Last night I saw Tommy Stinson at a super small venue. There was only about 30 of us there. After the show he took the time to talk and take pictures with everyone.
I didn’t have a lot of time to talk to him but I did get a couple questions in
I was wearing the new gnr tour jacket and when I first approached him he said that’s a cool jacket
I asked him if there was any truth to the rumour about a possible gnr album being released in 2011 or so. He gave me a somewhat confused looked and said no idea about that.
He said there was a bunch of extra songs recorded from CD but no plans to release anything
He said he wanted to take back some of those songs. I said “like going down? That’s a pretty cool song”. He said “Yeah! That’s one of them”
Then we left and went outside. I was having a smoke outside of the venue and I see Tommy walk out.
I approach him again. I asked him if he’s heard the new gnr single Perhaps.
“No I haven’t heard it yet but I do remembering Working on it” (with a smile)
I said to him “man I’m so obsessed with Chinese democracy. I could ask you questions all night about the album”
He says “it’s a really great album isn’t it?”
I said “I fucking love it”
He says “it’s pretty incredible what Axl had to go through to get that out”
That was pretty much it. I wish I asked him another question about the last time he remembers Axl in the studio recording vocals. I feel like I failed you guys by not asking that question but everything happened so quick.
