[Nightfall]

yes, very cool, I wish they'd come to The Netherlands? tho

Yeah it's too bad that none of the really big festivals are happening this year, well except for Waldrock. I sent the promoters an email requesting details about the line up but they won't say anything until they have like 85% of the bands are confirmed?

[Gaymo, the Hobbit]

[Hammy]

Because despite all the haters they ARE a good Pop/Rock band.

As the gig may be cancelled because Wembley Stadium may not be finished...

[Elrothiel]

*sniggle* Bon Jovi... you're going to see BON JOVI INSTEAD OF GUNS N' FUCKIN' ROSES!!!!??

Oh dear. Oh dear dear dear. *kicks nuts*

Sorry. But that had to be done.

Cancel that fuckin' fake pop band gig, cancel the hotel, and take your GF and family TO DOWNLOAD!!!

And it looks like you'll have to anyway... look at what Judge Dredd said!!

I feel for you! I'm a massive Bon Jovi fan and hope they come to Australia. I'd take GNR over Bon Jovi cos I've never seen Axl and it's my lifes dream. But if you already have the ticket, I think there will be other chances to see GNR 

Bon Jovi were the last gig at the old Wembley and will the first at the new.. very cool 

[Danieljones343]

I also have tickets for BonJovi but am going to sell them now! No way am I missing my first ever oppertunity to see GNF'R's! My mate will be gutted he'll be going to wembley on his own but what can you do!

Any1 wanna go with him ? lol

Guns N' Roses make UK return
Festival appearance confirmed
Guns n' Roses have been confirmed to headline the Download 2006 festival.

The band will join the already announced Metallica at the top of the bill for the summer event, which is set to take place at Donington Park between June 9-11.

The festival will provide the only UK shows for the two bands.

Guns n' Roses will take to the stage on the Sunday (June 11), while Metallica will play the previous night.

The last time Axl Rose and co graced Donington was in 1988, where they played in front of over 100,000 fans following the release of their seminal album 'Appetite for Destruction'.

Rose said of the appearance: "The UK and Europe have always been special for me. After our last great shows there, we are all very excited and looking forward to getting back over there and in front of such great audiences."

He added: "Donington has always meant a lot to me personally, way before I ever played there. To be asked to headline is for me an honour and a privilege that none of us take for granted. We look forward to seeing all of you at Download!"

Guns n' Roses are expected to showcase new songs from their long-awaited 'Chinese Democracy' album, which has been over ten years in the making.

As well as the two confirmed headliners, the bill for Download 2006 now includes Korn, The Prodigy, Deftones, Clutch, Trivium and Bullet For My Valentine, Lucuna Coil, InMe, Hatebreed and Within Temptation.

For ticket availability go to NME.COM/Gigs.

they don't have to set up stage since holland is a festival. so yeah they can travel that fast...they did it in 2002 with Leeds and Pukkelpop shows, so they can do it now too....hey..if i can travel those 2 countries in 2 days...then surely they will be able to

[blaqktiger]

The Download site now confirms they are closing the show on the Sunday night!

[MeanBone]

Axl atually spoke to NME? awsome! that means he's aware of a tour! And at least he can't say again that the european tour was booked by his manager alone.

But he can say someone's got inner bleeding just like Buckethead. In retrosperspective that was a real big lie!
