Who should open for GN'R on the North American tour?

[You Gonna Eat That?]

AFI would be a good idea I reckon. But given how much you guys hated Bullet For My Vallentine, or "emo", then maybe not.

[deep pocketz]

Shania Twain would be amazing. Plus, she is pretty big in the USA right?
Anyway, A7X and BFMV were terrible. It was some Heavy-Metal noise. Please, NEVER tour again with a metal band. This "music" is just noise.

is this a serious comment?

Who cares she's hot

[deep pocketz]

Audio Slave would be a good fit.

AFI is one million times worse than Bullet for My Valentine. BFMV at least has shreds of metal...AFI is pure screamo crap. Their lead singer, Davey Havoc...just looking at him makes me want to kill myself, that's how terribly emo he is.

If I could chose any opener, I would want Avenged Sevenfold. I dissmissed this band as emo crap until I actually heard the new CD, City of Evil, and it truly opened my eyes to how talented they are. And while they may look like Good Charolette, don't judge a book by its cover, these guys are pure heavy metal/hard rock.

That's my 2 cents

i wouldnt mind either Sebastian Bach, Billy Talent or Coheed & Cambria

[kyrie]

Billy Talent would be cool.
A7X has earned a spot if they're available. I don't really like em but a lot of younger ppl do and they've been pretty cool in interviews hyping up GNR.

Something that might be cool would be Army of Anyone. Their first album is due out soon, it's basically STP with Richard Patrick of Filter singing. Not as good as Filter or STP but still could be a cool opener. And it'd be kind of funny given VR having Weiland.

sebastian bach

[ROSE22]

i gotta be honest, i kind of like that idea. 

[Minneapolisnewsman]

I think it maybe Avenged Sevenfold, as they have no dates scheduled after the Inland Invasion.

i'm probably the only person here that would say this, but i liked bullet for my valentine, what little bit of them i saw.


don't know much about avenged sevenfold, other then i hate that bat country song.

[ShotgunBlues1978]

Either Sebastian Bach or Buckcherry

[TOPGUNner]

Either Sebastian Bach or Buckcherry

I've seen Buckcherry live before, they're alright. The problem with them is, people don't seem to know a lot of their good catalog music and just expect them to play "The Cocaine Song" over and over. But they're pretty good.

As for Avenged Sevenfold, I noticed that too, that they don't have anything planned for October...I'm hoping they'll go a Halloween show in NYC, but hoping on the Night Train with GNR is just as good

And I've bought a ticket for the Brixton show.

I just saw Buckcherry in Rochester, and you are 100% right, nobody knows their good shit, they just know Lit Up and Crazy Bitch and just want to hear those songs. I almost beat the shit out of one guy for repeatedly yelling crazy bitch until the song was played...

but Buckcherry would be a kick ass band to open for GNR, either that or Baz

also, a NYC show on Halloween would kick ass, would be hard as hell to get tickets though
