Who says he didn't talk to GNR about GNR? And I wouldn't call that Q&A a press conference. If it weren't for the secret taping from the audience member, we probably wouldn't have heard much about this if at all. Let's not act like Axl is holding Slash down now. Once the tour kicks off they'll be back in the spotlight. Slash makes Axl bigger and better just like Axl does for Slash, lets be fair. It works both ways.

That's a long day. I'm usually not up early enough to start drinking at 9. I had a roommate that would wake up hungover and continue on to fight through it the next morning. He'd pass out in the early afternoon and a couple of times he'd wake up at 6pm, thinking it was 6am. He'd hop in the shower to get ready for work. I'd wait until he was all freshened up to let him know he had another 12 hours to kill. Good times!

Dave Kushner was formerly in Guns N' Roses? I think they took that rumor a little too seriously.

Yeah, but most of the shows aren't scheduled to start until 7 or 8. That's the printed time on the ticket, so you know that going in. You also know there's an opening act, so obviously Guns isn't going to start by 7 or 8. So I think the earliest you could expect them on is probably 90 minutes after the scheduled start time, and let's be honest, that's probably reaching a bit. We'll have to wait to see how the first few stadium shows go and then we'll have a better idea. Bottom line is though, you know enough ahead of time to decide if it fits into your schedule. If it's too late, I'd suggest not buying a ticket, or sucking it up for one night and making any necessary adjustments. If that's not possible however, I probably wouldn't go because it would take away from your enjoyment.
