  1. Got to love a rockstar slapfight. We don't get enough of them these days. Hilarious that at the root of this it's a slapfight over playing Rihanna songs. This can only be improved on by Slash having his say then finally Axl wading in with a caps lock rant. *keeps fingers crossed*
  2. I just think he's a bit of a dick generally speaking. Good drummer though and his contribution to GNR still stands.
  3. Oh dear Gordon. I think this has met the criteria for the badge.
  4. I know we only got one vote but here's my top 3. 1. Pitman 2. Ashba 3. Sorum
  5. Get you now, sorry. Yeah it is a bit of a concern for both band and fans in Greece. Hopefully all will be well.
  6. Any thoughts on whether the heatwave will affect this gig? According to The Guardian its dipped a bit now but expected to rise again from Thursday. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/jul/15/acropolis-greece-closed-heatwave-48c
  7. Yes. That was the biggest wow factor really. Something that was well shot and in HD rather than trying to follow crap quality streams from mobile phones.
  8. I think we were pleased not because the performance was better than all other shows of the tour, it was because they have a long history of not delivering well on high profile, filmed events.
  9. Overall no England doesn't. There are still exceptions here and there. If I visit a care home as part of my job I'm still expected to test beforehand. I don't think it's legally enforceable now but in that specific scenario the expectation is still there and if I tested positive, even without any symptoms, I'd rearrange. Of course there may be no rules for Glastonbury and she might be as you describe. I don't really know!
  10. It might be Glastonbury rules. Maybe they make all artists and crew test - a lot of money is at stake if the talent get ill.
  11. That's interesting thanks. Ties in with the articles I posted earlier about the industry as a whole trying to improve their carbon footprint/climate ethics etc. Not using pyro in most shows is probably an easy win on that score. People might slightly miss it but not by much.
  12. Welcome to the forum. my fave band is Bon-Jovi Brave to admit this here.
  13. I thought Richard was showing the most relaxed enthusiasm bar Axl. Guess we all perceive things differently.
  14. I commented briefly on this last night. He only seemed to perk up when Dave appeared. Maybe that was just relief they'd reached the end of the set without major problems. The other band members seeming subdued might just be the result of a high stress moment.
  15. Maybe they are trying to be more climate conscious? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-50562183 https://www.theguardian.com/music/2021/apr/27/music-industry-confronts-climate-crisis-gigs-resume
  16. You see that's why it's just a nice fantasy. I can't do prolonged periods of discomfort in mass crowds.
  17. I was suffering a bit from FOMO last night and wondering if I should have tried to get tickets (even though I don't like festivals at my age!) I'd have never stood all day in the heat to get a spot at the front though so on balance watching on UHD 4K was probably better than being at the back of a field.
  18. The fitted black tee looked great. He should have gone with that from the start.
  19. The British mums on mumsnet said the checked purple shirt made him look like a school dinner lady.
  20. You have to sign up to be a club member for unlimited reactions. One time payment of $15 https://www.mygnrforum.com/store/?/store/= This isn't a profit thing. It just goes towards the hosting costs.
