GN'R coming to Europe? (was: GNR comming to Glasgow)

[estranged.1098]

That's strange - usually by now someone ha smanaged to dismiss this. I guess not even our sleuths can be bothered to disprove this nonsense

There is no way there is a tour in the works - surely Tommy or Dizzy or Lizzy or Vader or whoever the fuck is left in the band would have been aware of it - half of them are already on tour somewhere - doesn't strike me as the behaviour of people about to hit a European tour - don't they need rehersal time?

I'm afriad endless disappointments have made me rather cynical to rumours, and as rumours go this isn't particularily convincing

I think endless disappointments have made a rather bitter and negative person.

Tommy's tour ends in September 10, this rumoured tour is Dec/Jan. Unless a band member announces tour dates for November, they would have enough time to get things prepared.

Isn't this the same poster that started a thread (immediately locked by Jarmo), saying that the guy whos serves him breakfast told him that the original GNR had accepted a $30m cheque to reunite!??

Yes, so why is this thread getting so much attention? 

This info might fit in with what Jarmo's heard,  but the chances of the poster of this thread having 2 ppl  give him inside info in GnR in the space of 2 weeks is unfathomable.

Izzy,
   I've got some emails out, but it IS the weekend.   If the rumor is complete BS, I'll get a firm "No",  if there's some truth to the rumor at all, I'll prolly get something along the lines of a "No comment".  Hopefully, I'll hear more by Monday.

If Axl wants everybody back in January.....then a tour would not start until Februrary of March.

There gonna need to learn how to play all the new songs they will likely debut on tour.  I'm sure none of them remember how to play any of the many new songs after Axl has tinkered with them for years.

I don't a true musician or a talented one will forget how to play. I am sure Axl has tinkered with with for the Album but they still had to play the parts for the album. With his talented Guns I doubt they would forget.

To be fair, having doubts is understandable.

However, it actually seems that the doubters are the ones clutching at straws with their reasoning this time.

Admit it, no one has found a half decent reason why a tour couldn't start around this time.

We should all keep trying tho, it's our job to weed out any false hopes.

Is it time to rally the wagons and get the street team rolling?

Is it time to rally the wagons and get the street team rolling?

I think for the average band, the street team idea is kind of cool. But for G N' R... I think that if Axl wanted any of my input or assistance, he would have kept me informed on the situation or at least threw me an ask for help. But best to you who choose to street-team the prospect of a new record. I think you will be well received as G N' R still has quite a bit of respect for what they were 'back in the day'.

P.S. I hope that all you Europeans get to finally to see G N' R on a proper tour of your countries. I was one of the lucky ones to see them in 2002 here in London, Ontario, Canada and it was one of the best nights of my life.

grabaraxl knows his shit. he has loads of friends who are top at record labels and promoters...? he has his info and I've been personal friend of his for a long time. That's all I can say.

Big deal,I have friends in record labels but I don't go around bragging about it,and besides no one who is not W.Axl Rose or his managment doesn't know shit about what's going on with GN'R.

[Layne420]

Best thing to do is get notify by pollstar website for guns n roses tour dates they are pretty good with what is going on 

[iMac]

I guess the only thing that could cause a problem is brain (and possibly buckethead). I'm sure CCBBB will want to do a bit of touring when their new album comes out.

Rumourboard Admin strikes again!

Here is what he says about the possible Spain dates :

"Two dates, Madrid and Barcelona, I will check further on this. "

[pilferk]

 As I said above, I sent off a couple of emails to some friends of mine who might have info on any possible Euro tour goings on. Got this response from a friend of mine via email:

Nothing definitive yet.



That's it.? His entire response.? I sent him back an email asking if that means something is in the works but is not finalized, or if he means they he hasn't heard anything at all, beyond the same rumors we're hearing.? I'll let the speculation begin until I hear back something (hopefully something more concrete) more from him.


Edit: got a response back from him.  It says:

"In the Works, but Very Very early in the process.  Nothing is final or definitive.  Everything is tentative.  Whole thing could tumble like a house of cards or not. Go ahead and share since there is not much to share."

[loretian]

Cool, thanks for the info, pilferk.   Yet one more source that points towards end of the year happenings.

[Will]

Always the same countries though: Spain, Germany and the UK. (well, there was Belgium in 2002). I wonder if they'll tour other countries in "Europe".

[jarmo]

I was told that GN'R have been looking for two kinds of venues. Both arenas and clubs/theatres are being looked into.

I can't tell you the names of the venues or the city/country (for obvious reasons).


Just like in 2003 there were rumors of an European tour and nothing happened. So we'll have to see what happens.

[Almost Famous]

Either way, it's starting to feel like we're getting closer.

Pilferk's comments (as well as yours Jarmo) are reassuring in that at least that void of communication between the real world and the GN'R camp seems to have been bridged long enough to cause a stir. Someone's seems to be laying the groundwork for something.

It's all cool in my books right now. Dude.

[ccorn69]

hopefully it doesnt tumble like a house of cards, im crossing my fingers that it doesnt thanks for the info Pilferk

peace

Thanx for the info, Pilferk and Jarmo

Yeah it's great, it means they sell out as fast as hell.
