  1. It has just started ! Axl and the band came on - finished off Paradise City and left !

    Okay so I'm full of shit - hope anyone going has a great time ! I would be horrified and dissapointed big time if I had GnR tickets for an upcoming show and it didn't happen for whatever reason. Happened twice to me in the last few years with Velvet Revolver - fuckin' drug-fucked wanker SW !

    Everyone except Dave was in rehab and if I remember correctly some dates were also cancelled cause of Matt Sorum. So let's be fair here, it's not just Scott's fault.

    Dude, isn't it always the singer's fault :)

  2. fuck just found out about that exclusion zone for gnr so they can't play Melbourne or Brisbane, sux but thats contracts I suppose.

    Anyways, I posted in the aussie rollcall thread here

    cheers

    Fuckin' Oath that sucks. Bullshit contracts! - fuck 'em Axl, get creative and play Brisbane and Melbourne under a different name. Hhhmmm , what name could they use??? " Velvet Rifle " :)

    "GnR mixed by Dj ASH"

    fuck em, play at the top floor of the Q1 and get some meter maids to do vodka shots off each of their stomachs whilst Pitman provides some smooth synth to get things underway

    While Danii and Kylie Minogue jelly-wrestle and Jennifer Hawkins pole-dances! Ha ha , sounds good mate.

  5. Hey I've got nothing against Townsville - I've actually never been there. I recently went to Cairns for a work conference and that and Port Douglas were really nice. I just am a bit unsure whether Guns could attract a big crowd there ? I hope they do and I'm sure the Guns boys will enjoy the Great Barrier Reef :)

    I am allready going to fly to Sydney to see them and will look at flying to Adelaide and Townsville too. I am seeing Metallica in Brisbane and flying to Melbourne to see them too, so I'm gonna have to sell my kidney on organ-bay or something to raise the cash !

    I heard on triple m radio this afternoon while driving my car that GnR have confirmed their Aussie dates and that Brisbane and Melbourne have missed out :( Strange decision as they could easily sell out a few shows in each of these major cities. Lets hope this is untrue and more shows are announced.

  6. Here are links for those who missed the live show ( same file multiple links choose one ) about 45 min long, MP3, 128 approx 40MB:

    If ya want another format just let me know

    Thanks Gunsguy for the good work :) I swear dude, GnR should put you on their payroll as a publicist... Shit they could do with a good one.

  7. It's easy to forget sometimes, when you are caught in an uphill struggle, but today I came across this again:

    Through all the good and bad... that's why I am a fan of Axl Rose, and always will be, no matter what. On stage he has always been, and will always be, the very best.

    Thanks for this. I have never seen that footage before and I wholeheartedly agree with you. That Voice is beautiful...

    I would give my middle testicle to get a studio-recorded version of Axl doing that song :)

  8. Awesome - Got my tickets ! I begged my wife to get on the internet this morning while I was at work. Anyway, she did well and now I don't have to call a divorce lawyer.

    I just got the GA tickets, hopefully with this I can get up close to the stage.

    When I saw them way back in 1993 at Eastern Creek raceway in Sydney, my mates and I just wandered down to have a look at the front of the stage early in the day. We walked through these gates of a fenced off area and security slapped bands on our wrists. Without knowing what we were doing we ended up in the small area at the front of the stage. Got to the venue early in Brisbane 07' too, so thats the key to getting up close to the stage if thats what you want.

  9. Watching that Rockquiz episode I think he is half taking the piss with that comment. Besides that's what half the show is really about - just cracking jokes.

    Yeah I saw the show on tv last night, and I knid of thought he was just being sarcastic and trying to be funny. Unfortunately though, in the world of Axl-haters that sort of comment really doesnt need to be said. Some people may not get the joke and think yep, that bloody Axl Rose ! It just sort of perpetuates people's usually misguided ignorant opinions of him :(

  10. Anyone got any info about whether or not they will play other cities? I will try my best to get a ticket tomorow while at work. I just hope it is not as hard as the Metallica tickets were to get, that was just ridiculous and I had a few hardcore Metallica-fan friends who missed out... Just bullshit.

    Anyway, I made the 14 hour bus trip from Brisbane to Sydney in january 1993 to see Guns at Eastern Creek Raceway in Sydney, and it was awesome. Front row up against the stage with a crowd of about 50 000 people. So I will do my best to attend this one too :)

  11. Even if its one show (which i doubt it will be) im gonna try my darnest to get a ticket... so long as some douchebag doesnt decide to throw a cup of water at Axl like the last concert i went to (Brisbane '07)... Fuckhead almost ruined it for us all

    That was during WTTJ right ? Julia Gillard's first parliamentary move as pm of Australia should be to reintroduce the death penalty for any fuckwit that throws anything at Axl or the GnR boys... It never ceases to amaze me the dickheads that do that sort of thing - Pay $150 to try to injure someone and prematurely stop a show that 10 000 people have paid to see. :thumbsdown:

  12. im going to try and make it to as many shows in Aus as possible if they do tour this year. Money is an issue for me but ill have to wheel and deal it to make it work.

    fuck if gnr never come here again and i had a chance to see them x amount of times and I didnt, then I would be very pissed

    My thoughts exactly dude ! I would remove my own kidney and sell it on the black market if I had to raise the money... hopefully it doesn't come to that :)

  13. Hey ThinkAboutYou ! Hows it going mate? And a big G'day to all the Aussies here :)

    I haven't seen anything in The Courier Mail here in Brisbane about GnR shows. Fingers crossed they do a full scale tour like 2007. They were awesome, and I'm sure would be even better this time.

    I was wondering earlier this year how the global financial crisis was affecting their touring. Just how the Aussie dollar soared to get up there about equal with the US dollar and if that would be good or bad from GnR's perspective to come to Australia ??? Anyway, the aussie dollar has come back down so who knows...

    If they only come to do one show in Sydney well I will just have to be there, I mean I should be able to afford it , but even if I couldnt I would walk from Brisbane to Sydney to be there :) If money is tight then start saving now, because it could be a while before they come to Australia again.
