GN'R at Coachella 2016 confirmed! Including news articles

[GeorgeSteele]

I applaud Axl for finally growing up and getting past it.  I will never understand how we are supposed to see that as a bad thing.

He was getting downright embarrassing the way he was talking about Slash.  Saying one of them will be dead in a box before they talk again.  A little over the top, no?  Unless you walked in on a guy literally fucking your Mom the same day you found out he hacked into your bank account and stole all your money, that sort of talk made Axl look silly.

I love these developments.  They should be cheered, not shit on.

Is this cheering current developments or shitting on recent past?  Even if your uninformed characterization of past tensions is accurate, why go there now?  'Great game Joey, you were so much better than last week when you really sucked!'  C'mon, Costanza, show us you're Penske material.

I really like Bumble Jarmo
Does this include "bitterness"?

Not automatically.

But if you're a fan of his and start attacking GN'R because he quit... Then maybe there's some bitterness involved.

Glad you pointed it out. I didn't want to. He might get annoyed....

Well said George!

[D-GenerationX]

I hope it doesn't happen.  He totally does not deserve to be involved. Just my .02.

I'm not quite that militant.

I would not bat an eye at his exclusion.  I would understand and agree.

But I'm not so dug in that if the other guys were open to it, I'd still be against it.  They are the ones that have to deal with his bullshit, not us.

If I knew for a fact that it was just going to be Coachella... I'd do what I had to do to get out there...

But I'm sure the reports of the big tour to follow are true... most of the other stuff has come to fruition so far... and I'm sure NYC/Boston would be one of the big stops.

Im all over NYC ish area, and Met Life seems to be a sure bet!. Coachella works for me having family out there nearby already makes it just a better vacation with family and friends out there. But will only do one show out there, and save the other 400$ for later shows on their own.

Won't 😉
I was sad when he left - loved his way of communicating...
But then again...hell has frozen over! 😉😜😜

I will definitely drive a few hours to add some shows... Philli.. Boston.. and my casual GNR fan friends will all be down for these.

You see what you want to see, I suppose.

But, since Jarmo quoted a part that exact post agreeing with the sentiment as well as without anything snide to say to me, I tend to think the post passed muster.

Let's just leave bitterness out of the equation. Let's just enjoy what's going on right now, even if it doesn't last after the Coachella thing...

As long as remembering old quotes and stuff, we can go on and on about things said by every band member (or employee, if u will), but that doesn't change the fact that this is actually happening right now.

I still remember Axl saying in 91 that he couldn't see himself trying to duplicate what GNR was... In 94 he said the next album would take a shorter direction (compared to "Illusions")... and then BOOM! Everything changed overnight.

Other bands have made the exact same thing and no one receives such negativity.

[jarmo]

I just selectively quoted one line I agreed with, because I know how upset you can get if I point out how you're often adding negativity in many of your posts.

Can't be all positive, even in times like these I guess...

NYC should be great this summer (MetLife) but I am blowing my load today for Coachella, I mean once in a lifetime!

I will say, that was a trademark Costanza move, last line was positive, so you left on a high note.

I am actually holding off on Coachella.  In the history of the band since the release of the Illusions there have been multiple instances of a big show/tour announced that a few weeks later announced 'warm up' shows that preceded them.  Think the UYI tour (club tour), Rock in Rio 3 (Vegas), 2006 European tour (Hammerstein shows).  I just feel like GNR would not make their big comeback at a festival show with a shortened set list, but I could of course be very wrong.

Yeah...life's hard.

[sofine11]

On Adler, I still say if he's involved, it's for 2-3 songs tops if they can work out some kind of ironclad deal.  Let's say he was the drummer, it'd just be an hour show...Because that's all he can play. There's 3.5 other albums worth of songs to consider. He couldn't handle it, and you can bet the the three of them know it.

Axl once said that with someone as desperate as Steven, even doing just a few songs could result in years of legal aftermath.  There's also that to consider.

So color me Team Frank.

[jarmo]

Yeah...life's hard.

It's been obvious to some of us for a while now. Don't worry. No need to spell out how hard your life is.

I bet there are warmups too but most likely in the LA area (I live in NYC) so the first "big" show I want to be there, also it doesn't hurt that's its going to be a great weekend with a group of 10 friends just partying and getting some California sun! So I say Fuck it i'll go!

Now if GNR sneaks into NYC for a warm up show well then.......

[sofine11]

Could a "first appearance" deal with Coachella get in the way of warm up shows in the LA area?

[Princess Leia]

OK, here's what bugs me about this....and it's actually NOT the rumor.

Ultimate guitar (and a couple other places) basically cut up an Eddie Trunk blog post, using it to source the rumor, and inserted some questions to make it look like UG interviewed Trunk.

Which isn't, remotely, what happened, here.

Sorry, I just find stuff like this annoying.  How about just cp-ing trunk's post, linking back to his site, and giving the guy all the credit for the rumor.

Here, keep in mind is  a bit long.
