Title: Tonight was a good night Post by: Irish gunner II on July 22, 2007, 11:06:18 PM Well the situation is that my father goes to Belarus and helps the orphans there.
Anyway one of the people from Belarus came to Ireland a few days ago and is staying in my house, and I decided to ask the guy if he had heard of GNR. Well he said there is a lot of fans of GNR in Belarus and he loved the song Don't Cry. Well I pulled out UYI? 1 and played don't cry for him and got him the lyrics and he sang along to the song. Twas great to see someone so happy about GNR as I was when I first started listening to them. He said he liked GNR because their songs had messages to them and he like that. So I asked him if he had heard of Sweet child o mine and he said no so i played him SCOM and he loved it. I gave him the whole breakdown of GNR(both past and present) and let him see all my GNR albums and open them and everything, and he asked a lot of questions which I tried to answer. And he saw the original cover of Appetite and was like a kid at christmas looking at it. He like the name of the band aswell. Said the name had a romantic feel to it(he may have meant something else). And he asked for the words for sweet child o Mine and I gave them to him and he asked me the name of the song. Mods Sorry if this is in the wrong forum. Title: Re: Tonight was a good night Post by: Chief on July 22, 2007, 11:45:48 PM That is a pretty cool story.

I hope you gave him a copy of a bootleg or 2 of a live show :beer: That would require a bootleg of a show that I could use and give to the guy. And I think it's a great story, and good to hear that GNR has at least one fan in Belarus and maybe more.

He said he liked GNR because their songs had messages to them and he like that. That can be a dangerous combination in Belarus leading to serious consequrnses. ;) Title: Re: Tonight was a good night Post by: Vitor_Icewall on July 23, 2007, 02:42:19 AM Pretty cool!!!
