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

[ice cream sand pig]

Just because someone is unsure about whether something will happen or not doesnt mean they dont want it to. its natural for some to be skeptical in this case. but yeah, you guys have me pretty convinced it must be on. id be very surprised at this point if it wasnt.

i dont get brownstone. he talks so much shit about jarmo on mygnr, even posts links over there to what he said here. what is your deal dude, get off jarmos nuts already. nobody here is interested in you trying to arouse him all the damn time. to be honest, i bet it even comes off as childish to the folks at mygnr. i hope both places ban you at the same time for trying to stir up bad blood.

[dmathski]

I dont think it is going to happen after axl last tweet  im sure my post will be taking down

That's what I believe as well. Of course, they'll label us "crazy" or whatever..but it's just common sense. It pretty much looks like he denied the whole thing. BUT, than again, the old logo on the site..the teaser...I'm just gonna wait for tuesday (IF he even appears on Kimmel)...

Common sense???...  Ummm ok... And man didn't walk on the moon and terrorists didn't knock down the world trade center.

Generic or not, there is some more press, favoring the original lineup.

Sure hope those other guys in Snakepit aren't too bothered by this.

Here is another article. I knew and worked with Mark when he was at Bloomberg. Some people are still denying that the reunion will  take place. Since I do work for a media company, I can tell you that sources are vetted, especially at Bloomberg and NY Times.

There are just too many reputable sources putting things out under their letterhead.

Keep in mind, even if its just largely repeating things, they don't want to be embarrassed.  The right calls get made before they put it out there with their name on it.

Exactly, these publications like the NYT isn't gonna go and post some he said she said bullshit rumor.

Anyone here going to Coachella by the way?

[D-GenerationX]

Not I.

But if Philly somehow gets skipped, I'm going to have to violate my rule and travel to see this guy.

Not me. Too expensive to go. Since I live 15 minutes away from Giants Stadium ( aka  MetLife Stadium), I'll be going to that show.

NY or DC are my back-ups.

I'm not buying plane tickets and getting hotel rooms for a rock band.  Even this one.

That's fuckin' nuts.

I agree! I saw the packages for Coachella. I'm no way paying those prices. It's not even worth it for Expedia since you would have to rent a car to get there.

I'm sure GNR will play in Philly. If not, then all you have to do is take the NJ Turnpike to MetLife. Btw, if you are a fan of the Eagles, sorry to hear about Chip Kelly.  A coach should not be fired with one game left in the season. Rumor has it Coughlin will retire as NY Giants coach on Monday.

[Spirit]

Yeah, saw the prices. It's nuts.

[jameslofton29]

Yeah and they're only going to get more expensive. Wait until this is officially confirmed and scalpers get to em.


I'm hoping for Levi Stadium.


I almost went to Coachella 08 when MIA was there. The prices were bat shit crazy(not nearly as bad as now though) and she was playing several shows in the bay area so why bother.

As long as its an actual tour and not a one off I have no desire to go. Wade neck deep in hipster shit to see GNR? I'll wait....

[GnR-NOW]

Coachella is always expensive. They'll do a more traditional tour since that's where the money is

[Spirit]

So, many rumors suggest only Axl, Slash and Duff from the old line-up.

Do you guys think this could be a function of those three guys being the only ones in the legal partnership which is Guns N Roses Music?

Yeah......the slot machine was revealing to an extent.

We already knew those three were in the partnership but that kind of shows the direction this might be going...

[GnR-NOW]

Yes, I mean how can you not consider Richard Fortus to be a member? If you have seen any show from 2002 to now, Richard is a big part of the show and to me he's more of a member over any guitarist other than slash or izzy. So if he's there I think his presence will be huge

Also interesting timing on that slot machine. When it was first announced in early 2015, it was said it would come out later in the year. The fact that it ended up being scheduled for release now in January of 2016 must be for a reason.

I can't imagine it being delayed because of programming or the difficulty of making such a software. I'm no expert, but for a computer programmer it can't be much of a challenge to make that, and I can't imagine it taking so long.

I think it was for marketing reasons, and therefore it couldn't be released ahead of any announcement from the band.

[overmatik]

I was thinking about this hybrid lineup. In a way this would allow Axl to say that it's not a reunion, but an evolution of the current band. Just like when Dave returned to Van Halen, they never branded as a reunion, but as a new band.

This way all those years denying a reunion would not be a contradiction, as Axl will still own the name and all the others will be hired members.

[draguns]

I'm pretty sure that Slash and Duff  are partners and not "hired hands" as some have suggested. I think this may have something to do with the old partnership. Additionally,  Van Halen is more of a family business. Apples to oranges.
