VELVET REVOLVER Cancel Rooftop Concert After Failing To Secure City Permit - Oct. 11, 2004?
 
VELVET REVOLVER have cancelled their planned rooftop show on the West Hollywood Sunset Strip on Tuesday, October 12 after they were unable to secure a city permit required to play the gig, BLABBERMOUTH.NET has learned. The band are currently looking at several alternatives, including moving the show to a different date (possibly Wednesday) and another location that does not require a permit. More information will be made available soon.?

That sucks...I hope it still works out, its a great idea.

So I guess VR lied to their fans about playing this show. That is too bad.

[Mattgnr]

Don't see any lies dave, only a sad wanker with too much time and anger

Don't see any lies dave, only a sad wanker with too much time and anger?

I couldn't have said it better 

[Jizzo]

Yeah, and when they reschedule it for tommarow, ill be just as happy

Is that Dave " Mark Chapman"  GNFNR2k piping up again?

Yeah but when gnr cancels a concert axl is lying but when Vr does it its not.
Just making a point and you all proved it, thanks.

Sounds like the band is trying to make up the date for the fans, and they even gave us a reason why its not happening. There are still 15,000 people in Philly waiting for a show and a reason why it was cancelled. Your comparing Apples to Oranges in this situation. I would much rather have VR's version of lying to the fans over Axl's if it means still getting to see the show and informing you of why you aren't seeing it on the original date. But that just me and who likes a liar anyway.

Axl gave a reason for BC and people gave him shit for it, what do you expect? Please CC NEVER gave a reason for the cancellation either, so what does that tell you? GAG ORDER, that is what. You really think if it was 100% axls fault CC woudl not have come out and say it right way?

Anyways not to get off topic but, this was actually a good idea by VR but too bad it was ripping off the  beatles.

The coolest guy in the world strikes again!!!

You just make yourself look like an idiot. First of all no one calls Axl a liar for canceling his shows. People call him an asshole for not showing up.  Your sensless crying about people not being fair to Axl is so old. There is a big fucking difference in canceling a FREE show that they could not get a permit for and are trying to reschedule, than being a no show more than once to a shows that people paid for and causing riots. Then not even having the least bit of respect to offer an explanation.  The only person that finds a problem with it is you. People may be disappointed but no one is pissed off. There weren't riot sin the streets of LA over it.

why is this a good idea? It's so played out. Rock n Roll cliche.

The only person looking like an idiot is you with your person attacks, you want to call me names, take it to PMs please, the board doesnt want to read your trolling against board members thank you very much

. And sorry to tell you but axl is not the one causing riots, its the idiot fans that think its cool to riot. Its like saying, Oh its some sports team fault for winning a world championship because their fans rioted after the game.  I have been to a few shows that got cancelled hours before the show and no one rioted. 

Like i have said before the first show axl cancelled he gave a legit reason yet people still bashed him.  At the philly show a reason was given that a band member was sick, yet that was not good enough? And like I said CC never gave an offical reason either, so what does that tell you?

I always thought this quote refers to another band... Hey Dave, I get used to like your posts, I find it's kinda funny how you think, although I'm sure that you are joking all the time just to test people.

PS: Don't forget to call Slash a liar for the Bumblefoot thing, too! 

[Jizzo]

Well hopefully the rumor that a gig will be announced for tommarow night are true, cause im really amped up for tommarow!!!!

[Booker Floyd]

Yeah, really...who wants to see a free concert?  What a horrible idea.  Itd be way cooler to pay over $50 to watch them from the back of an arena.
