Will GNR be announcing all the North American tour dates in short order?

Will GNR be announcing all the North American tour dates in short order? It sure would make things a lot more convenient for all of us who have to travel to see them. Just to book holidays, hotels and whatnot. I've really got my fingers crossed that they come back to Van.

Is it just me or do bands normally announce tour dates at the same time rather than one new date been drip fed every few weeks?

You should know by now that Guns isn't a normal band. Things aren't announced until they are all 100%. At least they are giving us something...

Oh I know that but why not make sure the whole tour's 100% then make the announcement? Think they were testing the water with ticket sales on a couple of gigs before announcing more?

I agree. No time for it I guess. Dates aren't that far away...

I find it curious though that FM96 (London, Ontario) has been playing WAY more GnR in the past two weeks then they have played in two years. Seems to run this way when concerts roll out (at least here). Jungle is on now.

Prior to playing it, she mentioned that "Guns n Roses have recently extended thier tour". hope that doesn't mean the same tour they've been touring for years (but of course...I'm there!)

Anything from CD? SOD perhaps?

Edit: I just checked and they played Paradise at 3am and Jungle over 12 hours later. Nothing in between....

I think this phased system of releasing dates is designed to sustain any form of interest a US tour creates.

My guess, and it's only a guess, is that they put the midwest & Florida dates onsale first since they're in a bit slower markets. Chicago got sacked by the bad economy, and it would make sense to give sales and buzz around here a jump, before the big tour announcement comes.

They know MSG, Philly, etc. will most likely sell out. When those go onsale, tickets will probably be scarce within days. As we've seen in past tours, the midwest is a bit trickier.

Either way, I think we'll get a big announcement within this coming week.

I honestly don't like them posting shows one at a time. I have a large arena 10 min. away from my house but

if they're not playing near me I will gladly drive for hours to see them, But I want to know the dates so I can decide.
