Didn't know she was playing with Incubus now, that's cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old_school_gnr_fan Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 I wonder if Axl’s sending hate mail to the people that killed Bud Light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I'm well aware that my pathology is unique, and that there are many things at play here but... how? If I woke up tomorrow with Axl's bank account, I can one-hundred-percent guarantee the last thing in the world I would care about is making money. Actually, I'd probably click my heels and start searching for ways to give large portions of it away to those who really need it. It’s easy to understand. 99% of them earn their money from hard work and don’t appreciate others profiting off of they’re hard work by doing absolutely nothing. People don’t go to venues to see the venue. They go to the venue to see the artist. The venue makes money off the artists performing there. Artists have been getting screwed by promoters, producers, managers and ticket agencies since the beginning. There’s nothing wrong with an artist asking for profits from whatever is being sold at the venue due to them being there in the first place. You can blame the promoters for tickets costing in come cases thousands of dollars a seat. They are doing everything they can to exploit popular acts and make as much money off of them as possible.

Ask him if he would like my Zelle information. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Killer Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 If that's true - fantastic. If the venue is going to charge to sell merch / then the band should get a cut of the alcohol sales that wouldn't otherwise happen. Good merch = better sales // Good band, song, atmosphere = more alcohol sales /// win win for all If I learned anything for the Michael Jordan shoe movie, you have to look out for your own best interest for lots of reasons.

I swear every show I've been to, as soonas a cd song would come on people would race to the concessions stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillConnor_1982 Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 Good to know. Now when I get my ticket from Goldstar for $20 to see them at one of the half empty stadiums in the US this summer, I’ll know not to spend a dime on any alcohol at the venue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
