Maybe they will get back at Velvet Revolver and dress up as Scott, Slash, Jesus and Dave Grohl.   :hihi:

looks like they're going up the east coast, to the north east, then across the midwest, then the southwest (hopefully Houston), then back to california

Maybe they'll all dress like the 2001-2002 version of GNR (since everyone now has a totally different look)...

I can't wait.  NC finally gets some GNR.  This must be the major concert update 96 Rock was talking about early today.

The only bad thing about impersonating Slash or Buckethead would be the crowd you really want to see them, and could be let down if they find out its a goof

Interesting that in 2002 they were going to play in Greensville, SC.  This year in Greensboro, NC.  Only reason that it is weird is because I moved to a town called Greensville last year! 

Looks like Axl and Co. are starting from the tour where they should have ended in 2002?

Backing up sort of?

The GnR people don't reveal any dates. The venue releases them whenever they fix it up with Gnr. The GnR people don't reveal anything.

They started the european tour with al dates announced. This time they have only announced a few dates with the tour starting tonight. Then again, it's not really the proper tour yet, only warmups...so we'll see.

Will they dress up as Velvet Revolver as a little riposte to this?

According to mygnr's message board the Cleavland date is missing too... Perhaps these dates were accidently leaked, so now they've been removed until they announce all the dates... Hopefully this week...


I hope so...

Post by: gunsnroses85 on September 18, 2006, 08:32:13 PM
If tickets are going on sale this Saturday then they should be re-releasing it very soon. On a local radio station's website they are saying they will be giving out tickets to a lucky caller.


Title: Re: Greensboro Coliseum, North Carolina - Halloween October 31st!
Post by: Negleyjj on September 18, 2006, 08:45:16 PM
Yeah, they're not going to wait until Friday to announce it, so by Wednesday/Thursday we should have these dates officially released... And hopefully all the other dates they've scheduled as well...


Unless of course tickets don't go on sale this Saturday, but I don't even want to think about that...  :no:

Post by: slash666 on September 19, 2006, 06:05:11 PM
i emailed them and got this reply:

At this time, it should still listed under the date of Oct 31 but we pushed the on-sale back to Sept 30 as radio commercials were delayed.?  We plan on press releasing later this week but the show is still scheduled and should be a very good one.

I got a similar e-mail (I sent before I saw th other reply):

Hi Jake - the show is still a go for October 31. It does appear the date
tickets will go on sale will be moved to NEXT Saturday - September 30.
We are awaiting a final confirmation on that detail but the show is
still on.

Conspiracy theory me: Final confimation = tour announcemnt somtime by next Fri... The page originally said CD to be released later this month, if that is to be posted Oct 1st (the day after tickets go on sale) CD next month! Yeah.... I'm not really expecting it... But it's always a possibility, right?

I thought it was going to be hard to wait for this Saturday. The wait till next Saturday will be unbearable.

A question for you locals, do you think this show will be a sell-out?

It's hard to say... I see a lot of people around here with GNR shirts, and GNR listed on their Facebook accounts... But they just might stand out to me and be a small minority... I hope it's a sell out... But I really have no idea...

I heard today on the radio that tickets go on sale this Saturday. This mistake could be a good thing for us hardcore fans. Other than this I haven't heard anything at all about the concert, another bonus for us. I won't be able to get there in time to get a good spot in the floor area so I'm going to go for the lower area seating. Do you guys believe this is going to cost the maximum of $75?

I'm pretty sure $75 will just be floor... But I've been wrong before...

From Staff Reports
The Guns N' Roses concert at the Greensboro Coliseum has a new date: Nov. 2 at 8 p.m.
