Guns tour in the works???

[whiny]

it doesn't make too much of a difference i think: touring shortly before or after cd is released. either way is fine. the important thing is, that this time they would have an album to support that is about to come out (or has just come out). great marketing for cd, a cool video for the first single and hitting the road is the package that i'm hoping for. as long as all of this takes place in 2008, it's fine with me.

I just don't see the problem.

Imagine this:

The record is done, ready for release, the band plays a few shows, the album comes out, the band promotes it, starts a new tour.....

It seems like some people want this:

The record is done, ready for release, the band plays a few shows, the album comes out, the band promotes it, starts a new tour.....

But nowhere does it say that the release will happen faster when you remove that part of the equation.

I'm sure that the band will play some different songs down the road not only from future albums but from past material too. For example I think it was Dizzy who was talking about maybe playing Civil War.

But I'd personally rather have a great show than the band sloppily throwing together songs just to please the whiny babies. As much as I loved the Hammerstein shows, the band has been sharpening their skills on the "basic setlist" for sometime. Listen to the Hammerstein show then listen to the Budokan show. Axl's voice is razor sharp, Robin's chops are full of emotion, and Frank is banging the skins like a 5th grader discovering porn. Not to mention the other member's performances.

Some of the old lineup performances were awesome and raw, but some of them were pretty crappy. So... quit demanding things out of the band. Notice how complaining dies down and we get an awesome Don't Cry performance? That was cool because people let the band do their thing and were genuinely surprised by it. When you try to control something out of your control you are inevitably angry and jaded all the time.

So don't cry you whiny little monkeys.

Good news!.

I would like that Axl never forget his experience in Buenos Aires. I hope to see his band again.

You think we got a treat because there wasn't as much whining on message boards ?!?!  What a silly monkey YOU are ! ! !

i don't see a problem either. playing some shows in e.g. brasil or other places where gnr haven't played for quite a while is totally ok. if they did manage to arrange that now, they would play there, like in the summer or late spring; then the release is not too far away (if the plan is to release it in 2008). then kick off a new tour with more material from cd. sounds nice to me.

[mrbucketfoot]

Nope, I think we got it because the band wanted to play it. The two were/are unrelated. It's pointing out that once people let their hair down, people were enjoying things. They didn't expect it.

If people are constantly complaining, when the band does play something they want they'll say "finally.....about time.....now they need to play this".

[Jaakko]

Also remember that they played 4 months before Illusions were on shelves. It's not the end of the world if they announce a tour (or few shows) without a release date for Chinese Democracy. They don't even need to be touring in US when the record comes out... It's very likely, yes, but not an absolute necessarity.

[DemocracyRose]

God damn this happen to almost every exciting threads. Discussing pointless thing again and again. The last 6 pages have been about the same shit. 

[alex_27]

If a tour starts without a release date confirmed, they are not going to play more new songs, they will play the same new songs we know (it is an opinion). Perhaps they will play some old song like it was nice boys.

At this time, i dont think GNR would start a tour whithout a release date confirmed. Except they play in south america.

[jarmo]

God damn this happen to almost every exciting threads.

Just remember that for every one of these unhappy supporters, there are people who are excited about the news.

Replace the subject to day "GNR to play in Mexico, Australia, New Zealand and Japan" and you'd get the same responses.

As you said, same shit, different thread.

Im all for that . I hope that it ends up like that. So we actually agree on something!

Like I have said time and time again..Im for any tour that supports the release of CD

That's awesome.



I bet all tours so far since 2001 have, more or less, done so. Not in the way you think I guess.....

If nothing else, it gives the band a chance to get to play together in front of people. That must only be a good thing for any band right?

Regardless of what anyone says this is clearly great news.

Well, not really....if the album wasnt done from 2000-2006(like you claim) then those tours couldnt have been in support of the album release correct?

Details, details. This will all be forgotten when the album comes out.

[AxlsMainMan]

They could have been in support of the album's forthcoming release.
