Title: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: Lucky on December 11, 2006, 07:40:05 AM ok, there has been a rumour circulating on croatian news sites, and forums about GNR playing here in summer 2007.
it appears some promoter is interested in organising the show, but from what I hear, the management hasnt been contacted at all (just yet). I hope its true, the arena would probably be an unique experience for the band and the fans...

Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: Fortus on December 11, 2006, 08:04:17 AM Isnt that the coleseum in Rome? No its a roman amphitheater in Pula Croatia.Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: peka80 on December 11, 2006, 08:23:57 AM I think it's time for G'n'R to visit Balkan again!? : ok:
And next year is perfect for it! And if they visit Croatia, I'm pretty sure they'll be visiting Serbia!!! At least at EXIT 07 Festival !? : ok: Hope to see all of you next summer!? :beer: Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: [mango] on December 11, 2006, 08:24:13 AM Merck denied that any show has been confirmed so far (about supposed EURO 2007 tour)....
Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: wells on December 11, 2006, 08:50:18 AM yes Arena would be a cool place... but it needs to be done like a regional thing where people from this region would come. otherwise it is a failed project. even better idea is for Guns to play in Sarajevo in August. there is huge film festival over there and Sarajevo is in the middle of the region.
Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: IndiannaRose on December 11, 2006, 09:11:44 AM That would be an awesome place to shoot a DVD.

Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: [mango] on December 11, 2006, 10:00:56 AM The only website publishing that was VIP.net as far as i know.... About promoters, do you have any concrete infos maybe? I'm sure i would come if it was to happen.....

I don't think 'sarajebo' and WTTJ comment is at place, time to move on from the past (both political & GNR). Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: Lucky on December 11, 2006, 10:15:47 AM sarajevo would be a definite mistake.

I don't think 'sarajebo' and WTTJ comment is at place, time to move on from the past (both political & GNR). nothing political about it. (but I see why it could be interpreted that way) sarajevo is the least appealing possible choice. belgrade is a far better location than Sarajevo (if not pula). Just ask anyone where they'd rather go? Belgrade, Zagreb or Sarajevo. even the people who live in Sarajevo would rather be somewhere else. the thing that makes pula ahead of any posible choice is this logic... where would you rather be listening to gnr in the summer of 2007... in the middle of the hills in bosnia (during a geeky film festival), or at the mediteranian coast watching blonds at the beach?

If it is good enough for U2, it is good enough for GNR. Anyway lets let this rumour rest for now. :peace: Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: kaasupoltin on December 11, 2006, 11:12:34 AM That amphitheatre looks awesome. But we all know these rumours are just rumours. But it would be cool to see Gn'R playing in countries like Croatia.. they should do Israel again too.

Hey dude, that place is magical!!! It would be a very beautiful moment to see GNR play in such a beautiful place. :)it appears some promoter is interested in organising the show, but from what I hear, the management hasnt been contacted at all (just yet). I hope its true, the arena would probably be an unique experience for the band and the fans... (http://www.geografija.hr/slike/Pula-arena.jpg) (http://www.cavazzi.com/roman-empire/tours/empire/pics/pula/arena-pula1.jpg) Don?t get your hopes down even if you know it?s only a rumour. I live in a small insignificant town in the south of Spain and the miracle happened! ;D They played there in July 06.So, cross fingers and don?t lose your hope : ok: Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: Emilie on December 11, 2006, 05:04:12 PM I'm gonna visit Croatia next summer for 3 weeks, so I hope this is true ;D As long as I'm not missing a possible show in Sweden at the same time..
Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: A Private Eye on December 11, 2006, 05:04:43 PM It certainly would be an awesome venue for GNR to play at, and a great location for a live DVD. It's somewhat spoiled by the big McDonalds sign outside though don't ya think? ?:hihi:
Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: gandra on December 11, 2006, 05:45:11 PM in ex yugoslavia,there is only one real place and only one realy big city for that kind ofshow

Title: Re: Croatia, Summer 2007 Post by: grog mug on December 11, 2006, 09:22:06 PM That place is great, playing in a place that has over 2,000 years of history. Hope it doesn't go to Axl's head with the 2,000 years thing in regards to Chinese Democracy. I just wrote an exam paper about The Colleseum in Rome if thats what it is...great place.
