More shows on tap for Guns N' Roses

Tour dates continue to stack up for resurgent rockers Guns N' Roses , who are now scheduled to play 20 shows between October and January.

Newly confirmed shows have been announced for Greensboro, NC; Worcester, MA; New York City; and Winnipeg, Manitoba. Details about those dates, including ticket on-sale information, are in the itinerary below.

Meanwhile, the tour's previously announced Oct. 5 show in San Diego has been postponed to Jan. 16. Fans holding tickets for the old date can use them for entry to the rescheduled show, or can get refund information at their point of purchase.

The postponement follows earlier word that planned shows in four other cities would be postponed until this winter. The tour, initially scheduled to launch later this month, is currently set to get underway Oct. 20 in Jacksonville, FL.

Frontman Axl Rose is the only remaining original member of GN'R. The group is currently rounded out by keyboardist Dizzy Reed, bassist Tommy Stinson, keyboardist Chris Pitman, drummer Brian "Brain" Mantia, and guitarists Robin Finck, Richard Fortus and Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal.

GN'R has been working the road this year in advance of its supposedly soon-to-be-released album, "Chinese Democracy." The disc, which has been in the pipeline for about a decade, and the release of which has been delayed repeatedly over the years, will be the group's first collection of original material since the early '90s. No specific release date has been announced.
