Goodbye Ron (???)


Recommended Posts

The band has been dead for a while. This is just one more thing that makes it difficult to stay in denial about that.

A new release in 2014/2015 followed by another tour will prove otherwise.

Guess we'll have to wait and see. Sometimes it sucks being a GN'R fan, like right now.

I'd welcome being wrong on this one, man. Don't think I am though.

Goodbye Ronald Jay
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the jungle
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name

chorus:

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a bottle of hot sauce
Never knowing whose ring you burned
When the pain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your fire burned out long before
Your legend ever did

Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Team Brazil created a monster
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you cried
Oh the forums still hounded you
All the posters had to say
Was that Ron was only after pay

(repeat chorus)

Goodbye Ronald Jay
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
Goodbye Ronald Jay
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something more than sexual
More than just our Stephanie Seymour

OHIt's how you're thinking
Like Ron's been right
He's been living a trade-off
Believing his version
Lived in enslavery and he drained out his soul
What can he do when there's so many liars
That crawled through his veins
Like millions of spiders
That seek out their victims
And ruin THE wiser
His out
Gotcha
OH MY RON!

Last time a guitarist left we got an album, although we didn't know it at the time that he had left.

But this is probably good for Ron if it's true. Bad for GN'R in almost every single way.

Put Fortus at lead guitar and add Duff as rythm.

Have Duff kick Ashba's "bitchy little ass".Then bring back Bucket in place of Darren Jay.

This place can be worse than the tabloids for speculation! the "facts" we're working with 1) he spoke to a guy and said he was gone (note not confirmed publicly by him or anyone else) 2) he changed some details on his social media... come on!

As long as the band is actually out there playing music, that band isn't dead in any logical meaning of the word. If this hiatus turns out to be permanent, then the band is dead. But we don't know that yet, and saying that the band has been dead for a while now, when they have been touring constantly, suggest the person who says it thinks thatg a band needs to release music to be "alive".

like a few of already stated... no matter if you "like" Ron or not

its bad news if you are a supporter and want to see things move forward...which they never do

maybe in a couple years we will get CD2.... but Ron didn't help write those songs anyway... so what's the difference

and if you still go to GNR shows in 2014, like I do.. you go to see and hear Axl Rose sing...it doesn't matter who is on stage with him anymore

All I've ever wanted from this band was to hear the rest if the CD sessions, not "new" tracks with Ashba and Ron. Axl plus Bucket plus Finck is a killer band.

I don't think Ron leaving is a bad thing necessarily. Honestly just moves closer to a reunion.

Apart from the stormtrooper helmet escapade I can't think of any..

Dude had a little bit of fun on stage for a few min. Weird thing to drama queen about.

Escapade; an act or incident involving excitement, daring, or adventure.

Yes he did screw up during it, which I thought was hilarious and he has rarely, if ever, messed anything up. Hence the mention alongside fuck ups.
