Packersfan#4#12 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Probably wishful thinking but Im really digging The Pretty Reckless right now and was thinking they would be an awesome opening act for Gnr.

RussTCB Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I thought it would have been a really good idea to get a band like Royal Blood or Rival Sons to open the current tour. Alas, I got stuck with AiC at all 3 of my shows and some people got stuck with the likes of Skrillex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twice with Layne, once without. I just didn't need to see a Layne-less AiC three more times in one year is all haha 46 minutes ago, ZoSoRose said: Royal Blood was my most wanted opener.

I don't see why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
default_ Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) They should call openers that has anything to do with their musical genre, fuck, Guns N' Roses is a hard rock band, no hard rock fan wants to listen to a fuckin emo band or a fuckin DJ. There are so many bands that could fit perfect with a GNR concert: Michael Monroe has an amazing career and is one of their main influences, the guy even playd on Bad Obsession. THE DEAD DAISIES, amazing hard rock band that had Frank, Richard and Dizzy as members and Slash as guest and need some help to promote their new album. Steel Panther is more than a fit. Theres plenty more, but I think these two are a perfect fit, unlike those emo fuckin bands. Edited August 12, 2016 by default_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marlingrl03 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 The Struts were pretty good and the lead singer was very humble thanking Guns for having them open for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigD62 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I was hoping Spinal Tap would open a few shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JY2016 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Although their great frontman Shannon Hoon died unfortunately more than 20 years ago, why not have Blind Melon as an opener? A great band with GNR history and their new singer is not that bad either. I love their albums, especially their live records, great vibe...

nonok Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I'd also love to see Royal Blood open for Guns, but they seem like the type of band to open for newer acts, or start headlining themselves. Another new band that deserves recognition would be Moriaty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the one album they did with him is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
