Nice bit of invented PR...old school promotion, but still effective...not saying it didn't happen, but it was no coincidence...
#2 Re: Guns N' Roses » how are the shows selling this time around? » 749 weeks ago
I don't think TIL and NR should be played back to back however.
that's a definite way of ensuring that everybody fucks off to the beer counter 
if Jungle is no longer an opener, then it should have been moved to the encore section....that prolonged intro they had in 02 and 06 is a great teazer....i just dont see it working in the middle of the set...but i'm probably wrong...
lets see what happens....
#3 Re: Guns N' Roses » Robin's Guitar Stuff for Sale » 750 weeks ago
For me it would be sentimental value. I've loved that guitar since the first moment I saw it.
me too...but its not really a guitar.
if it had the hardware in it, and was basically a guitar robin used, then it would be cool...heck, I almost bought the last one he had going on eBay...i get the fan value in it....
but this is ripped to shreds...and not even during a concert, so that you can at least say he destroyed it during his manic last solo in paradise city...it was probably his guitar tech guy who was using it for spare parts...

Fuck me, the guitar used to write Better and Discipline is going for $500? I'm sorely tempted...
well, technically, its just the wood which is on sale...:haha:
the bits he used to write those epics have been taken out...
I'm surprised its even going for that much, to be honest...i just can't see the value of any sorts in an empty shell like that....not even for a hardcore collector...
#5 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Slash Sahara Japan 5" CD SINGLE » 753 weeks ago
slash's guitar work in Paradise City is alright...he did a good job...different but still the same at the same time...
vocals are shocking though...it feels unfinished...
however, all the people who are flocking to Black Eyed Peas shows worldwide currently would go bananas for that shit.

Cool!
Is that facebook profile official?
yes it is.
#7 Re: Guns N' Roses » GN'R makes official tour announcement on MySpace » 753 weeks ago
its on their facebook profile too.
#8 Re: Guns N' Roses » Request to GNR concerning their shows. » 754 weeks ago
what i would like to see from GNR this time round is the following:
- a bigger, more custom made stage....it was sad to see them on a small stage in 06/07...they're a big band, they need a custom made stage...interesting layout, ups and downs, something which extends into the crowd...all those things...i want to get excited the way U2 fans get excited when they see their setup...
- more interesting use of the screens....i was bored by those in 06/07....either change the shape of them, or have one fucking big one...or whatever else you can think of....but that standard shit...too entry level for me...
- better camera operators...this is a must...not all of us are in the front row, and we have to rely on the screens to see what the band is up to on the stage...and i I'd want to see Ron during the final November Rain solo, and not Tommy....the operators need to be briefed on who plays what in the set, and they must follow them accordingly.
- better pyro....same here, it felt a bit low rent last time round...there is choice out there for some exciting pyro effects and confetti canons, and they could perhaps try and employ something a bit more interesting here too...
overall, I'd like a unique show to GNR only.
EDIT: also, the option to buy/download the show you just went to see is an ace idea...

So when are you's going to launch that shiny new, all singing all dancing, forum layout that was mentioned a couple of months ago? When GNR land in Japan?
thanks for the suggestion, we may just do that.
in all honesty, real life took over for the past few weeks, which resulted in a bit of a delay on my end. But its there, it's looking good, and i'm sure you will enjoy it too...
