Guns N Roses might play at sweden rockfestival this summer .....

[Sillything]

I was hoping for it to be the Peace & Love festival, hope I can find a hotel down there, I'm gonna freeze my ass of down there if I have to be living in a tent

[Sillything]

Here's to hoping for their own shows too!! not just festivals

[Dr_Sweden]

I also hoping for own Guns shows...Sweden rock is to expensive...bit Danzig also plats so maybe...i want them to play at Scandinavium in G?teborg ...

[--DEA--]

 

I have no words..

[Chuzeville]

Let that be at the Malm? Festivalen between july 23 and august 5. So that I will be there & it'll be free.

dang, this seems kinda legit.. it also says that this could be to be the only gig in scandinavia

[Sillything]

If it's the only show in Scandinavia here's to hoping for one day tickets
Not fun being out in the mudd in the middle of nowhere for three days, if they come there they have to play Down on the Farm

I don't think it will be the only one.

hopefully not, it says so though in the article..

the organizers says they won't comment on bands they haven't released yet but hope to release some big names by the end of the week

The rumour about a date in Helsinki has been around for a week now and the promoter said today that it looks pretty damn good at the moment.

yeah man, aftonbladet are probably guessing or misunderstanding something, maybe there's talk of an exlusive show in sweden and not in scandinavia,we'll se

dang, this seems kinda legit.. it also says that this could be to be the only gig in scandinavia

translate. now. you Scandinavian fuck.

other then what i've already said it also says that it's supposed to be a part of a festival tour for the band, more than half of the article is about the biting a guard in the leg incident from sthlm 2006,

about the paper though, it's pretty shitty often filled with bullshit rumors, it's the paper that says it'll be the only gig in scandinavia and they don't even say they have any source for it

what IMO makes it look kinda legit is
A: sweden rock festival is the biggest rock festival in Sweden, they've had aerosmith, alice cooper, black sabbath, deep purple, judas priest, motley crue, twisted sister, heaven and hell, mot?rhead, poison, zz topp as headliners among others
B: the guy from SRF that are talking with the paper are not denying it and are also saying that they are hoping to release some big bands by the end of the week
C: there's been rumours about festivals trying to get GN'R, SRF would be very likely since they haven't announced any headliner yet

[Nytunz]

Only in Scandinavia? Naa.. i dont think so.. Norwegian booking agents have been in contact
with GNR, and there is strong rumors saying that they will play both Bergen and Stavanger.. Ill keep my fingers crossed 

[norway]

and there is strong rumors saying that they will play both Bergen and Stavanger..

Haha, same old festival-guys trying to get their arrangements known I bet ya!

Lets hope they play here tho and fingers crossed for Sweden.

[Funkadelic]

Fuck yes! I'm going

[Nighteyes]

This would be great!! It would help and get more people in to the new lineup. Atleast I hope so, many of the visitors at SRF are of the older school I think..

But I really hope that it's not the only show in Sweden..because if it is I won't be able to see the
So I hope that part of the rumor is false!!
Here's to one show in Stockholm aswell 

[CheapJon]

this is no rumor anymore!!!!!!!!!1

I know whats going to happen.......

They will announce UK dates in the middle of July, just when my kid is due.  This will mean I probably wont be able to go as I will be on standby.  Bugger.
