'Chinese Democracy' on tour?
Update: Rolling Stone reports that Richard Fortus now denies that he said GNR might tour.
2009 in Pittsburgh gets off to great start, hard-rock wise, with AC/DC on Jan. 7.
Could Guns 'N Roses be a little further down the road?
Rolling Stone quotes guitarist Richard Fortus that a GNR tour should start in late March and is expected to last "at least two years."
This tour, of course, would be a bit dicier than AC/DC considering that "Chinese Democracy" was a bust and Guns 'N Roses is really like Axl Rose and whoever else shows up.
Plus, there's that whole deal with Axl being on hip-hop time, hitting the stage whenever he feels like it.
Memo to Axl: The only way we're hanging around Mellon Arena till 1 a.m. is if the Penguins go into triple overtime in the playoffs.
