GUNS N' ROSES - Current Line-Up "Not Fit" For UK's Reading And Leeds Festivals
March 20, 2012, 12 years ago
According to a report from Undercover.fm, Michael Benn - head honcho for the Reading and Leeds Festivals in the UK - "has ruled out offering a place on either festival bills to the band as it currently stands."
Benn recently spoke with NME and offered the following:
"I wouldn't have the current line-up, certainly not at the moment. It doesn't feel right. Of course, if it was the original line-up I would definitely consider it and if they could tell the time, it would be fantastic. With the original line-up it would be something very special. We'd have to give them all a watch each, but we'd certainly try to get them if they reformed."As previously reported, Guns N' Roses have been confirmed for the EXIT Festival 2012 which will take place at the Petrovaradin Fortress in Novi Sad, Serbia on July 12th-15th.
Other confirmed bands are: NEW ORDER, RICHIE HAWTIN, GOSSIP, WOLFMOTHER, LUCIANO, LAURENT GARNIER LBS, MISS KITTIN, AZARI & III, BURAKA SOM SISTEMA, ART DEPARTMENT, MACEO PLEX, REBOOT LIVE, BRODINKSI, KENNY LARKIN, ROBERT DIETZ, and MAAYAN NIDAM.
Adult weekend tickets cost £95, with a £25 fee for camping. For more info visit the festival’s website.
