South African shows cancelled

[w.axl.rose]

Were the MyCoke concerts sold out?  I went into the tourdates section on GNR.com and there is nothing under the "Tickets" column.  Also, were these the only shows on site all the time?  Were the Australian dates never listed there?

those shows were never listed at the gnr website

Ok.  What about the tickets to the MyCoke Fest?

whether its just s. africa or the whole thing, this is a sorry inexcusable state of affairs at this point---the tour last year did
alot to rehab some of the ugliness and silliness of the past, but when you cancel the final dates of it in order to produce the album, even GIVE a tentative relaese date, and there's very little follow through---then to book a bunch of dates, some very high-profile, and axe them shortly after with delayed notice as to why---god-damn. maybe it is all b/c tommy is hurt....but then if that's true then get it out there asap and dont make statements that the rest of the thing will go on if you're not 100 percent sure. and if you're axing the tour, then get CD out. now. no more crap-it's an insult to the ticketholders for these shows, the promoters, pretty much anyone inolved with this band.

Nick, it has been an insult since they did Rio in 2001 without a record. The whole thing is beyond comprehension....just put a fork in it and move on.

I think we're not getting an update on the site for one of three reasons:


1) The webmaster is stoned (today is 4/20)

2) The webmaster is from Colorado and is busy observing silence in rememberance of Columbine (today is the 8th anniversary)

3) The webmaster is celebrating Hitler's birthday (that is today--this is the most-likely scenario in my opinion)

I just thought about Bumblefoot for a second,


alot of peoples views of him might change now considering hes in gnr,

and I wonder if hes going to speak about this at any more future interviews?

we all know how he can't really keep his mouth shut about sh!t like this....

I have always defended GNR.....ALWAYS......within reason. But I just cannot see anyone being able to defend them at this point. Someone in thier camp has to step up and be a fuckin' man.......if this is true. It seems to be. This is now completely out of line. So who's it gonna be???......Who is gonna stand up and be a fuckin' man over there people?

[sjgotnitro]

Well all I know is my PC is setup to get GNR updates through email when ever they are mentioned.

And there is nothing but 30 bad press items flying around with no statement from the band on there site.

[Danny]

HA!  I found this funny.  On allheadlinenews.com (AHN) there is an article about the cancelled MyCoke dates.  Here's the headline:


Guns N' Roses Reunion Tour Postponed By Bassist's Injury

[Dont Try Me]

This is fucked up for the people who were going to see them. And fucked up for Guns N' Roses. But I don't think Axl would intentionally cancel this all. Just really really really REALLY BAD LUCK I guess. They must feel really bad now I imagine.

Its time for the band and the label to stand hand and hand and gives us an update.

I'm not saying it intentional at all. I have no doubt tommy  hurt himelf, that sucks big time.

I just think it is time to get some info on the cd in light of all the bad press again.

I'm sure someone is keeping on refreshing gunsnroses.com just to be the first with the bad news

(i think that if this wasn't true it would have been shut down already but on the goods, i dunno shit )

[RoCoKiN]

They should announce a release date for the album to off-set this crap!
