Beat Bieber even. Interesting methodology.

They have a very strong case.

Back after a 20 plus year layoff, and it was right to stadiums.  Face it, the GNR name on its own wasn't moving tickets anymore.  You don't do "Up Close And Personal" by choice.

But in addition to the ambitious scope, I don't really recall a bad review either.  They ranged from "pretty good" to "that was fuckin' awesome".  And I mean proper reviews, not just online fan comments.

Do you think finishing an arena tour just 1.5 months before the 2012 UCAP leg started had anything to do with it? Or the fact that there was a booked European tour in the summer?

Just curious to hear your take on this.
