So much for patience.

Guns N’ Roses announced their rescheduled tour dates for 2021, but Atlanta is no longer part of the itinerary.

Ticketholders for the band’s Aug. 12 show at Bobby Dodd Stadium at Georgia Tech – which was postponed in May – received a notice from the university ticketing office Tuesday night that scheduling conflicts and venue availability prevented the concert from being moved to next year.

As well, a message on GNR’s social media indicated that a handful of 2020 dates couldn’t be rescheduled.

Ticket refunds are expected to be automatically processed to the original credit card used for purchase within five-to-seven business days. A 30-day refund window also became available July 27 (1-888-268-9328 for details).

The note sent to Atlanta fans also mentioned that previous ticket buyers will be given early access to purchase tickets the next time GNR comes to town.
