GUNS N’ ROSES‘ previously announced summer 2020 North American stadium tour is being postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic which is sweeping the globe.
The nearly two-month-long trek was scheduled to launch on July 4 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and run through August 26 on Missoula, Montana.
Earlier today (Wednesday, May 20), the band released the following statement via social media: “GN’R Fam, some news: the North American tour is being rescheduled out of an abundance of caution. We will share the updated schedule as soon as the dates are finalized & all tickets will be honored accordingly.
“If you are a ticket holder and would prefer a refund, please visit livenation.com/refund for your options.
“Thank you for your understanding during this time as we look forward to coming back together very soon. #GnFnR”
GUNS N’ ROSES‘ “Not In This Lifetime” tour, which began four years ago, recently became the No. 3 highest-grossing tour in the history of Billboard Boxscore.
Launched in April 2016, “Not in This Lifetime” featured classic-lineup members Slash, Duff McKagan and singer Axl Rose backed by guitarist Richard Fortus, drummer Frank Ferrer, keyboardist Dizzy Reed and second keyboardist Melissa Reese.
GUNS kicked off its long-rumored and long-awaited reunion tour with a club show in Hollywood and appearances in Las Vegas and at California’s Coachella festival.
The band is now reportedly working on a new studio album â the first under the GUNS banner since 2008’s “Chinese Democracy” and the first to feature Rose, Slash and McKagan since 1993.
