Calcy Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Any announcement I would imagine would be after Download.

People will buy tickets anyway regardless. The UK love festivals.Chances are the tour will be promoted by Clear Channel the same promoters for Download. Standard procedure is that any tour is not annouced until close to/after a festival with that band in to ensure maximum sales for the festival where $$$$$s are at stake. The rest of the download bill is not particually strong imo so they will need to milk this exclusive as long as poss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grubby Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 I know with my luck it won't happen but I'll be in London in mid Aug. and it would be sweet to see GNR' while I was there. I'm sure they will be long gone but I'll hope until I see dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
