Guns and Roses Reunion (Original Lineup)

[rage2]

One of my favorite bands, 23 years after they fell apart, looks like they need a big payday. About fucking time! So done with watching the Axl GnR Karaoke Band the last couple of years.

So far Axl, Slash and Duff are pretty much confirmed, Matt Sorum will most likely be playing instead of Steven Adler. No word on Izzy yet.

[D'z Nutz]

No way!! They actually agreed to perform!? I knew they were on speaking terms a few months ago but I thought it'd be a bit of a stretch to expect them to get on stage together.

Still, I'm a little skeptical this will ever happen cause Axl is such a wildcard. Everything I read suggested Izzy wasn't interested but that was a couple months ago.

[blairtruck]

they couldn't get Axl on stage when he was backstage. good luck getting him on stage when he isnt even at the promotion.

[FixedGear]

Yep this has been known since the end of the last fake-gnr vegas residency in 2014.

Sounds like they will be headlining coachella, then possibly touring with reunited Skid Row.

I'm a huge GNR nerd, even during the fake-gnr era (which sucked).

[rage2]

I got kicked out of the Hard Rock for being too drunk at the GnR residency haha. I felt like I was Steven Adler.

Seriously man? That is fucking epic :thumbsup:

[JRSC00LUDE]

If it happens, and they can actually pull off the tour, it'll be the tour of a lifetime that's for sure! :thumbsup:

:rofl:

If any of this is true, Slash will probably show up and say, "Where the fuck is Axl"...again:)

Was there for an AMG event and it was unlimited food + drinks. Went to the GnR show after with some randoms I met at the hotel bar, and it was like 1:30am when they gave me the boot. Chick behind me ratted me out for puking in my beer cup lol. I stumbled back to the hotel, passed out, woke up at 6am, got on the bus to take me to the track, slept on the bus, then drove all day long in a bunch of AMGs, and hammered out this article that night while drinking at the bar:

Talk about being a functioning alcoholic haha. No way I could pull that off today. :rofl:

Better try and go to one of the early shows. Axl is such a wildcard that it could all fall apart after a couple shows. Axl is reportedly worth over 100mm, so it's not likely that he needs the money, but rather enough time has passed and the whole band realizes they can get one big payday before they're old as fuck.

+1.

If rumors of Vegas being show #1 are true, that'd be perfect. Easy trip!

[FixedGear]

This will be the official announcement: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/axl-rose-to-talk-guns-n-roses-on-jimmy-kimmel-live-20151230

Edit: that article is wrong about the timeline (of course), the rumors actually started at the end of the last Vegas residency

If you grab a bunch of tickets, I'll take one. I would imagine it will be difficult to get tickets, so I'll do the same.

[FixedGear]

Reputable sources are now hinting at an actual reunion on Kimmel next tuesday

[finboy]

Vancouver will have its next riot way sooner than expected

[Bladeh]

Axl Rose can't sing for shit now and I wouldn't pay any large amount of cash to be disappointed, I went to a Use your Illusion show in the early 90's at Maine Road, Manchester it was postponed for a week because Rose was all over the place then.

Kimmel appearance scheduled for tomorrow night has been cancelled. :(

[Lex350]

I wonder what the over/under would be of Axl doing even a second show?

[Jlude]

anyone buy tickets?

[FixedGear]

Nah, I'll wait for the tour.

[Inzane]

I feel bad for the rest of the band members, having to work with Axl again.

I wonder how many times he skips practice this time. How many shows on this tour are going to start 1+ hour late, etc.

[FixedGear]

Axl has been showing up to concerts on time for the last several years.

[roopi]

Presale for the Edmonton date (August 30th) started today and seems to be alot of tickets. Got myself some floors seats. :thumbsup:

[JRSC00LUDE]

I bought for Regina yesterday, Pit 1 right in front of the stage. Fan-fucking-tastic. :thumbsup:

[Swank]

Will Dr Pepper be available at the concerts?

[rage2]

See you on the floor roopi.

I hate how we get shafted on so many concerts and have to go to Edmonton for all the good shit.

[dj_patm]

The prices are absolutely insane for the pit.

Even normal seats in the lower bowl are $235..... Of course they go on sale are my sink floods my condo.

:cry: :rolleyes:

Come to Regina, I haven't given my second ticket to anyone yet. First big show at the brand new stadium so you KNOW it'll go off smoothly....

Only if you buy a whole package with them. My pit tickets were $250.00 a piece plus a fan club membership. I accidentally took the more expensive membership (115 instead of 65) but I wasn't about to cancel and start over and risk losing them. It came with a hoodie for the extra 50 bucks so whatever!

I might take you up on that. All depends on my vacation scheduling.

I'm in no rush to let it go so I won't till I hear from you. I've got two rooms reserved down there too, one at the Delta and one at The Sheraton. :thumbsup:

[BensonTT]
