Well, this would be pretty epic. A “well informed heavy hitter” in the music industry has revealed that the original lineup of Guns N’ Roses will come together once again to headline the Soundwave Festival in Australia next year.
James Young, owner of Melbourne’s iconic rock and roll Cherry Bar, told Triple M Radio,
“I heard the most amazing rumor this week, from a very well informed heavy hitter in the Australian music industry, giving me the name of the headline act for Soundwave next year. Now we know that a mystery band has come in and saved the festival, and now owns it, so they they are going to have a big say. So what mega band could it be? Well I have heard ‘fantasized’ on Wednesday night that it will be: Steven Adler, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagen, Slash and Axl Rose, the reformation of the original 1987 Appetite for Destruction Guns N’ Roses lineup, can you believe it? It’s incredible, I’ve had sleepless nights fantasizing about it.”
Young reportedly heard the news just one day before Slash revealed to the public that he and Axl Rose have reconciled.
