You really still have not learned to read yet have you? It’s really a sad thing. Gnr were just as big if not bigger in the early 90s than Led Zeppelin was in the 70s, I am sorry to say. Zeppelin didn’t play in front of 7 million people in a 3-year stretch. Again for album sales, gnr only really have 3 studio albums of original material plus an EP yet they sold over 60 million albums world wide, where as LZ had about 10 studio albums thus more albums sold. Do the math.
Also gnr did something zeppelin never did, they had two albums in the top 5 at the same time and gnr did it twice. Again gnr has the biggest selling debute album ever by a rock band 15m more than led zeppelins debute album.
Like I said before, you cannot just go by album sales, go by touring and all that other stuff you fail to look at. You are totally ignoring everything else oh but that is right, that wouldn’t make your argument valid now would it?
Bring up their touring, and the other stuff and you will see, but I am sure you will not since it would prove that I am correct.
You really have no clue how big guns n roses were when the albums dropped but that is ok its your ignorance.
I still find it funny that you lost terribly to your original argument and now you are trying to turn this into something else.
