    GNR/VH 09 Tour Rumor

    HITS Daily Double

    SPREADING DEMOCRACY AROUND THE WORLD: Axl Rose intends to take the current lineup of Guns N’ Roses out on a worldwide stadium tour this summer, industry insiders told rollingstone.com. “Axl has been basically quiet, keeping out of the limelight for almost 15 years,” said Guns manager Irving Azoff in the news item. “People think they know him, but they really only know what has been said about him by questionable people. He is a good guy and often misunderstood—he is a professional who has worked very hard to build and maintain a high creative standard for Guns N’ Roses, which I support. We have some exciting things in the works this year for GNR, I’m looking forward to it.” Right on the heels of this news come unconfirmed reports about a co-headlining tour with GNR and fellow L.A. hard-rock icons Van Halen. If this pairing comes to pass, we’re betting it’ll move some serious ducats. (3/5a)

      The GNR part of the tour will probably be 15 dates and VH's part will be 35 dates, before they cancel the whole thing...

        NOOOOO! VH must open. I'm not waiting 6 hours for Axl to come out just so I can suffer through his 90 minute whine fest before I get to see the main attraction. VH comes out, rocks the house, we all meet up at the bar across the street. WOOT!

          I would hate to see some unknown guitar punk playing with Axl mop the floor with the remnants of Eddie Van Halen...

          They'd be better off with Marley's son or... Britney Spears, even...

          At least with Britney the tickets will sell...

            If it was REAL Guns n Roses, that would be a hell of a show. I have absolutely no interest in seeing "Hired Goons n Rose"

                Oh please, let it happen!


                If Ed carried such a hard-on over Dave for 20 odd years, he's gonna want to KILL Axl Pose before the 2nd show!!

                He'll find out what LSD is for real!

                  No, not in a million years.

                  Axl would never tour with a band that risked stealing his thunder.

                    Problem is he doesn't have any thunder left to steal. The only reason people will see this "GnR" tour is to see the meltdown. He should just name his band "The Other 1/5".

                      Azoff manages both bands...we'll see...

                      And we'll get a new definition of the term "ego clashing"

                          This doesn't fit VH's timeline... Ed will require at least 2-3 years of couch time and honey-do's for a honeymoon.

                            And if Edward and his fat little boy don't get their chops up to speed, any half-assed wankers will mop the casino floors with them...

                              I can't see Axl's ego in the same building with Ed and Dave's ego. I know years ago when GnR toured with Metallica, Hetfield took the high road but hated his guts. I don't see Ed or Dave keeping it to themselves.
