tsinindy Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) GnR billboards are popping up in several cities in the US. This is the same way the Stones rolled out dates of their tour last summer in the US as well. A billboard was put up in the cities where tour dates were announced shortly thereafter. I realize this may belong in the "Rumored and Confirmed" Tour Dates thread...but also it may deserve it's own thread as it would be easier to keep track of this here. If you have seen such a billboard feel free to post here, maybe include a pic of it if possible and where the board is. I did a Twitter search this AM and found the following tweets noting boards in the cities of Pittsburgh (2) and Baton Rouge: Edited March 25, 2016 by tsinindy fixed links Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6lake sa66ath Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Wow, worst photos ever. Here we all are criticising the band for their lack of info, and real deadset bonafide big chunks of official band promo appear and a decent clear picture can't even be taken. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtle Signs Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Nice find. You'd think cities with billboards would definitely be getting shows. I doubt they are to promote a record store day release of AFD on cassette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsinindy Posted March 25, 2016 Author Share Posted March 25, 2016 Additionally, for reference the Stones billboards went up last year exactly two weeks before the dates were "officially" announced. Could be seeing a similar timeline here as two weeks from today is when GnR play Vegas obviously and all eyes in the rock world will be on that show on that date. Food for though on this, timetable for GnR could obviously vary, just giving perspective on what the timeline was for the Stones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
