NOVEMBER COMA

Just to throw another spanner in the works, I read that Duff said that they were all still talking all these years. Not often but through royalties & music they had no choice but to communicate. I understand Live Era' was through intermediaries but it was more like Duff was saying that we kind of always knew we would be back together (the 3 of us) at some point because we have always kept in contact. My point is that we know Izzy was part of that contact over the years as he has performed on both sides yet we didn't think Slash & Axl were communicating at all. Then again, Slash did say a couple of years ago that the last time he spoke with Axl was 1996 so I'm confused. 

Final point, we have the 3 back & Izzy clearly want's a bigger cut which he may be entitled to depending but having said that he did not really go through  the UYI tour & I think that is where they are coming from. This feels like UYI Tour take 2. 

7 of us going. 5 in P1, 2 in P2.

Guys, we are witnessing one of the most unexpected rekindled relationships in music history with Axl & Slash. This proves anything can happen & it takes a bit more than just money, its not like any of them were struggling. I always thought Duff & Axl were a chance before 2010 hotel meet but none of us thought Slash surely. So with that said.....:

Stage 1: New guns with Izzy - 2006 

Stage 2: New guns with Duff - 2010

Stage 3: Axl, Slash, Duff 2015

Stage 4: Axl, Slash, Duff - Adler Guest 2016

Stage 5: Axl, Slash, Duff - Adler & Izzy guest

Have faith, we will never have guns of 85-90, 5 guys won't go around doing a nightclub tour but we will get all 5 back at some point albeit with Dizzy, Frank & Melissa.

Yep, I'm in pit 2

I've got tix to both Pit 1 & 2 with a group, I'm hoping we can move between them but doubtful. 

Sorry, he got paid?

Pretty funny that he hung around for so long thinking that he was actually in the band. 

Hi Guys, anyone going WTTJ VIP Pit MCG?

Can't wait. Also any GnR parties going on in Melb?

I think the openers could very well be Wolfmother and Rose Tattoo.

What about.....

All day MCG Festival: Rose Tattoo, Wolfmother, Silverchair Then:

GnR set & encore with Aussie special guests: Anderson on Nice Boys, Stockdale on By The Sword & Angus Young on Whole Lotta Rosie/Riff Raff 

OMG

Not sure what Silverchair could do though.....

Looks like my info was incorrect on this if you look at Ticketek descriptions for seats, my apologies, I thought the info was good.

@Harlum Shake  appears to be correct with pit then seating behind it.

Are we thinking that Diamond Floor is Pit??

Just checked out the Japan tour page, can't speak japanese but noticed their VIP are 30,000 yen which is $390AUD. not sure if just a pit ticket though.

In the US it has been $1750 so who knows.

Ticketek just posted $357.00 for GA Diamond Standing. Nightrain will be more I think.

What recording process? whatever he recorded is with Axl, now no more recording for him in GNR. He is out of the band. 

Agree, he's working for Sheridan selling towels.

Anything Goes?

Not played since '87, was also a Hollywood Rose song.

Shadow Of Your Love is another not played since 87'.

What I hope is if Izzy returns for a show or two then play Dust n' Bones (not since 92')

or current line-up add in Breakdown, Bad Obsession & Hair Of The Dog

OK So TWAT & Yesterdays added today.

Good chance now for either Madagascar or Catcher.

Ding dong Mickey's Dead woohoo!!

Thank you my forum friends. Can't believe I missed this. Gnr will never recover or be the same without him.

We might be saved if Melissa ever gets a towel solo.

Yeah I think it's more bitterness over the change in direction of the Axl's band. It's a sign that for want of a better word the industrial stuff is left behind. Look at the band, it's a hard rock band. 

Pitman was very much at the heart of the more progressive CD songs. But ITW wasn't a hit. People like the dynamics of Madagascar but it's the keyboard sound they don't. 

So the writing was on the wall. 

He might have wanted to stay but really he doesn't fit. And he's pretty flamboyant with the towels. 

It's really over to Slash and Duff now. There's nothing stopping them now they can record a new towel free record. 

 

Can someone please post a 'towel' clip incident. I missed the in joke & feel at a loss without it.

Anyone know where I can get a "Where's Pittman?" shirt?

I'm surprised they don't have them at Kmart or Target. I have looked everywhere but I think you can get a 'Where's Buckethead' meal deal from KFC

'The Lasagna Fiasco'

Hahhaa!! 'The Cannelloni Affair'  

Democracy was a collaboration over 13 Years with multiple members so it is a high chance a new album will include songs reworked up to 20 years old or more.

Don't Care just give me some new music.

Since this reunion occurred and remembering all the other GnR eras, I seem to notice that not all band members share equal mutual relationships. I know that Axl, Slash and Duff feel wird and its an unknown road ahead so far but amidst all those things their relationship and stage chemistry and presence is the most distinguished so far. I have even seen that Slash had acknowledged Frank bu hugging him in Vegas. (If you recall even Ashba was 'best friends' with Tommy...). The point being in all eras there was some kind of mutual connection, but in this new one I cannot grasp the different worlds..what stands out is Slash relationship with Dizzy... I don't recall him befriending him even during UYI (you could see Gilby and Dizzy)..was it because he was against having a keyboard player in the band or something else.. I don't know.. why is that? Not all connections are active.. Like Dizzy and Frank or Dizzy and Fortus.. Even Slash and Fortus seem to be having more connections since reunion on stage and Slash and Frank on that Instagram pic.. 

Any thoughts?

*Feel free to move this topic to wherever it belongs...

Dizzy & DJ definitely had a good relationship especially when drinking Jager. Axl is good with all & definitely has been good with Duff since 2010 & now very close again with Slash you would expect. The rest are musicians & agree, I don't see how Slash can really coordinate with Dizzy when he is back left on stage. It is all a working relationship with the exception of Axl, Duff & Slash IMO.
