"i believe the stones and depeche mode are the only bands to ever sell out the rose bowl. someone correct me if i'm wrong"
Pink Floyd sold it out twice, though tickets for night 2 were available at the box office the day of the show and tickets were available for the Stones 2nd show for weeks or months, nixing a planned 3rd show (city council had approved 4 shows according to an article in the LA Times in early Jan 1994).
Guns N Roses/Metallica sold it out in way less than an hour though tickets may have once again been made available due to the postponement. The city council would only allow one show so they added a 2nd show at the LA Memorial Coliseum which was only half full. Body Count was supposed to be Faith No More's replacement from what I remember but were not allowed to play either L.A. show due to the raging "Cop Killer" controversy.
