European shows

[DazRose85]

Well it's a little while yet before the concerts... no panic.

[Fransman_nl]

I think they should do a solo show in belgium. How about " sportpaleis" ??

I think the same, only replace belgium with holland ?

[Mandy.]

i really thought there would have been more UK shows.maybe a london show and probebly a scotland show.id rather pay 50 quid each for 2 more UK shows than spend 115 quid for download festival.

Exactly what I think... Fuckin annoying this whole idea of Download Festival..

[ARC]

AND A COUPLE MORE UK SHOWS!!!!!!!?

word.

[Sillything]

I do too wonder about the sales figures in the countrys outside of scandinavia. What's up with Poland, Hungary and so  forth? Some dates are not availible for purchase just yet so I'll guess we'll have to wait and see. Otherwise scandinavians are just more in to hard rock Ironmaiden for example are extremley hughe over here. Last summer they sold out an 60 000 capacity stadium in Sweden in a matter of minutes, while Eminem/50 cent had to cancel the same stadium due to poor ticket sales

this is the time GNR has been waiting for.. GNR music are retro thease days. Alot of people dig back theyr GNR cd`s or buy new once.. They get alt of TV and Radio space.. I think this is what Axl and the band has been waiting for.. The Interest to come back. And now its here..
They were booking festivals in the beginning, just to se it this was the right time (guess they dident know how big they should make the tour) Then they saw the succsess, and sould out arenas in minuttes.. They found out this was the time to move on with things.. And the tour grows bigger.. And so does the hope on seeing CD out very soon.

my guessing...

Good point. If these shows were testing the waters, we may see some new tunes real soon.

[gally]

its hard to believe that there has been no official announcemtn and these shows are selling.

[the dirt]

This is scary logic. Can't the same be said of the 02 tour to a certain extent?

What if Axl et al are doing these shows for a quick payoff?

[1badapple]

yeah, what if these shows are just to get more money to further fund the chinese democracy project (since the label quit funding it in 2004). i hope not, for Axl's sake. I really think if he doesn't deliver this time he'll just be looked at as a joke, a big joke.

I doubt he'll be looked at as a joke, but I do think people will lose interest extremely fast... All this hype building up... If he doesn't deliver the bubble will burst and I don't think it'll ever get as much interest after that...

sure he will....he just wait another 4 years and try again

[Skeba]

These both are 'bout them European shows an I think they'll do just fine together..

[bigcash2002]

I am always amazed to see GNR booking dates, yet never seem to promote the shows.  I wonder why they never do full scale promotion?

[ARC]

They don't really need it. Especially in Europe. These shows are going to be full without promotion. Plus, there's the mythology of "Chinese Democracy" thats almost like promotion in itself.

[the dirt]

Because no one really knows what's going on.

[Skeba]

No one really knows what's going on in the form of what??

Slash not being in the band?

I believe people are well informed at least here.... (that's in Finland)
The media's been pretty persistant on the fact in all their reports.. So at least here people are pretty aware.. Or am I wrong?? B(lue)C(ut), Aava??

[the dirt]

People in and around the band don't.

[ARC]

People in and around the band don't.

I guess you have been hanging with the individual members of the band recently and that's how you know this...

Right...?

[the dirt]

I could ask you the same thing. But with the evidence i can bring to the table will prove me "the stronger".
