Guns N' Roses N' Sturgill Simpson?

Post by John A Arkansawyer »

Guns N' Roses coming to War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock Aug. 5
Sturgill Simpson will join The Not In This Lifetime Tour with Axl Rose, Slash and Duff McKagan.
Does that strike anyone else as kind of an odd pairing?

Probably a huge payday for Sturgill.

He's been on the record as saying hearing Appetite for the first time from an older neighbor completely blew him away, which is a common refrain for people his (and my) age. I'm sure, as Clams said, the payday for those 3 shows isn't too shabby either.

Soundgarden was supposed to open a bunch of dates for them, so he may be a fill-in
And I knew when I woke up Rock N Roll would be here forever

Makes sense. I wasn't thinking in terms of the bands being an odd pairing in and of themselves. I was wondering what the average GnR fan would think of it.
