patiencepatience Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 KLOS just tweeted that the announcement is pushing to Thursday. I'm sure they want to do right by Ariana tragedy and let some room build before the announcement. I pray to god it's a 30th AFD show at the Rose Bowl. And I would be floored as fuck if Izzy joins them for some of the Summer '17 North America tour. Hmmmmm........... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I really love about the Illusion tour are all the kickass bands (aside from Skid Row) that Axl brought like Faith No More, NIN, Smashing Pumpkins, Soundgarden, Metallica, etc. Just a fucking legendary opening lineup there. Best they could do this time for the biggest reunion tour in history was get The Cult, a near-retirement The Who, and a bunch of other forgettable bands. Seems like this stuff is an after-thought for the band now. LOL at the revisionist history going on here.....axl didn't bring Metallida as am opening band, get real.

BlueJean Baby Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Well I tweeted a reply to KLOS, saying I think it is an arena tour with The Who in the US, and that I hope they come to Atlanta and they immediately liked my tweet....hmmm ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why in the fuck would either band do an arena tour in the US with the other when they could easily sell out arenas on their own....and what does the who have to do with the teaser vids they have released? no offense to you personally but this whole co headlining tour in the US is just completely unfounded and ridiculous.

No offense taken, but the Atlanta radio station was saying they heard it was in the works about a month or two ago. Just guessing, we will see on Thursday.

Co-headlining tour, metallica went on first. The tour happened because Axl and Slash are fans of Metallica and Lars liked Guns. Didn't feel like typing all that out in the original post. So yes, technically they weren't an opening band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how I thought it went down. What actually made that tour come together then? From what I recall, Metallica went on first to avoid dealing with Axl's tardiness.

Metallica didnt want to deal with Axl´s lateness so it was an easy negotiation who went first. the opener was Faith No More on most dates.

Edit: For further clarification, they did get their start on the Sunset Strip. What better way to announce something huge through a billboard on the Strip?

Fede Posted May 24, 2017 Author Share Posted May 24, 2017 (edited) KLOS is talking about it almost every 20 minutes... Last time they took a call. Radio Announcer: What do you think is the Big Announcement We got for you guys thursday??? Caller: They will get together... Radio Announcer: You should know they'd been touring together since last year... Caller: That's not Guns N' Roses, I mean Guns N' Roses will get together. Radio Announcer: Thank you very much, our next song... The radio announcer is reading twits, she yawned about a DVD, and she said "I'll keep my fingers crossed this Appetite for Destruction thing is the big announcement we got for you next Thursday". She says they don't know what time the announcement will be. Edited May 24, 2017 by Fede 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
