Legendary rockers Guns N' Roses are expected to announce a 2016 reunion tour that features the entire original lineup of members, Dish Nation reported. Los Angeles-based music industry insiders are buzzing with news that the band is expected to hit the road now that lead singer Axl Rose and lead guitarist Slash have ended their decades-long rift.
"Slash and Axl have verbally agreed to get things together again and reform the original band. The live shows is where they can show the world what they had and also make the greatest earnings," an anonymous music insider source told Dish Nation.
Concert promoters are secretly booking a reunion tour, according to the source. Details of the reunion are "expected to leak" soon.
Guns N' Roses guitarist Richard Fortus teased information about the band's plans for the upcoming year during an interview with a St. Louis rock radio station in August.
"There's actually a lot going on with that whole thing right now," Fortus told KSHE 95. "It's looking like next year is going to be a big year for Guns N' Roses."
Just one day before the report surfaced, a series of cryptic tweets were posted from the official Guns N' Roses account.
"What ever happened to no news is good news? Of course today everyone is a journalist," the tweets read. "If only they could read lips... Surely they'll read between the lines."
