are gnr still set to play rock n rio 4?

[CVBTank]

In my opinion Axl should not play this gig unless he is ready to release his album. These short lived buzzes just lead to more bad press and more shattered hopes.

[littleredcorvette]

The MAIN Lisboa site still carries the stories about their confirmation.

Does anyone know HOW or WHEN we can get tickets and all that business??

[DemocracyRose]

Maybe Axl cant get C.D done in time for the RIR4!!! No, seriously i believe we will see Axl runing around on stage in the new year....

[Chief]

yes they are according to this:

[EM]

Confirmed by organizers, the Rock in Rio performance is Spears' only currently scheduled international booking, but will likely be part of a bigger itinerary. As previously reported, Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Sting, Alejandro Sanz and Slipknot are among the other acts slated to perform during the massive May 29-30 and June 3-6 event at the Bela Vista Parque in Lisbon.

 that's what it says at http://www.billboard.com/bb/daily/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=2058313

I said I think you know where you live...
hey guys, I am planning to head to Rock in Rio @ Lisbon 2004; I am a big fan of Guns and Roses, as I grew up with them. I am 27 and when I was 16 I went to their concert back in 1993 in Modena, Italy. Great Show.
By the way I know how Axl could cancel a show in a second so I wonder why any official confirmation is on the official site? I'd hate being stuck in the crowd for evanescene or whatelse...So could someone update me about this matter?
Thanks

[just_one]

this is BS

their name is still on the main page (portuguese , english and spanish one!!)

[Cristina]

On monday or tuesday Medina was on tv talking about the children's program RIR funds, and he mentioned Guns N' Roses (it was the second name he mentioned, after Sting, I think)

That was on the news - Telejornal RTP1 (channel)

[MeanBone]

***** Tem muita gente enviando email preocupada com a sa?da do Buckethead guitarrista do Guns n?Roses? Eu n?o tenho a menor preocupa??o com isso, pois sei que no showbiz ? assim, sai um entra outro? O movimento da vida ? assim, ningu?m ? insubstitu?vel, afinal quem bota a cara para a cr?tica ? o Axl? *****

to sum it up, they say they've been gettin lots of emails with people concerned about buckethead leaving the band, but Rock In Rio isn't worried at all with his departure since no one is irreplaceable and that's just how life is.

apparently that doesn't affect their presencie since nothing was mentioned that could possible forsee a change in plans. BH is Gone, but The Show Must Go on!

i guess that puts to rest whatever the hell MTV brasil was saying.

[kockstar99]

Who gives a shit if hes there or not... the band doesnt revolve around buckethead.... at least RIR said something about it....thanks for posting that...

[rocktar81]

well...maybe buckeathead departure is a good thing after all? Ok he was very good technically, lots of skills, but he brang a very, very bad image to the band.
I hope RICHARD FORTUS is going to have a more important part in the band. This guy could be a huge Star in the future. Richard has a huge potencial.

[Death Cube K]

Richard has a huge potencial.

Yes, he's got so much potential because he can move like a rock star on stage.

Ah, did you read the contents of the news article
a) it's a rumor
and b) the rumor's already been posted here.

Besides, anyone concerned with Gn'R appearing at RIR4 should read the "Rock in Rio 4 talks about BH's Departure" thread.

[Dont Try Me]

that's not confirmed you dick...... a rumour.....
