Re: GUNS N' ROSES At The Troubadour: Video Report On Today's Announcement
KCAL-TV, the CBS-owned television station in Los Angeles, has uploaded a video report on today's announcement that GUNS N' ROSES will play its first live gig of 2016 tonight (Friday, April 1) on the hallowed ground where the band started, the Troubadour, in West Hollywood, California. The The clip, which includes interviews footage with fans who were lined up this morning at Gibson Brands on Sunset (formerly Tower Records), to purchase tickets for the concert, can be seen below. The show will mark the first time singer Axl Rose and guitarist Slash have performed together since 1993.
GUNS N' ROSES has still not officially announced the lineup of musicians who will take the stage beyond Rose, Slash and bassist Duff McKagan, although it is almost certain that keyboardist Dizzy Reed, guitarist Richard Fortus and drummer Frank Ferrer are on board as well.
Original members Izzy Stradlin and Steven Adler didn't originally appear to be involved in the gigs, but Adler's solo band abruptly canceled a show at the Whiskey A Go Go in Los Angeles on April 1, with the venue tweeting, "Stay tuned for a big announcement! #GunsNRoses." There is now speculation about a guest appearance by Adler with GUNS.
The last show Axl and Slash played together was on July 17, 1993 at River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires. The latest incarnation of GUNS N' ROSES, which only included Axl from the original lineup, played a residency in Las Vegas in 2014 but has remained silent since.
GUNS N' ROSES has six more concerts scheduled in April: two at the Coachella Music And Arts Festival, two in Las Vegas and two in Mexico City.

This reporter is HORRIBLE.
God you know that cringe-worthy moment when faux journalists pretend they know what the fuck they are talking about when they haven't a clue because all of their copy was prepared beforehand.

Well Smoking Guns was wrong. Looks like there are some diehards in that line.

Agreed. The first guy in line had a 'Rose Tattoo' t-shirt. Only a diehard would wear that AND know what it means to the band. I'm sure that porn star bitch later in the segment was clueless, as was the crappy reporter.
But like I told a friend of mine. What if we were there today? If I got a ticket for $10 bucks, i'd kill to protect it like it was "my preciousssss" But my friend told me immediately, he loved GN'R, but he could take that $10 ticket and flip it for $2,000
I wouldn't sell it for a million. I'm not fucking kidding. If I had a ticket right now... no amount of money, pussy would get me to get rid of it. Now power... ehh... too much of 'ol JR in me not to listen to that offer.

Those 10 dollar tickets are priceless in the correct hands. Some people are just greedy cunts.
