Title: Fine Print-Is Guns over?
Post by: Ron Jones on December 15, 2006, 12:54:03 AM
When I agreed to do our recent North American tour I agreed with the understanding that I and my manager Merck Mercuriadis were in full agreement as to our strategy, touring plans and most importantly that any and all things needed to release the album at the latest by Dec. 26th were to be in place. Unfortunately this turned out not to be the case and not only do I regret to say that again the album will not be released by the end of the year but that though many things went extremely well and were very exciting there were in our opinion unnecessary and avoidable complications on our tour having to do with the tour routing, scheduling and album and video plans that played hell on all involved especially our crew. This was compounded by an overall sense of a lack of respect by management for the band and crew and each individual?s particular expertise that has resulted unfortunately in the end of both Guns and my relationship in having a management or sense of band involvement with Merck Mercuriadis.

Am i missing something? I am truly excited but confused at the same time, can someone explain that statement to me is the band folding?

He's saying the end of GNR's relationship with Merck and his relationship with Merck.

"both Guns and my"

means that both the band and axl himself, together no longer have Merck as their manager.

It does not in any way imply that the band is over, you are just reading it wrong.
