Just helping out

 

I'll go through the registrations. We've both been busy recently and there's a backlog.

It seems like UMG has reversed their stance on videos, they still flag them for copyright but instead of taking them down they're monetizing them (like they should've been doing all along).

@FRANSAD could probably provide some more info.

Will the forum ease the policy on posting youtube videos?

That's up to @downzy. I expect we would want to monitor the situation for a while or get more info before any decision was taken. Positive news though.

I get busy with work for a while and now we're arguing over whether Duff is actually tall. 

Never change Mygnr! 

This appeared on my youtube feed. Based on the thumbnail and title I thought it was going to be a hatchet job but it's actually not a bad cliff notes version of the life and times of Axl Rose. A bit inaccurate in places but surprisingly upbeat.

I'm not sure who the mods want starting tour date threads so I'll put this here, but it looks like they are playing Saitama Super Arena on the 5th and 6th of November. No other cities in Japan as yet.

 

Thanks. I'll add them to the tour dates section shortly.

 About fuckin time!!!!  It's a dream come true 

Who is his replacement? 

He's not gone yet. He's made a 'resignation' speech where he didn't actually resign and has come up with more waffle and flannel as to why he needs to stay until the Autumn. I think he's still thinking he can wriggle out of this.

We're having quite the implosion on this side of the pond. A bit embarrassing really.  

I'm glad a few people still had a great time regardless of issues.

Axl sleeping at the venue conjures up images of him snoozing in a camp bed and sleeping bag.

 

His dressing rooms have had a bed in them before, I'm sure I've read that somewhere. Seeing as they took over the stadium for 2 days I think that's the most likely option. Maybe his dressing room full of his own stuff feels more homely and comforting than a hotel room?

Plus what others said about it feeling mentally less taxing to stay put than go back and forth through London traffic.

To be honest this is the point in the road Axl needs to sit down with Slash and Duff and say it’s time to change the set. Axl can’t do the set he used to anymore, those days are over. At 60, you gotta take care of yourself better. I think it makes me most sad that he’s having anxiety attacks over it. Feels like this’ll probably be one of the last Guns tours.

Hopefully not. Maybe the last mega stadium tour for a while. That wouldn't be the worst thing, a lot of fans would like the chance to see them in a smaller setting with a different type of set. It would make less money probably, how much that factors in I don't know?

wow ok  - i had no idea..

 

anyway search for SL138 on youtube and my 4K and 8K clips should come up

That's okay. The thread in Support had dropped down so it's not obvious for anyone new. We ran into some serious issues a few years back. It isn't the choice of any staff or the forum owner to impose this rule, we'd rather not but unfortunately it's the situation we're in.

Bumping for newcomers

@SL138

I'm very sorry but we can't link to unofficial youtube videos here anymore due to copyright issues.

A reminder for everyone else too. No youtube links unless from an official channel.

A tour just wouldn't feel right without it though!

The jack the ripper design is one of the best so far

I was mostly thinking about night 2 with the palace guard. I wasn't keen on that but all the JTR design was sold out so had to make do. Think I still like these better though.

I like these playing card designs. Better than the 2017 London designs.
