP (Free FM) HAS NO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS WHATSOEVER. : ok: Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks?

You could put it in font size 40 in red letters, and someone would still ignore it. Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: BurningHills on October 06, 2006, 01:55:06 AM Let's try it then:
WYSP (Free FM) KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT THIS. GN'R IS NOT PLAYING PHILLY! :peace: :hihi: Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: GunsN'Gravy on October 06, 2006, 01:57:15 AM Maybe people don't believe some guy on some website, I believe you but I can't give you a good reason why I believe you.
Title: Re: GNR playing philly on the night of the release for 20 bucks? Post by: BurningHills on October 06, 2006, 02:01:11 AM The guy at Free FM was fairly helpful - he made sure people heard it on their station, went through his liner sheets (notes that DJs have as to what to plug/give away, etc.) - said that if this was happening, they'd be plugging the hell out of it already.
I guess there's still a slim chance this could happen, but I wouldn't put too much stock into it. |
