Guns N’ Roses Are Announcing Worldwide Reunion Tour in a Matter of Days!
After Guns N’ Roses‘ official Twitter page posted that cryptic message hinting the band’s classic lineup is set for a massively-anticipated reunion, a new report is claiming that the announcement of a global classic GN’R tour is set to drop in just a matter of days.
According to Dish Nation, the group will first headline several major festivals in Europe and US, only to embark on a worldwide headlining tour to mark 30 years of GN’R.
This somewhat matches the previous report claiming that the band’s first reunion show will take place in Portugal earlier next year.
According to a new report from Blitz, the massively-anticipated and massively-rumored reunion of the classic Guns N’ Roses lineup will happen next year, with the first show set to take place in Portugal in early 2016.
The source points out that one of the country’s “top promoters”went to London to negotiate a $1.5 million deal for a two-hour live concert by the band.
An insider noted: “Slash and Axl have verbally agreed to get things together again and reform the original band. The live shows is where they can show the world what they had and also make the greatest earnings.
“Promoters are quietly working away to land opportunities. Details of the reunion are expected to leak out in the next few days. Everyone is expecting huge demand for tickets, but the boys are very humble and are not sure what to expect.”
According to other reports, the band was already approached about playing shows in Australia and Sweden.
Last month a friend close to Slash confirmed that he and Axl are now talking again and a comeback tour is close to being revealed.
According to the Mirror, the band’s classic lineup is “in talks” about returning to the stage, with promoters estimating that the trek could earn the boys $100 million.
This time around, the news came from Slash‘s friend John Murdy, a boss at Universal Studios theme park, who stated:
“I know that Slash and Axl talking again is a really good sign. I am going to let them figure that out. Rock stars are the coolest, nicest people. Slash is an icon and one of the 10 best guitar players of all time.”
Slash said about the whole matter: “There’s no animosity. Over time we all just got sick and tired of the black cloud. The biggest thing that happens when you have a break-up that is less than harmonious is you build up a bad energy because of the distance. The bad feelings get exaggerated.”
Discussing the possible tour, LA marketing expert Alex Villa commented: “Demand for tickets and interest in the USA alone would earn the group tens of millions of dollars. A world tour, reissued CDs and new material rockets that figure easily. Guns N’ Roses were a powerhouse in rock in the nineties and a reunion will be a huge deal.
“The band only need to do a year on the road and would never have to worry about money again in their lives.”
Longtime friend of bassist Duff McKagan‘s wife Susan Holmes-McKagan, the nipple pasties-wearing Brandi Glanville, made claims that the boys are indeed set to get back in town.
While the ladies were on a night out, they were approached by a paparazzi reporter dude, and Nipple Pasties shouted: “Guns N’ Roses is coming back, motherfuckers!”
It might sound silly, but if reunion was indeed confirmed, Duff would likely tell his wife – in confidence – and wife would likely tell her blabbermouth best friend – in confidence – and the blabbermouth friend would tell the world – in confidence… or not. It’s just the way of the world.
Guns N’ Roses keyboard player Dizzy Reed recently hinted a band comeback is close, too.
“With GNR, timelines don’t really apply,” Dizzy told Loudwire.
“And that’s fine, things will come out when they’re ready and we’ll go on tour when we’re ready…”
Even Slash, who refused to speak with Axl, has painted the singer in a more positive light.
“There’s no animosity. Over time we all just got sick and tired of the black cloud,” Slash said in an interview with CBS.
“The biggest thing that happens when you have a break up that is less than harmonious, you build up a bad energy because of the distance. The bad feelings get exaggerated.”
The big announcement is reportedly just “days away,” so stay tuned for updates.
