FALSE: Stinson to tour with soul asylum starting in april according to billboard

[axlroses]

Edit: Tommy is in GN'R and will tour with them later this year. /jarmo

In a billboard article from today it states that tommy will be playing with soul asylum starting in april and continue until august.? This still could mean nothing if none of the dates conflict.? Just thought it was interesting.?

[nesquick]

he will be touring in july too, at the same time of GNR gigs...

[Thorazine Shuffle]

from what i've seen of both SA and GNRs' tours, the only conflict would be July 2nd.  Both SA and GNR have shows then.  Otherwise he can theoretically do both.

I saw this article that said the Soul Asylum gigs in April would be his last for them and that he is still in Guns...I think I saw that over at sp1at.

There you go, God has spoken. Ah, we are so blessed.

Always good to see tommy staying active, plenty of time for both SA and Axl if he sees fit.

Here is my post from the Splat board on this topic...

1. Sounds like Tommy is on the SA album...not just touring. However, Billboard said nothing about his Gnr status. My guess is they didn't even look in to it. They are as reputable as you are going to get in music journalism. It is a professional music industry site. The Star Tribune will be extremely accurate in reporting anything Tommy or Mats related. I would be willing to bet they s/w Tommy and confirmed he was still "Gunning".

2. It makes absolutely no sense in the world for Tommy to leave Gnr for SA right now. Most likely, Axl has two albums in the can and Tommy plays on ALL of it...not just one or two songs. SA will never ever ever ever come close to making the money that Gnr will-both records and touring. Tommy will get rich with Gnr, even if only two albums and a few tours are done. SA will barely pay the bills. Tommy is most likely keeping this alive as a back up in case the Gnr thing implodes. Smart from a career standpoint.

3. If Slash/Duff were coming back to Gnr it would have been billed as a reunion tour BEFORE signing show contracts. The amount of money Axl would have asked for would have been alot more. He would have used the reunion as a bargaining tool.

In the end, Tommy, like Slash, is rock and roll to the bone. He can pull off two tours....guaranteed.

What the fuck do I know, but...

Wouldn't it be nice if somebody from the GnR camp would give us an update? I'm sick of speculating. Nothing adds up anymore. Tommy is going to be totally burnt out if he does both bands' gigs all summer.

I've been trading emails with someone who wishes to not be directly quoted, but helps run a club SA will be appearing at soon & they said that Tommy Stinson is still very much under contract with GNR & they expect him to be at all the GNR shows this summer. Also was told that a bassist by the name of John Fields will be playing with SA when Tommy is with GNR. Seems like he'll be in Europe with GNR this summer then.

Sometimes i feel like the only one without a secret source

As Mysteron said weeks ago - Tommy will only be playing SA gigs when his schedule allows.

[axlroses]

So does that mean when there are conflicts he won't be playing the gnr shows?  I doubt that.

[pilferk]

So does that mean when there are conflicts he won't be playing the gnr shows?? I doubt that.

I think Gigger mistyped...in fact, I'd bet on it:

Mysteron said Tommy will only be playing SA gigs when his schedule allows.

That makes more sense.

Indeed I did. I'll edit it.

Thanks for that Pilferk - must try and stop doing things in such a hurry.

Tommy Stinson will be touring with Guns N'Roses in 2006, and will only do Soul Asylum dates when he can. Sanctuary tell us he is  "helping out old friends", but only when it is possible.

Michael Bland has confirmed to us that John Fields is being looked at as a possible replacement for Tommy when he is not able to perform with Soul Asylum, but he is not a confirmed replacement (pardon the pun).
