Re: Brain To Tour w/ GNR In Summer?
Now, flash forward to the current times, GNR will not be doing a major tour in the US. It is just not economically feasible for tour promoters in this current economical climate. Tour promoters want a sure thing, which means a proven product. Roth fronted VH, AC/DC, Metallica, and U2 all fall into this category. Only a reunited GNR would attract any major dollars in the current climate. Let's call this the familiarity factor. I could foresee a few new GNR shows in Europe though as they seem to be more open to the new Gunz as opposed to the US.
DAMN! Why do you have to be right?
Re: Brain To Tour w/ GNR In Summer?
There is just as much hostility towards the new GN'R in Europe as in the US, when GN'R were last here they rode the cresent wave of "Greatist Hits" which was a smash hit, and pulled off a successful tour.
But the level of the hostility is imagined to be worse than what it really is. You have to go out and work to win people over, sitting at home doing nothing just feeds the doubts in peoples minds. The new band has never been promoted and introduced, even to this day the new band is a mystery and appears to be a ramshackle. They could have had a kickass website, introducing the band members, having videos and other media showing the band tearing shit up, but they never bothered to do anything and these failures are still hurting the credability of the band today.
Going out and delivering a top quality product in every aspect soon turns things around, you have make the effort to make things happen and make things change. Sitting at home, doing nothing, and hoping for the best never works out in the long term, for anyone in any walk of life.

Oh so absolutely.
No matter who's fault it is, your point is still 100% truthfull.
Re: Brain To Tour w/ GNR In Summer?
It's a VERY true statement. The problem is, the iron was hot in 2000/01. THAT's when people thought the mystery was cool, and were interested. But they waited so long, that it cooled, and no one really gives a fuck at this point, other than the hardest of the die hards.
At this point if new Guns were to continue, the best route would be for it to just be Axl doing the underground thing like Trent does with NIN. Problem with that, is he actually HAS to have a website, that's updated, and provides info and freebies, and shit like that.
