Title: Why did gnr skip some big European countries?
Post by: bolton on October 10, 2010, 06:20:01 AM
I mean on Germany as first, then Greece, Poland, Ukraine...Do you think promoters in  those countries don't have interest, gnr are too expensive  or there is sńe other reason.

I can't talk for any other countries, but for Greece this year has been really difficult, the economy is going really bad and many concerts didn't go so well...

Some were cancelled before they were even announced...

Take Ozzy for example, he was moved to a smaller venue cause the presale went really bad.

But I'm pretty sure Greece will be included in the next European tour. We have a good crowd here and this band should play Greece sometime soon... Or I will run out of money...

I don't know - but since GNR was in Poland in 2006 and was well received by the crowd, Axl was happy etc., I don't think GNR are too expensive

I'm quite sure they would fill a 10.000 indoor venue, or they could play at the stadium like in 2006

I'd like to know what was the reason

That's all it can really be, is promoter issues.

Same with Glasgow, in 2006 their show at the SECC was probably the best of the UK tour in my opinion. The crowd was amazing, along with Axl saying he had Scottish heritage.  :hihi:

So there can't be no other reason, other than promotor issues, as to why they never played there this year.

Saved for European tour leg 3 2011. Promoters will be more inclined to book GNR especially after this leg of the tour.

I'm guessing this as well. There's enough countries to do another European leg and probably some places we haven't thought of. Germany (could probably do at least 2 or 3 shows), Poland, Ukraine, Greece, Turkey, Latvia (Metallica and other bands have played there; I don't think GN'R ever have)

Well I do think that they will come in Bulgaria soon. The reason why they didn't come now is that here we do not have  a good arena. However, we will have next year. My opinion. I'm waiting.  :peace:

In my opinion it's better for them to go to places where they have never been before, for example take Croatia and Serbia.

They were never here and there before and they still managed to almost sell out both venues. (Croatia had 15,000+ tickets sold, Serbia 14,000+)

Next time (and I believe there will be a next time), they will sell out the show in a matter of days.  : ok:

I am hoping for a 2011 Europe leg 3 tour possible in their summer to coincide with some festival dates. Glasgow must be on the map. I would personally love for GNR to perform at Download and Glastonbury. If not they can play a few cities in the UK. Germany could be more dates Kyrie unless they go the festival options. Have GNR been to Hungary, Budapest?
