*Rumour* US Dates In November....

[fallingred85]

From his twitter a few minutes ago:

"Hearing talk of possible Guns N Roses US dates in the midwest in November, just a handful of possible dates. More news when I get it."

waiting for an update!

Good to hear

Cool, but Eddie Trunk's sources aren't worth a grain of salt IMO.

Would make sense though, coming off of a handful of South American dates.

Hopefully it'll get past the "talk" stage

That may be so but Jim Koplik, part of an organization agreeable to "a comprehensive touring agreement in which Guns 'N Roses would perform at various...venues.", expressed an expectation for GN’R to perform in the US “during fall” (which is fairly compatible).

Midwest huh? It should seem Axl really loves the Midwest since the only show so far in the U.S. was in Sturgis for some reason. About the first time in my life living in South Dakota has had an upside...

[MANETS.FOREVER]

Very interesting.

I really hope the October 11th thing really happens.

Let's remember:

A deal is done for the band releasing CD2 the 11:th of october. The album has a totally different name though.

The project is currently in progress and has been worked on since the tour ended, the members are told to keep quiet not to blow the thing with leaks like it was done with CD.

Tell us what you know.

I will not do any claims of being an insider or certain about something - just passing a story on what I heard.

I happened to be on a garden-party with people from the music business a couple of weeks ago where I became involved in a discussion and someone claimed this. The man talking was pretty drunk, and I didn´t have time to find out if he was some kind of executive or involved in any record-company-thing of some sort. He looked like that, well dressed, but at the same time, pretty "rowdy" to the looks, tattooed, ear piercings and stuff.

Myself is an industry worker that happened to get invited by knowing some people, so I didn´t know almost any of the people there.

I am not the biggest of guns n roses fan either (I was when I was younger though), but I got a little curious about what the band has been doing lately and happened to end up here.

This man talking seemed to be pretty sure about his thing though, talking about the upcoming tour and how this record should be released and the things I tell in the first post. We didn´t meet more that evening.

And the following, he sent on a PM:

I am danish by origin, and have moved to some friends to work overseas in the US. Some of my friends friends apparently knew some people so we got invited to this party that was hosted in LA - don´t know exactly the whereabouts though, as we came in from the weekend from San Fransisco. As I said, I have no further details, we did not meet more that evening and we went out to club later on. I guess I could hear about around my friends, but I don´t think that they know who it is either, I was the only one from my crew that was talking to him at this moment, there were around 4-5 persons who heard the same as me.

As I just re-gained interest in this band, I might as well help with what I heard. I cannot guarantee the truth, or anything like that. As I said, I am only passing on information from a late night. And the things passed on is all I have heard. He mentioned the secrecy around the project and how the members have been told to lay low about working on the album.

Now that you mention it, I think that might have been what he said. He talked about Chinese Democracy and praised it as a fantastic album, but I think he talked on about going with another name for the new album, wich apparently already had been sealed and he was clearly closely involved in it, no question about that! it might have been that name...i was also pretty drunk at the time, so I don´t remember too clearly to be able to give out a promise.

Nothing big though, but still... worth paying attention.

Dude...it´s the same old "friends´ friends" story, how can you believe it?. You people never learn . I´m sure that after all the leaks and fuckups that happened with Chinese Democracy Axl will be very carefull and won´t allow this to happen again.

AND IF OCTOBER 11 COMES AND NOTHING HAPPENS, DON´T BLAME AXL BUT YOURSELVES FOR BELIEVING ALL THE SHIT YOU READ.

[batman007]

Good to hear after a hard days of work.

[Steamboat]

hopefully

[gunsguy]

Hope so but I wouldn't put any faith into some ramblings from a radio man. Untill we hear it from Guns it aint shit

[MANETS.FOREVER]

Yeah, a radio man... Who played I.R.S. on the radio on 2005, which led to the darknemus leak on the next year.

A radio man who made Axl leave the Guns N' Roses rehearsal just to attend to his interview.

A radio man who told before the vast majority that late 2008 was the Chinese Democracy final release date.

Yeah, what a loser that radio man is.

[sailaway]

lol manets killed the radio star

[Birk]

Bring on Chicago motherfuckers!!!!

[Birk]

I believe in when they played in 2002 in Chicago it was in Oct or Nov, and the last time they played(was that 06?) in Chicago was in Nov also, its been a while, i remembering seeing them in NY at the Hammerstein the first night, but i finally have internet back after a while...but i would not be surprised to see them played at the end of the year here.

If anyone can correct me, when was the last 2 Midwest tours for GNR?

I never once said the man was a loser, I simply stated that he is a radio man, are you saying he is not?

Your faith in him is clear, good for you. I take the other road waiting for official things rather than ANYONE else but it's my way not yours I suppose

[Guest NewGNRnOldGNR]

I simply stated that he is a radio man

Manets made a valid point. Not only did you acceptably outline his profession but you dismissively referred to his reportings as “ramblings” (which brings in to question his integrity and credibility as a source of legitimate rock related rumblings). Trunk in the past has proven at times to have been of great use to fans of GN’R (as so well illustrated by Manets). Personally I think his reports demand a greater level of respect than the contempt applied to fringe journalists exploiting the enthusiasm of the online community.

You have to consider also Trunk isn’t the only recent source of US rumblings. Jim Koplik, whom I would regard to be very reputable and trustworthy given his position of prominence within the aspect of the industry in question, also alluded to the possibility of late 2011 US appearances.

[tippin]

Wow double g! So now you're playing the waiting for something official car huh? I remember back when you were the king of the bullshit rumor starters before CD came out...
