i think Bullet for My Valentine is just OK. I'm just glad to see them choosing decent (in avenged sevenfold's case, really good) newer bands rather than going the NIN route and picking someone like Foo Fighters or going the 80's rock route and picking someone like Skid Row or whoever. i think that they are smart to bring along bands that have younger fans that would appreciate what GNR is doing. very smart move.

these bands are not rock n roll, emo sucks
and about the GNR song titles as Headlines on the Avenged 7 magazine covers
this is not some magazines choice only
it would quite a coincidence if every magazine chose to do this at the same time
it is planned PR

you have no idea what "emo" is if you think Avenged Sevenfold is "emo". don't post about things that you are obviously ingnorant about. |

for the most part i agree with you. however to lump avenged sevenfold in with that is ridiculous. they sound nothing like all the other radio emo screamo kiddie bullshit going on these days. they sound nothing like hawthorne heights, fallout boy etc. at all. not even similar. do your homework and don't judge a band just cause they share the same fanbase as some crappy bands do. remember at one time GNR and Poison shared some fans as well.

i don't know if this has been posted before but, this came as a rumour a little while back and everyone thought it was just another rumour. everybit of lies has a little truth to it. i for one am happy as hell and hope they come to the states too. gnr is my fav band and a7x is my fav new band. you all should check out some of thier stuff. and the band logo is VERY similar to axl=a7x. they are worth checkin out.
this better be the damn year!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah same here........I just hate the whole "rock" scene as it is today. Nothing I've heard from Avenged Sevenfold has impressed me.

I've said this before and I'll say this again: A7X is a great band!! Their 'Waking the Fallen' is amazing!! They also have a lot of energy on stage!! Another plus: they like GN'R & Axl!! I'm thinking of going to Paris just to see this happening ?  |

Even though I've voiced my dislike for the band, I'll give Axl credit for choosing them as an opening act....Avenged Sevenfold has really garnered a lot of Gnr-esque comparisons (in magazines and even on Bam Margera's radio show he's constantly comparing them)....They appear to be pretty popular among the younger folks so Axl has chosen wisely. A way to rope in the young kids who might not be hip onto the GNR scene (did i just say hip, am I fucking 80?).

Are they a better opener than CKY and Mix Master Mike? Yes. And that's all that matters. A lot of good bands have mediocre or even down right shitty openers, something I've personally learned to live with by now. Just makes the main attraction even more desirable.  |

i think A7x are boring as a fuck, but they do like Axl so they're not just another crappy band that got to tour with GN'R.
music aside, they seem quite cool actually, always speaking highly of Gn'R.
i just think their music sucks. at least the vocals aren't doing anything for me...

at least the last few people posting on this thread that don't like the band haven't really given reasons as to why they think they suck (other than the non descript mention of the vocals). that beats people saying they are "emo" i guess...

Uhm yeah but their last album was #30 on Billboard........and their single "Bat Country" peaked at #2 on the Mainstream rock charts........so I'm quite sure many, many people have heard of them. |
