GUNS N’ ROSES TOUR CANCELLED

American rockers Guns N’ Roses have cancelled their European tour – including a date at the Manchester Evening News Arena on Tuesday 18 December.

Unlike other American artistes who have cancelled and postponed tours in recent weeks, the band has not blamed the international situation for its decision. A spokesperson for Guns N’ Roses says that failure to complete their new album has led to the cancellation of the tour.

The tour was due to co-incide with the release of ‘Chinese Democracy’, the group’s first album of all new material for 10 years. Unfortunately, the illness to guitarist Buckethead earlier this year – which lead to the postponement of the original Manchester date in June – has also slowed down the progress on the album.

The group’s spokesperson said, "I am very sorry to disappoint our fans. The good news is that everyone is ecstatic with the album. We will announce rescheduled tour sates to coincide with its release next year”.
