The #notinthislifetime tag is also so fucking crazy are the honestly going to do not in this lifetime 6years later in casinos? Genius manager strikes again🙄 

The image and tags are by the instagram account "gnr_news2", which is not related to the band or management as far as I know. 

The image is also from Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, not Las Vegas.

Splitting hairs when it's atlantic city vs Las vegas🤣  Maybe it's a single or just 2 back to back dates, in which case that's passable.

No, but I mean, I don't think GN'R will do a residency in New Jersey. This is likely just a one-off show, don't you think?

Hopefully, but I wouldn't put anything past this clown show!

Nice for all the young kids who look up and see the sign and ask their parents what F'N' means.

Friggin / effin
Improvise. Adapt. Overcome. 
Wait, did it ever mean anything else?

But I do. And I have explained to them what swearing is and what the different swear words mean when they have asked. I would never shy away from helping my kids understand the world. And despite this, they don't swear themselves. 

I mean, kids aren't damaged from hearing or learning about swearing. There is no more power in swear words than what we attribute to them. 

 

good man

Slash and Myles Kennedy are the modern day Mick Jagger/Keith Richards. Steven Tyler/Joe Perry. If they have a new album out, you can damn well be sure I'll be first in fucking line.

Same, I'll be there.

It's a bit weird, isn't it? Their culture is full of swearing, yet they seem to have this belief kids are hurt if they ever hear one. Then stop using them, morons!

Yes, please continue to stereotype a country of 335 million people 👍🏻

Sure. Then you have this other stereotype where Americans are absolute prunes about nudity, yet so many aspects of their culture is based on appearance and sex.

But yeah, I get your point and of course such paradoxes kind of resolves themselves when you look into the variation of cultures within the US, including the dichotomy of conservatives vs liberals, the puritan south vs the coast, the cities vs the rural areas, major broadcast networks vs smaller independent channels, the religious nuts vs the not religious nuts, San Francisco vs, well, about everywhere else. And it's going to be interesting to see what these increasing divides that split the US society apart will result in. We already see how their politics is absolutely fucked with their two parties just taking off in different directions. Still, looking at the US from afar, without such a magnifying glass, it is hard to not be fascinated by how their culture is so full of swearing and yet how many social circumstances in the US where swearing would be frowned upon, and how the culture is so full of naked bodies yet how so many Americans seem to think the naked body is somehow shameful or dangerous.

All Brazilians are for clearing out the rainforest and raising more cattle. Their president is for it so all Brazilians obviously feel the exact same way.  :shrugs:

Yeah, I didn't argue that all Americans have a conflicted relationship with swearing or cursing, but pointed out that on the surface there definitely seems to be a thing with US' society (as compared to, say, Europe), and even explained how such apparent paradoxes may arise from the fact that USA is such a heterogenous society.

Myles has the charisma of a paperclip and the talent of a run of the mill by the numbers session musician. Seems like a nice guy but personally I can't stand him.

My heart will sink if they do a residency. What the fuck is wrong with them?

Yeah, they love violence but they're weird about sex. I dunno if this was an American's doing but I was listening to Common People by Pulp and realised 'screw' meaning to fuck - is censored. Unbelievable.

OMG....this type of attitude screws (oops sorry) kids up more than swear words...

 

I feel dissappointed, I read an article yesterday that suggested Guns will be extending the reunion tour and little likelihood of new music.  What happened to 'New Chapter' I wonder.
