Can't wait to read it. I'm more interested in the post 1993 era than in the classic stories though.
Definitely, although I imagine he's got some good tales to tell from the old days. Wouldn't mind hearing his opinion and thoughts on a reunion as well.

Duff said when asked what he thought about Slash's book after it was released 'I think Slash has a worse memory than I do'. So I think certain events will defintiely be different in Duffs book.

Somebody over on HTGTH was saying it was Dizzy, I personally didn't think it was Axl but I'm not sure who it was.

Remember, though, we don't have Robin doing that "teasing" intro anymore...
Good point, probably shouldn't bother playing Jungle anymore actually, it'll never be the same without Robins 'teasing' intro

Whatever it is it looks pretty cool.

I like Scraped, prefer it to Rhiad anyway and think it could sound really good live. Not sure about that intro though.
CD and Jungle are both great openers to a show, it makes sense to have CD as the opener on this tour so for me Jungle has to be the encore opener. Much more impact when it kicks in as an opener.

That would be a fantastic setlist, I would have thought unlikely though, 23 songs as standard seems like wishful thinking to me.

Sky movies put all three Godfather movies on back to back the other day so I set the recorder and have spent the last couple of days watching all three.
Three excellent films, as previously mentioned there's a lot to take in and I suspect it takes considerably more than one viewing to truly appreciate it. First thing that struck me was how fantastic the films looked considering the first two are now pushing fourty years old.
I'd probably say on one viewing of each that the first is my favourite but it's close, I think it's Brando's performance that tips it in part I's favour for me he's simply fantastic. He appears as the all powerful and in control Don for at most an hour before it all crumbles away and Pacino takes centre stage and yet in that time he manages to deliver a performance so memorable that Vitos presence looms over all three films long after his death.
Pacino too is sensational, his portrayal of Michael's rise and fall (if you can call it that) is brilliant. For me he gets better as the saga continues with his performance in III being his best imo.
I was pleasantly surprised with part III, a lot better than I was expecting. All it lacks is a better supporting cast and it would be close to rivalling I and II. It's just missing a Brando, De Niro or even Duvall to take it up a notch or two. However I still think III's very good, the climax for instance I thought was better than both I or II in terms of tension and drama. I think Axlin mentioned that there's definitely a few winks to part I in part III, the 'No' Vincent gives to Mary early on in part III is a carbon copy of the 'No' Michael gives Kay right at the end of part I.
Glad to say I've finally seen them and I'm glad I did, it was well worth the 9 or so hours it took to watch them
On another note, went to see Law Abiding Citizen the other day. Not the best, think Man on Fire meets Saw but without the story of MOF or the suspense of Saw.
