They had some concerts booked over there but they got cancelled because of the unstable political situation:

May 19th, 1993 - GN'R planned to play a show at the Lenin Stadium in Moscow, Russia. The show was cancelled due to the political situation in the country.
May 20th, 1993 - Second planned show at the Lenin Stadium in Moscow, Russia. This show was also cancelled due to the political situation in the country.

taken from the history of gnr section on this site.

strange, wonder why they didnt perform there.

Because they didn't have the same manager as those other bands who was responsible for the festival? And the fact that they didn't do much during 1989.


Maybe they dont like russians

Oh, that must be the real reason.  ::)

The only reason that show ever happened was because Doc McGee, mamager of all of those bands got busted for drugs and was able to put on this show as part of his community service sentence. Pretty kick ass show though.

You can start a new topic for that.

This is serving no purpose.
