Well, this just popped up in my email and it says to expect more USA concert tour dates in the next few days.

So those of you who aren't able to go to Vegas or San Fran or Devore, hang in there.? You'll get your chance to see GNR.

Comeback rockers Guns N' Roses (tickets | music) are beginning to commit to their long-promised US tour plans, with a pair of two-night stands now on the books for Las Vegas and San Francisco.
The Las Vegas dates are set for Sept. 16 and 17 at the Hard Rock Hotel, while the San Francisco shows are booked for Sept. 20 and 21 at The Warfield. Tickets for the Las Vegas shows will hit the market Saturday (8/19), and San Francisco's on-sales get underway Sunday (8/20).

More dates are expected to surface in the coming days

Guns N' Roses recently wrapped up a European tour that was fairly uneventful by frontman Axl Rose's standards. However, Rose was arrested following his band's Stockholm, Sweden, stop for allegedly scuffling with a security guard and busting up a hotel lobby; the singer also fell ill near the end of the European tour's final show at London's Wembley Arena. (Former Skid Row vocalist Sebastian Bach took over to finish out the set.)

GN'R's most recent major US tour was in 2002. That troubled outing was cut short with more than a dozen shows remaining on its schedule, after Rose failed to show up for two gigs.

Rose is the only remaining original member of Guns N' Roses. The group is currently rounded out by keyboardist Dizzy Reed, bassist Tommy Stinson, keyboardist Chris Pitman, drummer Brian "Brain" Mantia, and guitarists Robin Finck, Richard Fortus and Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal.

The band has been working the road in advance of its supposedly soon-to-be-released album, "Chinese Democracy." The disc, which has been in the pipeline for about a decade, and the release of which has been delayed repeatedly over the years, will be the group's first collection of original material since the early '90s. No specific release date has been announced



I feel a BIG announcement coming soon ;D

Maybe the dates will come out this coming Monday.  Isn't that when most news usually comes out?

If an entire tour is announced, perhaps that is a good sign for CD.

Maybe I am being way to optimistic. But I really do think this is the year. Everything is going along so smoothly.

I'm hoping there's one big announcement soon with everything we need to know. Hopefully the CD is 100% done and only the small details are being hammered out at this point.
