Here Today... Gone To Hell!

Do you think Axl will run into the guys in Metallica?? Just imagine GNR/Metallica Tour 14 years later.. Although, I dont think Axl would go on first for a second!!

Nor should he.. me i wouldn't want them to tour with Metallica, GNR and an up n coming new band is fine for me - it should be the GNR show, no distractions.

It would give new-gnr haters reason to go... especially older fans

Not at all.

I like Metallica but I feel it will bring the whole GN'R comeback concept down a couple of notches. Metallica's last album was ordinary and I don't want GN'R associated with aging rock mediocracy. That's how I feel the tour would be seen as.

   I think this is one of the coolest things ive seen in yrs.     Metallica and GnR headlining a concert.   WoW this is Great.

A festival is fine, but full blown tour, no way.. and ya know metallica aren't gonna open. fuck em.

And GNRs last album was 13 cover songs, in 93... With 2 current members.. Do i have to go on?? Metallica could only lead to good things

The fact that it has been 13 years and the album years in making only increases the hype. I like Metallica, they have a good catalogue of songs for a fucking good setlist and would love to see it, but I'd prefer GN'R not to tour with them.

The fact that slash, duff, etc arent around anyomre turns ALOT of poeple off, who have no hype.. Among those, who love metallica from way back

Of corse. But I wouldnt want a tour together.. just a show or two

I'd rather see GN'R with another band..

And.. gnr SHOULD tour with another band.. at least for a little bit.

It wouldn't be worth it for Guns to hook up with Metallica, except in Philly.  Philly is still hostile toward them and it may provide a comfort zone to the fans to know that they'd see at least one band that night..

At the upcoming festivals it doesn't look like they'll be playing on the same night, but I guess it could happen.

  You now Lars is gonna try and stalk Axl.  Lars loves axl.

and metallica's last GOOD album was in 91 with 3 current members so it's not that much of a difference    :hihi: j/k

I see Alice In Chains is booked for this festival.  Now that would be the most bad ass tour:  Guns N' Roses & Alice In Chains!

  Did they replace Layne,  whos gonna sing.


Alice in Chains = most underrated band ever.

no, just because Metallica is so much bigger right now...guns would be the opening act

i think that gnr has earned their spot as a headliner long ago and they should not be an opening act for metallica. that would be wrong.
and that would never happen cos they don't play on the same night.

If Axl releases a single and an album this year and then decides to open for metallica, he deserves to be lynched.

i hate metallica but guns doing a show with them would cause a publicity that no one would want to be without.

Im with ya bro, i even had a thought of Gn'R playin' with the new Skid Row like the  93' tour!!

just dreamin', but i know what your on about!! : ok:

Puke on Metallica and thier gay asses!

Im excited.  :yes:

I love Metallica and GN'R, they're my two fav bands. This can only be a good thing :beer:

I don't think they're touring together anyway, they just happen to be playing at the same festival.

No. Metallica ain't shit compared to Guns N' Roses, actually, they have nothing incommon, which is a good thing. for one part im happy that Axl has been quiet all these years, better than releaasing CD's like "St Anger".

Thankyou for your intelligent observation ::)

Why is this all of a sudden Metallica vs GN'R anyway?
I think it's great that two great rock bands are headlining like it was 1992 all over again! : ok:

Metallica is a good supporting act for Guns N' Roses.  : ok:

I hope GNR confirmed playing Download. GNR/Metallica is one of the biggest tickets you will get in the UK for years.

I've always wanted to see Metallica live, although never bothered to obtain a ticket. I'm not a real fan of them, Justice for All being the only album i like along with a few tracks from the Black album. Still, if they show up on a festival along with GnR then here's hoping  : ok:

It's a killer bill, no doubt-you european folks are lucky you still get to have major festivals ever year. :drool:

But I wouldnt group them as playing together or try to construe this as some sort of 'joint-tour' ala the early 90s. it's two bands headlining festivals on different nights in order to promote upcoming new material.

that said, im jealous as hell :crying:

Metallica is headlining the Rock am Ring / Rock im Park Festival, Germany for which Guns are also rumoured to appear. That would be an ultimate Lineup...

No. I've Never liked Metallica. They're a heavy metal band and I've never considered GN'R as a heavy metal band, but that's just me.

I'd Love to see Billy Talent open for GN'R! Billy Talent's self titled debut album reminds me a lot of Appetite For Destruction. It's not quite as good as Appetite but it has that raw energy.

I think after that show Metallica will just retire.... :beer:

I saw Metallica and Guns and Roses play live at the Oakland Coliseum in 1992.  It was not a good time for Guns and Roses and Metallica more or less kicked their asses completely.  Metallica is an incredibly tight live act and it is extremely hard to follow them at a concert. 

At the time, Guns and Roses was a terrible mess of a band.  Axl spend about half the concert backstage changing costumes, while the rest of the band would just solo or something to pass the time.  Anyways, I saw it with a group of Guns and Roses fans, but we all left feeling that Metallica was actually a much better band and that something must be seriously messed up with Guns and Roses.

Dude i take your point but IS it a good thing? Where the fuck IS the next G'n'R, Metallica, Nirvana etc... it disturbs me that it's been so long since a bamd came outta nowhere and blew everyone away.


Yeah i caught that tour in the US back in the day and Metallica fucking blew Guns away as much as i hate to admit it. P
Nu-G'n'R aren't proven enough yet to headline over Metallica on a joint tour though. Plus i heard Lars n James think it's become a joke now like most big bands that remember Guns 'n' Roses in their heyday, so it'll never happen. 

well iv seen metallica twice, and they were awesome, im gonna get the chance to see axl now too, but the best part is that the two gigs are within 3 dyas of each other

I think Gn'R will show up Metallica this time.  The band is so incredible now, especially after recruiting the one and only bumblefoot.  Either way though, it'll be a great experience for the people who get to see this show. 

Two bands that used to be awesome but now suck.. No thanks...

cmon, how could you not wanna see gnr and metallica on the same night, i think it would be incrediblie, the things people find problems with continue to amaze me.

I saw them the same night when both bands were at the top of their game..... Before they both blew... now that was a show... Atleast this time there would be plenty of songs to leave and go get a beer or take a piss....

Hopefully Axl and those guys make up and are at peace with each other.

in one of Axl's recent interviews...did't he mention he was "hanging out with lars the other day"??

It's neither gnr or metalicathese two bands are just shadows of themselves milking cash cow
keep thinking these band are still growing strong :hihi:

this was great when it was called 92 :hihi:

Not at all.

I think it was already a mistake in 1992

Let's tour with a Rock band (Red Hot, Oasis etc...), not a Metal band.

GNR ain't Metal.

Who the fuck are James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich anyways??

wrong

If some pop crap like Oasis was playing with GNR, it'd be so much fun to through anything and everything at them to get them off stage. Just like green Day at Woodstock in '94. Turned into Mudstock for those guys. Keep pop away from rock concerts.

Metallica and GNR, not happening. Different nights at a festival is a different story and does not qualify as sharing the same bill, IMO.

Metallica is still pretty much Metallica... Their music has just sucked ass for over a decade now..

When did Axl hang out with Lars?  This is news to me! :hihi:

there's no way in hell James would agree to it! :hihi:

Interesting how you came out of the VR forum just to spew some hatred. Thanks for that...now....back you go.....we will leave some kibble by the door before we turn out the light.

Couldn't care less about a Metallica/GN'R tour...

Bring on NIN/GN'R! (like that would happen!)

noooooooooooooooooooo not with metallica   >:( i prefer the darkness  :P

No, this does not excite me.

after i saw that movie metallica came out with, and st anger, i pretty much lost all respect for them, hetfield is 1000 times the bitch that people accuse axl of bein.

No way I'm going to a damn stadium show after being 15 feet from Axl at Hammerstein.

They are still my two favorite bands and it was my dream come true and a magical night at Giants Stadium when I was 21.

And four songs on St. Anger were the best tunes Metallica have put out since AJFA in '89.

I doubt Metallica would do anything with Axl after the last tour

I have been collecting Metallica bootlegs since 1985 ( pm me for my list sometime).And seen them hella times Live.Theres in no better front man then James Hetfield....just listen to a song titled " blackend" live

Yeah it gets me pretty hard. My 2 fav bands on the same bill. But gunners are my number 1.


 :peace:

Be cool if Metallica was playing to support a "best of" disc......anything after the black album pretty much blows.

Would be a cool show though, two "older" bands that can still rock the shit out of any band today.  Fans of both bands (I'm guessing there is a lot of cross over appeal there) would sell out EVERY show too.  But I wonder if the egos would be too big and if the past would come back to haunt them......

the difference between these two bands are that metallica plays in front of 20,000+ fans every night, every city they play in. even with all those "shitty" albums they've released in the last 15 years.  ::)

what did gnr average on the last tour....10K? maybe less??

metallica is one of the biggest bands in the world. the exposure for the new lineup would be incredible. but there are more effective (and less risky) methods of getting exposure.

I would love to see it.? I doubt it would happen though.? I do believe GN'R would have to play first if they were going to tour together.? Metallica? got way too big, after GN'R left, for the new GN'R to play after them.

This is turning into a Metallica vs. GN'R thing.  Everyone knows what everyone has done in the last 10 years.... And no one is knocking Metallica.  Especially me!  Notice the snake and the titles above and below it? 'Nuff said.

It was actually at either the 14th or 15th show at hammerstein. And before Madagascar that Axl said "So i was hanging out with Lars the other day......" and then they start the song. I believe Lars liked Madagascar and that was the reason for the comment. But it proves they are talking again. Dunno bout Hetfield though, anyone remember the video of Hetfield readnig out a list of Axl's requests for stuff backstage back in 92 and then laughing about it with the Metallica ontourage. This lead to a few rants in 93 like "Metallica are jerks...bla bla bla"

Guns N' Roses / Metallica / Alice In Chains.

now there's a line-up i'd pay to see.

I've tried to get into Metallica over the past 20 years and I just can't. Their music is too robotic and too emotionally simple (pretty much just different shades of anger). I like Kill 'Em All and a handful of pre-Black Album songs, but it's just not enough to interest me overall. I did see them when they toured with Guns in 1993. Honestly, the Metallica set was better than the Guns set, mainly because they worked the crowd better. But I would not want to see Axl tour with them. It would make no sense at all. I don't think he should do any co-headlining at all. There's not a single band where that would make any sense. Just keep lining up the throwaway openers and leave it alone.

They are legitimate..  Metallic would wipe the stage with Axl if they went out now,  they did it back in the 90s...plus they don't like Axl anyway...

Could you image what Metallica fnas would do to Axl live?  it would be bloody...


James Hetfield:
  "We learned alot when we went on tour with Guns N' Roses,  we learned what to do as a rock band on the road, and what NOT to do as a rock band on the road."

 

HAHAH

  Everything James and Lars did in that movie, they had to stop and talk to a therapist and discuss how it made them feel..

didn't they make fun of Axl for doing the same thing?  I think they did..

bunch of overpaid pussies

13 years ago this woulda been unbeatable. Having seen all three at their peak i promise you the current incarnations of all of them pale in comparison. AIC without Layne is even sadder than Guns without Slash!  :yes:

GNR and Metallica just wouldn't work.......  :no: as much as i like them both, it will never happen.... ever. And Download doesn't count by the way!!!!!! there on two separate days  : ok:

Metallica's last album was shit. ?Hardly even good enough to be considered ordinary.

Exactly. I'd rather have no albums for a couple years like GNR than putting out garbage like Metalligay. I feel sorry for their fans.

i would love to see a GNR and TallicA tour that actualy works this time. i dont see it happening tho. it for one was one of the riots ever. the people destroyed the stadium. i dont think alot of citys to know that not only metallica is in town but Guns rate next to them. lol besides metallica is the biggest metal band in the world. Guns is the biggest rock n roll band in the world. you can not chose a head liner. neither band is a opener, there head liners. so i dont see a tour happening. isnt metallica head lining one night coming up then the next its GnR.? 

you know, i never got to see AIC so i'll take what i can... Layne was/is one of my favourite singers but he's dead now and i hear this William DuVall guy isn't completely useless... so...

as far as Metallica, i haven't really liked any of their albums since 1988 but they've always been good live when i've seen them.

and Guns... i loved the old band, but as long as Axl is there it's good enough for me... he was always my favourite member anyway.

so yeah, i'd go see a GNR / Metallica / AIC tour... even in 2006.

At this point and time it would not work.
It would be a bad move on both parts.

I was devastated i was too young and on totally the wrong side of the atlantic to go to the Guns n' metallica tour in 1992 - that would have been my dream concert and amazing.  To have them both in one weekend at Download is like the god of rock has smiled down on me!  i cannot fcn wait!!!!!

I saw it a Foxboro Stadium, I think I was 12, my mom took me.....great show...it wouldn't work now

you'd have a better chance of seeing VR and GNR

Hell yeah, my 3 favourite bands. : ok:

Who'd have thought back in 1992 that they'd all still be around (in some form or another) in 2006?

For the record : The Memory Remains is NOT about Axl!!! The song is about some fallin' movie star.
