I think this probably deserves a bit of speculation in relation to the London show......

No rumours about it though other than this. Would be fun if he did do it.

I don't like these things nowadays where you just have no idea or possibility to understand what is going on.

Could you just tell what that is and why it was posted. It would really be as simple as that. It is so arrogant to call something art when it is not a very nice piece. If you think it is, keep it in your private vault :beer:

Ah right! Well the video says "In Hell Everybody Loves Popcorn." Popcorn is a nickname for Adler, so the speculation is that he will be at the London show. Slash is a well known horror fan though, and the clip is taken from a Rob Zombie film, so it could be nothing.

Maybe. I was wondering about Adler's current rap sheet, and whether he would actually be allowed to travel and work outside of the US. I'm not sure what sort of record he has, and whether it would be restrictive.

Frankly,it would be cool to see Steven,Izzy,Bach or anyone else on stage with GN'R but I'm counting backwards to get on the plane to Stockholm.
The tour is called Not in this lifetime for a reason,not for some surprise guest for a song or two.

This used to be a big problem in long Scandinavian summer nights but nothing much you can do with geography.

But now this has spread to other parts of Europe as well. What next, Sunday brunch with the band playing live with kids :peace:

..Is it for security reasons?

I have heard from a few sources now that fans or 'fans' were still arriving around an hour into the gig. Yet, no word of any extra security and they simply came late.

What is wrong with Londoners? By now it should be clear to everyone that the gig will start at the scheduled time. I was thinking that it is probably one of the gig capitals of the world and there are just so many events all the time.

Could it be that many attendees are simply not so hardcore fans and they don't mind being late? They have seen all the big acts and more keep coming, so it just does not matter missing something from someone.

Let's see what happens tonight as at least now no one can possibly not know the actual starting time.

Connection in the stadium was poor hence why not many streams.

Was a awesome show, axl was in high spirits throughout , was in front of duff most of the night :)

Never done front row standing before.. Was lots of fun! Gave me a different view to the band.

I was going to record a lot of the show but was enjoying it too much ,it blows the 2010/2012 shows out of the water for sure.

Just a couple of pics!

^This clip--thanks for posting--reminds me when I saw him with Myles and the Conspirators in October 2016 in Denver and Slash did a 25 minute Rocket Queen with an extended solo that was simply unbelievable. The solo went on for about 15 minutes before he segued back to RQ. I usually don't like solos that much but this one was captivating.

I don't think 80,000 is the right number. For an end-stage setup like this, I can estimate about 50,000 given there are a total of 60,000 seats in the stadium (including behind the stage).


Title: Re: London, UK, June 16th 2017

Whatever the numbers are they are huge 60-80 thousands two nights Ina row

It's something the band should be proud of

It should be promoting this via social marketing and networking

It should be talking about this in interviews and radio spots.   It's cool

But no

Fans can just keep guessing and speculating

Yes, but I'm sure that's for in the round concerts with the stage in the middle of the stadium and 100% of the seats plus the floor filled up.

Whatever the numbers are they are huge 60-80 thousands two nights Ina row

It's something the band should be proud of

It should be promoting this via social marketing and networking

It should be talking about this in interviews and radio spots.   It's cool

But no

Fans can just keep guessing and speculating

Check out their social media channels. They are promoting this almost every day.

Then why are you guessing on the crowd size?

They are saying it's sold out. Fucking promotion, isn't that what you are crying about?

Think I read its 60000 roughly for seated football and around 80000 for concerts.

No I am talking about how you have zero clue on how many people are actually there.

You are guess.  You have numbers from 50-80 thousand people.

A simple tweet or message or quick interview or god forbid a nice little talk on the Mic from the band during the show thanking the how many people are here making it a sell out....

Or you can just keep guessing and posting your pictures.

I'm just guessing based on the info I've seen. It's not even important... it was yet another sold out stadium, good enough for me.

This is yet another thing you are nitpicking on just so you can broadcast your daily dose of negatives.

"Why aren't they publishing the exact attendance numbers in social media?".... Jesus, is this the level of criticism now?



The numbers will come with Billboard Boxscore by the way, no worries.

Yep I think the interaction between the band and fans via through social media or any other form of media could be 1000000000000 * better.

Promoting huge sold out shows, talking to fans, giving some sorta specific info are all good things.

Sorta like opposite of the social media posts you linked to here.   

Anyways.  Great crowd!  It is impressive.  I will go back to my other fun threads

There was one, a drawing of a top-hat wearing Jack the Ripper figure (white on black) with a guitar in a Victorian alleyway. To me, this was available as a teeshirt, but din't work as well as the print, as image was cropped on each side taking away (IMO) the effect. As an aside, the image about (the bullet logo with the Union Flag insert, would have sold loads if available as a tee-shirt. But they sold loads anyway of the other designs.

I bought the Ripper a Lithograph T Shirt, it's pretty cool. Wanted a different from normal tour T Shirt this time. There was a good choice of designs though.

Don't know about anyone else but I'm thinking this might be the one and only time we see this lineup touring. Have a feeling it might be a one off and then everyone will go their separate ways.

Amazing, amazing show :) :)  I asked soem staff members and they all said around 80,000.  The empty seats were just the lower tier was included in the GA and people could move about.  The show was phenomonal possibly the best concert I have been to.  My partner knows the hits thought it was outstanding was surprised by how many album tracks he knew :) 

Went to the pop up shop early Friday morning and was surprised to be one of the 50 to receive a free tour t shirt. 

All in all I hope this line up does and album or even an Ep and tours and tours and tours :)

Across all the Guns N' Roses shows I've been to in the last 15 years I don't recall Axl ever looking as happy onstage as he does right now.

Also the difference in performance between Chicago last July and London last weekend is remarkable, I think this iteration of the band is just getting started, and whether it leads to new music or just more tours I'm happy either way.
