Guns N’ Roses Plot New UK Date Due To High Demand

Guns N’ Roses have revealed plans to perform another UK date due to high demand and sold out shows.

The band were already scheduled to perform at London’s O2 this summer but will now follow their sold-out 31 May show with a second performance the day after on 1 June 2012.

Axl Rose and his classic rock troupe are set to head over to the UK during May for eight dates taking into account the new addition, starting in Nottingham on the 19th before finishing up at London’s o2 Arena at the beginning of June.

Guns N’ Roses will be supported by Thin Lizzy, with Scott Gorham stating: “To tour with a band the calibre of Guns N’ Roses is an honour and a privilege. Being on the road with a great band who are also great friends is the perfect way to go. It¹s like one big family, so can’t wait to see you all out there.”

The dates are (or so we’re told):

MAY
19 NOTTINGHAM Arena
20 LIVERPOOL Echo Arena
23 NEWCASTLE Metro
25 GLASGOW SECC
26 BIRMINGHAM LG Arena
29 MANCHESTER Arena
31 LONDON The O2

JUNE

Guns N’ Roses will also be performing at this year’s EXIT festival, joining the likes of New Order, Richie Hawtin, Gossip, Wolfmother, and Buraka Som Sistema, who’ve all already been confirmed,

This year EXIT will take place from 12th - 15th July, in Novi Sad, Serbia. Tickets are on sale now.
