Title: Gn'R to be at Ozzfest??
Post by: BurningHills on February 08, 2006, 07:55:37 PM
www.usarockfestivals.com (http://www.usarockfestivals.com):

Go there and click the Ozzfest picture...apparently he's revealing the headliners later this week, and its either gonna be GN'R or AC/DC.

I'm gonna e-mail him and try to find out if he'll tell me beforehand.

I think its safe to say that something will be happening this summer. Axl talking, the buzz in the air...somehting will happen....

honestly though I want the album before any touring...or atleast a single, tour and album after the summer festivals....

i pray we dont get anymore tours without a followup

Ain't that the truth. Something is definitely about to go down. If GN'R is going to play all of these festivals (Download, Ozzfest), then they need to have at least a new radio single out.

And also, since GN'R isn't going to play Reading/Leeds - dare I speculate its because they're going to be commited to Ozzfest?

Na, i dont think so, GNR are hardcore.. and i like to belive theyr new music will be even more hardcore.. When listening to Use Your Illusion 1, they could fith right in there... :D

Lets X our fingers... never get tierd of doing that!

Well, if you go to the site and take a look at who is rumored to be the main stage acts this year, its more hard rock oriented:

AC/DC or GN'R (headliner)
System Of A Down/Godsmack (co-headliner)
Disturbed (co-headliner - CONFIRMED)
Avenged Sevenfold (offered)
Black Label Society (confirmed)
Trivium or Stone Sour (rumored)

Its not too far fetched to see GN'R playing a stage consisting of those acts.

Didn't VR just do some shows for Ozzfest last year?

So when does Ozzfest kick off this year?

It actually says rumoured headliner. Which means its pretty much bullshit.


Title: Re: Gn'R to be at Ozzfest??
Post by: Nytunz on February 08, 2006, 08:21:25 PM
and he also says he almost have the headliner confirmed, so wouldent that mean that its AC/DC or GNR? And he will reveal it later this week...
hmmm....  :-X  :-*  ::)


Title: Re: Gn'R to be at Ozzfest??
Post by: BurningHills on February 08, 2006, 08:21:46 PM
Well considering its going to be either AC/DC or GN'R - there's a 50/50 chance. Unless Ozzy or Black Sabbath decides to do their umpteenth reunion.

And as I said, GN'R is not playing Leeds/Reading this year - I don't think its too hard to speculate that it could be because of prior commitments.

He only has so much credibility left.  :-\

After the way Sharon treated Iron Maiden last year (mercks "other" boys) I'd be surprised if he would want Axl on her stage. Who knows though?

I think when we do get news it will be a shitload , single , album release date and tour news all in one huge lump.

I hope GnR doesn't do Ozzfest or if they do, then 1 or 2 shows would be ok.  GnR need their own tour.

i fucking hope they do it, ozzfest got som good bands going on and i defenetly don't think it's to hardcore for guns like someone said.

ozzfest got a pretty god name to it to don't they?


Title: Re: Gn'R to be at Ozzfest??
Post by: MR W,AXL ROSE on February 08, 2006, 10:51:37 PM
is it a realistic thought that gnr will do a festival this year,i dunno.but why do so many poeple like fukin with gnr fans heads.they say stuff like GNR rumoured but they say the same thing every year.the only thing we got to go on this year is axls comment "everytime theres a big festival we get rumoured to be there",which says to me that hes laughing at how gullable we the fans are.but,then he says "we,ll just have to wait and see" which says to me "watch this space".so axl is laughing at us for being gullable then satrting a rumour about himself which he probebly knows WONT happen.why the lack of communication with his fans.ok we know that he doesnt have to comunicate but why does he choose not to.i get the feeling we,the fans,are his enemy.wow what a ramble.its very rare i have a pop at uncle axl but right now im a bit fed up with rumours.im sure their is a plan for the future but i dont think a festival is a good start without some material on the shelves.maybe it is.oh i dont fukin know,what are you asking me for ?:rant: :rant: :rant:.god,whats up with me.can someone guide me to the frustration thread please,i feel a hissy fit coming on ?:rofl:.

Okay, let me see if I can sum up all of this:

GNR won't be playing download
GNR could still play RIO
GNR is rumored to play a festival according to Uncle Axl

fast forward:

insiders speculate VR is no more, with a GNR reunion in the clouds
Halfin and Slash start shit to rile Axl fans

HTGTH members get pissed and do a 10++ page thread

reverse:

Madagascar88 says Dizzy who is his fraternity brother now tells him some "top secret" news.
ARC, a mygnr.com forum reject tells everyone on another site (READING FESTIVAL....which GNR won't be playing at either) that the "top secret" news is Slash is back in GNR

Meanwhile, Mysteron tells HTGTH everything is baseless

GNR is rumored to headline Ozzfest
VR played Ozzfest dates last year

Slash loves Axl even though 10 years have gone by
Axl loved Slash (notice past tense) and wanted to show everyone how great Slash was (again, notice past tense)

Meanwhile, HTGTH posters still await confirmation of GNR not playing fucking ANYWHERE so they can still have their hopes shit on.

Oh and GNR is NOT at the Grammys this year.


Okay...did this pretty much sum up the discussion for today, Feb. 8th? :hihi:

i  just cant see GnR touring with Ozzfest.  Maybe a date or two - but not a whole rollicking big tour with other bands etc.  for a band that's been so insular for so long - can you really see them taking to the road with other bands on Ozzfest????  It would be a huge step - as opposed to one RIR as touted.  I cant see Izzy being interested in that if he is on the GnR cards either..

I also dont think that slash is back in GnR.  Every VR interview I've read sounds like they really feel they've made a committment to each other as a unit.  Maybe slash will guest with GnR - but I doubt he's back in the fold.

If Slash in the future came back in GNR, it would be as a frontman and as a coleader (with Axl).

Not as a guest.

No. 1 Reason why GN'R wouldn't do Ozzfest.

Reason No.2 is that Ozzy and Axl don't have the best relationship cause Ozzy always makes a shitty comment about Axl, even his spoiled daughter does... Imagine Sharon throwing eggs at Axl... She'll get her ass kicked in no time...

Now that I think about it, that would make a huge buzz in the industry...  :rofl:

I can't see GnR touring in a festival like that. either old band or new. Not gonna happen. When GnR goes on tour it'll be to promote C.D. with them headlining solo and a couple no name bands to open. Just like in 2002, but we;ll see more promotion than we did in 2002.

I do think the same way, I mean Axl is eagear than Bruce and Sharon couldn't handle him, so I guess she has to think way better if she want GNR on stage.

You think you know everything just because you're a mod on this forum and have talked with Stinson ?

You think that more people than in 2002 will pay to listen to omg, silkworms, rhiad, irs, chin dem just because there's an album out and video on MTV ? GN'R fans are supposed to be idiots ?

If you think that, you are fooling yourself. Mind your own shit, I'll mind about mine.

I see no problem with Guns doing Ozzfest to get back in the swing of things. It may help gain them some support from youngsters who may not have been around when Guns were huge in the 90's. And if all goes well, hopefully it will be a springboard for their own headlining tour. :peace:

yes he thinks so...and me too.  outside of the united states noone even knows that this new bands existing and inside only few i suppose.......   there was nearly no promotion for the north america tour and there also was no album/single/video  to support it. and they mainly played old songs, without the old band. that is something that isn`t working at all. and the relationship of the public/media to gnr changed.  but i suppose you know that.......but i don?t know what your reason is to post this unqualified comments.......

of course they'll be more people if there's an album out and video on MTV - it's pretty fucking obvious! you think GN'R will attract less fans if they have a new album and load of TV coverage do you?!?!

You think you know everything just because you're a mod on this forum and have talked with Stinson ?

You think that more people than in 2002 will pay to listen to omg, silkworms, rhiad, irs, chin dem just because there's an album out and video on MTV ? GN'R fans are supposed to be idiots ?

If you think that, you are fooling yourself. Mind your own shit, I'll mind about mine.

You probably have some serious problem in your head or with your eyes. Have you seen me talking about Stinson all the time in here? Or do you see me using my mod status to fuck with every poster in here? Have you seen me showing off any connection I might have?

The answer is simple, NOPE. So, I guess that after all you might indeed have some problem, at least with your eyes...

I think that lots of people will pay to listen to The Blues, Madagascar, November Rain, Sweet Child O' Mine and lots of other old and new songs. And with the right promotion they will be lots more.

I've been a Guns N' Roses fan since 1988. I grew up with this band. Their music has saved my life.

But I'm not blind or stupid enough to think that Axl will destroy everything he's been doing the past 6 years just for money. Cause a re-union for Axl means only money. Nothing more. At least at the moment.

I'm sure you want him to make a re-union, and most of GN'R fans do, but that's clearly not what he's after.

Your problem (and lots of other people's too) is that you can't understand that. I can't do anything about that. That's some malfunction in your "software"...

But since I'm a mod here I'll use my right to inform you that it's really boring to see the same people talking about a failure in every possible thread they can. This is a thread about GN'R at Ozzfest.

If you wanna discuss that, you're free to do it, if not MIND YOUR OWN SHIT and stop "informing" us about a possible failure.

yeah axl won`t destroy it....  and money issues aren?t pressing him either, if they were he could release CD though.....

I find it amusing when people that are indifferent or pessimistic about GnR rumors that it's called "bashing them" and are blasted for it or banned from the board.

From past recent and distant history, all GnR rumors turn out to be false.

I know from experience and following the progress of this album for the last 6 years, and beleiving past rumors of it's imminent release, only to have them turn out false has really jaded me with regards to GnR.

And if memory serves me correct, I heard radio adds promoting the 2002 Philly show mention the imminent release of Chinese Democracy as a january 03 release. (Yes, i was at that the show that ended it all)

So as far as this rumor, along with download festival, as well an imminent relase of CD in 2006; I'll believe it when I see it.

What I want to know is why do all you people have such belief in them.  Gullible, gullible people.

Just cause you have tickets in your hand don't mean shit.

They were selling tix for an additional Philly show the night of the 1st show back in 2002.

That is why the 2002 tour failed, all rock bands that tour nowadays now they need a good co head lining band to tour with or they wont fill the arenas

1st of all, being pessimistic is not a problem for me, you can be as pessimistic as you want. Jarmo for instant is the most pessimistic person I've seen in this forum.

Unfortunately there are people who always talk about how CD will be a failure and the new GNR will break up. Now that is at least boring if you read the same comments by the same people in every possible thread.

Noone has been banned for having different opinions (we're talking about logical people here) or for being pessimistic.

2nd, do you honestly believe that if the band releases an album and will be heavily promoted by their record company, will not be able to  fill up an arena?

2002 was a disaster cause there was no album and no promotion.

3rd. The reason I still believe in this band is.... cause I'm an optimist...  ;)

no philly didn't sell out. the day of the show they were promoting half-off tickets for the second philly show if you bought tickets to the first show... or something like that... either way they were still trying to get people to buy tickets to the shows, and somewhat desperate i might add...

most of the shows filled up about 6000-8000 seats, which is ok until you consider they were playing in 20,000 seat arenas... although msg was sold out and it was pretty damn incredible...

I'm sure you want him to make a re-union, and most of GN'R fans do, but that's clearly not what he's after.

I'm Glad to be a minority (of one?).  :D

Few bands have massive fans before releasing their debut albums. I guess GNR had just a handful of appreciators back in 1985/6. Time didn't stop there. It wouldn't be the same band even if it reunited.

But even if Axl ever disappointed me by abandoning the project, my dream band, to reunite with the old guys, If it happened,  I wouldn't nag the board about the alumni band. NOr would I bash Axl for not doing what I want him to do.
I wouldn't be that UGLY.

Naysayers, Why don't you find another band that satisfies you?
Or better yet, form your ideal band yourself.

I can't care less about a reunion. I'm a gnr fan of today.
I feel the same. I'm not interested in rehash. We've been listening to the old stuff since 1987, and I have no interest in seeing it brought back from the dead. Sure, maybe one show or two might be cool. I'm interested in hearing what Axl was able to do after the disintegration of the old band, and to truly hear how the band has 'evolved'. I'm shocked everytime I hear someone say that want a reunion more than they want CD. Why?? What is hearing Jungle again going to accomplish? Even if the old band got together again, the magic is gone. People dont seem to realize it can never be 1987 or 1991 again. People seem to forget how the band was sliding towards irrelevancy in late 92/early 93. The fire was gone The band was literally hanging by a thread. Instead of creating something spectacular to counteract the grunge movement, the world was treated to an irrelevant cover album that literally put the final nail in the coffin of the old bands relevancy. People want that rehashed? Sorry, I'm not interested. Let the old band be remembered for how great it was during the few years they were on top of the world.

i think the perfect gnr scenario for me would be this:

Axl releases Chinese Democracy
New Gnr Tour on that album for a yr
Release a follow up to that album
and tour on that album

so lets say thats a 4 yr process....

then at a later time OLD gnr reunite and tour

that for would be the best gnr scenario

i was at the philly show (which was a friday night). it was a complete sell out in advance of the show.

the second show - two nights later on sunday night - was not selling well at all. so they were offering tickets at ridiculously low prices, if you already bought tix to the first show.

also, album/promotion/single does not guarantee anything. and it certainly doesn't guarantee sell-outs at 20K seat venues.

and it only helps IF the album/single are well received by the public.

alright... but given a choice between NOTHING (which is pretty much what we've gotten from Axl and the new GN'R) or a reunion... which would you guys choose?

Personally, I just want to see Guns N' Roses blow up on the world again and get the credit they deserve before they hit freakin' 50 (younggunner, you do realize that according to your plan, Axl would be 48 pushing 49 by the time he gets around to taking the stage with the old band?)... and I've come to feel (in just the last few days) IMHO that they have a he11 of a better chance of doing that via reunion ?than they do with the new band.

I think Axl should start out at a festival. ?Given his record for showing up, I'm sure people are hesitant to buy a ticket, but if there were happy with the other bands, then it wouldn't be a total waste.

I was at Philly too - Friday night sold out really fast so I guess they thought they could sell out another night too, but soon realized that was true and tried to sell tickets dirt cheap to everyone going Friday.

I find it amusing when people that are indifferent or pessimistic about GnR rumors that it's called "bashing them" and are blasted for it or banned from the board.

From past recent and distant history, all GnR rumors turn out to be false.

I know from experience and following the progress of this album for the last 6 years, and beleiving past rumors of it's imminent release, only to have them turn out false has really jaded me with regards to GnR.

And if memory serves me correct, I heard radio adds promoting the 2002 Philly show mention the imminent release of Chinese Democracy as a january 03 release. (Yes, i was at that the show that ended it all)

So as far as this rumor, along with download festival, as well an imminent relase of CD in 2006; I'll believe it when I see it.

What I want to know is why do all you people have such belief in them.? Gullible, gullible people.



yeah and since there was promotion, the philly show did sell out :hihi:? ?


and well.....it?s not that pepe da rosa is "indifferent or pessimistic about GnR rumors", but that he`s continually posting unqualified bullshit...

or do you think a well promoted tour with a record/single to promote it would sell worse than a tour with almost no promotion and not even a greatest hits.....? and a tour where mainly old songs were played by new guys....

Hey, did you fly over from germany as 12yr old to see that show? : ok:

sure? :-*

actually my philly comment wasn?t meant to be that serious......? ? ? but actually the show sold out. i don`t have to fly to philly to know that..............?

it doesn?t matter if phiilly sold out or not at all..... but i thought it was a bad example to proove that even with promotion gnr sold bad.....? ?

no philly didn't sell out. the day of the show they were promoting half-off tickets for the second philly show if you bought tickets to the first show... or something like that... either way they were still trying to get people to buy tickets to the shows, and somewhat desperate i might add...

most of the shows filled up about 6000-8000 seats, which is ok until you consider they were playing in 20,000 seat arenas... although msg was sold out and it was pretty damn incredible...

i thought it was the second show that didn?t sell out?

and well? ? ? i know that the tour was suffering bad sales,? but bringing up philly as an example just striked me :hihi:

I mentioned the Philly show because I was there and  saw lots of empty seats; friends went to the MSG show and i read somewhere that was about the only show to sell-out; to say the show was sold-out, and not be there to see all the empty seats doesn't make sense

they may have limited the number of tix sold to the show; or; people didn't bother going to their seats as there were rumors circulating while the opening acts were on that Axl was still in NYC and he wasn't showing up.

As for this show not being promoted, gotta say that's complete bullshit as 93.3 and 94.1 were advertising this show for three months prior.

I can't say about the other cities during that tour what type of promotion they got; but the philly show was heavily promoted

But remember.. Guns N Roses is a much more relevant band today, then in 2002.. GNR are Retro. And i guess Axl sellling of the publishingrights, may have something to do with that! They play ALOT of GNR on VH1 over the last few months... They have made GNR intros to theyr programs and so on!

But i hope they will do some kind of promotion for the new album and tour..

"I think Axl should start out at a festival.  Given his record for showing up, I'm sure people are hesitant to buy a ticket, but if there were happy with the other bands, then it wouldn't be a total waste."

Agreed...Ozzfest is an annual trek for me, and the band list looks good with or without them : ok:

Seriously, does anyone think a promoter would risk booking a GNR tour in the US after the 2002 fiasco? Or would any other band want to tour with them with GNR's history?

For a tour to be successful GNR needs a current big band like Linkin Park or Korn to headline with them. I don't see it happening. And any festivals would be crazy to book them.

do you consider korn or linkin park a current big band?  well, i don`t think so.....

if gnr release an album, there won`t be a problem with promoters i guess,,,, that`s the main difference to 2002 or a tour that would?ve happened in 2004.

I just heard on 93.3 wmmr in philly that GnR is being considered for as a possible headliner for Ozzfest this year since ozzy and black sabbath will not be playing the festival.

not sure how this would pan out since i think ozzfests schedule conflicts with the current guns dates in europe, but it would be a great way to introduce the new guns to the states and help win back the people.

Never thought GNR would be a good fit at Ozzfest, wrong type of audience. ?Not sure they'd have the temperment/patience to sit throught NR, TWAT or any long ballad type offering. ?Rolling out a grand piano in front of that crowd could get ugly.

The first time Axl went diva on Sharon would be the last time, no matter what she's said about him in the past..

I must say that... 1000 people shows would be stupid... none of us would be able to get tickets... the venues they are playing are fine... headlining? I don't know, but they need to play at least 4000 - 100000 seated venues

Eh, I don't really see it happening. Like someone said, the Ozzfest crowd is hardcore. I went one year in Nashville and the people are just insane, fighting and moshing. I just don't see that kinda crowd showing a lot of support for this band. We'd defintiely have to see how the album is (as far as rockers) before I'd put them in that line-up.

After the way Sharon treated Iron Maiden last year (mercks "other" boys) I'd be surprised if he would want Axl on her stage. Who knows though?

I think when we do get news it will be a shitload , single , album release date and tour news all in one huge lump.

I do think the same way, I mean Axl is eagear than Bruce and Sharon couldn't handle him, so I guess she has to think way better if she want GNR on stage.
though this is just a stupid rumor, if Sharon thought Bruce was an asshole, imagine the time she'd have with Uncle Axl.  :hihi: i just hope that if it is true, then this year, things will turn out better than last year's "Eggfest"  >:(

If GNR does play Ozzfest I hope they come near me first because I guarantee they quit are piss of Sharon so much that they don't play any more of the shows.  I can see it no Sharon goes in to the GNR room and tells them they are on in 10 min. and Axl says we'll be out in a hour or two.

Ozzfest 2006 info leaked
Following weeks of online speculation and rumors, it appears certain that System Of A Down and Disturbed will be two of the main stage performers at this summer's edition of OzzFest. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania radio station WXDX has posted that the festival will stop in that area on July 25th and lists both bands as appearing. No other groups are mentioned, but sources have told us that Avenged Sevenfold is also heading to the main stage, while metalcore rockers Atreyu will co-headline the second stage. Complete OzzFest info is scheduled to be posted on Thursday, March 9th at 9:00 PM ET.

Atreyu is currently on the Taste Of Chaos tour and appeared at OzzFest two years ago. Frontman Alex Varkatzas told us he enjoys both but prefers the outdoor vibe at OzFest: "It's better 'cause you can go outside and do stuff. Like, if you wanna go, like, run around and be crazy, you can. You don't have to sit inside. That's the only thing about Taste of Chaos, is 'cause of the weather, it's a little more cramped."

Other rumored members of this year's line-up include Black Label Society, Bleeding Through and Unearth.

Big names such as Metallica, Godsmack and even Guns N' Roses have been linked to OzzFest in recent weeks as well.

This will be the first year that the festival is not headlined by either Ozzy Osbourne or Black Sabbath.

Official Ozzfest 2006 Press Release

By Newsferatu, Writer
Thursday, March 9, 2006 @ 5:16 PM

System of a Down to headline main stage

Press Release:

?They came, they saw, they pumped fists,? wrote Entertainment Weekly last year about the fans who experienced the ?sweaty-heady essence? of the 10th anniversary of the king of festivals, the mighty OZZfest.

And now, amped up to 11, the summer?s premiere touring concert festival enters its second decade this July with clenched teeth and trademark invincible spirit. OZZfest will roll out [need launch date] and visit [need total #] cities, with a full itinerary due shortly.

Founder and namesake OZZY OSBOURNE is set to headline just 10 shows this summer. Why? ?Because after 10 years I feel it?s time to let someone else share the headlining spotlight. We want to shake it up a bit this year? says Ozzy. ?I?ve closed virtually every OZZfest performance for a decade now and I feel I can finally let other artists headline our festival and that?s my intention for the future.?

This year?s main stage lineup features headliner SYSTEM OF A DOWN and such formidable artists as DISTURBED, HATEBREED and LACUNA COIL. Fans can also expect a major main stage addition to be revealed on May 23rd. As testament to the tour?s undeniable impact on the music world, each of the announced main stage act (other than Ozzy himself) started out in the trenches on OZZfest?s down-and-dirty second stage and subsequently won the approval of the festival?s discerning followers. Both SYSTEM OF A DOWN and DISTURBED have gone on to enjoy multi-platinum sales for critically acclaimed albums that have entered the charts at #1. *(See artist quotes below.)

Headlining this year?s second stage as a perennial favorite is the Zakk Wylde-led BLACK LABEL SOCIETY, who blew fans away on the main stage last year. Joining them are such high-decibel bands whose names alone underline their fiercely uncompromising vision: ATREYU, UNEARTH, BLEEDING THROUGH, NORMA JEAN, A LIFE ONCE LOST, STRAPPING YOUNG LAD, THE RED CHORD, FULL BLOWN CHAOS, WALLS OF JERICHO, ALL THAT REMAINS and BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME.

The tour will mark Ozzy Osbourne?s first solo concerts in three years (having headlined OZZfest with Black Sabbath in 2005 and 2004) and the 20th anniversary of guitarist Zakk Wylde being in his band. Ozzy will be debuting a new song at OZZfest from the solo album that he?s currently working on with Zakk (release date TBA). The as-yet-untitled disc will be Ozzy?s first solo album of new material since 2001.

?As we head into our eleventh year,? says tour founder Sharon Osbourne, ?OZZfest remains committed to its original vision of sharing this vibrant music and lifestyle that was and is still overlooked by the mainstream media. It?s something real that our audience understands--and demands and they?re undying support for this music is the reason for OZZfest?s continued success.? ?Ozzfest has thrived because of repeat business? OSBOURNE continues. Fans of this music know firsthand that Ozzfest offers them a full-day of music. We give them a chance to see the best of the new bands on the 2nd stage to the legends of the genre on the main stage. It?s the only place to see all of these bands on one show!?

Official Ozzfest 2006 Press Release

By Newsferatu, Writer
Thursday, March 9, 2006 @ 5:16 PM

System of a Down to headline main stage

Press Release:

?They came, they saw, they pumped fists,? wrote Entertainment Weekly last year about the fans who experienced the ?sweaty-heady essence? of the 10th anniversary of the king of festivals, the mighty OZZfest.

And now, amped up to 11, the summer?s premiere touring concert festival enters its second decade this July with clenched teeth and trademark invincible spirit. OZZfest will roll out [need launch date] and visit [need total #] cities, with a full itinerary due shortly.

Founder and namesake OZZY OSBOURNE is set to headline just 10 shows this summer. Why? ?Because after 10 years I feel it?s time to let someone else share the headlining spotlight. We want to shake it up a bit this year? says Ozzy. ?I?ve closed virtually every OZZfest performance for a decade now and I feel I can finally let other artists headline our festival and that?s my intention for the future.?

This year?s main stage lineup features headliner SYSTEM OF A DOWN and such formidable artists as DISTURBED, HATEBREED and LACUNA COIL. Fans can also expect a major main stage addition to be revealed on May 23rd. As testament to the tour?s undeniable impact on the music world, each of the announced main stage act (other than Ozzy himself) started out in the trenches on OZZfest?s down-and-dirty second stage and subsequently won the approval of the festival?s discerning followers.

  A surprise guest appearance would be the best way to go about Ozzfest.  A guest vocal for a song or 2 with another band, just to feel out the situation.  If that crowd digs it, do a couple more, maybe with the whole band. 

  Of course, Axl would need to mesh with the other performers as well.  Support from the other artists would be key, and I think he could pull it off personally.  If he waltzes in there like a super-star not respecting the artists and organizers etc., then he'd have problems.  I think he's smart enough to realize this.   :yes:

Have you got a source for that, 'cos they are currently booked to play Dublin on June 11th with Metallica whilst Guns are at Donington.

Looking at the way the Metallica tour is panning out, it looks like A7X are going to be following the 'Tallica boys.

I can almost garuntee that a "Slash" or "Velvet Revolver" chant will erupt at Ozzfest. Axl's band will be torn apart there... It's just a hunch I have.

The UYI's killed any talk of being a metal band.  Come on, think about it, watching the Trilogy videos, you have to think that this isn't metal.  If they kept dropping a bunch of AFD style albums, then metalheads would LOVE Axl.  But look at the band Now...not very metallic :hihi:

Thats what I'm trying to say... Thats why if Axl is smart he'll play Sweet Child, Jungle, Paradise City, My Michelle, Nightrain, Rocket Queen, Civil War, You Could Be Mine and IRS + Heavy Chinese Democracy songs

But at the time of AFD, GnR was about as heavy as it got, aside from underground stuff of course.

Better is the heavyiest thing I think I've heard from GnR ever, which is pretty damn cool : ok: I'm thinking alot of people on this board are gonna be sorely dissapointed when CD is released :yes:

also if they aren't metal, then why are they playing this show?

Metal is one fucking things Guns n Roses have never been! I cant believe some people actually think this! Come on eh! They are a punk rock or rock n roll band whichever way people want to look at it! I thinks thats what has set the band apart from so many others because they were different! I personally fucking hate metal music, have done for years but guns dont fall into that category at all! They have class about them, their music and lyrics have always been too clever, and meaningful to be portrayed in a metal category! I do appreciate that a hell of a lot of people who are metal fans also love guns n roses but it does not mean that the band fall into that style of music! Sorry if others do not agree buts is a fact that the band have always been described a punk rock band! I believe their new style when we hear it all will be different again, but that will be because Axl likes the bands music to evolve he always has done! Mike

Maybe heavier then anything on Illusions (although I doubt it, Civil War is heavier same with You Could Be Mine) but it's nothing compared to "My Michelle", "Welcome To The Jungle", "Paradise City" or "Out ta Get Me"... Hell I personally think "I.R.S." is heavier.

It's So Easy is one of the best punk songs ever penned by a Hard Rock band.

You Could Be Mine is one of the best metal songs ever penned by a Hard Rock band.

Guns N' Roses is basically hard rock with some punk, metal, and classic rock influence in the mix.

How did this thread degenerate into a series of posts about what style of music GNR plays, and what style of music the Ozzfest bands play?? JUST LOOK AT THE DATES!

GNR plays all of June and one date in July (the 4th).? GNR has no further tour dates after July 4th.? Ozzy will only headline ten dates at this years Ozzfest, with a "major addition to the main stage" announced on May 23rd.? Ozzfest kicks off on July 1, another show on July 2 (GNR has no dates these days).? Ozzfest has no date July 4th when GNR plays their last international date.? Ozzfest starts again on the 8th of July.? GNR is back in the states.

Unless we see additional international shows added to GNR's tour, I think there is a very good and rational chance that GNR will play Ozzfest.? Both sides benefit.? GNR gets the security that Ozzfest provides (in a literal "are you listening to me Mr. Security Man?" sense that Axl wants so badly), and they get to reach a broad range of old school and younger listeners.? Ozzfest gets a big name rock legend that can replace Ozzy on dates that he's not there.

Post by: WhosGilby? on March 11, 2006, 06:07:29 PM
There are two bands that still need to be announced One to headline (Maybee Avenged Sevenfold) and on to take the dates that Ozzy isnt playin(Metallica,Guns N Roses,AC/DC) Kinda Like Iron Maiden and Velvet Revolver last year. I Think


Title: Re: Gn'R to be at Ozzfest??
Post by: BLS-Pride on March 11, 2006, 06:15:17 PM
If Sharron didnt think Avenged wasn't big enough then she would not have contacted them so early and really wanted them to play. It won't be GnR.  And Ozzy doesn't need to have someone fill in dates he wont be performing cause those will be special dates..


Title: Re: Gn'R to be at Ozzfest??
Post by: Neemo on March 11, 2006, 07:20:28 PM
we should make a thread about what genre GnR is :hihi:

I got an interview with Axl and Slash where they talk about where they feel they belong in musical genres. from like 89 or something. want me to uplaod it monday?

I think they say metal, punk, glam, blues, rock and one or 2 more but they have aspects from everywhere. I'm not one for punk but they fall into that category on a few songs, not the crap punk of today but old stuff, clash, pistols, and much more obscure bands

duff is totally punk and he brought a big part of his influence to the band.

whoever said that PC is more metal than Better......you need help  :hihi:

it looks like the bands playing on that list were in an order of performing. like i said before Avenged sevenfold is prolly right, GnR is not gonna go on before disturbed and like 4 bands before closing the show. no fucking way. have you seen how much stqge bands have to work with that early in these festival shows? once again...yeah right :P it says special guest only as a courtesy.


Title: Re: Gn'R to be at Ozzfest??
Post by: Elrothiel on March 11, 2006, 09:08:17 PM
I still don't think its A7X. Even if it isn't GN'R, it is NOT Avenged Sevenfold.

And the crap punk of today isn't punk at all. Its emo. They think they're being punk by dressing in black n pink and getting lip piercings to the side and dying their fringed hair black. Oh how original. How PUNK! ::) Stupid fake fuckers. They have no REAL emotion at all! Most emokids are middle to upper middle class, their parents drive BMWs, they live in huge houses, and they like to think that they live in shit. Cunts. They should try living in a third world country, or in an abusive family, or on the streets of the shittiest town you can think of!! THEN after they go back they should try thinking they live in shit!! Ungrateful fucktards they are!! :rant: *rounds up emokids in a big field and drops a huge napalm bomb on them*

Yea, I was gunna say that they have a Try-Too-Hard mentality.

Their image doesn't ring true either. When Gn'R dressed the way they did back in the 80s, it looked dirty and real and fucking cool! But when A7X dress the way THEY do... it just looks as if they've looked at old Gn'R pics, then looked at pics of recent Metallica, and thought "Oooh, lets all dress in black, but give it an 80s theme!" ::)

Fuckin' wannabes.

Bruce Dickerson was making fun of Ozzy every night on stage calling him washed up and whatnot.

I don't care if Bruce says that about Ozzy or anyone else, but when your on a man's tour give him respect.

Maiden is a great band but the dudes are jealous as hell of any band who's had the type of sucuess in America such as Black Sabbath... unfourtunly Maiden never took off in the USA and Bruce feels they should have.. so now he's bitter against bands that have, such as Sabbath (who is a much better band to begin with...)

I know what Sharron did was wrong, but Bruce baited her to do it.  If he treated the Ozzman with respect and acted like a good little boy on the tour he wouldn't of found himself in the mess he did.

my guess is that gnr will not be involved with ozzfest.

still, it IS interesting that gnr's schedule coincides with the ozzfest dates. and the fact that they are announcing an additional mainstage band just a couple days before gnr's first show is interesting as well.

If Sharon Osbourne announces the long secret "major mainstage band" and its Avenged Sevenfold, that would be pretty weak. ?Avenged Sevenfold is worth keeping as the "secret weapon"? ?I hope not! ?If Ozzy's only at ten shows and SOAD and Disturbed are the biggest bands there, then Ozzfest isn't going to make much money this summer.

The Mystery Band is Avenged Sevenfold.

dude, sorry but A7X isn't a Major headlining act. Sharon and Ozzy know they have to get someone huge to fill the spot. i'm tellin' ya, it's Metallica.

Thats who the strong rumor is at the moment. They have been silent about it and so has Sharron so it could happen. They are a very popular band at the moment and getting bigger.

Maybe Godsmack.. but not GnR.. Never.

I went to some Ozzfest shows last summer and I never heard Bruce slag Ozzy personally. IMO, he was reasonable. Bruce slammed Mtv and that whole thing.. ya know.. where Ozzys been drawing alot of his money from recently.. yeah.. that thing. But he never insulted the man himself.

Gotta E-mail from the Ozzfest webmaster.? Special Main Stage act will be named May 23rd.? So we will all know then for sure.? I highly dought it would be GNR, but I think it would be great, especially since I have been to the last 6 in my town and can get backstage, Box seats, and in the first couple of rows every year.? None of the rich people ever want to go to Ozzfest so I get them pretty easy.?
