Hollywood Gunner

given up on the band? no. given up on new music ? yes.

if new music happens then great, but im not expecting it... and if it does happen im not expecting anything spectacular... at this point i see the band more or less like led zep or pink floyd, except theres a small chance i may get to see them live a few more times 

theres nothing more cringeworthy than the thought of a socially distanced moshpit... if you cant do it right, dont do it at all

white christmas but the whole song is about cocaine

anyone looking to score a ps5 in canada check out this discord

 https://discord.gg/9jUd5Y6y

 will prob help

not really into rpgs but my buddy is getting it and we gameshare so... ill probably give it a try but im waiting for the ps5 version as it only releases for next gen in a few months i beleive... dont wanna ruin the experience by playing the ps4 version first lol

assassins creed valhalla on ps5... not my kinda game but needed something "next gen"... already getting a bit bored of it tbh

just picked up a switch on black friday... i got a ps5 with valhalla on nov. 12th and was frustrated by the lack of games so i went out and got the switch with mario kart deluxe, super marios bros u deluxe, mario odyssey and breath of the wild lol should hold me over until theres a few decent games for ps5... hopefully

Honestly, people sort of stereotype the wildlife to be a bigger threat than it really is. Yeah, there’s a lot of wildlife that’s dangerous. But you just don’t come across it often unless you’re not being mindful of your surroundings. I always go on a few nature-centric trips every time I go to Australia, and I’ve never come across any dangerous wildlife. 
 

As for the crowds, they’re actually surprisingly tame. The first gig I went to in Australia was Ghost in a small club in Brisbane, that was intense. I ended up with two cracked ribs it was so rowdy. But it wasn’t passionate, it was just violent. The rest of the gigs I’ve been to in Australia have been super tame. A few days after cracking my ribs I waltzed right up to the second row for Slayer, even with cracked ribs I was totally fine.

yeah ive heard about the violence at small shows but im always up for a good mosh pit.. what got me thinking those fuckers were nutts though was when i saw people drinking motor oil for motorhead tickets lol

"All new show". 

Literally no other band ever says this when promoting things. It's such an odd thing to say.....and the "new look, new design but with all their classic hits" line just highlights than it really has no intention of being very different at all. 

 

all new pyro and video show.. same set list lol

There are literally hundreds of reasons to go to Australia. If these gigs happen, and you do go, make a proper holiday out of it. Get outside the cities, see some of the stunning nature, enjoy the country. It’s really an incredible place. 

so ive heard... i have a few friends from high school that moved there actually and i love nature but im not a big fan of creepy crawly things ive never seen before lol i mean even the friggin crocodile hunter got got down there lol but yeah its been put on my bucket list now... heard these fuckers down there can really rock out too 🤘

Well there is not much difference between being eaten by a crocodile and listening to Axl singing YCBM in 2021 I think 

Both things hurt 

would still rather be punched in the nutts by a kangaroo than watch ashba do the hogan ears one more time tho lol

Finally the reunion is complete, i didnt see that one coming.
But it's logical they returned izzy and steven, how else are they gonna fill stadiums???

wishful thinking but they just wished fortus happy bday.. not farewell lol

ive never felt compelled to go to Australia until now... the withdrawal im having from not attending live shows far outweighs any fear i may have of being eaten by wildlife lol

oh for fuck's sake half of lynyrd skynyrd dies in a fucking plane crash and the band still manages to release music... if anything covid19 should accelerate new music since they cant rely on the same fucking redundant shows to make money now

What if Slipknot didn't had a dude with a Clown mask? 

 

they wouldnt exist but GNR would definitely exist without the clown lol

what if the 2000's lineup didnt have a dude with a reverse mullet that looks like a dead cat or a clown with a fucking bucket of chicken on his head?

best : ain't it fun

worst : i feel good

both by a fuckin landslide 

no. they should actually make a new song called COVID19 tho 🤘

get izzy back and its a done deal

I think the 'just one new song' is needed by people as a sign that things are at least moving forwards

i hear ya... thats how i felt in 2017 and 2018 tho... i guess some people are more patient than others

No, this would be going according to what Slash said in the fall of 2019 (i.e. no new major tour without new music). 

i think you and most people that frequent this forum know never to trust what anyone in or around the band says

imo we're way beyond the "one new song live is ok" point... that woulda been ok 2 years ago. i think it just goes to show that gnr fans have been brainwashed into accepting mediocrity. 

im still a huge gnr fan so im not blasting anyone here, but i wouldnt be any more excited to go see a show this summer knowing theres one new song in the set, than i would be for the same old set list we've all grown used to. 

at this point, i really think its new album or bust... but i also said that about the "last tour"

cant stand vicky hamilton and here she is again stating the obvious. she just annoys the fuck outta me... i mean shes right but they could have interviewed 9 outta 10 random people from this forum that woulda said the same thing.

im definitely not ruling out at least one izzy track on the next album. just because he couldnt be bothered with endless touring for probably the same amount they paid frank, doesnt mean he wont write some awesome shit that gains traction and gets him back in the lineup where he belongs 🤘

If just ok if with just one new song at this point, honestly. Just SOMETHING to firmly distinguish this tour from the NITL tour.

one new song woulda been ok in 2018. i personally think we're way beyond that point now

As for me, I just can't justify the value of their ticket prices against the show they put on. If new material was released, I'd go in a heartbeat. 

for me its not so much the price, its the 6 hour drive... i did it to see axl and slash back together for the first time in forever but right now, even a few new songs wouldnt justify the drive for me, especially since i know 100% that there will be another NA leg within another 12 months and theyll hit my city on that go around
