Re: how are the shows selling this time around?
The 2 shows I went to in 06 were incredible. The first was the best GNR show I've ever seen. I don't care how many other people saw the tour.
Agreed 
2006 fucking ruled. There was such an excitement in the air... too bad the album didn't come out, 'cause it killed the buzz.
When we looked it up here it was over 3 million.
There it is, and I believe that was worldwide. I think in the states it was certified platinum because of the BB deal, but only went Gold in reality.
