  1. Past hour
  2. Not that long - the tour started in September 2017, but its only been 28 shows to date (All in Europe). The Stones only do 12-15 shows a year nowadays. The Stones usually play about 2 and a half hours. Most of the openers I've seen with the Stones did about 45-50 mins, definitely none for over an hour.

    Awww, so sorry to hear this...very sad. Poor sweet baby. 💗
  5. October date at MetLife Stadium or even Gillette??? That will definitely be right in the middle of football season. The Giants have home games on the 15th and 29th of September. Also weather wise for MetLife is bad in October. For the money the Stones charge, I don't know if it'll be worth it. As far as GNR, I think you are being too harsh. I thought the NITL was great. They had a successful tour.

  6. "What Movie Did You Watch?" - 2019 Edition

    EvanG replied to Black Sabbath's topic in SEEN THAT MOVIE TOO

    Mid 90s. Good movie. Somewhat recognizable.
  7. Sept/Oct are the months heavily rumoured for the rescheduled shows. Guns opening for the stones would be a disaster. Having seen the stones and guns a few times each in the last 3 years, guns would be shown as a bloated circus. The Stones are still a band and playing as a group off one and other... I saw them 5 times on the last round of gigs and each show was better than the previous one. Keith and Ronnie are playing great, Mick still has the pipes and this harp playing is fucking excellent. Songs like midnight rambler are sounding as good as they ever have. Having seen 3 of the NITL gigs, I was bored during each of them at points, rambling instrumentals, boring covers, bad singing, the songs have lost their groove and slash is wanking more than playing at times. There were the odd few moments of brilliance but not enough to go see them again (Izzy would change my mind) When I was in my teens, Guns were the new Stones, the stones were a Vegas act with zero danger and jokes being made about the steel wheelchairs tour etc... Now the Stones are old bluesmen, sounding great together, keef is STILL fucking dangerous & Guns are the Vegas act...

  9. Rolling Stones Eternal Touring Thread / US TOUR POSTPONED

    Fitha_whiskey replied to Zint's topic in MY WORLD

    Maybe so. Most rockers come from nothing and want to get the money and the chicks and all that. Give me some music that I like and I’ll happily buy it.
  10. soon started following Can you imagine Guns N' Roses opening for The Rolling Stones show on their US No Filter Tour 2019?
  11. I figure the Stones chose openers with singers who can sing? j/k But I am serious when I say that NITL Guns hasn't done anything to demonstrate that its not all about the money. And opening isnt good money. I think it starts and ends there, sadly.

  12. Rumors of Izzy & Steven returning?

    Both are wrong for the job..it needs ti be Steven and or Matt to bring it alive more

    craiggunslover replied to craiggunslover's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS

    Richard and frank are session players we all know it they know it...for guns its like slash said many moons ago it was the only line up that could've worked and the chemistry was through the roof ...
  14. I have doubts the Stones will be touring this year. First it takes three months for someone to recuperate from the surgery that Jagger had. They'll need time to rehearse. Second, stadiums will start to be busy around August for preseason NFL games. You then go into the NFL season in September. Unless the Stones schedule dates when football teams are playing away, it'll be tough for the tour not to affect the NFL season. If the Stones do not announce the reschedule dates in May or even early June then I don't think they'll be able to pull off a stadium tour for this year.

    I really wish frank would be removed from this lineup. Brain is higher up in terms of skill, but frank doesnt have any rnr look or swagger.

    Lol that bit of duff saying hes a conductor from the use your illusion video of japan, i wish i could turn that into a gif.
  19. Gee how long has the no filter tour been going for?. I think the potential issue would be how long guns play for?. I think a 2 hour packed set with no covers would be doable, depending how long the stones then play for?. Im also wondering what this supposed gnr tour is called?.

    Hello darkness my old friend...
  26. I can’t imagine this band doing anything cool at this point.

  28. To start with, Guns' role as an opening act for The Stones was actually secured in 2006 for two Germany gigs during A Bigger Bang Tour, but Keith infamously fell off a tree and theese shows were cancelled. For sure, now Guns N' Roses is a much bigger band than in 2006, but before you'll say that the idea is too far-fetched, listen how well it could play out. I mean, it probably won't ever happen due to money/contract obligations/schedule or something, but this year just seems so right to do this. Firstly, No Filter Tour was postponed from original April-June dates due to Jagger's surgery. Rumors say that it'll start in July, so if the dates' order will be be the same, in mid September The Stones might be heading to New York or Chicago just before Guns N ' Roses festival gig in Louisville. Solid spots for the participation. Best Guns'-oriented choice is California's Rose Bowl gig, but apparantly it would be in August, so too early to catch, but, yet again, the dates are subject to change. Secondly, from the band's perspective I don't see any "status" problems, as The Stones is Slash's favourite band and Axl respects them for sure. At third, from historical perspective, it also would be really cool, as it may take place exactly 30 years after the previous joint gig in 1989. At fourth, Guns' are planning small tour in September-October, so they will be rehearsing prior to that and what could be better than a warm-up concert with 10-15 song set. Axl usually doesnt't warm up properly, so maybe this mini-gig will allow him to do that. At last, it will benefit for The Stones - viewers must be pissed off because of tour's delay, having a high ticket price in mind, but would be really pleased with two biggest bands on the planet at one concert. All in all, I know it all sounds wierd and unrealistic, but still just a right thing to do. At least to try. If I were in either band's management, I would make some calls for sure.

  29. Rumors of Izzy & Steven returning?

    EvanG replied to craiggunslover's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS

    Some people seem to think that if Izzy comes back, it will all be great again, but even with the AFD line up back in the saddle, it will never live up to people's expectations and nostalgia after more than 30 years.
  30. No way can I afford all these lithographs, but I am thinking about putting a collection of tickets from the tour as I'm sure people retained extra stubs. Question would be what percentage of actual tickets vs electronic means of entry? Is this viable and should I start with a leg of the tour first?
