Hundreds of people have been writing, wanting to know about GNR's future touring plans. I'm not the guy to ask about ongoing bizz - if anyone, you'd have to ask GNR management about future plans, but please understand that if they haven't officially announced plans, they're not going to do it through personal emails. As for me, I'm not at business meetings with booking agents, promoters, venues, sponsors, and *I don't want to be*. Being the guitarist in GNR is enough, not going to open the door to managerial duties. When GNR management has confirmed that everything did-or-did-not work out to make shows happen, and I'm 100% sure that I have the confirmed final developments on things, and if it won't screw up how GNR wants to announce things, only then will I comment. Anything sooner than that would be spreading information prematurely and could be setting up fans for disappointment, and could affect the outcome of deals that are still being worked on. (To the skeptics, NO there's no f**king 'gag order' you douchebags, I'm just being responsible to GNR and to fans.) When GNR management is able to confirm anything, they will do it, in the way they feel is best, when they feel the time is right. Until then, think about other things. Build a cardhouse. Fry an egg. Read a book by a tree. When GNR management is ready to announce accurate definite information, they will.

Thanks to everyone that reached out wanting to know. You've been a pain in my ass, and I love you for it. Out of decency to fans, knowing many are ready to rearrange their plans and put a lot of effort into being at shows, I hope any confirmations can come sooner than later... some of you have plane tickets to book, time off from work to plan, tickets to save up for - I appreciate the Hell out of it and am grateful for it and will do my best to make it worth it, given the chance. Thanks..... Smile

Ron

GNR are the douchebags for letting people sell tickets to shows that they still might pull out of. I just hope the tickets sold well so the people who are making the effort to travel don't get fucked. This band has absolutely no fucking class.

I like the music Axl made when Robin, Bucket, and Brain were with him. I could give a fuck about ever getting an album written with Ron and Ashba but I'd still like to hear CD II and get a tour where these guys replicate Robin and Bucket's work the best they can.

Funny because CDII will likely be rerecorded with them...

Really? I wouldn't

There are so many possibilities in the world to spend money for ... I wouldn't throw it out of the window like that.

Even though he isn't management, he should at least know something about touring, even if its just something like a start date or location.

he surely know that their some possibles dates discussed but like he said, wait for a management announcement in this matter, it's the best way to avoid dissapointement. (still amazed how bipolar are gnr fans, yeah a tour so exciting, then, wtf they lied to us bastards, etc. Kind of funny :P)

sunnyp · « **Reply #11 on:** September 16, 2009, 05:58:52 PM »

Wow. Playing the guitar and writing a few emails seems to be really stressful.

This smells like the rancid pen of Del James to me; terrible punctuation, slapdash spoken English transcribed to form offensive prose. Just what you'd expect from a 'professional' writer. We all know how much Gnr's 'press officer' loves the fans.

GnrJanus · « **Reply #12 on:** September 16, 2009, 06:16:31 PM »

Ron is right... you don't give us.. yes there is a tour.. yes we're playing then then and then...
when not everything is written in stone yet...

we know japan is a fact...

but what if there are more things to come... and still some issues need to be worked out...
let them sort it out and when they are ready to talk to us they will...

It'll probably be similar to what he did with CD but I hope not. Axl must know that it's all about him at this point. He could dissolve this lineup at any time and next to nobody would give a shit.

But he stated previously that if he went out and said something and at the last moment it fell through, people would be calling him a liar. I don't blame him for keeping behind the scenes management stuff under lock and seal.

When you go out to eat, you don't see a butchered animal being prepared, you see the end result when it is served to you at your table.

Where was this "already posted"? And even if it was, so what? Why go out of your way to say that to Bucket4life? He went out of his way to make the post and inform people. No need to knock it.

some of the douchebags are fans. I cant say I was emailing him or anything but everyone has considered a gag order regarding gnr and their hired guns. The truth is no one really knows anything about what they do, and I guess we shouldnt care. I think Ron is finally catching the gnr bug.

It's not his job to do so, nor does he want it to be his job.

Look mr. GNR guitar player. You can't be upset when the fans have nothing to go based off of. What do you expect?

PS- Ron is still 2 thumbs up in my book. I wish the poor chap wasn't stuck in the middle-man role between the band and its fans.

stedy76 · « **Reply #23 on:** September 18, 2009, 03:34:06 AM »

Were all hunting down the current members for anwsers and asking them impossible questions, We all know there all nice guy's who actually care and understand what us fans mean to the whole 'music business' and it must be really hard that they firstly need to get our acceptance that they have entered into a band we hold so dear to our hearts, and then admit there non the wiser that us when it comes to info or anwsers. That c*#k Axl! he's a prick, it's his band, he know's whats happening, when and where and he gives us nothing...ever...he's a joke, someone who I'm growing to dislike, I'm not the only one I feel...

Randy B Lahey · « **Reply #26 on:** September 18, 2009, 04:00:47 PM »

Douchebag is more of a word that Del James would use; Axl is more of a "fuckhead" kind of man.

nah, douchebag is Ron's favourite, too. see his latest shirt:
