GUNS N' ROSES, THE BLACK CROWES RUMORED FOR THE ROLLING STONES SUPPORT SLOT IN IRELAND

According to GlobalRhythm.net, GUNS N' ROSES and THE BLACK CROWES are rumored to be among the support bands being considered for THE ROLLING STONES' gig in front of a 65,000-strong crowd at Slane Castle in Dublin, Ireland on August 18. The only support act currently confirmed to appear is TINARIWEN.

As previously reported, a studio mix of another new GUNS N' ROSES song, 'There Was a Time', was leaked on May 6, making it the fourth new GN'R track in two days to be released via the Internet ('The Blues', 'Chinese Democracy' and 'I.R.S.' were leaked two days earlier). 'There Was a Time' (also known as 'T.W.A.T.') was played live only twice — at the first New York City warm-up show on May 12, 2006 and Madrid, Spain on May 25, 2006 — and was mentioned as one of GN'R singer Axl Rose's favorites in an interview he gave to Rolling Stone magazine in January 2006. All tracks are rumored to be set for inclusion on GUNS N' ROSES' upcoming album 'Chinese Democracy'.

Longtime GUNS N' ROSES associate Del James revealed in a February 2007 online posting that 'Chinese Democracy' was in the 'mixing' stage.

GUNS N' ROSES has announced that the band's 2007 world tour will begin on June 2 in Monterrey, Mexico. Launch dates in South Africa and Japan were bumped due to a wrist injury sustained by bassist Tommy Stinson.
