GN'R popularity cant be compared to The Cult's and I dont see why they have to stick to the 80's. We're not in the 80's. Flawed logic. I never said they couldn't have gotten a younger band just that The Cult is a perfect pairing for them as an opener....There music mesh's as it it straight ahead RnR and they have a history together...no flaw in my logic just as there is nothing wrong with you wishing for a younger band......

killuridols Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 For the prices they are charging the tickets, they should get Madonna as the opener If I'm gonna spend thousands of dollars on a show like that (given that you're flying from somewhere else in the planet that is not the US), I expect they give value to my ticket and that includes the opening act.

BadApples87 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 That would be great. I would like to see them play with GNR in the USA. Get Matt on the sticks! As for those requesting more 'current' bands to open. meh..........There are no good 'new' current bands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janrichmond Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 The Cult opened for GNR in Milton Keynes,UK, in 93. They were REALLY good,even if you don't class yourself as a Cult fan(i didn't) they really sounded good. They also had Soul Asylum and Blind Melon, a great concert from the Skin n Bones leg! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom-Ass Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 3 hours ago, axlslash said: Matt hasn't been the Cult's drummer for decades. Not an FU at all. The Cult will be their current lineup. Even back in the day he was hardly the drummer.. He joined after Sonic Temple was recorded so I think he was just the touring drummer for that album and may have been on Ceremony too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitha_whiskey Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Cult, AIC, Guns. That would be a fuckin great lineup for the full tour imo! Fuckin love Cult! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silent Jay Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 just quoting a fb post: Quote I saw The Cult last weekend in Detroit and Ian suggested that there would be big news for Canadian fans of the band. Maybe The Cult will be opening the GNR show(s) in Toronto? Fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-Money Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 3 hours ago, Slash787 said: I don't think so he would be Cults Drummer, he left that band ages ago. its a big FU that he is not involved, He has played on 2 full records and then playing with Slash and Duff for so many years and so many albums. Honestly he contributed so much more than Frank to GNR. I really don't get how Slash and Duff agreed to play with Frank and not Matt. The smoke in the screens is starting to clear (I think). Sorum has said several times that he wouldn't do a reunion without Adler. And Adler hasn't said a word. Duff was the logical connection between GNR and Alice In Chains. Matt Sorum is the logical connection between GNR and the Cult (unless it was a Slash/Atsbury connection, as they collaborated on "Ghost"). But yeah, I don't see Duff and Slash being in a GNR/Cult show without Matt's approval, so something's got to be up. I could see Matt being a guest for BOTH bands at these shows. I'm really starting to think Frank and Richard are insurance cards/smokescreens at this point. BUT this is GNR land. Anything goes. I could be way off.

BrayWyatt Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 When the cult were one of the opening bands for gnr at milton keynes in 1993 they were rotten. I hope they do not support them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
izzy92 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Just so that everybody is aware, the Cult is opening for GNR in Toronto July 16th and 17th at Rogers Centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6lake sa66ath Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Based on the comment from the Blabbermouth article I'm guessing it's just the Canadian date/s they're supporting them on, otherwise how else could Billy Duffy get away with revealing such a spoiler?!
