Carne_asaDA Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 I was at the La Vista (Omaha) show on 7/19/24....the night of her death. He dedicated "Metal Chestnut" to her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it was to anyone in particular. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlett Rae said in her post paying tribute to Lucy Bleu that she "told her not to do it" . If Lucy was already talking to her sister about wanting to die, she would have already told her what caused her to feel like that and wouldn't need to leave a note to her. I'm pretty sure the message was is for everyone else besides her sister. Edited July 23 by meadsoap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon87 Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 I just can't imagine how everyone involved must feel now. That's just so heartbreaking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And wreaking havoc on everyone else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Eric Cantona Posted July 23 Popular Post Share Posted July 23 Horrible. I hope the family gets to process the grief as they need, and that the people affected can rely on each other for support. Remember to reach out! We feel so often determined to see out our heavy internal struggles by ourself, due to a myriad of reasons. Do your best to talk to someone, whether it be a loved one, a therapist/psychologist or someone entirely of your choosing. Mental health is just as valid as your physical health. Serious internal troubles can be just as terminal as a serious physical illness, there is no doubt in that. I know that reaching out to someone, or just hinting towards the topic itself can be daunting. Perhaps you don’t want to scare someone with sharing your struggles. But whatever a loved one’s reaction may be, I’m sure they will forever prefer that to a life long lasting grief. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BucketEgg Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Just checked in on what was going on in the forum. The last thing I saw was that Slash cancelled some dates. I thought he or somebody in the band got sick or injured. Never thought something as devastating as this would be the reason 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-Ass Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Well.... Finally finished watched that Pro Shot from the live stream... It definitely had its moments, but it also didn't get me super excited for next week's show. The band is great. That drummer is something special. I thought Slash was fine with some great moments. The setlist is pretty good and the songs with Tash on vocals smoke. Big Legged Woman is a phenomenal jam. Fucking Teddy though.. Sorry to beat a dead horse but his vocals ruin almost half of the set.. The band and Slash's leads save some of those songs but every time Teddy opens his mouth it sounds like terrible satire whether he is singing or even just talking... Born on a Bad Sign might be the worst of them all. The only song I thought he was "decent" on was The Pusher.. The Bob Dylan song would have been better as an instrumental. Having Teddy on both encore songs seems like a bad choice as well. Why not give Tash a so in the encore? Or open the encore with Living for the City? We were all speculating on a re-worked Gn'R song or something. I do think that was a missed opportunity. At first, I wasn't crazy about Metal Chestnut, but it grown on me quite a bit, especially with that intro he does live. I still think it will be a great time. At the show I can try and focus on other stuff while Teddy is singing, though it is shame to have to entertain doing that. You can't escape him watching the stream... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Teddy and Tash it's really more of a blues covers bar band type of thing, despite Slash's status in the rock world. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He tours a lot and he does a lot of press and other projects it's hard to maintain the "I've gotta see him" excitement factor. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rindmelon Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 I did hear somewhere the record sold better in Europe than the US, maybe he is just touring in the wrong market. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Teddy it is like a terrible bar band that would make you cash out and try a different bar. Tash you would at least stick around but he honestly doesn't have much special going on. He still has his moments and is a huge upgrade from Teddy though. They can still pull of great performances of songs with Tash. Teddy ruins songs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than Teddy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Guapo Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 Yeah, it doesn't really do the album justice. Either a star frontman or doing smaller venues with this line up would have went better probably. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-Ass Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 I don't think they necessarily needed a star frontman.. Tash is good enough. It seems like his vocals are always low in the mix for some reason though. It is just bizarre having all these fantastic vocals on the album and then wheeling Teddy out there to butcher the songs. Ironically his vocals are the ones too high in the mix. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why he doesn't do all the songs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
