The band has postponed due to illness
Guns N Roses has postponed their concert in St. Louis on Saturday (Sept 9th) due to illness. The band was scheduled to appear at Busch Stadium with The Pretenders, but that will no longer be happening this weekend.
“Hang on to your tickets, the event organizer is working to reschedule the concert. You will receive an update via email as soon as the status of the event changes or the new date is announced,” a statement from the St. Louis Cardinals reads. “Please note, fans who are unable to make the rescheduled date will be eligible for a refund.”
The Cardinals didn’t elaborate on who was ill or their condition. Stagehands are currently disassembling the staging. No new date has been rescheduled as of press time.
The band played a show in Saratoga Springs, New York last night (Thurs, Sept 7th) and are scheduled to perform next on Tuesday, September 12th in Knoxville, Tennessee with Dirty Honey as support.
Earlier this month, singer Axl Rose issued an apology on X after a New York concert stating he was “a little horse.”
GNR is currently on its massive 2023 World Tour, headlining stadiums, festivals, and arenas throughout the summer and fall. Carrie Underwood, The Pretenders, Alice In Chains, The Warning, and Dirty Honey are supporting select dates. The 2023 World Tour marks the first time the group has toured North America since the monumental We’re F’N Back! Tour in 2021, which also steamrolled stadiums coast-to-coast including their first headliner at Banc of California Stadium in Los Angeles, CA.
The iconic group is also one of six headliners for Power Trip, a new festival taking place this fall in Indio, CA with AC/DC, Metallica, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Tool.
GNR’s now-legendary reunion Not In This Lifetime… Tour from 2016-2019 stands out as the “third-highest-grossing tour of all time.”
