It took the band five years, but Guns N’ Roses is coming back to the United States. It all started with the announcement of a few concert dates in the South. Well, every single couple of days the list of venues has grown. Now Guns N Roses tickets are being sold for nine concert dates. Many are expecting more dates to be announced, so be prepared for a show in your area if it is not already on the schedule.

This is still technically the Chinese Democracy Tour, but unlike the legs of the tour that traversed the rest of the world, this leg will feature all the band’s hits. Why? Well, Chinese Democracy may have debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 and it may have gone platinum according to the RIAA, but the album was a disappointment in the United States with no songs becoming hits. The 2006 album was much better received elsewhere in the world, which is why Axl Rose and the gang have spent so much time abroad.

So far, the Guns N Roses tour opens on October 28, 2011 at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida and ends on November 19, 2011 at the Comcast Theatre in Hartford, Connecticut. With 25 years in the music industry, Guns N Roses has plenty of hit singles to choose from. They should be able to use a new play list every night.
