    You must really be a GnR fan.

    Slash looks in good health for his age but Axel, even from afar, looks like someones fat uncle.

    It's definitely not One Direction, if that's what you mean.

    Slash and Duff look great for their age.

    Agreed on Axl. He looks and sounds even worse than the Chinese Democracy years. Yikes.

    You're right it sounded pretty much all bad.

    Yeah.. Axl, man... Back in the day though had great range, now though, maybe he should lip sync the tour. Fortunately Slash didn't need to worry about his voice (like Axl) and can still shred.

    Regardless I'll probably go :) as long as it lasts that long and Rose doesn't pull his usual shenanigans

    lolwut. GnR was good, but you are grossly overrated them. Its an opinion of course, but they don't hold a candle to Queen.

    I'm super psyched for this. Guns and Roses aren't appreciated enough by the younger generation. Stairway to Heaven is epic!

    I'm curious to who they will have touring with them? NRG is a big place and I don't think GnR will fill it up with out help.

    I wish Matt Sorum was the drummer again. He's phenomenal.

    Interesting article on why he wasn't below. Also why Steven Adler wasn't.

    http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/ma...-perform-with-guns-n-roses-at-the-troubadour/

    I think it would be cool to take them both on the road and let them play their own songs, but not sure if Adler is really sober yet. Adler's not a great drummer, but he's a founding member so that should count for something.

    Adler played on a couple of tunes with GnR the other night. So besides Izzy, this is 4/5 of the classic lineup, which is something I never thought I'd see again.

    So cool to see Adler happy, healthy and really enjoying himself on stage. He can't wipe the smile from his face. That's the power of music, man. It's no joke.

    The Cult, Lenny Kravitz, and Alice in Chains are opening up other cities on the tour but we get ****ing Skillerex. I understand AIC and The Cult are playing Houston Open Air so they probably wouldn't want to play here twice within 6 weeks. I wish Lenny would have done the show here it would have set up a possible Slash coming out to guest on Always on The Run.

    How is Rose already running around like that? That was a bad leg break he had.
