Hmmm...I don't know.

He denied Rock Im Ring, but didn't comment on the others.

It's sort of a quasi-confirmation, but better than nothing.

Guys, buckle in, because the rumors are going to start flying fast / furious, I think.  (And no, I dont think this is a rumor - but the signal to noise ratio is about to ramp up)

The next 24-48 hours is going to be a fucking roller coaster ride.  But hey, those are always fun :)

I agree with you Dark... the over seas audience is more infatuated with Gnr than the U.S, what a better way to build back up credibility with promoters than making sure to show up on time at all these festivals over seas.


Title: Re: GN'R playing Gods Of Metal festival in Italy
Post by: DizzyReed63 on February 20, 2006, 03:17:26 PM
Dark is absolutely right.
No U.S. promoter in his/her right mind would book GnR again, until they prove themselves all over again.

I sure as hell wouldn't invest in them without a huge contract.

Anyhow what I reckon is strange is that US radio stations are playing the songs but the tour seems to be kicking off in ?Europe. I'm still mixed in my thoughts on the 'on purpose leaking thing'

Give it time. ?Europe first (successfully) which will help the US promoters feel a bit more comfortable with a US solo tour.

Exactly. GnR are legacy in England and I suspect the rest of Europe.

Rock is still very popular in Europe. . . it's nearly dead in America though through Rap/RnB/Pop

Notice, as well, they're only (at this point) booked for festivals. ?Again, promoters are "safer" because they have lots of other acts on the bill and don't have to solely depend on GnR.

Which is not to say they won't do some solo dates out there....they might.

OK OK OK

I still haven't seen any evidence anywhere that GNR is confirmed for anything. ?the flyers are fan-made and the links require registration on some lame ass forum that i don't want to sign up for.

Could someone please paste in the confirmation, or else change the title of this thread because it is misleading.

Yep. They did the same thing in '02. No doubt that people will be watching Axl & Co. very closely. It's a good idea to go do a few shows in Europe, then a few more in the middle of no where USA, then hit the big markets. I believe this was the plan in '02 but, ah well you know....

Axl needs to do these festival shows to...

1)Establish credibility with tour promoters

2)Present the new gnr to a new generation of possible fans.

3)Present the new gnr to the past generation of fans who are disgruntled that Slash+Co are gone, but will still stick around to see the new gnr because they bought festival tickets to see other acts.

Guys, buckle in, because the rumors are going to start flying fast / furious, I think.? (And no, I dont think this is a rumor - but the signal to noise ratio is about to ramp up)

The next 24-48 hours is going to be a fucking roller coaster ride.? But hey, those are always fun :)

its in Italian.  Newsletter from the show, itself.  I've also copy / pasted BigBoss from sp1at's comments as a partial translation.  (Note, this Newsletter did go out, as I got my copy in my inbox about 20 mins ago or so.)

he Gods of Metal organisers have just officially announced that Guns N'Roses will close the festival on the 4th June 2006.

Rather interestingly, they have also added that a GN'R Greatest Hits album will be out in March, and Chinese Democracy will be out in May. In Italian, here is the newsletter;

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GUNS N' ROSES al GODS OF METAL 2006!!!!!!!!

... e poi KORN, DEFTONES, MOTORHEAD !!!

L'attesa ? stata lunga, ma crediamo che ne sia valsa la pena perch? per l'edizione del decennale Gods Of Metal raddoppia. La prima novit? infatti riguarda la durata del festival che sar? di quattro giorni, e non pi? due. Si svolger? il prossimo 1, 2, 3, 4 Giugno. Ricordiamo che il 2 Giugno ? la Festa della Repubblica, per cui si tratta di un ponte veramente lungo che parte giovedi 1 giugno.

La seconda novit? sar? la location: si torna a Milano. La cornice sar? quella dell'Idroscalo.

La notizia pi? attesa, quella che da ormai tredici anni tutti aspettiamo, riguarda il ritorno in grande stile dei GUNS N' ROSES che chiuderanno il festival domenica 4 Giugno. Axl Rose si ? finalmente deciso: il nuovo attesissimo "Chinese Democracy" sar? nei negozi a maggio, e la band intraprender? un lungo tour mondiale che avr? la sua unica tappa italiana al Gods Of Metal 2006. L'album sar? preceduto da un "greatest hits" in uscita a Marzo. GUNS N' ROSES saranno headliners in tutti i maggiori festival europei, compreso il Download in Inghilterra, Nova Rock in Austria, il Rock in Rio di Lisbona ed il fatto che abbiano deciso di esibirsi al Gods per il loro ritorno sulle scene ci rende particolarmente orgogliosi.

Arrivano inoltre le conferme ufficiali anche per KORN, DEFTONES e MOTORHEAD.

The news more wait, that one that gives to thirteen years all by now we wait for, regards the return in great style of the GUNS N' ROSES that will close festival Sunday 4 June. Axl Roses finally has been decided: new the most waited for "Chinese Democracy" will be in the storees to May, and the band it will undertake along tour world-wide that will have its only Italian stage to the Gods Of Metal 2006. The album will be preceded from "greatest hits" in escape to March. GUNS N' ROSES will be headliners in all greater festival the Europeans, comprised the Download in England, Nova Rock in Austria, the Rock in River of Lisbona and the fact that has decided to exhibit to the Gods for their return on the scenes renders us particularly proud.

GH in March, CD in May. ?That sounds like a good 1-2 punch. : ok:

Here is my two cents, for what it is worth.

New Single in March/April, with or without GH's 2 (new single on GH's would be nice)!
2nd single for Da Vinci in May
CD in May/June/July timeframe

Well, I have been hearing 'rumblings' from the Geffen side of things since like September that "something" was happening March 28th.  I've always assumed it to be CD, but perhaps it is GH II?  Who knows, this is just another piece in the puzzle, as far as I see it.

It would make more sense to have GH2 come out in March and CD in May.  You don't need an assload of promotion for a greatest hits set...whereas something as anticipated as CD needs a bit of buildup before you unleash it (singles, videos, promotional appearances).  I was a bit miffed at the idea of it coming out so soon.  Sure, it'd rule to have the album in my hands within the month, but in all honesty, it'd make me very angry to see it being pushed out with no promotion and being handed a fate similar to Limp Bizkit's last album (no promotion, nothing...sold 50,000 copies or so...sad sad sad).  I can wait for May...if things happen like they are poised to and we get videos, singles, etc...a month or so will not bother me.

Why out out a GH when the Band is new and going into a new direction? Makes not sence.. Just trying to get as much money as possible.. Fucking stupid. Who does that? Back to back month with a GH and New CD.. Especially when CD has been waiting for so many years.

Does anyone know if tickest went on sale yet for GNR's tour date at the Gods of Metal festival in Milan, Italy. I assumed that since the website for the concert wasn't yet up and running that the tickets hadn't gone on sale yet, but now i'm starting to panic and think I may have missed the boat. If they are on sale, where the hell do you buy them?

Do you guys think I should just wait until they come to the US to see them. I'm just a little worried that by the time they would get here the band will have had another meltdown and I don't want to risk not seeing them.

If anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it.


Thanks,
