Well I'm gunna have a guess at something here and it's possible I'm wrong, but that drumming style sounds like Frank on the Shadow of Your Love at gnr.fm 

 

Not that I want it to be.  Just my observation.

I've never been a fan of him being in GN'R, it just sounds like his playing.

Definately is '86 Axl vocals without a doubt.

Well I've actually convinced myself now.  It definately is Frank playing drums to SOYL.  I'm thinking re-recorded music with Axl's vocals from '86.

Well, ok, not much, but still. I did something that you hip youngsters might find strange. I went to my local record store (Plato in Groningen) which is also a dot on the gnr map. They had the poster:

 

Please note that the bike with the white tires on the right of the picture is mine. 

When I was there I visited the site while there it said this: 

 

 

So I did and it asked me to share it on Facebook or Twitter: 

 

So I did. 

After that I asked around. They said they were pretty sure it was a re-release, but they didn't know much more than that. Just that they were asked to participate with this. Maybe they just weren't telling, but they seemed genuine. One guy also mentioned that he though you could win something. Not sure if that's true though. 

After that I tried the site again, and it said that there was a picture roughly 13 meters from my position and that I should go and find it. No screenshot.  

 

Long story short: I gave GnR free advertising. 

 

 

Wow, how cool and clever is that!  ✌

Due to the snare drum sound and the cymbal placements.  Doesn't sound like Adler's playing although it is the correct beat.

It IS '86 Axl.  Why the facepalm?

Stop talking rubbish about Duff's significance in the band ya flogs.  You obviously have no fucking idea what you're talking about.  He is Guns N' fuckin Roses' bass player and always has been.   He is a meastro and his bass lines kick arse.

I doubt it. Having Izzy and Steven there would completely undermine the NITL tour and the semi-reunited lineup. Everybody would be asking why they weren't there previously, or why they wouldn't be there on the next American leg. It would be unwise to shoot oneself in the foot like that, and while GN'R's management isn't exactly a shining beacon of intelligence, i doubt they would be stupid enough to pay a larger amount of money to have Izzy and Steven for a night, only to damage the current standing of the band and the NITL tour.

I don't believe it would take anything away from the NITL tour, nor would it hinder the tour from continuing as it has been.

The show at the Apollo Theatre is a celebration of Appetite for Destruction's 30th anniversary.  Steven has made appearances in the US last year which was mind blowing and the tour continued without him.

I think Richard, Melissa, Dizzy and Frank would step aside to let this historical moment happen knowing that the tour is still there for them when the North American tour kicks off in October.

We all know, that even if Izzy wanted to take on the rhythm guitarist part again for the rest of the NITL tour, "no" could be said without any sorrow.

The toughest part about all this is actually getting Izzy there.

I'm even more curious what they all were thinking when they came up with the idea of drum solos, it's just so sensless and such an incredible bore...

It gives the rest of the band a chance to take a piss, rest whatever.  Same goes for when Slash, Duff, Dizzy do their thing.

Better than an intermission.

In saying that, very ordinary drum solo, but that's how it was in the day before drumming continued to evolve.

Yes, I remember gnronline.com, but I didn't start posting or commenting until the blue message board.

Then you had mygnr.com with a link to this forum, so then the message board ended and this forum started in 2002.

I can't believe it was so long ago, but I remember it clearly. I spent a lot of time on here.   Eric Romano ran the page.  Members posted about their excitement for Chinese Democracy and Axl's master plan.  Everyone tried to predict when they thought the album was coming out; the end of 2002, then disappointment 6 months later, then predictions of definitely in 2003, and so on. 

90% of members would get all excited about Buckethead and Robin Finke and bagging the crap out of Slash, saying that they were better than Slash blah, blah. Move on, Slash is gone, this band is way better.   I'd be reading all this and rolling my eyes behind the screen with frustration, so I'd then reply with my thoughts.  It'd be a real battle zone for me trying to get through to people that didn't understand and were blinded by that joke of a band.  I'd refuse and still do refuse to call that band Guns N' Roses. It was plain obvious just listening to the fake GN'R play the real GN'R tunes and how they sounded nothing more than a cover band.  These punters couldn't hear the difference, or at least they'd tell themselves it sounded better for whatever reason I do not know.   I'd have my huge rant about how nothing less than Axl, Slash and Duff could be called Guns N' Roses, then get slammed for not moving on and not accepting that there never will be reunion ever.  It was lonely on here for me, I was one of only a few that stuck by the original band and couldn't see potential of Axl's revolving musicians.

My dedication and hope for a reunion got me banned 2 or 3 times and was forced to open a new account.  I'd have to clear my cookies and visit the page as a guest just to read, but couldn't post.   The only way I got my original account back up and running was to pay for it with membership or this forum.  Then when they finally agreed to open it again and unban me, hundreds of all my posts that have me giving my point of view of the real and fake GN'R have been deleted.

Anyhow, that's how it was and time exposes the truth in the end.... Ha ha, I'm not really a cocky person in real life, just a silly Guns N' Roses fanatic that is now very happy to see those fake GN'R clowns gone and Duff and Slash back home where they should be.

I'm very excited for the GN'R future!

PS.  I'm hoping this post doesn't get deleted.  ?

Not a rant in my opinion.

That's the good Samaritan Axl. ?

Slash only ever seemed pissed at Izzy because he left via email, not because he left in general.

Can't say I'd ever heard of email in '92.  Where do you get your information?

Anybody know what the official attendance was?

Ha ha, check this out.   Just a little funny.  Axl comes along and scares the shit outta Slash.  I don't think Axl realised, but Slash has a laugh about it.

My partner actually video'd it.  That's me from 0:27 in the bottom right with the cap screaming "Slash, you bad ass motherfucker!". Then screaming "Axl fucking Rose". I missed Slash's fright until she showed me this.

Sure, as soon as my uploading videos to YouTube catch up, I'll post it ?

I cant remember him even speaking lolz 

I can't quote it exactly, but going from memory, it was something like:

Adelaide!  The band that needs no introduction.  From Hollywood... Guns N' Roses!

I have a video of a funny moment of Axl startling Slash, then them laughing about it.  Did anyone see that?

What's wrong with stalking anyway? ? Yes it will definitely land at Tullamarine, in the private terminal. Given they play in SYD Friday I'm guessing they'll come in on Sunday or monday.  For what it's worth I think they will stay at Crown Towers. 

Yeah, going by the other shows, I reckon they'll come in Sunday night

 

So if all mine are right my total score should be 1089....He he he.  I think?

• Band starts a show with something other than It's So Easy or Welcome to the Jungle (5/1) 25 points
• Izzy joins band on stage, plays song with Axl, Duff, Slash (8/1) 25 points
• Steven joins band on stage, plays song with Axl, Duff, Slash (2/1) 25 points
• Band plays a UYI song that was not played in 2016 (3/1) 25 points
• Band plays a new song (9/1) 25 points
• Band, including Axl, plays a Velvet Revolver song (9/1) 12 points
• GNR releases a music video for a new song (12/1) 13 points

I know some will say this is stalking, but I'm an over-obsessed fan and am wanting to know any information about what day the plane might come in and where?

Will it definitely land at Tullamarine?  How do we know when?   I'd just love to see it come in to land.

Anyone know where they're staying/visiting before going to Adelaide?
