Freddie Mercury's Ghost Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Actually, Ron didn't want to tour at all. He said he had to because they couldn't get someone else to do it.That is fucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
answerisyes Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 At the same time I don't think people realise that as much as Ron is in pain and everything, he does have a funky sense of humour and maybe the new thread title is a bit dramatic. I think he'll be fine. He's just acting strange because of the drugs most likely. Once the tour is over he'll get some rest and be good as new (I hope).

bigcountry Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Yes this needs to be taken seriously. Bumblefoot is all about the fans but if you are sick or hurting there comes a time when everything should be dropped and take care of yourself, believe me I know!!!I am sure he feels the weight of the world is on his shoulders, 1st US tour in 5 years, seems everyone in the band is having a blast and the fans that come out are also have a great time. All this pressure then add the pain in to it and nothing good can become of it.Suicide is thought I deal with daily and a few years ago it was very serious and my family stepped in and got me help but they have no idea how close I was and how many different times.Ron get some help if you need it or just say enough is enough and bail on the tour, who gives a FUCK what anyone on this forum or even the band says. The main thing is to get better and to do that you have to cut yourself some slack and let everything else sort it's self out and just take care of yourself that is what matters.s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is serious.I think it's wrong for him to be posting stuff like this on Facebook. He should just hand in his resignation to Axl if he's not up for it.

bumblecool Posted November 20, 2011 Author Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) Here is some audio of Ron taking painkillers before the Kansas City concert.This video is unlisted for a reason. I don't want some site picking it up and spinning it into something. If I see this linked anywhere I'll delete it.it's poc talking? or you? :( Edited November 20, 2011 by bumblecool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ben9785 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) I sent a message to him on Facebook but it probably doesn't mean much.Ron really needs to think of long term priorities. It might have just been one bad night but the pain he's in, and the medication he has to stuck down which probably doesn't help his state of mind, could catch up to him at any time and God forbid make things worse. He's the new life of GNR with his guitar work and his attitude to the fans but he really needs to think about himself. No doubt it's a good stable career choice but he's got so much more he can do creatively outside of GNR and also he just needs to address his physical health properly and think about the future.Hope he will be ok.

Guest gunns5 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I hope Ron is ok and can get better and can make a full recovery or as close to it as possible.I hope if the decision comes down to it that he chooses to put his health first and foremost instead of continuing on at the risk of furthering more possible pain and injury, it's not worth it, his health should be fcking priority.God bless the bumble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gagarin Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) Poc's a young musician, not a doctor. There's no point to that video anyway.He's on pain killers. We already know that. Edited November 20, 2011 by Gagarin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsguy Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) Is the video a good idea? Probably not, however Ron taking 3 advil before a show is not that bad. It is only 3, relax.It takes the edge slightly off the pain, does not do much really/I was perscribed 1800mg a day at my worst, it is only Advil, thank Christ!What concerns us is the fact that mentally he seems unstable, he is reaching for help to who? We don't know but I hope he finds it Edited November 20, 2011 by gunsguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gunns5 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) The problem is that video could be taken out of context and be used by some publications and be reported in a negative light .

answerisyes Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Yeah, the video isn't ment to be some kind of top secret exploitative thing. It was just to show he's on painkillers which we already knew. The only reason it's unlisted is because I don't want to see blabbermouth or something using it and spinning it into something it's not.I'm going to delete it now anyways for those reasons after further thought, but I still disagree that it's private. It was streamed publicially dude. And it's nothing we don't already know or that he doesn't tweet about daily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said he had to because they couldn't get someone else to do it.That woman talking to Ron in that audio clip is an annoying fucking idiot. Has no idea what she is talking about. She was spouting a bunch of incorrect nonsense about pain medicine. If I was Ron at that moment, I woulda told that bitch "yeah, I know they might be bad for my liver, but they are the only thing alleviating my fucking pain." I almost laughed when she insinuated that pain medicine is unecessary and doesnt work and that your mind convinces you it works. Sorry honey, narcotic opiod analgesics work quite well on their own. No placebo effect needed LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustaine Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) All we can really do is wish him well. It sucks that he's in pain all the time.Having said that... The people close to him, his family, friends and band mates are the ones who ultimately will have to judge what his mental state is like and help him. Hopefully Axl and the rest of the guys would recognize if something big was going on and make a decision based on that. It's obvious that Ron is in pain though and that by itself should not be taken lightly, being reliant on drugs is a shitty thing. But I have to add that we really don't know what is going on for sure and we're really in no position to judge his state of mind.
