born2boogie Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) The fact that this is on April Fool's Day is the only thing that leads me to believe it could still be the GNR gig, by the way.....like they would do something like this to mess with people, ha!

vegasjunkie2004 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 It's them. I've never heard of Hollywood Roses. Damn I wish I lived in LA. If they play under a different name, they can still say Guns N Roses first show was in Vegas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you can buy them,right but where does a tribute band come up with that kind of dough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But ahahaha I'm not sure what to believe now. THis could so be GNR, guys. I mean it can't be coincidence that this show is on April 1st, It just CANT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
born2boogie Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I decided to start the ordering process but haven't completed it yet, wanted to see what everyone here thought first. I don't even live in LA but man....if it was them... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PLAYA DEL NACHO . WORDPRESS.COM says it's GNR so yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Bond Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Imagine being able to say you saw the actual GNR for $20 when other people are paying the thousands. It's quite crazy. For as quiet as the band is being the whole process is a surprising amount of fun. All kinds of crazy rumours and "what if" situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emybdc Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 However, it's very weird that there is a tribute band with the name of a former band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IkaruFunk Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Not sure if someone noticed, but they used the exact same hastag as in the Adler-cancellation-and-big-announcement-coming-soon post.

Subtle Signs Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I wouldn't pay more than $5 for a GNR tribute band unless it's the version that Axl has had on the road for the last 15 years. I paid around $50 for that many times. I kid Brohams, it's all good. Hollywood Roses 4 Life! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl_morris Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 you guys are clutching massive straws. it'll be a tribute band. nothing more. Cant see GNR contacting a tribute band to use them as an alias. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 While it could still be a joke, I find it hard to fathom how they would use a legit bands (albeit a tribute band) name and logo to advertise a show, and have it end up being the real Guns N' Roses. Seems like the Whiskey just tried to build hype with the Gn'R hashtag and all. I feel slightly insulted for almost falling for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They and any other tribute band are not worth $20 ,IMO and I've never been to LA but I doubt it's cheap to go out for a night there. I'd pay $20 if Tracii Guns or Rob Gardner were sitting in with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
