Yeah they all communicate via twitter and Facebook.

Yeah that was posted after Fernando posted this:
Fernando @ HTGTH:
Just posted on gunsnroses.com - I need to make time to post and read htgth/gunsnroses.com for what's what in the gnr world. Sorry about that - My message responded to someone saying that "people" are reading too much into bumble's crew comment.

I too believe that a lot is being made of a simple heat of the moment venting session. We were all tired, but we too were also happy to embark on a private show to St. Tropez. To suggest that we (GNR) would think less of the crew, and/or put them in harm's way, or exhaustion; is mistaken. And anyone in the crew can vouch for what I am saying.
We chartered 6 planes back and forth, in which allowed band and crew to travel with ease and not what might be lead to believe by some, after reading Bumble's tweet. The show in St. Tropez, was by far the easiest gig to date, for our band and crew. Even Izzy was there!
Just really bums me out that Bumble wrote something to suggest we didn't care about our crew. We are a family away from our homes which have been together for some more than 10 years and respect one another.

Ive deleted the link since it doesn't lead to anything relating to his post that I can tell.

Ive edited the thread title.

I think he is referring to some of the twitter/facebook stuff currently being said between Ron and Fernando at the moment. Although the original poster didn't make that clear at all with their post.
In light of recent tweets by Ron Fernando said:

Ron subsequently said:
Oh geez... seems some people are blaming Axl for the difficult logistics the crew had at the end of the tour with the extra gig thrown in. Allllways blamin' the singer.... my fault, I went on a twitter rant (www.twitter.com/bumblefoot/status/226815415882493952) He doesn't plot out the travel itineraries between shows, not how it works. The planners did the best they could to make everything happen, was just no way to make it easy on the crew. On a positive, once upon a time tours had canceled shows, now they have added shows... so there. Thank you all again for being such great audiences everywhere we went Made a lot of new friends that I hope I'll be seeing soon.......

Im going on the 30th August - can't wait.
The Perth gig is bascially in a large club that has capacity of apprx 2,000 people, so it should be a pretty intimate setting which will be awesome!!

Good choice I think that's one of the best songs on the album and I find Myles' voice works well on it. It's not in that irritating nasal range the whole time, I think he sounds good.
It's a catchy tune.

They came to Oz in 2007 and again in 2010.

Slash is definitely about making a buck. Even when it's playing with friends it's about how they can make a buck out of it. I don't begrudge him that, he's got a talent so he might as well flog it.
I do disagree with some of his choices, I think he should be more discerning, but other than that I think he should pin his ears back and go for it and capitalise on his talent and profile.
Same with Axl he should do the same because he's not going to make money out of selling records anymore. Doesn't mean he shouldn't make any, since they are the reason to stay fresh and then get out and tour again and make more dollars etc. But I don't think anyone in the music business can be too proud these days or pretend they have some type of integrity or high moral ground when it comes to selling out. Reality is if they want to continue to make a dollar from it then they have to be commercial. That means moving with the times and prostituting yourself to a degree.

Haha that elephant noise is a great description for the sound at the start of Shacklers, i know exactly the bit you mean Monkey.
Reminds me of the bubble noise in the mddle of Better. Someone told me it was Pitmans synth. I Gotta admit to being fucken ignorant of some of that shit, I'm used to a more straight forward rock sound without all the extra fruit.
