Seriously? So if they play to some friends and family and people in the industry you don't even want to see Guns at all? I don't get that.

I do want to see them, but considering the time and the effort I am putting into these Vegas shows I would hang around until they played locally rather than make a 3,500 mile trip and drop over $1,000 in the process

I think it could happen after Vegas, if there is one.  But who knows, it's pretty common for a band, especially one that has not played together in 23 years, to have a small club gig before going on tour....so it could happen before Vegas....either is possible at this point.

 

That being said, if there is one, it will most likely be a private, invite only event....so no reason to complain about it because there is a 99% chance most fans couldn't get in if they wanted to.

it is still going to be the first glimpse at GNR, there is going to be video of it everywhere, I want to see the first performance of Axl and Slash together with my own eyes

I am not gonna lie, if they have a secret show I am inclined to sell my Vegas tickets, I am traveling about 3,500 Miles for what is "supposed" to be the first show in this reunion, having a show before that is messed up  and is not what the Vegas shows were billed as

I am thinking my after party on April 9th is going to be between my sheets, I am anticipating a sleep deprived weekend, hoping to catch up on those ZZZZ's after that last show

if by killing it you mean KILLING IT, then yeah

we're getting what we've wanted for a long time, and the icing on the cake is that he's potentially filling in to front for another one of the biggest rock bands of all time. he also looks like he's gotten himself in shape.

 

stop bitching! let's see what happens first.

I was definitely down for any hybrid of GNR that involved the "old" guys, I assumed Izzy wasn't going to be down for a full time thing since that wasn't his thing, but if it is true that Izzy is out over not getting paid enough or not being wanted, it is putting a damper on the whole thing for me

What news that Izzy is holding out over money?

http://www.alternativenation.net/izzy-stradlin-rumored-want-money-reunite-guns-n-roses/

first all of this AC/DC crap, is he serious? shouldn't he be worried about rehearsing and playing with the GNR guys, now the news that Izzy is out over money issues, you know it is Axl who is holding the cards on that one

confusion regarding the April 1st Hollywood Roses show at the Whisky a Go Go we have decided it's best to refund all ticket buyers. Hollywood Roses will still be playing the Whisky on April 1st and tickets will be available at the door on the night of the show for $20. If you still wish to attend simply shoot us an email at mproductionsrocks@gmail.com or call (310) 652-4202 and we will reserve your tickets for you to be purchased at the door.

To be 100% clear HOLLYWOOD ROSES is a Guns N' Roses tribute band. Guns N' Roses are not playing The Whisky. We are sorr

$20 to see a cover band is alot of money, especially since they are playing in May and they are only charging $13, I would think on this short notice they would charge like $10 to get people in the door

99% of the people in the crowd would have no clue what Reckless Life is, but that would be awesome to hear at any point in the concert

but yea, Welcome to the Jungle, HAS to be the opening number

this rumor did not die? you mean there is actually a chance Axl is gonna be the lead singer for AC/DC? this has a disaster all over it

What made you think that?

well if your intentions are to try and get to California cuz you are on a budget or you want an adventure it is commendable, however the wanting to meet the band is putting them on the spot and they really should have nothing to do with your adventure on a personal level

don't ask to meet the band, it is sounding like you are only doing this for the publicity which I am sure you are

AC/DC will open for GnR for all their shows with Axl singing for both bands.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lmao

if you start a rumor like that and say you heard it from a good source I am pretty sure alot of publications are going to quote you on that, and Alternative Nation is going to say it is a done deal

Anyone knows a good place for vegetarian food in vegas? Like burgers n shit?

ha I am in the same boat

Happy Cow is a good resource : http://www.happycow.net/north_america/usa/nevada/las_vegas/

as is Yelp:  http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=vegan&find_loc=Las+Vegas%2C+NV&ns=1

it seems on the strip there is not a whole lot of choices, but if you have a car and don't mind taking a trip there is a bunch around the city

I think there is a better chance of DJ Ashba fronting AC/DC and Axl Rose passing on the Guns N Roses "reunion" and Justin Bieber taking his place

If GNR were really playing, why would there be a need to cancell Adler first. They could just suprise everyone and come on instead of Adler.

was the Adler show selling ok? as far as I can tell there were still tickets available

having a GNR cover band on April Fools day with all of the hype around it is sure to get a bigger crowd than Adler with some other bands

That kind of pisses me off because I also wanted to attend the very first reunion show on April 8th in Vegas but I'm almost 100% convinced they'll be there.

However, objectively, I have to admit it would be a really cool thing to do. I almost bought a ticket last night, even if I knew I couldn't attend, I sort of regret not doing it now.

T-Mobile Arena or Guns N Roses definitely advertised the Vegas gigs as their first "reunion" shows or whatever, having this club show beforehand is definitely going to mean it was false advertising

another really strong giveaway of GNR actually showing up at this gig, if you look at Whiskey-a-go-go's facebook page, people are making comments like " I still think there is a strong possibility of a surprise here. I was willing to spend 20 bucks to find out"  and it is getting liked by Whiskey a-Go-Go, also if people are asking " Is this an April fools joke and Gnr are really going to play? " Whiskey a-go-go is not denying GNR is playing and is only liking the comments

GNR has a history at the Whiskey-a Go-Go,

Adler supposed to play but getting cancelled and a GNR "cover band" playing in his place

Adler keeping quiet when if he was not included in the "reunion" he would be all over the media telling how much he is hating Axl

GNR starting their "tour" the following week

April Fools Day=

GNR is likely playing the Whiskey a Go-Go on April 1st

I am hoping it is not going to be Guns N Roses as I want to see them in their first "reunion" on April 8th, but if I am a betting man I will say this Hollywood Roses is going to play and the actual GNR is going to also show up and play a chunk of songs

just wait until the show has started and scalpers will be selling tickets below face value right outside the gates.

you'll be able to choose any tickets you want. don't buy the first you see, walk around and see what different guys have.

remember, their tickets are only worth what someone's willing to pay, you set the market.

i've gotten into countless huge 'sold out' shows this way over the past 20+ years. there's no such thing as sold out.

there is no way in hell there are tickets going to be selling for below face, for some lame run of the mill concert you are always able to get a good deal, but for a historic concert like this it is going to be hard to get, on Stubhub the prices have been going up and the inventory is going down.

and yes it is true you might get a really good deal on the street before the show, possibly below face, however if you are going to find this deal I am going to bet my life the tickets are going to be a fake, in this day and age I would never in a million years buy a ticket on the street unless you are able to go in with the person selling it and pay them after you are in

I am happy there is no major promotion of this tour, like "Doritos Presents the Guns N Roses reunion!"

but I  am upset if it is true about them not getting along

potential first time seeing Slash and Axl on stage together in 23 years, the first Coachella show was the "big deal" ticket until the Vegas shows were announced

I wouldn't doubt that it was McCartney he usually plays new venues when they open

McCartney played a baseball stadium in Minneapolis in 2014 so I am pretty sure he is not going to be back so soon

Coldplay still has alot of open dates on their tour so I wouldn't be surprised if it is them, though I am not sure they are considered "'rock"

and Pearl Jam is not a stadium type of band unless it is a Historic stadium like Fenway or Wrigley which they are playing this year

it is amazing  there is no other "old" video that is even close, it seems just about every video in the top 100 is these over produced  "pop" songs that have come out in the last 5 or 6 years and November Rain which is 25 years old

I thought that as well, at least a 30th Appetite For Destruction reunion, if this "reunion" is going to go well I can definitely see them having an Arena tour the following year of playing Appetite from Start to Finish which would be awesome
