Hey All,

I live in the Pacific Northwest of the US, and I am sitting here wondering if I might be getting to see my favorite band play anywhere near me, anytime soon.

I don't have a ton of money, so flying out to see them at one of the current tour stops is probably out for me, as much as I may want to.

What do you think are the chances of them adding any US tour dates?

My gut feeling says it's pretty damn likely. I decided not to fly to a Canadian show and hold off to possibly see multiple US shows....I hope I'm right!!! haha.

Lots of issues to be worked out there with promoters I would think. Recent track record of completing US tours hasn't been good. Also, I don't think US venues are real big on the late start times.

And I'm as sure as I can be that they will tour the states. When I look back at 06, they were doing Europe (I believe) and I had to struggle with "Fly over or wait". Well, I waited and to my luck they played two SF shows, tons of LA shows and even came back to the bay later. Point is, don't beat yourself over for not going to the Canadian shows. Once they get rolling, I am sure we will hear of some shows here.  beer

I'm blessed with a show within 2 hours driving distance from me to I'll probably be going to London ONT for sure. Even if a US date near me is announced before that, I'll go ahead and head to the great white north to catch the tour early.

If there is a US tour, I'd LOVE for GN'R to swing through or around Detroit in the summer! I've never had the pleasure of seeing GN'R in the summer!

I think Axl likes the winter, haha. In '93 I saw them in March. In '02 I saw them in November, and in '06 in September and December.

Maybe it's because in Europe GN'R gets bigger audience and can play stadium shows, so they play Europe in the summer time. In the US they play arenas anyway, so they can do it in the winter..

Next time GN'R comes back home to L.A. we will party. Can't wait. Unless Axl decides to stop touring for awhile to get us a new album ASAP... then I could wait. But anytime the dude of dudes want's to rock L.A. again I will always be there on California's finest greens ready to rock out to GN'R.

Ya really, luckly for me I havn't moved to BC yet....GNR LIVE 2010.......a time to be happy to be living in Ontario !!

I guess the incident in Vancouver still looms, can't see what else would stop them from playing there? That sucks.

It would be nice to see them do a some dates in the US after Canada in February.  That is what I am hoping for.  It might make logistical sense if they plan on touring more after Canada.  Maybe the US then Mexico, etc.  Then they could do some cool festivals in Europe in the Summer.  But who knows...  Would love to see them play anywhere.

They should be there in January

but nooooo

they want to go freeze their butts off in Canada.   hihi

We'll see who's bitching in January.  Irv will probably get fired if Axl spends another two hours trying to get through the snow to the show.

Could have been playing in the nice, warm sun down south.

It gives them the opportunity to add some winter to their wardrobe lol...besides Ron already has the perfect hat, you know the fuzzy one he sometimes wears ok.  I'm sure they will eventually make it your way to warm up in the nicer weather.

Um, were you in a  coma for the 2006 American tour?

Good point.  Gives me just a sliver of hope that I might be able to see them in St. Louis next year!
