Re: 2019 tour date announced
Looks like a tour cycle might begin in April next year
Oh jeez another tour?! 
I will say, the article rumors a possible UYI set in its entirety. While AFD would be more in demand, UYI would be quite an achievement playing some of those classics & sagas.

I find it hard to believe they would do the Illusions in a single set. Hopefully it’s an album cycle.
If they actually do play the Illusions, I hope Izzy is in the fold for Dust N’ Bones and 14 years.
Re: 2019 tour date announced
Just going on the various interviews alone, I would be hoping for a new album and tour. Axl and Caram are obviously busy with something in the studio, and an album wouldn't take that long to finish up and release.
The other option would be a novelty tour allowing them time to finish a new album, but if they do this, Slash'll probably go off and start another Conspirators record, as per one of his interviews, and this would cause further delays
I think working on another album whilst continuing the current tour would be incredibly nonsensical. The NITL tour has gone on a long time, and I can understand this from a financial perspective as it gives everyone that nest egg, and the record company money from merch. But no tour lasts longer than three/four years. Roger Waters and Garth Brooks did four year tours, U2 and the Rolling Stones have done three years tours, but that is the maximum shelf life of any tour.

Re: 2019 tour date announced
I still wonder if they might not just release a Best Of with one or two new songs drawn from the Chinese Democracy material (maybe some new band remixes of the Chinese Democracy stuff they play on tour, too? GIVE ME THIS I LOVE). Crucially, stuff like Atlas Shrugged already has lyrics written and recorded. And didn't MSL claim that Slash and Duff had already recorded overdubs for that one?
That'd be a useful stop-gap while they crack on with another touring cycle and album, and it'd shut up the naysayers who claim that they're not doing anything new.

I asked about it, and all I was told is that the article reflects what the promoter was told. So I am guessing, a new album is the plan, but they have a Plan B in place if it is not ready.
It fits in with what have been said before
