MUMBAI: Bustling with musical action after the performance of several legendary artistes like Enrique Iglesias, Korn, Megadeth, David Guetta, Pitbull and more, the live music scene in India is all set to get bigger and better. The country is geared up to open its stage to the year’s biggest act as iconic American hard rock band Guns N’ Roses has announced the dates of their three-city inaugural tour.
Organized by Mooz Entertainment, the tour will commence from 7 December in Bangalore followed by Mumbai on 9 December and Gurgaon on 12 December.
Speaking about the tour, MOOZ Entertainment SVP Karamjeet Singh said, “Our effort is to give rock fans in India a full frontal feel of the GN’R experience. In effect what the audience will see and hear is precisely geared to exacting international standards. We are gearing up for an unbelievable turnout, possibly the highest turnout ever for a rock concert in India. Our conviction comes from the fact that GN’R is one of the most iconic bands of our times with the kind of feedback, emails phone calls that we are already receiving from fans across the country.”
