How's VR attendance

[Adler_Sorum_Brain]

The VR boys has been getting too mutch air now..A supergroup wich had their peak in 04-05..Ye,ye, jippiii..Why go out on a fucking 12000 cap arena tour when they got nothing ? I?m not surprised that 2007 has been a bad year for them.

[darkdays_01]

Any true rock band these days, are doing good to bring in 5,000 let alone 12,000. I dont know what Axl's band did but if they drew anything around 9,000+  that is great especially for a rock band. The music industry is fucked.

It would not bother me at all though to see a band like VR or even GnR do small theaters if they had to, the vibe is so cool at a theater gig compared to an arena.

This fucking VR section should die The band is going to anyway.

[Jim Bob]

how is attendence?  well there are still tickets available for a show about 2 weeks away here in Las Vegas.   And shows here almost always sell out.

as things now stand I could say the same about the Guns n' Roses section...

Well if it ain't the usual suspects....

Well if it ain't the usual suspects....

yea, Rocker_GNR is always one of the first

[oldgunsfan]

I saw them at Jones Beach which i guess holds about 15000 and it was about 80% full

Personally, i like them better in 1500-200 seat clubs.....
they just seem more into when they play smaller venues vs ampi-theatre/arenas

Of course, when GnR played the Hammerstein, they seemed alot more into it there than at MSG 6 months later as well

[Grouse]

^^totally agree, I wish all bands no matter how big they are would play these smaller venues. I really hate those big arena/festival shows...

[chinese democrazy]

Well if it ain't the usual suspects....

Lol, I was thinking the same thing

[RageNirvanaNIN]

Suddenly 7000 isn't too bad......

Funny how different it sounded in 2006. "They're not selling out arenas".

They refers to another band who did sell out multiple dates on their last North American tour.

Bitch and whine at us and look who is the first to bring up another band , it just comes to show the maturity here...

Yeah nice example of the pot calling the kettle black isn't it...

[darth monkey]

I've never said anything about album sales, I like the music and that's it. What is truly strange is how many people come to post here that worship GNR (and hence think they must hate VR to be true GNR fans) and trash VR. I hate Britney Spears, do I waste my time and go post shit about her on board that are related to her. NO!!! I guess the difference is I have a life. That's also why I keep my time posting on here to a minimum, cause it's really hard to have a discussion with some people here who have no concept over how to debate things. You come up with a logical argument and get a response like "yah, well VR suck, the album suck and they shouldn't play songs they've helped write". And you get the same bone-headed response no matter what you write

They did a lot better than some of you wanted them to or want to give them credit for.

That's why you get some pissed off by me mentioning GN'R. They outsold VR. It makes VR look bad.

None of you would be annoyed if it was the other way around.

What do you think of VR's ticket sales on this tour?

Was it what you expected?

Are you excited that they're playing for arenas that are 1/4 - 1/2 full?

Do you think they're an arena rock band like Foo Fighters, GN'R, Pearl Jam and others?

Why do you think nobody seems to give a fuck about their shows?

Did you attend any show(s)? If you didn't, why not?

Do you think the VIP package mess hurt ticket sales?

oh please... how easily you guys forget this is a GN'R board, not a VR board, so naturally not everyone is going to get all ga ga over VR.   however you'd think everyone here is a fan of GN'R.  Not the case.

Honestly I don't have to explain the meaning of the pot calling the kettle black do I?, My post doesn't have anything to do with the whole discussing vr on a gnr site debate...

GNR has had distinctive eras with different line ups with fans of each gravitating to the section of the forum that holds their interest.

Until this site becomes soley devoted to GNR in its current form with no outlet for fans of other eras and former members that will probably remain the case.

I think it's great all the bickering back and forth.  The fact that GNR fans can't get along with VR fans.  You can't seem to like BOTH bands, it's gotta be one or the other.  It's like we're all true rock and roll fans.  The members of GNR couldn't get along, as most rock bands go, so why should the fans be able to get along?  We're just going along with the script.  So commence the arguing at once.

i could care less how many tickets they sell. at longest i get to see my favorite bands perform, im fine with that
