Guns N' Roses reunion heads to Mexico
By AFP

The long-in-the-making reunion of Guns N' Roses has gone international, with the hard rockers announcing a show in Mexico City.

The band, performing for the first time in 23 years with the original lineup of Axl Rose and Slash, posted a video on its website giving an April 19 date for a concert at the Foro Sol stadium.

The show will come halfway between the rockers' two performances at the Coachella festival, which takes place over back-to-back weekends in the California desert.

After announcing the Coachella reunion, Guns N' Roses scheduled additional concerts for early April in Las Vegas.

Guns N' Roses, marked by Rose's raw but soaring voice and Slash's intricate guitar, enjoyed extraordinary success with 1987 album "Appetite for Destruction," which remains the top-selling US debut ever.

But tensions were never far from the surface and the band's classic lineup last played together in 1993 in Buenos Aires.

The band, which has received years of lucrative offers for a reunion, is reportedly looking at a wider tour.

Its not promoting the show, the Band and management do that.  It's lazy journalism...

BBF is now travelling the world, playing at various places. no way he would be part of this again

[Princess Leia]

WTF???

Is that a practical joke?

[zombux]

most probably just stupid journalist, having no idea who's in the band (well, okay, we don't know much more) and who's on the picture.
but as I said before, BBF is not back, at least according to his current plans and whereabouts. + he's not that crazy to waste his time and talent in GNR again

[lassie4ever]

I am owning a pressite and to be honest , I think this is part the fault of Management.
Let me explain.

I often get pressreleases ( or not )  without press pics. If an band/Management wants to be certain that the press won't make a mistake or use an outdated pic.... well management should provide it . This way the journalist is less able to make an mistake.

On the other hand if i get an press release without press image i have three choices :
1:  don't publish (  that would be real lazy )
2: Ask the source for an current image
3: Do some homework and go looking for an updated picture!

If GNR Management provide better resources for the media this kinda mistakes would be less.....

[Nikki_Sixx]

Now that we had some time to let the reality of the reunion sink in...

... how utterly WRONG the sight of Axl with some random guy on guitar feels again all of a sudden !

[Spirit]

If GNR Management provide better resources for the media this kinda mistakes would be less.....

Not sure if it is provided for every concert press release, but didn't they provide this picture for the first announcement?

[zombux]

well, on the other hand, GNR were for long years during ChiDem era presented with totally wrong photos from the classic era, so it doesn't really matter.

[lassie4ever]

Well again if the band/management did provide pics or do an shoot with the new members .....

Not saying management does a lousy job ..
They got some old friends together and did not let GNR bleed dead.

Still it seems there can some little things they can work on. Like providing news to the masses on the correct way

Not being negative just an observation i made during the years

They put it on their website  ... is something different then handout to the press so they can work it out.
Just like the press release did not went out to every media.

Of course i am not that big and pick it up from the "Key Media"  but even their was not that pic .. saw it only on the site

Not for us Die-hard fans ..... but for the masses it ain't clear who is in and out.

How would you feel if you attend the gig and expect Slash cause he was on the promotion pic going all over.... and he ain't there.......

Sure that person would life under a rock in our opinion .....but not everyone are into fora or member on Nightrain

of course, you're totally right. but still - the masses only see "Axel" and Slash, meh about the other guys who aren't those two. maybe they remember some blonde guy, but not his name.

this is an good example of bad journalism

If Slash was on stage without a hat and playing a concert of a lifetime people still wouldn't know he was there.

It's just how it goes.

Ha! In fact, I'm surprised they didn't put Buckethead there instead...
