Richard Fortus : is he pulling a Robert Finch ?

I wish that Guns N´ Roses would release a new album and Axl to get out all that there´s in the vaults and release it in a fine box set.

Fuck that would be a cool thing to do!

Especially if they followed that up by touring the U.S. with Clutch and Living Colour. That'd be my dream tour.

Living Color is still active? Vernon Reid is a sloppy guitarist imo.

I suspect Thin Lizzy will have to play without 4Tus or reschedule for a later date during another round of "down time"

No, they'll just play with Vivian Campbell.

I'll break it down

VC is playing with with Def Leppard until Sept,24/2011, at which point the tour will end.

RF is playing with Thin Lizzy until Aug,12/2011

VC will commence playing with Thin Lizzy on Oct,12/2011

RF will begin the GNR tour on Oct,2/2011

Sorry to burst your bubble, but Def Leppard has more tour dates than what you listed:

http://www.defleppard.com/tours/mirror-ball-tour-2011

They are touring through Nov. 7th.

So, either Richard won't be with GN'R for the tour, maybe forever, or someone else will be touring with Thin Lizzy.

If Richard is out of GN’R, even provisionally, then a statement should be made to that effect (by GN’R). Alternatively if Thin Lizzy are marketing their tour as including players they don’t know for certain are going to be involved, that is unprofessional on their part. Another possibility is that Richard is still pondering his options before coming to a decision (thus effectively tying the hands of both respective parties).

Richard needs to be straight with GN’R considering they’re headlining Rock in Rio and need to act accordingly.

Hes probably gunna see out his obligation with Thin Lizzy as he should, its not like GNR wouldn't be able to play without him, and no that isn't supposed to be a slam against Richard, its just the truth. This band has more than enough guitar players to put on a good show, this really isn't a big deal... and hardly indicates that he's "leaving" the band. But hey its something to talk about right?

Well, I wish he'd update us.

Any other band would.

I mean, if I were a fan of a given band, I'd like to know who would show up before I'd buy a ticket.

I know most people go to a GnR show to see Axl mainly, but still...

Would be good for sure, either the band or Fortus could say something. I don't believe he is leaving at all but confirmation would be awesome

It's been there forever, yes.

Yea, it has, and he often updates his site. He could easily have removed it. But he hasn't.

Good find :thumbsup:

Thanks GunsGuy. I'm quite worried. I will be extremely disappointed if Richard is no longer in the band. He's such an amazing artist and definitely become a favorite of mine within Guns.

I understand there are many people worried, it is why I decided to try to clear this up if I could, normally I don't bother them with rumours. The trouble is here the Thin Lizzy dates, the silence etc.

I have reached out to a few to see if there is any answer, it may be a few days before I hear back? Not sure.

I personally do not believe he has or is going to leave but that is my opinion and aint worth shit if its wrong :thumbsup:

I hope that Richard seeks to reconcile the two bands.

to leave Guns is madness.
