GUNS N’ ROSES PLAYS CLUB DATES INCLUDING THREE NEW YORK SHOWS

After recently wrapping up an arena tour, Guns N’ Roses has announced a handful of theater dates throughout February, starting next week when the band will play three dates in New York during fashion week.

With each show held at a different venue, the first show will be held February 10 at the Roseland Ballroom. After that, the band will play Terminal 5 on February 12 and Webster Hall on February 15. For the show on the 15^th, the marquee for Webster Hall will be changed to the Ritz, which is what the venue was called when Guns N’ Roses last played there 24 years ago.

That performance was recorded as an MTV concert called “Live at the Ritz,” which is now a heavily sought after bootleg. The band has never played the Roseland Ballroom or Terminal 5 before.

Following the New York shows, the group will head to the Midwest for one show at the House of Blues in Chicago on February 19. Then they will head back to the east coast for a show in Silver Spring, Md. at the Fillmore and then another House of Blues show, this time in Atlantic City, N.J on February 24.

In other Guns N’ Roses news, it was announced in December that the band will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year, along with the Beastie Boys, Red Hot Chili Peppers and the Faces/Small Faces. The induction ceremony will be held April 14 in Cleveland, Ohio.

Singer Axl Rose is the only remaining original member of Guns N’ Roses, which released the multi-platinum debut Appetite for Destruction in 1987. No word has been released as to which lineup will appear at the Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

The band’s most recent record, Chinese Democracy, was released in 2008, 17 years after the most recent album to that point, Use Your Illusion II.
