Axl Rose is bringing his on-off Guns n' Roses circus to the UK for one show this year
Following the leak of four tracks from their new album Chinese Democracy (yes! It exists!), Guns n' Roses have been added to the rockin' bill for this year's Download festival.
Joining Metallica, KoRn, Deftones and The Prodigy across the June weekend, this will be the only UK show in 2006 for Axl n' co. Although, we can't remember who the hell is actually in the band or not anymore.
Download takes place on the 9th-11th June and tickets are on sale now from the usual booking fee-hugging outlets.
theres actually a lot of the bands on this bill
that i've seen and would like to see again
which is pretty unusual
might go and geek out on a nostalgia trip back to when i was 16
That...
...is the problem with Download.
Every year its the same old same old.
There are too many metal fans who are content to live in the past and are afraid to explore new music.
It really is quite depressing.
If...
If a man has fun, surely you can just let them be?
Rumours
persist that Actual Guns N Roses Members (ie, Velvet Revolver) might be joining Axl onstage. But the rumours are probably bollocks.
that's what i heard as well
so it's probably true.
...
...or not
Id be surprised if Axl actually shows up!
