you can send me an e-mail at this address

 

please note:

this is not for asking when chinese democracy is coming out

Of course, why would you ask a BAND MEMBER, when their new album is coming out?

Like he'd know. This is GNR we're talking about.

Let's put it this way: He gets a shitload of e-mails, 20-40% of which are about Chinese Democracy even with that thing written there. Without it, it'd prolly be about 50-60% of all his mail. Now would you feel like writing everyone a genric 'it'll come out when it'll come out' response every time, or just post it on the webpage?

I will put it this way. Without his Gn'R fans, I highly doubt Fortus would be getting that volume of mail period. I doubt the Nena fans scour the net for the latest info, the same way Gn'r fans do.

And he respects those fans. There's a thread somewhere here where people have posted Fortus' replies to their mails. How much more could you ask?

Would be it better if he'd give vague statements like Dizzy? Would that satisfy you?

1)? After listening to Richard's work--there is no doubt that him and Finck will more than handle the guitar duties live!
2)? The guy can solo as fast, and as good as Slash, Finck, etc.
3)? He brings tremendous songwriting, riff ideas, to the table.
4)? Richard can play a plethora of instruments.
5)? I love his website, and when GNR reunite, I would love to see him reunite with Richard Butler, and write some tunes.
6)? I hope the band uses some of the music on his website in the future; if Axl could pen some lyrics to it, "My Platonic Puppy" could be Stones like, groovin, hit!

Richard's new site design is cool.? 8)
And, like others have commented, it's great to see the GNR tour dates listed by a bandmember.? : ok:

I really like that he included the music player.? I almost had a heart attack (in a good way) when the second song started with what sounded to me like very similar whistling to a song from the late '80s.? Wonder where he got the inspiration to do that?? :hihi:

He has some really cool stuff...I really like all his "western" demos, sounds great.

well it would be just posted on his site, any band member who has a site and had a new album coming out it would simply say when..

Exactly. I'd say Axl's personal site, if any, would say the same until it's the right time.

I think Richard is such a talented guitarist I can't wait to hear his input on Chinese Democracy and on the tour.

Just a last thing about his demos. Check that one http://www.richardfortusonline.com/music/fullmix%201.mp3
It's not on his mp'3 player but it's on his website, it sounds retro Rock, something like the 60's. a really cool tune. Good job on guitar.


Title: Song on Richard Fortus' website?
Post by: chinese69illusions on March 01, 2006, 02:26:56 AM
Alright I checked out his website? http://www.4tus.com/ there is an mp3 player at the bottom and all the tracks are listed that play in the player except for the first song can anyone tell me the name of the band that does this song or the name of the song I really dig this song. Help on this would be grateful.
