Title: Guns n? Roses Planning Summer Stadium Tour Post by: jarmo on March 04, 2009, 07:09:23 PM Axl Rose intends to follow last November?s release of Chinese Democracy with a worldwide Guns n? Roses stadium tour this summer, according to industry insiders. If it comes to pass, the tour would mark the first U.S. stadium dates for the current line-up of Guns ? their 2002 and 2006-?07 tours were arena outings, with some overseas stadium shows. (And contrary to one persistent online rumor, the band has absolutely no plans of playing Spain?s Kobetasonik Festival this June.)
Meanwhile, Guns? manager, Irving Azoff, tells Rolling Stone that the band has big plans for this year. ?Axl has been basically quiet, keeping out of the limelight for almost 15 years. People think they know him but they only really only know what has been said about him by questionable people,? Azoff says. ?He is a good guy and often misunderstood ? he is a professional who has worked very hard to build and maintain a high creative standard for Guns n? Roses, which I support. We have some exciting things in the works this year for Gn?R, I?m looking forward to it.?
