Richard going back to his old band Pale Divine

 GUNS N' ROSES Guitarist RICHARD FORTUS To Reunite With Former Band PALE DIVINE - July 13, 2008
According to a posting on the GUNS N' ROSES fan site GnrDaily.com, GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Richard Fortus will reunite with his old band PALE DIVINE on December 29 at the Pageant in St Louis, Missouri.

PALE DIVINE was a local St. Louis band who later changed its name to THE EYES. The four-piece alternative group independently released "Freedom In A Cage", which was produced by David Probst. They became hugely popular for their live shows as they mixed their originals with underground covers from such bands as RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS and BAUHAUS. Drawing from the likes of JIMI HENDRIX and STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN, the flamboyant and original Fortus led THE EYES into being a premiere act dominated by their dark image, high energy, and fantastically produced sound. They were eventually signed by Atlantic Records and subsequently toured the U.S. with THE PSYCHEDELIC FURS in support of their only album, "Straight To Goodbye".

why would it be irrational to ponder the fact that members are planning shows (even if it is a one off show) supposedly during ( or alittle after)  the rumored "christmas buying season"  when everyone is speculating the album to be released.  I am just saying  you would think that if something was to happen around that time.. GNR would be their only priority. Not rehearsals and shit like that for other bands

In my mind these guys should have zero time doing anything else but preparing, practicing and getting themselves ready for the release of CD. If they are doing anything else it shows me they have too much time on their hands....that is not good.

With Richard leaving and Robin being back with NIN now would be a perfect time to bring back the original Guns!  :nod: :nod: :nod:

What?! Richard hasn't left, he's playing a one off. And Robin hasn't officially left (and i hope he doesn't either).
I agree with 'I ARE ESS', theres some seriously irrational comments.
