"As of three years ago, the relationship between Guns N’ Roses’ founding lineup was so sour Axl Rose chose to sit out of the band’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Now, though, Rose has let bygones be bygones, and, in 2016, he’ll give fans the reunion they have long desired.

According to multiple sources with knowledge of the band’s plans, Guns N’ Roses will reunite to headline Coachella 2016. Meanwhile, Billboard reports that the band also plans to embark on a stadium tour spanning as many as 25 dates.

The band’s reunion lineup is unclear, though Axl, Slash, and Duff McKagan are all involved, sources tell CoS. Matt Sorum is believed to be behind the kit in place of original drummer Steven Adler. An official announcement is imminent..."

I'm good with them not reuniting. I might go see it if it was at a smaller venue, but Coachella sucks.

 

[bsman]

May we assume this means Axl is back on his meds?

 

[Help!I'maRock!]

No Izzy. Fuck that.

 

[DFB]

They only had 1 good album. Who cares?

 

[Dexter Inferno]

Money.

And I don't believe it until it actually happens.

They only had 1 good album. Who cares?

There’s a good album worth of material spread over the Use Your Illusion albums. It just gets lost in the filler tracks.

As for the reunion, meh. I don’t do festivals. GnR should do what Prince did when he did his LA residency—$25 tickets, including fees. If Prince can strongarm a low-fee deal from the vile motherfuckers at Live Nation than GnR can.

 

[mongooz]

at this point i would have to ask......who cares?

 

[el diablo]

Oh for christs sake..WHY? Axel sounds like crap these days, Slash is getting a bit sloppy live, and GnR was great for one freakin album. And it wasn't live. Don't do it. Let the angst and bitterness live on as your legend.
OR, do it, and we can always hope some trigger point from years past will start an onstage brawl.

 

[wagdog]

Hopefully Axl will reunite with his voice in time for the tour.

 

[OGG]

OGG predicted this.

 

[Denverdave]

*yawn*

 

[pmc100]

What needs to happen is that Axl shows up late to every show then storms off after 2 songs at Coachella after turning up 3 hours late. That will be a proper G'n'R reunion

 

[micwalt]

Could
Not
Care
Less

 

[mongooz]

Hopefully Axl will reunite with his voice in time for the tour.

that's presuming he ever HAD a voice. or are you referring to his SCREECH?

 

[Flatspotter]

Will Kathleen Turner be there?

 

[mongooz]

Will Kathleen Turner be there?

he should get Yngwie to play guitar.......then they could go as the donut brothers.
