April 13th, 2010 Guatemala City, Guatemala @ Estadio del Ejército - CANCELLED

[chineseblues]

Whenever you buy tickets for any kind of show, there is always a chance that it may be cancelled. Just like when you see a Broadway play, some nights your fav actor will be substituted with the understudy. Or there is a flood and the theater has to close for the night, or a power outage, etc,etc

I can understand that they cancel something for a good reason, but we were ignored, only said that to do another show and our gig was canceled for "that" reason.

do you think this situation is just or at least reasonable???

Obviously it's not "fair" but really what do you want done about it? I don't think the band canceled the Guatemala show just to piss off the fans, and in fact it probably wasn't the bands idea in the first place.

+1. And let's not forget, these shows were not within close proximity of each other. My heart goes out to the fans in Guatemala and Costa Rica. I am sorry that you guys missed out on seeing GNR in concert. I hope you get a formal announcement as to what went down.

I agree with you, but unfortunately those reports from gnr by facebook just worried about Costa Rica, I do not think axl want screw us, I really dont think so, but we need to know why this desition was taken.

why not re schedule our show???

Maybe they can't re-schedule because of other commitments or maybe there is a problem with the promoter? Who knows but one thing is for sure, the band would be there if they could.
