Anybody else figure that GNR will make some sort of announcement tomorrow? Presale tickets go on sale Thursday and the regular online sale starts Friday. I'm hoping they announce CD II to coincide with the Tour, but we should at least hear something at any rate.

If this happens, I will literally swear to God never to criticize anything GNR ever again...ever.

Did the make an announcement before ticket sales began for the previous tours?

Just checked the HTGTH news archive and, strangely enough, we're not far off from what went down for the 2006 NA Tour. The Florida dates were the first to pop up in mid September, and went onsale shortly after. The "official" tour announcement came from management on the 29th, with the majority of the dates going onsale the following week.

Sounds like an announcement might come when they are ready to add a bunch of dates, perhaps in a week or two. Wonder why a few dates kind of leak out first. Maybe they know that a certain market will sell, so they have tickets go on sale and then when they are sold out they announce the tour and point to the fact they've already sold out a couple of shows.
