Inbred Invasion

For those who don't regularly listen to KROQ, you might be surprised to hear the lineup of the KROQ Inland Invasion festival type concert thing. It is being headlined by two of the unlikeliest of bands... Guns 'n' Roses and Alice In Chains. For GNR it will kick off a North American tour.
Can this event revive two dead careers? I have heard that Alice In Chains sounds great with their new front man. Will Layne Staley return from the dead for the concert and then eat Axl Rose's braid covered brain? Are people ready to forgive Axl for his childish behavior? If he storms off stage in a tantrum, will people finally give up on him for good? All these questions will be answered in due time.
Avenged Sevenfold is the best band on the lineup in my opinion. I'd like to see them play but I hate giant festival type concerts and refuse to go to the 909.

I can't say I'm excited about Guns N Roses anymore. Axl is the only guy left in the band, and who knows if he is even going to show up for the concert? Actually Dizzy is still in the band however he joined in 1990. If they actually got the band back together it would be a different story. How can you replace Slash with a guy named Bumblefoot? Or Buckethead? Come on, the guy wears a bucket on his head. Either play guitar, or just wear the bucket, don't do both.

Actually, Buckethead is no longer in the band. Maybe they can get somebody who wears an El Pollo Loco bag.

I think the bucket blew off during a concert and exposed him as a fraud. He actually has a real head.

Maybe he is another one of Garth Brooks's alter egos like Chris Gaines.

WTF??? Jerry Cantrell isnt even in that AIC band?? If not, then they might as well be a cover band.

As for GNR, I agree with what both of you said. However, like Metallica, old GNR is always going to be classic.
