Title: Why no multiple shows at MSG Post by: brock on November 09, 2006, 12:26:41 PM Seems they have no trouble selling this Venue out, they should have done 2 shows there, especially considering they have nothing sceduled on Saturday or Sunday after the show..
Kind of odd. Title: Re: Why no multiple shows at MSG Post by: Dickeye on November 09, 2006, 12:27:30 PM Even God's need to rest ;)

That's already big enough, ain't it? Title: Re: Why no multiple shows at MSG Post by: brock on November 09, 2006, 12:33:09 PM just saying, in Dec 91 they played 3 consecutive sell-outs here, they could easily do 2 in a row here.

Title: Re: Why no multiple shows at MSG Post by: tomass74 on November 09, 2006, 12:59:38 PM MSG has not sold out yet... You can still get 8 tix together on TM..... Don't listen to everything Bach and Guns tell you... I am sure it will sell out or be close by show time..... But if they did two shows there would be problems..
Title: Re: Why no multiple shows at MSG Post by: nesquik on November 09, 2006, 01:17:04 PM Guys, it's not 1991 anymore. I don't know how old you are, maybe you were too young to remember, but GN'R was REALLY huge back in the days. It's not the same today.
Title: Re: Why no multiple shows at MSG Post by: BKinNYC on November 09, 2006, 01:22:13 PM Well, on Saturday there's a huge fight at the Garden (heavyweight title), so it would have to be on Sunday. Like someone else said, I just don't think the demand is there for two shows.

It's not the same today. sorry i missed that but like nesqick said thats ancient history now...fuck that is longer ago than some current fans have been alive :hihi: Title: Re: Why no multiple shows at MSG Post by: The Legend on November 09, 2006, 04:13:43 PM Seems they have no trouble selling this Venue out, they should have done 2 shows there, especially considering they have nothing sceduled on Saturday or Sunday after the show.. Kind of odd. First off, correct me if i'm wrong, but I think MSG is booked on other subsequent dates. Second, yes they did sell out MSG, but it didn't happen nearly as fast this time as it did in 2002. In 2002, it sold out in 15 minutes, whereas this year it took a bit longer. I highly doubt they could've sold out 2 back to back shows this year. MSG has not sold out yet... You can still get 8 tix together on TM..... Don't listen to everything Bach and Guns tell you... I am sure it will sell out or be close by show time..... But if they did two shows there would be problems.. Technically under music standards and ticket sale standards, it has sold out. Even in 2002, a few tix were held back until the day and day before the show. But it was never anymore than a few tickets. Venues do this to try and fight scalpers. Title: Re: Why no multiple shows at MSG Post by: veritas55 on November 09, 2006, 04:15:54 PM It's also a VERY expensive arena to book -- as a result, lots more money can be had by booking nearby other venues. (I think the number of music concerts at MSG has been declining over the years for this reason).
Title: Re: Why no multiple shows at MSG Post by: Bandita on November 09, 2006, 04:16:20 PM MSG is booked on all dates surrounding this show. ?As well as Nassau.
Title: Re: Why no multiple shows at MSG Post by: The Legend on November 09, 2006, 04:37:17 PM MSG is booked on all dates surrounding this show. ?As well as Nassau. Yeah, that usually is the biggest thing to prevent more bookings, lol. : ok: Title: Re: Why no multiple shows at MSG Post by: Disco Volante on November 09, 2006, 06:34:17 PM Maybe Uncle Axl will enjoy the nightlife NYC has to offer after the show. He may be out of commission with a nasty hangover the next day. Does he have his pad in NYC yet? After hours at Axl house everyone! :smoking:
