Guns N Roses

[McLovin]

I've been listening to these guy alot lately and just wondering if they'll be coming down for a tour of some sort. They always seem to be travelling around Asia and the USA. Wouldn't mind seeing them live...

I'm having trouble finding a site that has their tour information...

ta :crazy:

 

[Ron Jeremy]

I heard from a poster on here that they were?, it would only Be Axl and Dizzy Reed though.

I'd be there fo sho!!!!!!

 

[ledzep]

Well, they toured Europe doing all the festivals earlier in the year
They've just started a North American tour.
Axl kept saying the album will drop this year, but I think it's looking less and less likely
Not enough Tuesdays left in the year I don't think.
If and when the album does come out, and they do another tour, then they might come out to Australia.

www.mygnrforum.com is the best place for ANY Gunners news, especially show dates...

My bet is that they definitely will tour because the US concert scene has been burned a few times by Axl and the backers probably aren't as faithful as they were, thus they will continue to do a roaring trade in Europe, South America and most definitely Australia - I cannot wait for that.

It seems as if Axl has excorcised his demons and is getting closer and closer to dropping Chinese Dem, I know, I know, its been said for the last 10 years.....but a big step in releasing music is that in a new HARLEY DAVIDSON tv ad, 'Better' a new GnR track is played as the music throughout the ad. If that isn't a step towards Chi Dem then I don't know what is.....apparently, the last time I checked mygnrforum.com the rumours were that it was being mastered and to drop this year.....odds are in anyone's thinking that they'd drop it at Christmas - it will definitely sell regardless of whether its a crap album or not and this will only be magnified a thousand times by the Christmas buying spree.....fingers crossed I guess, I want to hear it, I love the new songs

I still think the band should be called Axl Rose or something new as it isnt Gunners as I loved them, but thats another topic.

When Gunners were at their peak they toured Aus once. I doubt they will come here unless the album A. Actually gets released and B. They complete the subsoquent support tours in the US.

If its one thing I have learnt is that Axl is one erratic bloke and you never know if it will happen.

Also remeber in 1999 when he released 'oh my God' for the movie 'End of days' starring the big man Arnie?? People thought something was going to happen then aswell!

Its just to hard to tell on this one, quite literally everyones guess is as good as the next.

 

[Cupid Stunt]

If it was going to be ready for Xmas it should be on the net in the next week or two. If it isn't you can forget that date & wait for the next rumour.

 

[ledzep]

Just on "oh my god", i wish there was a proper mix of that
it's such a cool song, so pissed off

 

[Simo]

I would hope there is a better mix....I thought that song sucked in comparison to real gunners songs. My opinion only of course.

 

[Ron Jeremy]

God this is worse then waiting for Borat!!!

 

[sydraider]

I really couldnt give two sh*ts.

Axl is a wanker, albeit a cool one at that but still a wanker.
If he had slash with him to reproduce the magic, then it would be worth the wait, otherwise, he is flogging a dead horse.

 

[Simo]

Throw in Izzy stradlin as well to really bring back the team!

 

[carcharias]

weren't offspring gonna steal the name "chinese democracy" for one their album name as a joke about 10 years ago now?

 

[Once Dead]

Izzy has been doing guest spots at Gunners shows in the past year

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Izzy back is a big bonus imo.

Yeah I remember that! Funny stuff.

As for Izzy being back, well he has been doing guest spots but I was referring to him as the being part of the writing proccess.

Whilst Axl was the king of the ballads, check out how many songs have Stradlins name in the writing credits on the UYI albums and from what I understand earlier stuff aswell.

Izzy also played with Slash and Duff in the early days of velvet revolver, in hearing interviews about him from Slash and Duff I get the imnpression he is just happy to be a bit of a freelancer and not be commited to anything.

Funny have you heard the interview about how Izzy quit the band in the early 90's??

After putting up with Axl Izzy went to his manager and asked how much money he had in the bank. When told he was doing quite well he said 'im outta here'!

Hi all.
I have a Guns'N'Roses question so I hope someone can help.

The 2 'Use Your Illusion' dvds (1 & 2) ... are they worth buying? I ask because I'd like a Gunners live dvd, but with both dvd's, they appear to be half a concert each ('UYI 1' has the first half, while 'UYI 2' has the second half - or so it seems to me).

Wouldn't it have made much more sense releasing ONE dvd with the whole show instead of TWO dvds with half a show each? Thing is, there are songs on both dvds that I'd like to see, but don't want to pay virtually double the normal price for a live concert dvd.

the dvds are NOT worth buying. i know because i bought the first one.
the sound is crap on them, compared to the acdc live at donnington, or motley crue's carnival of sins dvd, it lacks power and is uninspiring. its almost as if its in mono sound. lame!

visually also, poor. lalot of axl in his underpants and the lighting of the show was poor to begin with. id rate it (dvd 1) a 4 out of 10.

basically they are boring. burn a copy. dont spend your own money.....

why are they separate?


if you buy 1 thing with 2 discs..its what 40-50 bucks.
you buy 2 30 dollar discs.........60. thats 10 dollars profit for geffen/axl rose.....every time.

and when has axl rose ever done anything logical?

 

[Nuke]

I had a feeling that was the case (2 seperate dvds instead of 1 'normal' one).

Thanks for that. You've saved me some money!

Ill give the other side of the coin. I have had both on video, laserdisc and DVD.

I love them and if you like Gunners you will enjoy them both.

Sure 1 disc would be better but its about the bucks I guess. Unfortunately Izzy isnt on them as he left before they did these concerts and Gilby Clarke is on rythm guitar.

 

[Nuke]

Okay then, I'll ask another question.

Is there any other GNR live dvds?
I have their set they did for the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert, but it's only a few songs in length and not played to a regular Gunners audience.
