Title: Speculation on Halifax Openers
Post by: Noticeboy on October 11, 2006, 04:01:45 PM
As the title reads..

Any thoughts or leaks on who may be opening for the Halifax show now that Baz had to pull out?
Or will the 2nd act now be the first? (if there's a second act)

I'm pissed Baz won't be rocking out but alas.. shit happens

Ricky, Julian, and Bubbles will probably open. I'd rather see the TPB then Bach. I'd actually show up early to catch the Trailer Park Boys.

Velvet Revolver.  :hihi:

Wouldn't that be awkward, though?

well I asked for speculation and thats what I got..lol

The Trailer Park Boys would most likely get the best reponse of those mentioned.. haha

On another note... anyone traveling from the South Shore interested in sharing a limo to and from the show.. we have 3 seats left in the limo.

It better not be Helix....I'd fucking piss myself if it were Buckcherry. That'd be so badass. But also impossible.

Nah I doubt it. Doesn't Axl hate bands like Whitesnake and Poison?

It wouldnt surprise me at all if it was Sloan, they opened for the Stones a few weeks ago in Halifax as well.

Whitesnake is nothing like Poison.  Whitesnake is Canadian, which alone makes them cool.

Love that song.  "Slide it in."

It wouldnt surprise me at all if it was Sloan, they opened for the Stones a few weeks ago in Halifax as well.

Sloan is going to be out west here in Canada on there own tour durring that same time frame.

When did Whitesnake become Canadian?  :rofl:

One of the members of Sloan is sick. SHould be better soon tho. I was suppossed to interview the band the other day (i'm a journalist) but they cancelled my interview and their Toronto show.

But they'd be an awesome opener, for right across canada

Whitesnake is a lot like poison but who's Sloan? I dunno why but I never heard of them until when they opened for the stones.

Whitesnake is Nothing like Poison!

Have you people ever listened to either band???

Unskinny Bop....Still of the Night...Definately not similar.

Could be the Trews? they rock and I don't think they are busy at that time...


Title: Re: Speculation on Halifax Openers
Post by: Noticeboy on October 12, 2006, 09:25:37 PM
well I hope it's not some local band.. although that will give me another reason to drink $5 watered down draught..haha
I want a name coming to town with.. not just a filler. No offense to any of the local bands.

Sum 41? They're big gnr fans. Aren't they pretty popular up north still? I know all their albums go platinum in Canada.


Title: Re: Speculation on Halifax Openers
Post by: J.J. Cook on October 12, 2006, 09:57:51 PM
I dunno if GNR's audience would accept Sum 41. I have no idea who it could be quite frankly. To the other guy Whitesnake have many similarities to Poison. Yes I have heard both bands. Of course the songs aren't the same. I never said one band ripped off the other I just mean they're two bands in the same genre with a lot of the same fans and the similiar style and image. It's not an insult I'm just saying I don't think Axl likes that kinda stuff.


Title: Re: Speculation on Halifax Openers
Post by: Noticeboy on October 13, 2006, 07:20:03 AM
The only thing similar about Whitesnake and Poison is they both had hits in the 80's.. oh yeah and that there are guys in both bands.
Not sure how old some of you are.. but maybe you should check it out.

SUM 41... I would surely be in the concession area drinking. Bands like those all sound like Wierd Al trying to be serious.... GARBAGE!

Trews


Title: Re: Speculation on Halifax Openers
Post by: Noticeboy on October 14, 2006, 10:14:31 AM
This is Guns n Roses people.. we need a kick ass Rock Band!
The Trews are fine but not for that slot... plus it's a local band that I can go see any other weekend or so it seems.

Post by: 1badapple on October 14, 2006, 10:05:12 PM
doesn't really matter who opens, everyone will bitch and complain that it wasn't the band THEY wanted.

I bet there won't be a fill-in band.

Priestess would be good. I'm not from Canada but I know they are I know they are a great rock and roll band. They probably could handle opening the show myspace.com/priestessband if you havent heard them
