'Appetite For Destruction’ Band Will Hit 2016, Reunion Of Guns N’ Roses After Three Decades

Rock fans rejoice! News reports have confirmed that Axl Rose, Slash and Duff McKagan are going to hit the stage in 2016 for the Gun 'N Roses' reunion, starting with some six shows in April.

The 1987 debut album of Guns 'N Roses, titled "Appetite for Destruction," launched the band to superstardom. The LP sold a record 30 million copies to become one of the bestselling albums of all time.

However, real or imagined grudges caused the band members to split, particularly between its two leaders, Axl Rose and Slash.

According to TeamRock.Com, Slash has been working in the studio for new material for the Guns N' Roses reunion. However, reports claimed that Axl Rose is not part of the production for now, but the recording is "definitely" taking place.

Former band manager Alan Niven also revealed that Duff McKagan and Izzy Stradlin have been working together on new tracks.

Then news are swirling about DJ Ashba, who joined the band in 2009 and left in 2015, will also be part of the Guns 'N Roses reunion. But if it were up to the guitarist, he wanted Steven Adler, Izzy Stradlin, Matt Sorum and Gilby Clarke to also be part of the tour, reported NME.

"I love it for the fans. However, I hope they bring in Steven Adler, Izzy Stradlin and even Matt Sorum and Gilby Clarke," Ashib replied to a fan's question on Sixx:A.M.'s facebook page earlier this week.

The Guns 'N Roses reunion will start at T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas on April 8, 2016. Later they will perform in Coachella and Mexico City.

Meanwhile, it's speculated that Guns 'N Roses will play tracks from 2008's "Chinese Democracy" along with late-80s and early-90s material for the reunion tour.
