"Not in a lifetime ... Tour": Guns N 'Roses do not achieve the expected success

Not in a lifetime ... Tour

Guns N 'Roses have returned to the musical arena with their current tour' Not in a lifetime… Tour ', a show marked by the return of the original members: Axl Rose, Slash and Duff McKagan.

The three members of the legendary band meet again for the first time since the 'Use Your Illusion Tour' tour in 1993. 'Not in a lifetime… Tour' has created a strong expectation for both its fans and the press, who since For months I was speculating about how much the group would charge for each concert and how many tickets they would be able to sell. The tour began on April 1 and, after the first concerts, the expected box office has not been such, and the tour business that appeared to be spectacular does not seem to be finally.

The production company Live Nation Entertainment, organizer of the Guns N 'Roses reunion tour, has informed the media that the concerts have had a "Unprecedented success", despite the meager ticket sales that have been obtained in some American cities. As a reply The North American press revealed data that confirmed these numbers with ticket sales at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City in Missouri, a show that had 27.000 attendees, in a stadium that has a capacity for 70.000.

Social media also echoed this issue by confirming that, although the first concert in Chicago managed to sell all the box office tickets, the second showed a deserted aspect of the top of the Soldier Field stadium.

Live Nation seeks to maintain a positive view of the tour and in its press release stated: «'Not in a lifetime… Tour' is not only the best rock tour of this summer, it will be one of the best of all of 2016 and one of the most successful reunions in rock history. So far, more than a hundred million dollars in tickets have been sold. We are expected to sell over a million tickets by the end of the tour. In advance we congratulate the band for this spectacular result and for reaching such an important achievement ».
