Fernando

I wonder where the Argentinean show will be. Roxy maybe?

It's bigger than 150 though...

There will not be a Argentina show.

TITLE Guns N' Roses plan "secret" shows in South America

TEXT

The shows are set for undisclosed locations in Sao Paulo on Thursday and Buenos Aires on March 20. Plans are also in the works for a show in Rio De Janeiro.

Organizer Jamison Ernest said each venue will hold about 150 people. He declined to reveal too much information for fear of riots by uninvited guests. He will co-host the Sao Paulo show with Brazilian model Ana Beatriz Barros.

The 11-date tour, the band's first trek around the continent since its heyday in 1992, began on Sunday in Brasilia. Dates are on tap through April 1 in Quito, Ecuador. The band will also play Uruguay, Chile, Peru, Venezuela and Colombia.

Ernest, a friend of Guns N' Roses singer Axl Rose, also runs a clothing company and has a band, both named Yellow Fever. He previously organized three secret Guns N' Roses shows, two in New York City and one in London.

Rose is the only remaining member left from the band when its popularity peaked during a decade spanning the 1980s and 1990s. The other members were either ousted or quit. Even though its 2008 album "Chinese Democracy," its first release in 17 years, was a major flop, the band remains a strong concert draw.

Rose and his new crop of bandmates were last in Brazil to play the Rock in Rio festival in January 2001.

there you go folks, riot away.

Let's clear this up. There will not be three shows in South America. Not sure why Jamison is commenting on something he shouldn't be.

Prepares for outraged respones from people with as much of a social life as a fucking sloth.

Fernando, you jetted off to South America yet?

Not yet... Enjoying NYC a tad more.

omg fernando

Hello.... Yahhhhhh......

By the way I hope this drinking is just a bit of fun and not a problem

It's hard to say for sure since we really don't know what else he does, where he goes, etc. beyond this tour. But the fact that the article says he hasn't hit NYC this hard since 2006 makes me think he's just having fun till the tour resumes.

You guys certainly worry about pointless stuff!

Yeah cause health is something to completely undermine

i think having a considerate thought like that shows the division between fans- there's those who genuinely wish well for the man, and then there's those who are selfishly concerned on whether or not the show (his voice) will go on

I'm not subjecting you to either one, just on a general note

Axl is clearly 20 pounds over weight and pushing 50. The fact that he's out there acting like a perfectly fit 21 year old college student isn't very encouraging news. Sure, he can do whatever he wants but that just tells me he really doesn't give a fuck about his weight and/or health.

I quit drinking at 29 for the sake of health so I couldn't imagine doing it at 48.

You are clearly still a virgin. The fact that you're here complaining about what other people do with THEIR life isn't very encouraging news. Sure, you can do whatever you want but that just tells me that you don't give a fuck about enjoying life.

No, I've done my partying. I've been down Slash's road of near death "fun". Ask Duff if the shit is "fun" and see what he says.

Personally, I don't understand how you or anyone else can say they enjoy life, while at the same time trying their best to snuff it out or degrade it's quality. That's like saying you love your CD collection but then strapping each disc, face down, to the bottoms of your feet and walking on them all day.

Seems kind of ass backwards imo.

Got that right.

zzz....

Boring. Shut up and enjoy the day.

What makes one so judgmental? Seriously though... Quite funny.

Now it's correct.

Buenos Aires and Monteviudeu Sold Out. São Paulo and Porto Alegre only one sector avaible.

Yeah, that was my bad. Sorry for the confusion.

I really don't understand why people keep responding to gnr-cupcake-dave.

Second it.

Hey Fer,

Why Robin and Brain left?

He knows but he can't answer that. Either Axl will say or Robin (highly unlikely) or Brain will have to be the ones to comment.

On topic, I think it's bad ass Axl is talking more but that whole "Killer/Stone cold" thing is not making much sense to me even after I read some Cats trying to explain it in here.

What do you personally think about their departure?

What does it matter? I love Brain, just spoke with him last week. He's doing great and all that jazz...

But in all seriousness, the band is kicking ass... playing big gigs, small gigs, talking to the public... Whatelse? It's like, stop looking for flaws, just enjoy? Woosah the worries away...

I really don't understand why people keep responding to gnr-cupcake-dave.

eye2eye, Bruno Poeyes...Bashing who bashes you... ok seems fair

He has his own reasons and who are you to point your finger at him and tell him that he can't do that? Gimme a break. Give him a break.

Peace man! I understand your point

It's ok, but he has his own reasons to attack some users and we shouldn't bash them for that. It's all good, but some users think they know how Axl and some band members should act. This is annoying...

Who are you talking about?

Kit Kat?

I don't read Madison's posts, she talks like she knows what is happening, why it happened and how it happened...

If you "don't read" my posts, then how can you draw this conclusion?

I have always been open and honest with forum members about everything.

I never censored Merck's letter - even though your Mom and others asked me to. I don't believe in censorship. It's not right.

.. Truth of the matter is that she doesn't know, she compiles stories, made up and/or shared by some; and pieces it all together with duct tape and presents it to mygnr's community, and to some it is received like it's a Picasso. Does it really matter what one rumor stated? I understand talking about the rumor, but when the rumor becomes a topic of discussion that has been cleared up; isn't enough. That, by one saying, it never happened; isn't enough, ..

Are you trying to claim that the forum members who saw this happen in front of their own eyes were lying?

Also, why would the security manager lie to me? What reason would he have?

.. When a "rumor" rises on htgth.com; Jarmo emails me and asks if this is true - if I don't truly know, which yes, it does happen. I let him know I will find out and get back to him, soon enough, he gets his answer.

Yes, we're all painfully aware of how much you censor Jarmo's site.

That's why most people came here.

Debacle.

Take a breather. I won't reply to your explanation of things, because you just babble. You take my words, turn them around and add a question mark on the end of it.

Ah. This is the infamous Fernando.

People know me, I am kind of a big deal. Nice to meet you.

I loved your final "fucking bitch" in the airport fight video, was awesome.

Yeah that was pretty badass.

I did it for mygnr.com and for people like you, that are tired of being held down by the man.

Did you really just say that?

Anyway Fernando, since you're still around, do you have a say on this whole matter (Madison v. Axl Rose)?

Does it really matter what one rumor stated? I understand talking about the rumor, but when the rumor becomes a topic of discussion that has been cleared up; isn't enough. That, by one saying, it never happened; isn't enough, that somehow gives one the "must" to show "its" community that they deserve some explanation of a matter that it isn't hers to address? To discuss, sure - but to go fishing for shit that truly isn't there; is asinine.

She doesn't state her "opinion", she writes in a manner that to some, makes sense - regardless how far off from reality it truly is. Her justification for matters in the past, are so far off - that it is easier to just move on, then try to state a correction, that would only lead to what she would want - a debacle.

When a "rumor" rises on htgth.com; Jarmo emails me and asks if this is true - if I don't truly know, which yes, it does happen. I let him know I will find out and get back to him, soon enough, he gets his answer.

Yes, it is him. The one you can thank for all the leaks we got before the 2006 tour.

It never gets old. How are you CoBrA2168? You should learn to let that shit go, and come up with new material to try to get any sort of a proper response. With shit like that, one can only guess the maturity and intelligence level we are stuck in dealing with.

Ah. This is the infamous Fernando.

People know me, I am kind of a big deal. Nice to meet you.

I think the problem with Madison and this forum in general, is that because for years the members on the forum have pieced together an image of the band, Axl and Axl's life from mis-printed, malicious or made up sources, people have formed a conception- bordering on delusion that they know Axl/ the world of band management personally. As a result this board has become a breeding ground of fallacy, half-truths and misconception. So what it's the internet? It's just people talking shit surely? The truth is that these boards are greatly responsible for perpetuating the misconceptions that create further difficulty for the bad we supposedly like.

For those that hate axl I think it's stupid. You do not know him personally, you may not appreciate his musical style. That's fine, listen to a band you do like. But why would you waste your time spreading your hate?

Similarly to those that claim they love axl or talk about him as if he's your friend. You do not know him either. I love axl's music, and he is a brilliant frontman. But more importantly he is a person and is entitled to a life.

Our only duty as a fan is to support him. Not to invade his life, give him advice or delude ourselves with the fantasy that he needs anything other than support for his music from us.

Standing ovation here!

I couldn't of said it better.

Madison did not deserve that. And what's with calling people "lesbian" as an insult. What a bigot. But we already knew that eh?

I wonder how many more times you can say the same shit, over and over again. How about you move the hell on and/or post something completely different that maybe, helps you look like less of an idiot.

here comes the cavalry

Hardly the cavalry, just takes too much energy to filter so much crap that gets annoying. The guy posted the same sentence fifty times.

Guys, please there was enough insults in this thread.

We all can discuss without insulting each other.

This thread is just full of non-sense. There is no discussion. Should be nuked.

Here's my question, and I know I have only one question to ask him for a long time.

"AXL DO YOU LIKE THE LITTLE MERMAID?!?!??!?"

This was answered.

Hi hi everyone and then some!

And i don't give a damn about legally who ownes the name. I mean how 'rock n' roll' is that?

How "rock n' roll" is it to take someone, who is completely innocent, to court based on the errors of someone else?

When it comes to Axl, it's always someone elses fault.

And if Slash was such a liar, why didn't Axl sue him for the lies in his book? He could've cleaned Slash out and once in for all be victorious in this stupid war where nobody really wins.

Why are you talking about shit you know nothing about? In all seriousness, you should sit back and stop talking like you know anything about anything.

Man, you are just frustrating to read.

Axl paints this picture that Slash is some egotistical control freak while he just sat back and watched everything happen

How ironic. I don't think that's the picture he paints at all - If anything, I think that's the picture that Slash has been painting of him for so many years.

Baffles me that after all of these years, when Slash's doing the finger pointing with no factual foundation - you had nothing to say. Now that Axl responds, - here you are saying that it can't be true.

One of the many things Axl does greatly in, is he knows how to explain the exact actions of one's choosing.

This was a great night, good night.

Wow I just signed in and find that Axl is apparently been here?

And people have apparently acted like jackasses to him? What in the world is going on?

How about being polite?

Axl, if you're still here:

1. What sports do you follow/favorite teams?

2. Have you heard SR-71's song "Axl Rose"? What are your comments on it?

3. Playstation or XBox?

Thanks!

What is wrong with you people. You get Axl fin Rose on a board for the first time ever and you wanna talk about sports and xbox. I head to read over 40 pages of this thread to be able to read 3 relevant things Axl has said.

Yeah, the audacity of some people.

Axl, cherry or original flavor Nyquil?

prefer cherry night time for breakfast around 11pm

Me too.
