Title: A possible opening act contender...
Post by: acompleteunknown on May 21, 2007, 03:40:42 AM
It turns out the band Nazareth is reuniting this summer.

Considering they are a big influence of Axl/GNR, I think they would make an awesome opening act.

Great band but I don't think it would be a great choice for an opening act...

I believe they're playing smaller gigs these days.

Hasn't Sebastian Bach been named opening act already?

Never ever ever thought I'd see East End Park mentioned on a Gnr board! Hope your Dad enjoyed a steak bridie during the gig, hahaha!!!!

I'd like to see somebody like Buckcherry open for Gnr, that would rape!

Biting you would totally rape!  ???  :rofl:

Anyway, the criminally neglected Nazareth would be awesome, in my opinion, but I'm afraid the audience wouldn't know any songs other than Hair of the Dog and Love Hurts, which could hurt the energy.  I think regional openers are a great idea, like they seem to be doing with Rose Tattoo in Australia/NZ.  So, Nazareth for the UK would be a stronger opener than they would be in the US, I think (and much to my own despair!).

if Nazareth opened up, they could jam together on Hair Of The Dog

Well, anything's possible. They did take Suicide Girls last time. On that note, maybe the BurningAngel girls can open up. No pun intended.

Skid Row is also playing Rocklahoma on July 14th the same day that GNR will be in Japan. 

According to Pollstar, Sebastian Bach will be performing at both shows.

I'm still pulling for Mastadon.

Sepultura's in Brazil...they could meet GNR half way in Mexico.

I think Mastodon would be a bad fit for GNR.  Good band...bad fit.

haha..
I'm sure the promoters would love that.
Hey, they probably already were pissed when he took our Sebastian Bach last year.
Now they'll take out some burned out 70s band that probably plays bars & casinos?
Nothing against Nazareth, but talk about a band with literally ZERO drawing power or interest in 2007.

They'd draw me...so that makes their drawing power at least ONE.  ;D

East End Park mentioned on the boards, what next?  GNR to play Broomfield and Cliftonville ::) (heard it from a very reliable source etc.)

Nazareth would be a good choice.

Does GNR really need an strong opening act to draw an audience?

Sebastian Bach isn't in Skid Row?  Since when?  Am I really that out of it?  Fatherhood just kills your musical knowledge.

Bach is out of Skid Row, since 1999.  I'm pretty sure he got kicked out for using all the band's shampoo.
