The band, who haven't toured together since a set of Asian gigs in July 2007, are rumoured be hitting the road again including some UK dates. The touring line-up will be Axl Rose, DJ Ashba, Richard Fortus, Tommy Stinson, Frank Ferrer, Dizzy Reed, Bumblefoot, and Chris Pitman. An announcement on UK dates is expected shortly.
In a posting on the Guns N' Roses official website, Axl Rose spoke of his excitement about the band's newest member: "DJ's a gifted, energetic guitarist that Guns N' Roses is proud to have on board!! We're very excited to have the opportunity to work together. Guns' radar has silently been aware of DJ's presence for quite some time. He brings a fresh approach to our particular brand of mayhem expanding the tapestry of Guns N' Roses live. Once DJ's name was in the hat, the hat disappeared!!"
DJ Ashba has also confirmed he excited at the prospect of playing on the road, "It's an honour to have the opportunity to be a part of a band that I have always loved and respected. I'm looking forward to working with Axl, who is not only one of the few great front men of our generation, but a true artist."
