I'll play.   I take it with '91 you mean the last GNR non-cover album.

Since 1991:
*I've graduated from high school, undergrad, and grad school.
*I've gotten married.
*I've fathered two amazing kids.
*I've completed a 70.3 mile Half-Ironman triathlon.
*I've been to four GNR shows:  Buffalo 7/92, Boston 12/02, NY Hammerstein May 12 '06, NJ Meadowlands 11/06.

The World Since 1991:
*1994's mass genocide in Rwanda kills 800,000 people.
*1995, OJ found not guilty...2008, OJ found guilty.
*Since 1991, major league baseball becomes a joke with rampant steroid abuse and laughable new records set.
*The greatest golfer to ever live dominates professional golf.  Tiger Woods debuts in 1996.
*December 26, 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami kills 225,000 people.

I was only 7 when UYI came out so alot has happened. But honestly the main stuff I remember is the GN'R rumours and Mag clippings. The live stuff in 2001/2002 then again in 2006/2007 and of course seeing them live 8 times in 2 weeks.

Some other stuff has happened in 17 years but that is the main stuff i remember. Honest to God.


 :peace:

^self checkout lines have been sooo overrated.  Until they devise a system where you don't have to stop as you go out the door, it'll suck.  There's got to be a way for them to implant disposable chips that charge your card automatically as you exit the store.  sorry, mini-rant!  :hihi:

3 rolling stones do a farwell tour

Stupid.  Brett Favre kept playing continuously.  He never sent in his retirement papers.  There were no gaps between his last game last year and his first game this year.  His streak continues.

The Rolling Stones never had a farewell tour.
