Fresh off their fiery Grammys performance, Hollywood Vampires have confirmed their first U.S. date of 2016. The supergroup, which features Alice Cooper, Johnny Depp, Joe Perry and Guns N' Roses' Duff McKagan, among others, will play the Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York – about four hours north of New York City – on May 24th.
 

"We have to carefully schedule the Vampires," Alice Cooper tells Rolling Stone. "That's because you have Johnny's movie schedule; you've got Aerosmith; you've got Guns N' Roses and you've got me! It's five entities going in five different directions. To get those guys all at one time when we're not working is really unique. So everybody looks at their calendar, and you have to find that two weeks where everybody's off."
 

The singer says he's also busy writing a new album and planning a tour with his solo group, and he and his supergroup friends are penning a new Hollywood Vampires record. "It's going to be fun to rehearse this stuff with the Vampires, because it doesn't happen so often that we get together," he says. "It's something you really look forward to."

Just so we can wonder about GnR dates, do we know if Duff is gonna be on the HW tour or is it gonna be like Josh Homme in EODM?

Duff will absolutely be on the Vamps tour. Alice Cooper said in the release about the first date that it's hard to find dates that Depp's movie schedule, Coop's solo work, Aerosmith, and Guns all let the band get together. So GN'R schedules are being considered, meaning Duff will be there.

My bigger question is, where does Matt fall in all of this?

The fact that Alice mentioned Duff has to work around GN'R but didn't say the same of Matt is pretty telling to me that he won't be involved in the reunion.

Don't think Duff will be involved with the tour.....they are playing same dates as Guns on poster above.

Perry told syracuse.com last month that the band would be in the Syracuse area for several days and use the Turning Stone Resort to "go over the songs together" for the tour. Most concerts will likely resemble the band's sole album, titled "Hollywood Vampires," which includes originals like "My Dead Drunk Friends" co-written by Depp and others.  

"We've got all those songs to pick from and you never know what else we might throw in there. There's so many cool songs that we like," Perry said.
