Tickets for Guns N' Roses Tour in Singapore Go on Sale Friday

It's almost as if the PR campaign for Guns N Roses' world tour knew what all Malaysian rock fans would be thinking before we asked it. "Are Guns N Roses' coming to Malaysia instead this time?" "Not in this lifetime... we'll be in Singapore." We wonder if Malaysia was ever even a consideration during their meetings. Did we even cross their minds? Well... not in this lifetime.

Yes, once again we've been jilted on the global tour stage by yet another band. So close, yet so far. This time, Guns N' Roses is going to Changi Exhibition Centre, Singapore on Saturday, 25 February, 2017. And it's a really big deal because founder Axl Rose and members, Slash and Duff McKagan, are reuniting for the tour!
