The big announcement of Guns N’ Roses reuniting has many rock fans energized and ready to pounce on tickets. They have just announced that they are headlining ‘Coachella’, this April for two weekends, and a subsequent big summer stadium tour will also be announced soon. Tickets are likely to be $150-$250, by the way!
Well, one thing is for sure, this reunion is what I call a ‘half-ass’ reunion. The big three members are in, Axl Rose, Slash, and Duff McKagen. However the legendary ‘Appetite’ lineup is clearly being ignored. NO Izzy Stradlin, NO Steven Adler, or even Matt Sorum from the later ‘Use Your Illusion’ lineup. I guess fans don’t care much, as the ‘big three’ are all in. However, is this really a reunion? Does this bother you? Does this lineup justify the ticket prices they are going to ask? Well, we will see! I guess it’s just cool that Axl and Slash have buried the hatchet. ‘Welcome To The Jungle”, Indeed!
