Topic: Report: GUNS N' ROSES' Guatemala Concert Cancelled Due To Poor Ticket

According to the Nuestro Diario newspaper, GUNS N' ROSES' April 13, 2010 concert in Guatemala City, Guatemala was cancelled due to poor ticket sales.

"I feel sad and helpless in this situation," Pedro Michelena, the president of the company in charge of the event, Success Music Entertainment, told the newspaper. "We know that thousands of Guatemalans had the intention of seeing GUNS N' ROSES."

GUNS N' ROSES was scheduled to play a single concert tonight at Estadio El Ejército, which has a capacity of more than 15,000, but only about 3,000 tickets had been sold ahead of the event, according to the paper.

Concert organizers said in a statement that they will announce within 72 hours how ticket holders can go about getting a refund.

As previously reported, GUNS N' ROSES' April 9, 2010 concert at Estadio Ricardo Saprissa in San Jose, Costa Rica was cancelled due to a faulty stage setup. The production agency 28 Producciones, which was in charge of the event, sent out an apologetic email to fans and members of the press. The email assured ticket-holding fans that they would be reimbursed and that all inquiries should be referred to the web page 28producciones.com.

My gut would say to just play for the 3k fans then. But in reality it would be cheaper to cancel the thing.

I don't know I think the band were upset with the stage collapse and just wanted to go home and get on with other things.  All the tools are there for the band to do well and I don't see them doing anything but moving forward.

You never ask a navy man if he'll have another drink, because it's nobody's goddamned business how much he's had already.
