Hollywood Gunner Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) if a show gets cancelled? if axl storms off early? or do you think that the chances of any of those things happening are slim to none? personally im not sure if slash or duff would have agreed to the shows if axl hadnt cut down on the antics these past few years... he actually stopped altogether from what i remember... makes me wonder if its because he wanted to show the other guys he was able to Edited March 1, 2016 by Hollywood Gunner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) To answer your question - no. Vegas (the powers that be) have probably already read the riot act to TB/Axl. Edited March 1, 2016 by Original Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtle Signs Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 No. People paid lots of money for these tickets. Most of us are too old for a riot. Also,many of the people there will be Vegas high rollers who get comp tickets,they are there to see WTTJ and SCOM,not to be involved in a riot.

Also,this won't happen because even though we aren't privy to the contracts you'd have to imagine that Axl will have the shit sued out of him if he just decided not to perform. Again,GNR is now a legacy act. The kids who were in College when AFD came out are headed for the AARP. They have real life issues to deal with,not riots at GNR shows.

Subtle Signs Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Rioting over a rock band not playing a concert and potentially injuring hundreds of innocent people is fucking stupid. Anyone who does that is just looking for an excuse to do dumb shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those people were sooo upset, omg! In Southamerica, crowd will not get mad at him for coming out late because people are used to going out late and spending a whole night out partying. BUT if he throws a tantrum and ends show just because he can, then yes, a huge riot would ensue in Brazil or Argentina stadiums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ace Nova Posted March 2, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) I was in the Philly riot of 2002. I was on the floor with 3 hot chicks....and rumor was that Axl was still in NY watching a Knicks game.,,,chairs started flyin'.....I grabbed my gals and headed for the exits....met the girl I would spend the next 2 years of my life with......crazy times....ended up moving 1000 miles away from home with her and I'm still here (without her) to this day. If he showed up I would have just had a foursome with them (that's what we were planning....yeah....I used to be the man...lol....) and I probably wouldn't of ended up with her....or in Florida..... I met a girl shortly there after and had my son with her right here in Florida. Crazy how the world works. Had Axl shown up that night, my life would be completely different.

yourcrazy Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 We are all older now including Axl. The past 10 yrs Axl had actually been pretty reliable. Let's hope that continues and this whole thing goes smoothly and that the performances are great. This would help ensure the legacy of the band.

If by epic you mean dumb and pointless,then I agree. I guess I'm old since I don't think risking people's lives and destroying property over a concert is cool.

tkarmy Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 if axl gets another riot on his hands no promoter will ever touch him again... his bad mood would literally cost him dozens of millions in potential concert earnings. he'll behave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 The thing is about the original riots, it was people who had wasted £20 pocket money who were stranded in city centres and thought ''Axl was a wanker'. Now it would be people annoyed at spending $2000, stranded five minutes from their luxury hotel, still thinking ''Axl is a wanker'' (yip, that bit will be unchanged). All you have to do if Rose does not show is, go back to the Tangiers, shoot some craps and ask for a penis massage and champagne. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
