Outrageous Axl Rose Tour Rumor Debunked

The band staged a tribute to Frey, who died in January, at the 2016 Grammy awards the following month. Jackson Brown took the late co-founder's position.

In March Henley described the show as the Eagles' "final farewell" and added: "I don't think you'll see us performing again." But in September he said there was a possibility that Deacon Frey could take part in another round of shows.

Now Henley tells the Washington Post: "I don't see how we could go out and play without the guy who started the band. It would just seem like greed or something. It would seem like a desperate thing."

Drummer Lars Ulrich has said that, prior to writing sessions for the follow-up to 2008's Death Magnetic, he went through a total of 1600 ideas to identify the strongest ones.

Now Hetfield tells La Viola: "Once an album is finished the box of riffs is thrown away. We use the best. There's no reason to save it if it's not good - we'll write new stuff. I'm very interested in moving forward."

The event will feature musical performances, panel discussions and guided tours. Performances will include Prince-affiliated acts like the Revolution, Morris Day & The Time, New Power Generation and Liv Warfield & Shelby J with members of 3rdEyeGirl.

The move comes after it was discovered something fishy seemed to be affecting the Hall's voting results, which spiked dramatically over the course of only one day with over 500,000 votes cast.

He only found out when he visited his bandmate's home and found recording gear in the smallest room. Paul tells Loudwire: "He's got so much stuff, man. One of the things people don't know about Dime, he had a guitar in his bathroom.

The package is released on December 16 and will be available on black and gold mixed vinyl, and will feature a number of bonus tracks - including live acoustic songs and covers.

Frontman Corey Taylor previously reported that Stone Sour had demoed 18 songs for their sixth album, tentatively due next year. He said: "We're going back to basics. I'm an old-school guy - I think most of us are. The thing that I loved about great albums is that you would get it and you would want to study everything.

And on February 4, Home Of Metal creators Capsule will launch a three-year worldwide initiative after securing �450,000 in funding from Arts Council England.

Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi says: "An artist or band's success can be measured by their relationship with the fans, and the Home Of Metal exhibition brought home just how dedicated and loyal ours are. It's always humbling to realize how you've touched people's lives with your music. A project where fans are actively involved will be great."

The promo comes as troubled frontman Ivan Moody suffered another onstage meltdown last weekend. He appeared to suggest his mum was dying after apologizing for his sub-par performance.

He tells Uncut: "My main worry was what I was going to say to the crowd as the band are tuning their 12-string guitars between songs. "You can't let the dead air settle, you have to fill it, and that's what Peter became good at."

And when he attempted to tell a humorous story during a show in Spain, Collins realized he was out of his depth. He adds: "I used to tell little stories. Sometimes it was terribly embarrassing. I concocted this story for The Cinema Show. We were in Spain in a bullring and for some reason I can't quite fathom, the story involved an inflatable doll.

"There was this guy, trying to blow the doll up, and he's smoking and of course he bursts the doll. It was quite funny on paper. But I'm standing there in this bull ring, telling my story, which is written on a bit of paper in my hand, in pidgin Spanish, trying to blow up an inflatable doll. It became quite clear this story was going to take a good half hour."

Other bands announced for the event include Primus, Bush, Papa Roach, The Offspring, Alter Bridge, Chevelle and Seether. Korn frontman Jonathan Davis says:

Romero said: "I feel really good with my job. I tried to make justice, not just to the songs, but all the singers. I just try to sing the songs in my own way and my own style and I think the people appreciate that. I'm not just a copy of the other singers, I prefer to sing like Ronnie Romero singing those songs.

Bassist Gene Simmons recently said of the KISS approach to performing: "All that matters is what happens on that stage - that's electric church. It's our job - anyone who gets up on that stage - to create magic time.

He tells Metal Insider: "Writing something that other people can get and understand - I'm glad I can be of assistance, because really, I was literally screaming my heart out about this particular situation in my life.

"The same thing goes with many other subjects, but I also had the whole drug addiction thing - people coming up to me going, "Man, I struggled for years and your lyrics helped me."

Previously, the You Me At Six frontman personally sold tickets to fans for an intimate show in London to prevent touts from taking advantage. Now he tells BBC Politics: "When a gig is announced, fans head to primary ticket websites, often to be told it's sold out. But most of the time they're not."It's the touts who have bought them, forcing fans to pay hiked up prices on secondary websites.

The 25th anniversary edition of Soundgarden's third album Badmotorfinger was released this month and guitarist Thayil says the process of trawling through old audio recordings and video footage gave him a better appreciation of the album, which he says he previously thought of as being tainted by the "MTV, commercial-radio thing."

Thayil tells Rolling Stone: "It's not a glowing, sunshine-y memory. I always think of how we shot two videos for Outshined. I developed this understanding of the song as being commercial and pedestrian and how it was in MTV's Buzz Bin.

The two parties have since come to an agreement and spoke fondly of each other in statements to the press. "I'm pleased that an agreement is now in place that allows wrestling operations to continue," Corgan said in a statement.

Bush has just released a 3CD and 4LP titled Before The Dawn which was recorded during her 22-date run in London in 2014 - her first full live performances since 1979.

She tells Macleans: "We have a female prime minister here in the UK. I actually really like her and think she's wonderful. I think it's the best thing that's happened to us in a long time.
