G2R are great if anyone hasn't seen them yet. I saw them in Liverpool a few years ago (the first time they played Mathew St), and enjoyed a beer or 2 with 'Axl' in the Crown later that night. I was shitfaced at night, but I was sober when they played and they put on a good show

so before we all rush out and get tickets for this can anyone confrim its real? and no just a g2r gig?

[cyllan]

Just got off the phone with a member of staff at Madame Jo Jo's who, in response to my question whether or not CD would be played, said in a rather shocked voice, "Er, how did you know?"  Apparently, it's not been confirmed and is all supposed to be hush hush at the moment.  They're expecting to have confirmation later this afternoon.  If you want to get tickets from Ticketweb, act quickly because he said they've jumped the gun in selling them so early.

It is real dude. G2R are already huge and don't need to blag fans to shows with such underhanded tactics.
This was only confirmed last night.

If it helps it is well documented that G2R have always supported Chinese Democracy and New GNR.
The singer was even vip on the GNR 2006 tour and has had numerous relations with Axl and other members of GNR for years.
I'm pretty sure this is 100% official

lol im sure that is skelly in the avatar.

[COLDHEARTBREAKER]

it is. they've been engaged since last year. That pic was from a photoshoot in the Sunday Observer magazine in 2007

Just pop in to the club and the guy said pretty much the same that at the moment they are 90% sure that they will be holding the party but it has not yet been confirmed and probably wnt be until later on today.

[COLDHEARTBREAKER]

Guns 2 Roses have just announced that BBC Radio will be interviewing them tomorrow regarding the whole thing. Promoter Perry Stevens of Paradise City has also confirmed it. The venue Madame Jo Jo's is just the hosting venue.

It's so sad see growned people dressed as Axl or Slash.

Can you just play the music?

They're actors dude. They celebrate GNR and have been keeping the GNR memory alive for years as a result have gained the respect of members of GNR and are famous in their own right for doing so.

If it bothers you that much, when you go there just shut your eyes.

[jarmo]

Unlike many other parties, you have to pay to get in. And it's still a concert with the album as a bonus....

dammit.  I've been looking forward to and hoping something like this would come up and I dont think I can go on Thurs eve.  still - as the album is only a few DAYS away, I know i can survive...  But i would have liked to meet people from here that are going.  Will post if I can make it, but its unlikely

Sincerely I don't care they're famous in what they do. Britney Spears is famous in what she do and is, maybe, the worst thing in Earth (musically speaking).

I don't need to shut my eyes because I wouldn't never go at some party like this, I hate tribute bands...although, this isn't a tribute band this is a "want-to-be-like" band

But I don't get surprised anymore with this parties and tributes band and all that stuff, since Dizzy are playing here in Argentina this weekend with a band WHICH PLAYS VELVET REVOLVER'S SONGS, I don't get surprised for anything...

Yes unfortunately thats right however this was a concert and a club event with the door charge prior to Guns 2 Roses and Chinese Democracy even being booked.
There are 3 other bands & strippers playing also.
G2'R kinda invaded the event 2 weeks ago in order to get more promotion for Chinese Democracy in London. It was not our decision to charge for the event.
Originally we were going to perform a selection of the new tracks with the classics thrown in but with the album now being previewed that makes it even better for the fans.

[cyllan]

g2r, do you know whether the album will be played straight through or broken up into segments throughout the evening?

[g2r_Axl]

segmants i've been told dude. in between each band

That kinda sucks.



I'm glad fans have the chance to hear it legally before the release and share the experience with other fans.

I'm just a bit curious about why the album doesn't deserve its own party in a place like London... You know, where it's the main act so to speak.


But still, I guess this is better than nothing.
