It says they are in talks with GN'R and RHCP for some kind of Vegas festival that is supposed to take place sometime in 2009. Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: D on November 10, 2008, 03:30:25 PM HOLY SHIT

Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: grog mug on November 10, 2008, 03:41:23 PM Yeah it would be great, but where would this take place at? I don't think it states that anywhere in the article.
Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: Voodoochild on November 10, 2008, 03:54:46 PM From what the article said, Gilby Clarke is the one who's making contacts with Axl. Wonder if he will manage to do it.
Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: grog mug on November 10, 2008, 03:55:32 PM Yeah we'll see about that. It sounds like it might be outdoors with all these different bands playing...
Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: mrlee on November 10, 2008, 03:57:54 PM Axl liked Peppers back in the day, and they liked him, so i read.
Could happen? Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: NEWportTimbo on November 10, 2008, 04:06:49 PM I live close to Vegas, so count me in!

Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: don_vercetti on November 10, 2008, 04:26:59 PM And buckethead once auditioned for RHCP, long ago.
Would be a fun line up though. I'll bet everyone is trying to get hold of GnR at the moment. Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: LunsJail on November 10, 2008, 04:28:11 PM From what the article said, Gilby Clarke is the one who's making contacts with Axl. Wonder if he will manage to do it. Gilby? I just find that hard to believe. Why wouldn't they just contact GNR management directly the way it's done with all those other bands mentioned? Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: kaasupoltin on November 10, 2008, 04:59:26 PM Well this would be a great reason to go to Las Vegas :P I mean, GN'R and RHCP at the same venue at the same date.
Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: grog mug on November 10, 2008, 05:19:19 PM They need to play though. The 12/29/01 concert at Hard Rock is still the best ever....!

We WERE planning a trip to Vegas in May.... guess we're moving the trip to the July if this is true. Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: cineater on November 10, 2008, 05:43:30 PM I thought the Chili Peppers were done as in broke up, on extended break, that sort of thing.
Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: Jizzo on November 10, 2008, 07:44:14 PM they have been on a break, but they arent broken up.
they could easily do a tour, or a one off festival Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: axl2 on November 10, 2008, 08:04:45 PM Would be pretty amazing to see the RHCP and GNR doing the same show.
Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on November 10, 2008, 08:14:30 PM Hahaha, I turn 21 in July. Hopefully it's in the second half of the month.
Hell, I sound like this has been confirmed. :-[ It would be a pretty good festival to play at. GN'R could appeal to the huge RHCP fanbase and hopefully sell some more records.

Post by: axlrosegnr on November 10, 2008, 08:24:55 PM If there is any truth to this at all, it sure as hell better be indoors........its to fuckin hot here in July. I've been to a couple outdoor festivals here in october, and it was too hot then even. But of course, Gn'R could play in Hell and I'd be the first one lined up to get a ticket :)
Title: Re: GN'R to play vegas with RHCP in 2009....? Post by: Jim Bob on November 10, 2008, 08:25:07 PM There is no way in hell GnR is playing my home city and I miss it. :beer: If its true, see you guys there.

Post by: RancidPunx on November 11, 2008, 01:27:38 AM It is for charity.At this point there is no doubt that RHCP are a bigger touring band than GNR.I would hope something silly like stage order wouldn't prevent these bands helping this charity.

Posted on Tuesday, November 11, 2008 BW&BK scribe Aaron Small personally contacted former GUNS N' ROSES guitarist GILBY CLARKE to inform him of the online rumor that stated Gilby was "using his connections with wildman rocker AXL ROSE to broker" a charity music festival in Las Vegas next summer featuring GN'R, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS and THE ALARM. Gilby's response was, "I don't know anything about it." http://www.bravewords.com/news/100666 |
