Any possible tour dates aftet this summer?

[jarmo]

As a brit how are ticket sales in the USA?

Good or slow i cant beleive after seeming like years of very little

They had to add second dates in the major markets after the first nights sold out.

I wouldn't be surprised if something similar happened abroad whenever they take the tour to places like South America and Europe etc.

Gotta think they double up the bigger cities in Europe.

All the more so if they have to wait until next spring/summer.

It's a bit different scene in Europe during summer. Every country has it's own "big" festival so I see (and hope) GN'R headlining Donington,rock am ring,Hell fest,rock Bavaria,sonisphere,Sweden rock etc.
a second show in let's say,England or France would be headlining a stadium.

Although I can see it's easier and cheaper for the band to do a lot of festivals, I hope they do their own shows exclusively.

Is it ? do you think it's easier dealing with a huge festival manager and everything that comes with it than just a stadium or outdoor place ?

They can skip a lot of logistics by playing festivals.

OK ! I'm a concert go-er not an expert in logistics and curfews.

I'm no expert either, but it has to be cheaper and easier for the whole production team if they don't need to bring a whole stage with them to set up around Europe.

That said, I won't attend any festivals so I hope they do their own shows.

[jarmo]

As far as I know, festivals can supply certain production elements.

For example, at Coachella they had those huge curved video screens that GN'R could use.
So you might not need to carry video screens around if you only play festivals.

There are other things they would probably supply the artists with as well.


Also, festivals might be able to book artists that might not be able to play their own shows in certain markets.
That's probably not really true with GN'R.

But, as an example of a festival doing something good, without Coachella, would GN'R had played those other April shows?

AC/DC will always play. They are relentless. However, the rescheduled shows with Axl were always intended to be the end of the tour, so I don't see them playing more shows after the current run until their next record - if there is one.

GNR have missed the summer festival slots in Europe, unless they go for a late August run, I think, so I reckon if they tour it will be South America / Austraia / NZ / Japan Autumn-Spring with Europe in 2017

[jarmo]

I would assume that an European tour would take as much time as the upcoming North American tour. At least two months.
Unless it's split in two parts like some bands do.
