yesterday it was in talks and now confirmed?
Yeah, one of the articles said "confirmed" and the other said "believed to be in talks"(rumored). That's why I posted them both. I'm going with the latter.

Well I've bought a ticket for the weekend, should be good for the other bands even if GNR don't turn up.
Kind of frustrates me though how you have to second guess which festivals bands might turn up to before you buy tickets. Demand for concerts like Reading is so high you don't have much choice but to get your order in early

It is damn true that charging 150$ for a ticket is a total ripp-off.
Bands that do are:
Ac-Dc
Aerosmith
Metallica
so on
At least GnR was 75$ AND thay had 6 hours of non stop rock concert, and strippers....
Wich is WAY better than any other acts mentioned.
Britney Spears is charging 150$ too...
I can't beleive people are buying 150$ tickets to go see Britney SPears.....
Metallica was $75. for great seats, ticketbastard fees included.

This is largely due to the toutscum that buy loads of tickets purely to sell them for profit on ebay.

I paid $200 a seat for front row tickets to see Bucket on New Years Eve and about mid show everyone rushed to the front and blocked my view, what are the chances of that? Definately ticked me off

I'm heading overseas to Belgium & Graspop festival, doubt GNR will be there but it would be nice
Think download is a no-no, Motley are there though

Maiden and GnR at the same show - now that would be something. They won't have played together since Donnington 88 (could a better festival line-up be imagined?) - in fact I remember seeing an interview with Axl from that festival when he said he wasn't keen on Maiden because he thought they were using their music to push a political message; anyone know what that's about?
The other bands rumoured don't do much for me, but Maiden and Guns.... wow.

I remember seeing an interview where he said something along the lines of he hoped Guns didn't become like Maiden... but he did not elaborate much, don't recall any political sub text though. IF (big if) they did a show together, wonder who would headline. If it was UK Guns would probably have to defer to Maiden so I can't see it happening myself -
Saw Maiden last year - Bruce Dickinson - " this song is called Revelations" Crowd - "Motherfuckers!!"

I've been kinda tempted by this too, have a few mates already going. A guns confirmation would definitely tip me over the edge
