Guns N' Roses to Reunite for Coachella, Possible stadium tour (Billboard)

[Spirit]

For an opening act on the tour, I would love for it to be Halestorm.

I expect a big one to help fill stadiums

Depends on their media strategy I think.

If they get out there, maybe release a single... Is in every magazine, TV also. They won't need any "big name" opener.

They need to broadcast the reunion aspect of it.

Does anybody know what time they will announce Coachella lineups on Jan 5 ?

It all depends.

25 big metropolitan areas. 25 "once in a lifetime" and/or "only show in this state" shows.

If you stay at home, you'll miss it.
That alone could fill up venues nicely.

Reflecting on the perpetual division among fans on here (particularly during the early/mid 2000s), it's great to see near-universal positivity today. 

The good old days!   

Now we are all family!

There needs to be a big HTGTH meetup at these shows.

Hell Yeah !! Will be good to see  the gang again at shows, I already booked a trip to Cali for Coachella! At worst I get to spend time with family, and no hotel needed just airfare!

I mentioned it earlier...

Rolling Stone haven't said a word. Previous rumors have got their attention immediately.

I suspect they've got a story straight from the horse's mouth ready to go soon.

[EmilyGNR]

well that's just bullshit.  we been waiting year and now it seems the time is here and I'm fucked it would appear.  been fun cheerin on this train for decades...sad

Yeah, its a tough for people like us.

However, be honest, if we had both re-upped like we should have...we'd probably appreciate it being closed for people trying to join as of 1 hour ago.

I'm having no problems logging in at all, site is working great for me- 

I just read though, never tried to post.

I was wondering why Rolling Stone hasn't reported on this yet as well.  I hope it's a good sign.

Went from front row at the Brooklyn Bowl and Roseland to who knows where at a football stadium...Not too happy.....

[chineseblues]

I'll be at any Canadian/northern states shows next summer when they happen.

Anyone reckon we'll hear Axl sing a VR song or something from Slash or Duff's solo projects? I always imagine how Axl would sound singing songs from those other bands

Axl doing Fall To Pieces or something would I think be a classy and welcome move. A mark of respect not just to his bandmates but to the late Scott Weiland.

I've been thinking about this...

While possible, I think Chinese songs are more likely. They were released under the GNR banner while a song like Fall To Pieces is technically from another band.

They have been doing cover songs though, so it is certainly possible. Axl would do great on Fall To Pieces, it'll be a great tribute to Scott.

No VR/Snakepit/Loaded etc covers.....Perhaps the 2 new songs rumored and how appropriate if they instantly release a Mot?rhead cover!

While it is technically from another band, it does have a little history for Axl and Slash... Maybe trade favors, you sing Fall to Pieces and I'll play This I Love?

One is heavily associated with another band and singer, the other one isn't....

The temp in hell just dropped 20 degrees....and i think i see ice crystals forming amongst the flames....

[pilferk]

I am just pissed that AEG likely will be promoting the tour. My boy in the ATL works for Live Nation. Argghhh. Maybe Guns use both at some point so I get a hook up.

After what happened with Irving Azoff  i dont think they will use Live Nation.

They did use them in recent years to my knowledge.

They have.

This ain't show friends...its show business.

You could say the same for Live And Let Die or Knockin' On Heaven's Door to be fair. If Axl can step on stage with Slash again I'd say all bets are off at this point.

Holy fuck weasels, YES!!

You could say that, but only if you conveniently disregard other facts.
Yes, they were originally written and recorded by people who aren't GN'R. But they weren't written or recorded by people who were in GN'R while they weren't in GN'R.

I'm sure you knew that.

Gilette and MetLife would be givens. I can do either...maybe both. That pricing would be the only killer.
