Strange Broue Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Fernando,it'd be awesome if at each gig ,GNR had some type of online fan voting for people to pick from some lesser known/played songs and the winning song is played at that show. The Rolling Stones did something similar this tour and I believe Metallica does as well. Maybe there could even be a write-in vote for us remaining nerds who have been waiting 25 years to hear Coma.This is a good idea, but you have to remind me when we tour again.This is something that many of us would LOVE! Songs like Coma, Yesterdays, Locomotive etc, would get a huge amount of votes from the fan base.I would vote Locomotive on a hourly basis if i ever get the chance! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towelie Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 One thing I thought was cool was that big collectors box that was released when CD came out with the T-shirt, bandana and patch.... It'd be cool to have something like that again if and when a new album comes. I'm a sucker for good packaging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty cool and I'm sure there is footage online.Would Axl ever consider doing this again as part of a gig. Maybe 5 songs acoustic/stripped back style and then back into the regular type of gig.EDIT: Here's a clip of them doing Dead Flowers Edited August 4, 2015 by Facekicker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtle Signs Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Has Axl recorded any new vocals in the past 5 years?Seems like a fair question that isn't asking for release dates or song titles. Yet it might get lost in the shuffle and not answered. Though you can't blame him as everything Fernando says will probably get picked up by Blabbermouth.net,dissected,analyzed and then shredded by posters on there.

Rustycage Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 If big news is expected in a few months, what is with bumblefoot and dj? Why split right before theres something on the horizon? It leaves the fans to speculate that it is just another greatest hits tour.Is there currently anything in motion to find replacements for bbf and dj? If so, any clues on the prospects?"Can't say" "no" " i dont know" .... Anything that could give fans something to gnaw on for a while? These are the constant thoughts in the minds of the fans, afterall. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magisme Posted August 4, 2015 Author Share Posted August 4, 2015 Is it just me, or has (magisme) vanished? #Starstruck possibly? I know I am a big deal and all. I just don't understand, all of the pointless posts... when I heed the call, he heeds the closet.Oh man, he's likely posting a book and actually expects me to read it all. I hope someone will send me cliffs notes.Ooooooooohhhhh. Sooooo many jokes about being busy, having things to do for work.... Actually, as many know, I'm a teacher on summer vacation, so I wasn't working, but sometimes I do life things-- I just try not to let it get in the way of my posting, which we all know is my true meal ticket.Anyway, I'm in the middle of reading the thread. I want to see what everyone has said before I jump back in. How many of you dicks have bothered to read your fellow forum members' posts? Well, I'm reading every single one. That's why I'm better than you. magisme, better than everyone, man of the people.Seriously, guys, I'm on page 19. How much more? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfierose Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Fernando, this has consistently been one of my top questions for years; Are we ever likely to get the autobiography Axl once mentioned? I would love to read his official version of years gone by (do let him finish the album first of course!) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Congrats on your forthcoming daughter, Fernando. I met my girlfriend at the Bethlehem, PA show last year in May, so I hold that show dear to me for similar reasoning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axljungle Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Hi Fernando, Thanks for being here, is nice see you in the forum.First, sorry for my english, is not my native language, and o portugues nao é uma lingua que eu domine.I have a question. It's posible that we will hear anything more of the song called Checkmate-Jackie Chan? I love this mistery song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could have ended it with, "so I guess he's not all bad" or something. magismes have feelings too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subtle Signs Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 (edited) Fernando,I got in big trouble in 1992 as a young teenager,when I faked being sick so I would be sent home from sleep away camp to attend the GNR /METALLICA show at Rich Stadium in Buffalo,NY. If you'll send me a few of the Team Brazil guitar picks,it might help to ease the burden I've been carrying for 23 years over lying to my camp counselors and my fellow campers.

Pele Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 It's obvious what he means by racism, the constant reference to them by their nationality, all that stuff taking the mickey out of that weird South American tranny that held up that funny banner a whiles back, mimicking her misspelled/misphrased stuff and other assorted shit of that nature, I just find it a bit fuckin' hilairious being as how, as previously stated, the bloke who pays his wages wrote One in a Million. I guess a mans sense of dignity and racial pride comes with a price tag.I think he is referring specifically to when people use names like "Brazilian nanny" or "Brazilian housemaid" to refer to Beta, posting pics of Consuela etc.It's obvious what he means by racism, the constant reference to them by their nationality, all that stuff taking the mickey out of that weird South American tranny that held up that funny banner a whiles back, mimicking her misspelled/misphrased stuff and other assorted shit of that nature, I just find it a bit fuckin' hilairious being as how, as previously stated, the bloke who pays his wages wrote One in a Million.

Route66 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 (edited) Hi Fernando, can you tell us if ALL the original members of GNR are communicating these days?
