Robin Finck's recieved its first update since January, there's no mention of touring with Gn'R, just thought you'd all like to know.

http://www.robinfinck.com/updates/index.php

Recieved some word from Tommy Stinson's Yahoo! Group people he's "full on-board with Gn'R", still haven't gotten that full update which was promised last week.

mod edit. I've asked you nicely a few times to write properly. By ignoring this very reasonable request you forfeit your priveledge to make a post.

When you're prepared to post in a manner which others can read then you will once again be allowed to post.

Finck kinda sucks, at least what he did on the 2002 tour, but if he played IRS solo, then I didn't say anything.. if not... i play better than him

the scom isn't impossible, its not as hard as everyone thinks, it just takes time.

the intro is easy and the last solo takes time.

buckethead did the 2 middle solos.

I can already see some idiot posting:
"NO TOUR DATES on finck's site, That means Finck is out, Slash is back in"

GFinkN'R · « **Reply #14 on:** March 23, 2006, 04:46:31 PM »

yes..........if you've noticed.............Fincks sight is not really about music :\ therefore...........no tour dates................

rockerroller · « **Reply #15 on:** March 23, 2006, 04:51:45 PM »

it really isn't about music, check it out and you'll see what his real intentions are with the site.

finck sucks balls man. He is the worse guitar player I've EVER seen. Especially during november rain -- his shit is horrible. He doesn't even play on key and looks like an idiot.

GFinkN'R · « **Reply #17 on:** March 23, 2006, 05:06:20 PM »

well I'm a big fan of Finck

and his work over the years and not only hope but expect that he'll be great on CD........after all.........we are talking bout Axl

.........who expects the best and if Finck wasn't up to the challenge then Axl would have got rid of him......time will tell though...

Robin, what are you doing these days man?

R ob i n: yesterday, i went to terminal island federal prison, near long beach. my second time. i was in there with a few folks called the freedom light ministry. they are practitioners of truth (bad mamba jambas) and offer spiritual guidance and support for the inmates. this is NOT some dusty, archaic, stuck-in-the-mud, dogmatic pleasantry designed to trick you into 'feelin' good' only to set you to crash when noone's lookin'. these people are walkin' their talk and holdin' you in the vibration of the most high, creative, fluid and absolute, calling you out by the essence of who and what you are in all eternity, fully present in love and in beauty. that's the truth. i brought a guitar and sang some songs on a partied on baby grand. i never really know what to expect.

this time is an elective for the inmates, not everyone in there shows up for the service. about 30 or 40 guys. it was later shared what courage it takes to even step foot in the room, that many more of the inmates wanted to participate but were afraid of being derided by the rough ntough testosterone out on the common lawn. "...not something you want to wake up to in here."

we were with traffic and arrived a little late. i entered the room to these men sitting silently in a circle, their chairs lined the perimeter of the walls, leaving the empty center. they were in meditation. i think. we unstacked a few more chairs and found our place against a wall, widening the circle. fluorescent lights and classroom tiles, white painted cinderblock walls. there's a mic and small p.a. , was there a guard?, with the appropriate feedback. what struck me first was how many young guys, 20's, were sitting in here. old guys too. but i guess i would have expected more of that. i'm told some show up (to this room) because they're curious. some for the fellowship. some come for the reading, for the speaker, the music, and some come 'cause there may be women, which there were.

after the evocation and selected reading, the speaker spoke his word. there was a round of questions, specific and general comments and we passed the mic around. everyone shared what was on their heart. we talked about quantum mechanics, ultimate reality, family, katrina, guns, god, gangs and ice cream. then i sang some songs.

each person offered such a totally honest view from where they were in their life, in jail, in fear and in love. bein' a dad, a grand-dad, bein' 22. one guy had lists of names tattooed on his neck and everywhere and spoke in a tough but hesitant voice. he had previously been a gang leader and will be released soon (several months). he commented that with all this talk about love unconditional goin' on in here, he had to stop and figure just what's bein' said. "i didn't grow up with love. i mean, i guess i love my mudder and e'rythang, but i don't know what love looks like, what it feels like, what it is, really. .......(very long silence)...........but i wanna know."

this chrysalis in consciousness was the sweetest place to be, bar none. longing was immediately infused with peace, wisdom, a call to action and fueled by the support of each individual present. and this room was a VERY mixed melody. i could see in his face a change so profound, so sincere in him, that it lifted every single other person in the room simply by his sheer presence of being. and i aint bein' plain soft here. this was a powerful time. heartache, pain, confusion, regret, were all being dissolved and falling away. a seed of clarity showed up through the funk. insight took root and is climbing and reaching higher now. one after another continued to share themselves in a light so real and pure, unhindered and unbroken.

there's a bell that rings every two hours when they all need to go physically check in. everyone gets up in their white sneakers and sweats, looks at their watch, and moves along. maybe a little different. i did.
