I love Jack White, but he has an ego the size of the Titanic. Not sure he'd take an opening slot, even for a reunited GNR.

The fact that the ticket says 930 on them... leads me to believe there is no plans for an opening band in vegas.
That's what I'm thinking as well. Can't see Slash taking the stage close to midnight, but what do I know? Maybe he's making an exception for Vegas. |

I wouldn't roll out Slash going on stage around midnight. As long as it's pre-decided. It becomes weary when you're scheduled at 10 pm and the waiting begins. When you're just killing time (with drinking) |

   I never would've thought of them in a million years. Points for originality. I agree with those saying Vegas unlikely to have any opening acts. The opening act would have likely been confirmed at this point. If they rotate opening acts like the Stones for a stadium tour, literally anything is possible. |

I think an opening act, especially if it's only for a couple of shows, could be announced on short notice. That has happened many times in the past.

I'm probably being sentimental, but Sebastian Bach. I like him.  Especially for the first shows in Vegas. |

It would be very very cool if Skid Row would get their stuff together and get the originals back.
Back/Bolan/Snake/Afuso (that his name?)
Skid Row opening for Gn'R would just be awesome. it won't happen though. Why can't they work it out?

Possibly AX7 - good fit crowd wise...but in no way shape or form do I see Axl wanting the Maroon 5 crowd a part of this
Give me someone with some bite to them - preferably someone who is on the verge of exploding and respects all that is/was Gn'r
In rock? The pickings are slim, in terms of acts like that (the last bit, on the verge), that would actually draw at a stadium show. If we were back in the 90s....the cup would runneth over. I agree...but maybe I'm an old fart...there just isn't that many ROCK bands out there  But I wouldn't mind a cross-over act that can get me dancing |

I already said so earlier in the thread, but I think A7X is the perfect fit for GN'R.
They're quite big now also, it would help on stadium ticket sales.

I don't want some stupid dumb band opening for them.
Just a known under the radar band. For the stadiums that is.
They don't need anyone to open for the arena stuff.
Bush is perfect. I'm telling you. THey are going out on the road this summer. It makes perfect sense.
. They played the big stage right before GnR at Rocklahoma in 2013.......you are correct. Perfect!!! |

These are high profile gigs, so anyone would be lucky to play them. Hopefully we get some big names.

I'm really hoping Halestorm opens at MetLife. They are really good!

No please! I fell asleep with A7X opening for Metallica at Foro Sol  |
