default_ Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 After all this time with fn nothing I think this is there just to remind people that the band exists and still around touring. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KURT19 Posted March 8, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 8, 2017 My new theory: Some deranged and maniacal fan paid for the billboard on their own and it has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the band at all. Alright, which one of you/us did it??? For the love of God, someone just call up the owner of the billboard already! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally can't think of anything more disappointing than Izzy on stage for AFD anniversary special with the curently line up, guesting. The timing of this billboard is really odd, based on what you have said, then you would expect it to go up in May, to announce any new LA Dates at the end of the tour. @tsinindy all ready pointed out it is unlikely to be promoting AFD as it the UYI logo Whatever it is, somebody is taking a gamble on a billboard effectively promoting nothing apart from the band name, maybe it will get an update soon, a clue to what's being advertised would be helpful. You would respect izzy for not playing? Izzy is only not playing because he wants more "loot". It's a nice and fuzzy idea that izzy is not playing because he has intergrity, but it's for the birds, he wants money. More and more of it. That's why he isn't there. Where is Izzy's reciprocal respect for the fans that defend him all day? And praise him for his intergrity? You would think he would stop by and do an interview or something. I guess he's under a gag order, oh wait, no, he's not in GNR, maybe he doesn't care? Just like everyone says Axl, Slash and duff don't. Nah, not buying it, this is a man of integrity, I guess he's just busy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh the poor fans. Frank ruined the songs for you? Grow a pair, seriously. You have Axl, Slash and Duff up there. If that's not enough for you to enjoy the show then I guess you aren't really that into GN'R. This doesn't make you a purist by the way, it makes you a pain. People complain about Axl worrying about every little thing on an album, you can't even enjoy a live show without doing the same thing. I feel bad for you, the band you love hasn't existed for 30 years, but still you wait and shit on everything else in between because you are special, you are a fan of the " real GN'R".

Nah, not buying it, this is a man of integrity, I guess he's just busy. Integrity by definition is the quality of being honest and have strong moral principles, in my opinion Izzy's tweet stating he would not be at the shows as they wont "split the loot equally" is the most honest response from any of GnR so far. With out falling into the on-going forum debates about Izzy coming back full time, selling his shares, or wanting his shares back as I see no evidence of him asking for this, and Just by taking the one tweet as the state of affairs as Izzy sees it, why shouldn't he ask for an equal split of money if he believes he deserves it? He obviously offended by what was offered and yes thank you for pointing it out but I completely understand money is why he isn't there. Do I feel Izzy should put aside what he feels is right and get out and play for the fans, supporters and defenders. I admit I was disappointed to begin with, but does Izzy owe me that, no of course not. Why should he explain his actions in an interview? look at Stevens recent press, do we gain anything from it other than more to speculate over. Unless the original five come together, an interview will always remain one persons version of events, which is open to debate by who chooses to believe them or not. You say he doesn't care or respect the fans, I disagree. His been busy, two cover song released on youtube and new songs released for download, I personally get more value from this than a guest spot on stage for rehashed GnR, but that's just me. So yes I respect his decision not to play with the current set up. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to be a "purist" to dislike what Frank and Fortus bring to the table... I love seeing Axl, Slash and Duff up there. I enjoy watching live clips almost daily.. It just sucks when Fortus and Frank have moments of suck that detract the amazing experience of seeing Axl/Slash and Duff back up there doing it. They just sound straight up awkward at times. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never requested that he should, I was quite clearly drawing attention to the double standards people apply to these guys. i didn't say he doesn't care or respect the fans. I'm applying the logic many here like to hold Axl, slash and duff to, to izzy, who currently walks on water and can do no wrong. Axl doesn't do an interview and people call it disrespect, izzy does the same and he's a humble guy. Edited March 10, 2017 by MADDOGJONES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl_morris Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 My theory: Remember the Richard fortus interview before he got married? He said they wanted to do St Louis, either last show on the 16' tour or first show of this tour. "It doesn't make sense to kick off a tour in the middle of the country..but we're gonna do it" My guess is the LA show will be a few days before St Louis. Logistically & financially it makes sense. Also, Euro tour ends July 15th and US tour kicks off July 27th. Appetite for Destruction 30th anniversary is on July 21st. Steven adler mentioned they had some cool plans for the 30th anniversary. There will either be a show July 21st, or 24/25 July, in conjunction with the 2/3 days break in between shows which will be before St Louis 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
