Gnr Album/tour Put On Hold Again

Guns N' Roses manager Doug Goldstein of Sanctuary
Music Management has announced the cancellation of the
band's upcoming 'Chinese Democracy' UK and European
tour dates. The dates, which have sold hundreds of
thousands of tickets in advance, were to follow Guns
N'Roses extremely successful return to live work
before an audience of 250,000 people at the Rock in
Rio festival earlier this year.

Doug Goldstein commented, "To ensure Guns N' Roses
fans get the album they deserve, Axl Rose has spent
every waking minute of every day during the past 5
years writing, recording and producing Guns N' Roses
first new album of all new material since 1991.
Following the euphoria of Rock in Rio, I jumped the
gun and arranged a European tour as our plan was to
have the new album out this year. Unfortunately,
Buckethead's illness not only stopped the tour but it
also slowed down progress on "Chinese Democracy." As
a result, touring right now is logistically
impossible. I am very sorry to disappoint our fans
but I can assure them that this is not what Axl wanted
nor is it 'Another page from the Howard Hughes of
Rock' as some of the media will no doubt portray it.
I made a plan and unfortunately it did not work out.

"The good news is that everyone is ecstatic with the
album and we will be meeting with our label to
schedule it's release following which we will announce
the rescheduled tour dates to coincide. Guns N' Roses
look forward to seeing everybody next year and once
again please accept my apologies for the way this has
played out."

Looks like we'll just have to wait and see.

As far as I'm concerned, they have a lot of nerve even calling themselves GnR anymore. The only remaining member from the glory days is Axl Rose. Axl alone does not make GnR. Now if it were Axl & Slash, then it would be a different story.

Awww, come on SLASH, we need you. Axl can't do it alone. Especially when he's got band members with names like Brain and Buckethead.
Bring back the old GnR!
