Say it ain't so!
Guns N’ Roses is Now the Twelfth Largest Economy in the World

"The latest Boxscore report has landed and, as usual, The PRP’s done the heavy-lifting of sorting through it
and posting the box office numbers of some notable metal and hard roHOLY FUCK GUNS N’ ROSES MADE HOW MUCH FUCKING MONEY?!?!
As usual, note that these numbers are not a wholly accurate reflection of how much money these artists take home.
After the ticket numbers are in, the bands still need to pay their crew and travel expenses, share a cut with the promoter,
pay their manager and booking agent, etc. On the other side of it, the numbers also don’t include any money earned from merch sales,
which in this case we conservatively estimate would be in the bajillions (it was the only merch booth we’ve ever seen manned by a loan officer).
But these Boxscore reports do provide a general idea of the earning power of this band, and HOLY FUCK GUNS N’ ROSES ARE FUCKING RICH.
Meanwhile, Izzy Stradlin has now said that he didn’t participate in the reunion because his bandmates “didn’t want to split the loot equally.”
I admire his principals… but I bet his accountant does not. Because did I mention HOLY FUCK THESE GUYS ARE MAKING FUCKING FUCKTONS OF MONEY.
