GN'R to play Sweden Rock Festival - June 12 (announced on festival's site Feb 1

[svdv22]

And so it begins...

[Sillything]

I need one-day ticket for this!! That way I don't have to see 100 bands I don't like and can afford to travel to more Guns shows in Europe!!
If it's only festivaldates in Europe, well I'm off to the bank, taking a hughe loan

Anyhow, beers and listening to Guns live is tha thing to do this summer

I call "Down on the farm" for this one

I think it?s a good thing to do festivals since this line up is on fire and are going to win a lot of people over. Being a hardcore fan hoping for long sets and their own amazing stage set up I hope they combine this tour with arenas or comeback a bit later on for arenas only

[kaasupoltin]

Sounds good! But it wasn't a surprise. Great to hear it confirmed anyway!

[Sandrine]

Guns in Europe in June, this is a great news ! There was a rumor in France (end of june) so maybe it could be true.

Anyway, Good news  

[kaasupoltin]

Guns in Europe in June, this is a great news ! There was a rumor in France (end of june) so maybe it could be true.

And Finland 5th of June. So I think they'll be starting from the north

[gnrjanus]

let's hope they don't do a festival tour...
they should do indoors like in canada and japan etc......

It would suck to see guns go on at 11 and go of at 12:30
or sooner for that matter for some country's

That date would mean festival wise, Download in the UK is a high possibility. Kinda dont want this to happen (hoping for arena tour) but imagine AC/DC, GN'R headlining, would be THE festival to be at in the UK this year.

[Limulus]

^^2006 they did full sets no matter which festival in europe. actually they even played shorter on some "headliner" shows like in Holland'06 ("only" ~120min).

i agree though that i'd prefer some more indoor headliner shows (multiple in each country) this time aswell instead of like 1-2 shows/one country.
its their decision off course.

I just hope they won't play Rock am Ring in Germany. Those fuckers are charging 250? by now.

Sweden Rock Festival charge about the same so...

[Nytunz]

I'm thinking that Hard Rock Calling at Hyde Park on the 27th or 28th is more likely at this point.

Just a little note, no idea if it means anything, but Download takes place on the same weekend as Sweden Rock.

Hi Jarmo

Does it say what day they're playing Sweden Rock Festival? Cos AC/DC are playing Friday of Download, so that only leaves Sat and Sun slots free at Download, and if Sweden is just Sat and Sun I would think that makes it unlikely they will play Download.

Hyde Park in London would be cool though...

[jarmo]

No, they didn't announce the date yet.

I guess the festival's schedule isn't finalized.

well, if they dont play download im hoping for the sunday of hard rock calling purley for selfish reasons, i would get to see pearl jam on the friday, go t  a wedding on the sat then gn'r on sunday. ideally downkoad tho.
