GN'R @ Download festival!

[Nytunz]

No no no! I love Slash! Never done anything to me.. But he did mention a release in March.. and it could be a "tiny" joke, and turn out to be GH2 ..


But lets back to the topic!
If AC/DC, METALLICA, GNR turned out to play at the download festival. How big do you think this would?
 3 of the biggest rock/metal band in history! I would buy tickets right away

"The Admin for the official Queen message board has made a few posts regarding GN?R activity this year.... Regarding Download Festival [1], he wrote:

"I hear from a good source...the three headliners are...mindblowing if you ask me. Metallica AC/DC Guns N? Roses - (Axl and Friends)"

Then when I asked him whether he has heard about Rock In Rio-Lisbon this year he replied... "Nope, but outdoor shows seem the way they are going. I have a friend who used to work for Guns and" she said Greatest Hits 2 is due in March/April, then finally the new album."

[HoldenCaulfield]

Sounds good, but the GH2 part sucks. They didn't have two albums worth of hits!

it means old and new, with brian may and moby and shaq plus AA as the opening act!

I was standing in a shop about an hour ago. There was this loud big haired person talking very loudly, he came across as a know it all type. He comfirmed to the entire shop that he was going to the Download festival, Metallica were going to be there and Guns N'Roses were headlining according to management, although they (GNR) may not turn up as Axl Rose is temperamental and likes to walk off stage half ay through sets.

so funny to hear

I know we arent going to hear that stuff, but I really hope that someday we get to hear EVERYTHING that went into the making of CD- Navarro, Shaq, Zakk Wylde, Moby etc....

FYI, I pm'd him on the queen board directly.

I'd say don't take everything he said as gospel and we'll leave it at that.

And according to Martin from Velvet-Revolver.com in the latest Kerrang! issue there are "hints" towards GnR:

In the new issue of Kerrang there is a lot about Download festival.

In the contents page where it lists the confirmed acts and tells you which page to read about em, there is a phrase next to each one......

and all of them are GNR song titles.? This seems like the biggest hint ever.? I am contacting my sources at the moment to try and establish some fact.?

Is this edition of Kerrang! out now?

+ some examples?   

[Judge Dredd]

^ In the inside cover, where they have pics of all the 'artistes' in the edition, there is the name of a Guns track above each one, 'Pretty Tied Up', 'Estranged', and 'One In A Million'.

There is no other mention of Guns in the mag...

How many people will be at Download?  Looking at Halfin's pictures of VR at Download last year, it looks like 100K or so??

I believe it is 80,000.

[Backslash]

I think it's more important at the moment to focus on the "exclusive" part... like in the UK tour thread, this tells us that a UK tour can't happen if GNR are at Download.  It's almost a confirmation.   

[Markus Asraelius]

That's cool. I can't wait.

[S.P.I.K.E.]

Good or bad? Ppersonally i think its gonna be great.... im gonna be getting pretty warm down there. I have visions of a bootleg appearing and it just shows me basically dead near the front. I guess i will be taking alot of water.

[S.P.I.K.E.]

well i kinda hope GNR will start on time this year though 

[Thorazine Shuffle]

Axl was really into Prodigy in the 90s.  FIRESTARTA.

[S.P.I.K.E.]

im sure it will all be finnnne...
