I truly believe we'll have a full announcement and an outlined Gnr battle plan on how Axl plans to rule the world once again by the end of the week. :hihi:

*IF* this is true, then I'm pretty sure this is *NOT* how management wanted this going down.  Then again, I don't think the leak timing was particularly grand for them either.  Chaos is most likely to ensue.

Don't get your hopes high. As I said in the other threads: Even if it's confirmed, that doesnt mean ANYthing. They could easily cancel before the shows. Like 2001. Fuck, they can even cancel WHILE on tour. Like 2002.

Its true, and yeah I dont think management wanted these festivals to announce first. Im pretty sure Axl wanted to hold some sort of press conference and announce everything then...

Rock Im Park is the brother festival of Rock Am Ring. They can't have announce it for May 27, it's gotta be June 2-4.

Darknemus, this could only lead to good things. Something needed to light a fire under their ass. Just like when the U2 cd was stolen. It pushed up the release of the record. After all this time, I don't feel sorry for Axl or management. They made their stance as cold and insensitive to the fanbase. Now they got a mini French Revolution on their hands...except they hopefully won't lose their heads. It will be an option if a record isn't released before these shows. :hihi:

a Reminder
Rock In Rio Lisboa will be broadcasted here in Brazil by Tv Globo and his channels (like Multishow)
In Europe, there will be broadcasts in tv too (Portugal too, obvious  Grin)
And for the people around the world, it'll be broadcasted Online .

So, there will definately a Pro-shot video !

No, no, and no.

It was not a leap of faith conclusion.  It was based off information garnered from a source.  It wasn't just pulled out of thin air.

People just like to bitch and whine about Sp1at because a) They try and make rumors sound official by overemphasizing them and b) because they got a few actual scoops and comments from band members.

Really, sp1at isn't different from any other "my brother's best friend's mom told me that" rumor, and we chat about plenty of those.

Merck supposedly confirmed NovaRock to Madison at MyGNR, so additional festivals won't be surprising. What, they're gonna go to Europe, play one festival, and go home? You can count on a few shows if all this is legit.

Well, I heard back from Merck again.

I asked him how many other festivals the band has been booked to play and if a full-blown tour had been booked.

He would only say, "You will see more if we announce more."

So, it soundds like a lot of dates are being booked.

I'll add this to my first post.


from madison at mygnr.com



Not that I respect Madison because I don't but at least Merck didn't call mygnr.com rubbish even though it is BUT merck made it perfectly clear his feelings on and towards sp1at and what they report so I'll wait for an official announcement on RIO : ok:

Does anyone recall the order of events in 2002 when Guns starting touring?  I believe they did Asia first, then Europe... then VMAs and U.S.  It all started unfolding very quickly.  Might be very insightful to review the history.

This is what I've been hoping for!!! It was the only headlining slot left. In fact, this was firstly meant to be the "metal day". I guess they changed their minds... ;D
Anyway, I'm from from Portugal and they ALWAYS make the headling announcements in the news at 8pm. So let's wait a few hours.
I'm portuguese, so I can give you an update as soon as I hear something there.

According to a posting on Sp1at.com, the organizers of the Rock In Rio (Lisbon) festival have confirmed that GUNS N' ROSES will be headlining the event on May 27. Confirmation is set to appear on the Rock In Rio web site in the next 24 hours.

In other news, GUNS N' ROSES manager Merck Mecuriadis has reportedly confirmed to MyGNR.com that GN'R are indeed playing the Nova Rock festival in Austria on June 15-17. When asked what other dates GN'R are playing over the summer, Merck reportedly responded, "You will see more if we announce more."

Also on the GN'R-related front, www.GunsNRosesOnline.de is reporting that GUNS N' ROSES will play the Rock am Ring festival on June 3-6 in Nurburgring, Germany. Meanwhile, TheNewGuns.com is reporting that the band are confirmed for the Gods of Metal festival, set to take place June 3-4 in Italy.

Confirmed/rumored dates so far:

May 27 - Lisbon, POR @ Rock In Rio (Lisbon)
Jun. 3-4 - ITA @ Gods of Metal
Jun. 3-6 - Nurburgring, GER @ Rock an Ring
Jun. 15-17 - Pannonia Fields, AUT @ Nova Rock

In a rare interview conducted by Rolling Stone magazine on Jan. 13, GUNS N' ROSES frontman Axl Rose promised fans that the band will be back in 2006 with the long-awaited "Chinese Democracy" album.

"People will hear music this year," Rose said. "'Chinese Democracy' is a very complex record. I am trying to do something different. Some of the arrangements are kind of like QUEEN."

He also added he is working on 32 songs for the album and 26 are finished out of which 13 will feature on the final album. Some songs include "Better", "There was a Time" and "The Blues".


Awesome : ok: How reliable is this though?

this is the same way it happened 4 years ago,

for some reason guns chose the summer festivals in Europe rather than launching in the US.

metallica are confirmed for some of these dates aswell.

the one thing missing in 02 was new material that could be released. this time is looks like all systems go!

Rock on!!!!

Well to me, the big question now is:

Will gnr play mostly old material? or are we going to hear a lot of CD songs at these festivals??

I think Axl is going to play 7-8 new songs, along with some of the older material he never played on the last tour like Civil War, Yesterdays, Estranged, and god I am praying for Coma. :drool:

Guns n? Roses are coming to Rock in Rio-Lisboa!

Axl Roses? band will headline the 2nd day of the world?s biggest music event.

It?s confirmed: Guns n? Roses are coming to Rock in Rio-Lisboa to headline the 2nd day, May 27th. And with this confirmation, all World Stage headliners are now known.

The Axl Rose led band is responding to the thousands of fans who asked the band to come through the official site of the event.

This promises to be another memorable day for all who will come to the Bela Vista Park and more in specific for all those who have been waiting for the day that Guns would come.

Guns n? Roses was the most requested band by the official site users, amongst all bands, by all fans, whether Portuguese or international. It is expected that many international fans will travel to Lisbon to be there to hear the material on the new album ?Chinese Democracy? for the first time live.

In an interview with the American magazine Rolling Stone in January of this year, Axl Rose confirmed that this long awaited Guns n? Roses album was ?very complex? and that it would be a surprise for all the fans.

Axl followed that by saying that he was ?trying something different? and that certain arrangements would be very different from what the fans were expecting and probably closer to the sound of Queen. ?Better?, ?There Was A Time? and ?The Blues? are some of the titles of in total 26 new songs.

In 2001, the new version of Guns n? Roses performed at the third edition of Rock in Rio. More than 200.000 fans witnessed the return of Guns n? Roses, after 7 years away from the stage.

Axl Rose introduced the new band during a show of more than two hours, which was considered to be the best of the entire event. Today, 5 years later, the show of Guns n? Roses at the City of Rock promises to be a historic one, both for Rock in Rio and for Portugal.

The news explains that GNR will introduce Chinese Democracy to the world, and it was the most requested band to play at the festival.
It also afirms that Axl stated that CD will be out in the middle of March*. Do they make confusion with all these information on the net or does uncle Axl told them something we officially still don?t know??? Time will tell.

It says something like : in the same RS interview, in january, Axl stated the record would be out in march, and  that "it was  going to be more complex....bla bla bla" 

Seems like confusion to me

It also afirms that Axl stated that CD will be out in the middle of March*. Do they make confusion with all these information on the net or does uncle Axl told them something we officially still don?t know??? Time will tell.

*For some reason this part is not present in the english version of these same news.

 :o

Umm... what..?



Sorry, I edited to include the link to the official news.


... but the Rock In Rio site is about as official as it gets...

... if it said "Axl states mid-March", then...gulp...mid-March it is.

In fact, after a second read... there are a lot of misinformation there: They say Axl stated that to RS, and we know he didn't. In other link they say the current formation has Josh Freeze and Dave Navarro... in other words, the guy who made that text doesn?t know a thing about GNR, and got a decade-dated information... sad but true... whatever, what does really matter is that Guns will be there and CD will come out this year!!!!

"Who's headlining RIR V?"

"Some fat dude, with cornrows and jerseys..."

"They got a rapper to headline, what the fuck?!?!?"

"No dude, Axl Rose is back!"


That is a very likely conversation.

Guns n? Roses are coming to Rock in Rio-Lisboa!
 
 
Axl Roses? band will headline the 2nd day of the world?s biggest music event.
It?s confirmed: Guns n? Roses are coming to Rock in Rio-Lisboa to headline the 2nd day, May 27th. And with this confirmation, all World Stage headliners are now known.

The Axl Rose led band is responding to the thousands of fans who asked the band to come through the official site of the event.

This promises to be another memorable day for all who will come to the Bela Vista Park and more in specific for all those who have been waiting for the day that Guns would come.

Guns n? Roses was the most requested band by the official site users, amongst all bands, by all fans, whether Portuguese or international. It is expected that many international fans will travel to Lisbon to be there to hear the material on the new album ?Chinese Democracy? for the first time live.

In an interview with the American magazine Rolling Stone in January of this year, Axl Rose confirmed that this long awaited Guns n? Roses album was ?very complex? and that it would be a surprise for all the fans.

Axl followed that by saying that he was ?trying something different? and that certain arrangements would be very different from what the fans were expecting and probably closer to the sound of Queen. ?Better?, ?There Was A Time? and ?The Blues? are some of the titles of in total 26 new songs.

In 2001, the new version of Guns n? Roses performed at the third edition of Rock in Rio. More than 200.000 fans witnessed the return of Guns n? Roses, after 7 years away from the stage.

Axl Rose introduced the new band during a show of more than two hours, which was considered to be the best of the entire event. Today, 5 years later, the show of Guns n? Roses at the City of Rock promises to be a historic one, both for Rock in Rio and for Portugal.

Funny how they used Rock In Rio 2 in 1991 as a sort of comeback show, then in 2001 with Rock In Rio III, and now in 2006 with Rock In Rio V.
Well if he goes back into hiding after this, we will know what festival will bring him back again.

Also, is GNR the first band to play RIR 3 times?

but i think it's amazing to see them with gn'r... 2 great rock n roll bands!
i'd expect another band to complete the line up next month or so. in 2004 they added an international band per day to the bill in may or april... so they should do the same this year. : ok:

GNR should tour with the Darkness, I mean this is a ROCK band, I have nothing against A7x or Bullet for my Valentine, but they are too Metal for a GNR Gig. GNR is not Metal, it's Rock. The audience is pretty different. Bands like The Darkness, The Subways or Jet would be more appropriate to open for GNR.

Yeah, I know that Pitty is her name, but if you buy the cd it won't be labeled as "Pitty and Band", is Just like Sebastian Bach, the band only has his name because people knows his name! Is the same with Pitty...

PW, remember, Pitty is the name of an artist that has a band but it's not the name of the band itself. Anyway, Pitty and her band are pretty good and will kick ass!!!

Yeah, I know that Pitty is her name, but if you buy the cd it won't be labeled as "Pitty and Band", is Just like Sebastian Bach, the band only has his name because people knows his name! Is the same with Pitty...

PW, your arguments justify what I'm saying: the same thing happens to Rita Lee, Morrissey ?and even Lionel Richie ( :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:). Legaly and comercialy, they are the artists, it's their names, and they have a band to do live shows and studio recordings with them.
If Pitty fires the band, her next album will still be a "Pitty" album... in this case, legally and comercialy doesn't matter who the band members are.
BTW, we are totally off topic, if you want to debate more things about it let's do it via PM, ok!?
Abra??o!!

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

"Pitty" pode at? ser o que ela e os outros integrantes consideram uma banda, mas para a gravadora, para o mundo jur?dico e pro p?blico em geral Pitty ? ela e s?.

Yes, I'm not denying that the band is Pitty plus a bunch of hired musicians, it is, just like Guns N' Roses!!!

But the thing is: even though the band is based in one person, all the things regarding the band itself(like writings) are done based on the band's opinion, not just in one person's opinion!

Yes, Pitty owns the band and she can do whatever she wants to do, but if the whole band has their opinion taken seriously and, most important, if those opinion's are actually used on their records, shows or whatever, it's not just about one person anymore, it's a BAND! But a band with the name of the owner, that's all!

It's not like Roberto Carlos or Britney Spears, who has their bands but they are, in fact, hired musicians with no opinion in the music making!

Unfortunately, The Darkness second album didn't reach the expectations. I don't mean sales-wise, it's not as good.

I saw them live in Dec. '04. Not bad, there are ok. It was a fun show. I remember reading a thread here a year and a half ago about the similarities between GNR and The Darkness (and the possibility of a join tour). Funny how some things do come true.

I think that their albums grow on you.

And you have to listen to their music really loud cause it's basically music for partying....

Anyway, I saw Guns in 2002, Darkness in 2004 and I'll see Guns and Darkness in 2006.

What's next?

Guns (re-united), Darkness and Led Zeppelin (re-united with Bonham's son) in 2008?  ;D

Rock In Rio is a trademark like Coca Cola. Medina said that bringing foreign bands to Brazil is much more expensive than bringing them to Europe.

I can't translate, but here's the gist:

TNT (it's a Turner network) is going to be broadcasting RIR in Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina (not the US, apparently).

They don't mention GnR...and usually their broadcast of concerts consists of an edited down version.  Not always, but usually.

It'll be a free broadcast.

Unknown, as of yet.

The partnership that has the broadcast rights consists of XM, aol, and some other players.  XM and AOL certainly have the capacity to do a broadband webcast of the event (for a fee, probably) or to put it up live on XM, exlcusively, with highlights to follow on aolmusic.  But none of that has been announced yet....and considering how little time is left until the show...I'd think they'd want to announce their plans soon.

Heh, and that explains, even more, just how rusty my SPANISH is.  I couldn't tell the difference....but using my rudimentary spanish skills seemed to be able to get the gist.  It does explain why so much of it looked unfamiliar to me, though.  I think I did pretty good, considering. :)  High School Spanish was 15+ years ago, after all...and I never took Portuguese.

TNT will NOT broadcast the RIR live here in Brasil.

http://tntla.turner.com/br/specials/tnt_concert/rockinrio/index.jsp

They will broadcast only in August and we don't even know if its gonna be the full show or just some edited shit. Also, they said it's exclusive here, so one could think the gig will not be broadcasted live at all here.

I don't know if TNT will broadcast RIR live to Argentina or Mexico, because Brasil has a different contract. It's very possible, tho.

Rede Globo will problably show the GNR show, last RIR they showed live just the GNR show... this time wont be different IMO
Rede Globo will NOT broadcast anything live too. Last time GN'R performed, RIR was actually in Rio. The RIR4 was already in Portugal and they just showed some shitty clips. Remember, Globo can't put Guns N' Roses on tv at 8pm here because they had the soaps, news and shit like that.

Title: International TV coverage of Rock in Rio-Lisboa.
Post by: Prucc on May 01, 2006, 09:35:22 PM

International TV coverage of Rock in Rio-Lisboa

The success of the 2004 broadcast has resulted in interest from many new international TV channels. Without any doubt, there will be tremendous excitement in Lisbon's City of Rock in 2006 as the world's biggest international music stars are scheduled to perform at Rock in Rio Lisboa, the world's largest and most prestigious music event. The concert will again be televised around the globe and those who are not able to make the trip to the City of Rock on May 26th, 27th or June 2nd, 3rd and 4th, will be able to follow the event on TV, albeit in most countries at a later date.

The 2004 event was not only broadcast around the planet, TV hosts and their crews from more than 10 countries came to Lisbon to shoot their own additional material and interviews. These included: RTL Holland (which broadcast more than 4 hours to their Dutch viewers), TV4 Sweden, DRTV Denmark and DBB Indonesia, to name but a few. And the most popular music program on TVE Spain, "Musica Uno" included special segments about Rock in Rio?Lisboa in several of its Saturday broadcasts; before, during and after the event.

The success of the 2004 broadcast has resulted in interest from many new international TV channels and quite a few have already scheduled Rock in Rio-Lisboa in their 2006 line-up. But only Portugal will see the entire event live. In most of the rest of the world one-hour Specials of each day will be broadcast, while some countries will air a one- or two-hour overall highlight show.

A broadcast schedule for each of the main markets around the world will be posted on this site as it becomes available in the months leading up to the event.

For all information about the international TV broadcast rights, please contact Karen Riddell at rockinrio@comcast.net.

Most likely AOLMusic will have the show up either live, or shortly after.

They recently did a concert through Network Live with Jack Johnson and frieds live from the Kakua Music Festival.? The press reports seemed to indicate this was a "test run" leading up to Network Live's plans for RIR.? So I'd expect something similar for RIR.

There's been speculation that AOLMusic MIGHT have RIR as more premium content (ie: charging a fee for access) but they haven't announced anything yet.

I'd expect, if they're going to do that, we would see an announcement over the next week or two.

Anyway, this is where you'll find info, I'd think, if/when anything is announced:
