GnR is third headliner, together with Aerosmith and Kiss

Slash is also playing at the festival (also Stone Temple Pilots)!

But I thought doubts were being cast on the reliability of that poster in another topic?

[Reckless Rose]

I've checked several news sites now. Most of these sources say 'Graspop confirms Guns as third headliner', but all of them reported this on or around April 20th. In my opinion that should hold back our enthusiasm, since later news by Dutch concert organizer Mojo and the reliability of that poster tell a different story.

I've considered buying tickets, but lets be honest: Few would want to be stuck with a handful of tickets without the prospect of a Guns N' Roses show.

Until it's on www.graspop.be, don't buy any tickets.

Was indeed just about to add that: In all other cases we at least had one party claiming Guns would come. Now we have none.

The poster may be an early revision that the Russian promoter jumped the gun on - likely they needed to print something out as their shows were official. That doesn't mean the dates are wrong, some may be, some may be correct - just wait and see.

That tour poster is fucking sick though!

I have already emailed Graspop several days ago if there is any new on Guns being the possible third headliner, but of course no response.

It's a rumor...but a big possibility that it will be confirmed.

Is it also forbidden to go to the festival to check out the other bands?

If u want to see Guns N Roses on the festival.. i guess u knew it was only a good advise for not getting fooled.!

Anyway, hope they can make it.

I don't care about other bands, I want GUNS N' ROSES!!

You know why? Because they will anounce the third headliner by the end of this month. Be patient during the next 3 days.

Yes, spot on 

We're glad you got the point

Great now I can see GNR being BOOED all throughout the concert again 

I will never ever see GNR in Belgium again. Worst crowd ever ! ! They ruined the experience of what otherwise was an amazing performance by the band with finck.

G N' R didn't get booed during their 1993 show at Werchter.

Err.. I was talking about 2006.

I was there and didn't hear 'booing'... maybe some people ruined it for you the place where you were standing
Anyhow, the show back in 2006 was certainly not bad, but also not spectacular... the one thing that bothered me during that gig were the booring pauses during the concert and the uninteresting solo's which didn't fit  (in my opinion). Also in the papers, the show didn't get very good reviews (mostly because of this reason I believe, it didn't kick ass enough according to them)

The voice however was great! (as always I assume)

[Reckless Rose]

I agree to that. Their show at Graspop wasn't bad, but it was the least of those I saw during that tour. They had the solos at all the shows though, which in itself isn't a bad thing, but it is when it takes all the pace out of something that should be a steaming rock 'n' roll train.

I was at Pukkelpop 2002 (also in Belgium) and they did not get booed at all. I don't  know about Graspop 2006 cuz I didn't make it to that festival (one of my best friends decided to get married on that day  )

At Pukkelpop Suede was playing just before Gunners and their concert was ruined by GnR fans chanting 'GUNS N' ROSES' the whole time. 
I don't think Belgian crowds are bad, maybe a bit quit sometimes but at least they listen to what the band is playing instaed of throwing bottles of piss 

The thing with Graspop is that it is a metal festival and it attracs a lot of meatheads and we know how they feel about Gunners in general.

A lot of metalheads - like myself -  enjoy GN'R, even much more than the so called 'alternative' assholes you find on festivals like Pukkelpop..
(I also was there in 2002)

I hope they can soon confirm the presence of GN'R on Graspop...which is by the way a fucking great metal festival!
