SHORTER SHOW ??????????
ARE YOU NUTS ?.................HOW MUCH DO WE PAY FOR GD TICKETS NOW ...........?
Ditch the "opening acts" like Journey is doing, and put on a real show. We bust our a$$es off, to work 8-10 hours, per day, 5 or 6 days a week, just to pay the bills, ( or most of em' ). Think 3 hours, 5 times a week is asking too much, for a tour grossing 80-100 million ?...........
Journey has done an EXCELLENT job of integrating Ross Valory, and Deen Castronovo, ( THAT LAD CAN SING !! ) into their show, to take pressure off Steve Augeri. I don't think having Richie sing is ANY liability at all.
Remember "DRIFT AWAY"......from the SWW tour, 86'-87' .....?
...................
Throw in all those fan clubbers, who fork over BIG money for "Premiun" seats, ( don't cha love that one! ) hotels, meals, "buzz", yadda, yadda, and someone talks about shorter shows ? NO FREAKIN' WAY !!!!
Just my opinion, but thanks for asking !.............02'.........OUT !!!
