Ron At Hammersmith
« on: June 12, 2006, 10:33:11 AM »
So as you know, the mighty GNR played Hammersmith just under a week ago, due to being at Download ive not yet had the chance to tell my story.

So me and my mate have been emailing Ron for a little while now, he's been replying, so we were a little unsure if it was really him that we were talking to, everything he said sounded completley genuwine, but why would he bother to email us back all the time?

Before the gig, we tell him, if he can see us after then let us know so my mate Neil emails his number to Ron.
Ron replys and says that he can't meet us after but he hopes that we have a good time at the show and he'll try and call tomorrow (the day of the gig)

About 4pm, and Neil texts me

"You'll never guess what, but Ron just called and said to have a good time tonight"

Were still thinking, is someone having us on?

After an incredible show, we wait around, with about 20 other GNR fans.
Ron comes out, he doesn't recognise us, so were thinking maybe it wasn't him this whole time.

He's eating curry and offers it around, i take him up on the offer and he ends up feeding me his food.

So me and Neil are standing there with some friends, like, what do we do, do we go up to him and ask him if it was him that we've been speaking to and run the risk of it not being him and us looking crazy infront of all these fans.

So i'm standing there thinking of the best approch.

Suddenly, it comes to me, Neil still had the phone number on his phone from earlier...

"Call him" i say

No, you do it. Neil says as he shoves the phone in my hand.

At this point Ron is about 5 feet away from me, and im facing him.

All these people are trying to talk to him.

So i call the number, holding the phone, thinking, no way can this happen.

As my phone starts to ring, Rons does aswel.

Hang on, my balls are ringing He says, as he puts his hand in his pocket.

My jaw is literally on the floor, all my mates are laughing

Ron: Hello

Me: Hey

Ron was looking at the floor, he now looks up

Ron: How are ya? {laughing}

Me: I'm great, how are you?

Ron: I'm good, i'm just eating curry, do you want some?

Me: Nah, i'm ok, i had some already

Ron: It's good huh?!

Me: It is! Sorry for calling you like this, i just wanted to make sure it was you

Ron: Its ok

Everyones looking, like, how the hell does she have his number?

It was so amazing.

I hung up. and he was still speaking into the phone, haha.

I went over to him and held his curry while he was signing autographs, then he took it back of me, after i had eaten like half of it.
My hand was all greasy and he was like,

"is your hand greasy? Just rub it on my leg"

He then lifted his leg in the air.

It was so surreal, and he was saying how he would see us next month.

After that, we followed Axls car through london, and i got within about 2 feet of him, we also met Finck.

Definatly one of the best nights of my life

 :D

What are your current thoughts about Kurt Cobain?

Axl: I said I'm going on ChiDem now and he said whatever & walked away other than that I've been busy.

Neil = me(GNRforever)

Im sitting in Mcdonalds on Wednesday around 4pm and my phone goes.

Its Ron just wishing me to enjoy the show. I was so stunned i didnt know what to say.

Its amazing i never thought i would be chatting to someone in GNR never mind over the phone.

Me and Karin did well. We got pics with Ron and Robin. We were front row at the gig. Managed to get a hold on Ron guitar at PC as well when he jumped down and nearly got Robins shoe when he stage dived.

So good to see izzy on stage last night aswell.

8 more shows to go next month.

Cant wait!!!

That Ron Thal seems like too much. It's unreal that he treats the fans as well as he does.

If ron thal isn't the nicest man in the music industry, I'd like to meet that person as well. I met outside of Hammerstein, and he was just the coolest guy on earth. No ego at all, he had a great sense of humor, an appreciation of the past, and was really just humbled by the support. He is taking a risk everytime he mingles with the fans, because who knows if there is a maniac who will attack him for not being slash, but he doesn't care. He likes to interact with the fans.

This guy can take this new band over the top. Not only from a technical standpoint, eventhough he is about as good as they come, but from a personality standpoint. He adds personality to the band.

I hate to say, but remember all the folks that were ready to crucify him after it was announced, and wailed on him after the first show, and how he was a terrbile fit etc.  

Guess you should have reserved judgement until he had a chance to fit in a bit.

I am glad he is working out :)
