Shinedown could open for GN'R and dedicate the Sound of Madness to Axl.

that doesn't mean anything. they opened for a co-headlining tour oh Buckcherry and Avenged Sevenfold when neither band had an album in the charts.

It does mean something. It means their popular. They're not gonna get a major headlining spot yet maybe after their next album or two. I was just adding to what Faldor said earlier.

GNR fans wouldn't want to see M.I.A.

I didn't realize those acts were hard rock juggernauts that appealed to GNR fans.

Quickly name me one song performed by each act without using google.

I agree with Mr. Lofton for once...

M.I.A. would be a real good choice. I'd also like to see "local" acts.

As in bands that are big in their native country.

The precedent has been set, which is my point. GNR is capable of looking outside the box when it comes to choosing opening acts. If they can pick non rock acts that no one gives a flying fuck about, they can choose non rock acts that people actually like.

They were terrible choices.

So was Baz.

I know what they are, and yes they do sing. Obviously its not a real musical act, but they do sing in some of their sets.
