It doesn't take as long to schedule a show in the city where all your gear is.  Contrast that with shipping all your stuff across the country.

I know there probably won't be warmup shows, but I'm holding out hope damn it!

If you are rehearsing at 'an arena'...I would assume you could very quickly arrange for staffing/security/vending to be on hand (like a weeks notice), and rip out a 2+ hr set.  I know nothing...but I just wouldn't rule anything out.  I do tend to believe there is some symbolism in opening this tour in Taiwan...a Chinese Democracy.   Any 'warm up' shows could steal/reduce that headline/impact.

A warm up show at a club usually doesn't steal the thunder of an overseas concert legs opening night IMO

No not the 'thunder' of the concert itself...nothing would take that away from GnR fans IMO...but the press would jump on the warm-up shows, blow their headlines, talk their trash, and lose interest - that was my point.  With Taiwan as the opener it will be hard for even hardcore Axl-haters (Dick Small for example) to ignore the 'Chinese Democracy' tie in, huge show, and get positive/neutral press in ways they normally don't (like NYT). ok

I still think they might throw a "surprise" gig somewhere in L.A. or N.Y. in the next week or two. Perhaps not play "the show" that they are planning on for the tour, but, maybe just some classic tunes and a few new ones to get the band fired up!

Perhaps...perhaps not.

Yeah, I was thinking about that too. A smaller warm up date would be cool without the whole show but I get what you're saying.

I wouldn't say "the show" itself has been hyped alot, but I am looking forward to a big production given Ron's tweets.

Even a small surprise accoustic set somewhere would be pretty cool before they hit the road.

I think I read into your comment too much.  I was thinking you were implying that an announcement of some kind would be made in or around the first show.   peace

Why not new ones and a few classics? Would make more sense to me.

I had this idea today that maybe they could do something like Pink Floyd used to do in the 70s; play the album in it's entirety, take a break then do a second set of hits. That'd be sweet.

I say this because I wonder if a "show" of sorts is being planned around the album from track to track. That'd be killer!

Russ, you need to channel that thought to the band. That would surely kick hinder, with "CD" being a great opener and all. I'm just a bit excited about this tour, seeing that there's a whole new album of delicious tunes to draw upon vs. the previous leak tours. Grin
