    They finished a 3 month US arena tour in January. These are shows to keep them warmed up before they head overseas.

    More like they had trouble filling arenas and figured it was more profitable to gouge whatever gullible idiots fans would show up to a small venue instead of trying to groupon a bunch of unsold tickets. (Can you tell I'm bitter I missed their Orlando arena show only to find out they want 100 fucking dollars for a ticket to their next show?)

    What most of you don't understand about The Up Close & Personal tour, is that A) they've already played arena shows in ALL of these markets a few months ago. B) ticket prices for this particular tour are much higher than the aforementioned arena shows in the fall. So of course attendance isn't going to be arena-sized. And C) as far as these three LA shows are concerned, they make sense to me now. Because when GNR only played one arena show in LA at the Forum two months ago, I knew they didn't meet demand. So these three shows at the House Of Blues, Wiltern & Palladium meets that extra demand not captured by the sole Forum show in December. And of course, a small percentage of fans who attended the Forum show will return to see these three new shows...

    That's a special kind of delusion.
