GUNS N' ROSES - 2,000 Tickets Added For Upcoming Iceland Show

Iceland Monitor is reporting that 2,000 tickets have been added at the upcoming Guns N' Roses concert in Laugardalur in Reykjavik on July 24th. The concert will be the largest ever concert to have been held in Iceland. 

"We're concerned about security and also want to protect the sports field," says PR representative Björn Teitsson speaking to Mbl.is. "The Iceland Football Association were naturally concerned. But as time passed we got a specialist opinion who told us that we have room for more people. We will be placing a temporary floor across the field and this number of people should fit very comfortably."

Guns N’ Roses re-release of Appetite For Destruction has returned to the Billboard Top 200 chart after more than 29 years at the #10 position. The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units. Units are comprised of traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA).



The Appetite For Destruction: Locked N’ Loaded box is the one true GN’R Holy Grail. The box includes the Super Deluxe Edition with 4 CDs featuring the album newly remastered for the first time ever; B-sides N’ EPs newly remastered; the previously unreleased 1986 Sound City Session N’ More recordings; a Blu-ray Audio disc with the album, bonus tracks and music videos in brand new 5.1 surround sound along with the unearthed music video for “It’s So Easy” originally shot in 1989 but never finished; and a 96-page hardcover book showcasing unseen photos from Axl Rose’s personal archive and a wealth of memorabilia.
 

In addition, the Locked N’ Loaded box contains high quality collectables including seven 12-inch 180g audiophile vinyl discs, seven 7-inch singles on yellow vinyl, a dozen lithos newly visualizing each song on Appetite, 5 custom hand-made metal-cast band skull face rings, 5 hand-made metal-cast band skull face lapel pins, buttons, patches, replica concert tickets and gig flyers, 5 metal skull face and signature-stamped guitar picks, a turntable mat, wall posters, replica ‘85/’86 club days banner, a Robert Williams painting litho, never-before-seen band lithos, a numbered certificate of authenticity and more.
