Here Today... Gone To Hell!

so the big question, did you get your luggage this time?

post some pics, I'd love to go to brazil one day :)

Yes it arrived with me! Amazing!

Haven't been anywhere yet.... So you'll have to wait for the pics.



/jarmo

Hey Jarmo if you need somewhere to stay or a guide in caracas, I am going to the GNR Concert in Venezuela,  send an email my friend, if you need any help!

lucio92@hotmail.com

Be careful with the dry weather in Brasilia!

You'll be welcome.  :)

Welcome to Brazil, Jarmo!  :D

Enjoy your coffee!  : ok:

Welcome bro hope you enjoy here. : ok:

Congratulations on getting  down to South America. I'm glad you're hitting the shows there (are you planning on going to all of them?) Looking forward to the updates. Have a great time! : ok:

Jarmo's twitter:  Beef, caipirinha, beef, caipirinha, beef, beef, beef, coffee.....


Who would've thunk we'd ever see a post by Jarmo where coffee did NOT dominate the post.  Or maybe he's talking about coffee flavored beef!!!  :hihi:



LOOKING FORWARD TO FOLLOWING THIS BLOG AND ALL THE SHOWS UPDATES!!!

HAVE A GREAT TIME!!!  :headbanger:

Jarmo's already having fun in Brazil!

Glad you liked our coffee  : ok:

We  :love: Caipirinha
kkkkkkkk

Jarmo drink caipirinha!

free shows for the win  :smoking:

i'm glad to see you're there... i enjoy reading your updates from the shows  :beer:

 :beer:Enjoy it and have a great time...

I'll have one of  those lime drinks please.  : ok:

Lucky for getting your luggage this time.  : ok:

BTW, stop drinking caipirinha. After the 3rd you won't be able to talk/walk/keep your dignity/take pictures.  :hihi:

Hope you enjoy your time in beautiful Brazil :yes:  I'm not sure I get the "beef" deal, is there something I'm missing?  I know when we visited Portugal Cow's were sacred, does it have anything to do with that aspect?  I love good coffee as well, and I bet that is some great stuff indeed!!

Have a great time Jarmo! Thanks in advanced for the updates.
I hope to meet you in Helsinki... how is it the coffee there?  :beer:

I hope the beef is Picanha! if its not you should definitely try it!! : ok:

caipirinha looks so fucking tasty ;D stuff that looks good, taste good and get you drunk kicks ass

Caipirinha is everything you said and a little more.  : ok: Cacha?a + sugar + lemon + some special way to mix it all that I never learnt

hehehe  : ok:

That's delicious isn't it jarmo?

I am very jealous of Jarmo right now, I'd love to be there.  ;)

The thing about Jarmo I admire is whatever Country he is in, he throws himself into the local traditions and culture. I'm like this myself when I travel to see GN'R.

Glad you're having a blast Jarmo.  : ok:


Lee

I agree with you totally, it is what you should do.  It is not everyday people have the opportunity to travel, so make the best of it :yes:

I, too, agree! And it's good because seeing him doing this, it kind of breaks that image most people have of Finnish people (jarmo's finnish, right?) that they're cold and "on their own". Jarmo seems like a very nice guy to have some drinks with! I'd like to have some caipirinhas with him, and see who can get out of the bar walking straight!  :hihi:

He can get pretty abusive, one time him and this guy threatened to stab me.

fuckin' awesome, I'm starting to like this Jarmo fella  : ok:

Hell yeah delicious hell meat...
OMG, he went to Porc?o!!!! The best ever.  :love:

We have a Porcao here in Portugal too, but the best one here is Chimarrao, Mineirao and Churrascao., which is the same kind of Restaurant.

If u guys ever need a guide here in Portugal count with me :hihi:

I wish I had known you in 06 when I visited Lisbon lol...to late now :)

Haha. yeah we have so many brazilian chain restaurants here. Chimarrao is like all you can eat Picanha beef and other kinds of beefs too, and you pay like 8 euros and u can eat everything you want. Including the desserts  :hihi:

And if u miss some american food, in case you're american, you can just go to hard rock cafe. And now we have about 6 starbucks stores too, since 2009 so its cool  :hihi:

who knows maybe GNR will be at Rock In Rio Lisbon.
I was living in Seattle in 2006 though, so u wouldnt have catch me in Portugal.

We also have some really nice black vodka caipiroska here, i just had one actually when i went to have lunch  :hihi:

shame if jamz can't do live updates, somehow wesurvived without them before :P

And they both fucking missed you.

Yeap its definitely Picanha! Great food!

The guy in the middle looks like Al Shapiro!

That is just crazy, I was visiting Lisbon from Seattle /wow.  Hardrock was a great find for us in regards to the good ol American Hamburger and fries.

Picanha from here,Rio Grande do Sul,is the greatest :D

So Jarmo, a finnish person, tried to finish with you?

That was lame, I know. (http://www.perfectcrimegnr.com/smf/Smileys/classic/facepalm.gif)
I'm on an Annoying Orange mood, so I guess I'm excused!  :rofl:

htgth    More Brasilia sightseeing in the sun, then got soaked in the rain. Refreshing.

Why is there a giant-size cereal bowl on top of that building??  :confused:

(http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs462.ash1/25369_344101027922_716682922_3706023_7092629_n.jpg)

Why is there a giant-size cereal bowl on top of that building??  :confused:
Ask to Oscar Niemeyer, the architect who design Bras?lia, the capital. :hihi: :hihi:

If it's in south america is a "giant cereal bowl" but If the same thing is located in USA is a marvellous example of modern architecture...

Actually, there are two. I believe they mean the "balance" desired for politics.  ::)

If you look really closely, it seems like there's somebody under the big bowl!

Is to Osama Bin Laden think that is another WTC and kill the politicians.

I'm sorry to disappoint you - the politicians don't work on those two buildings. Their cabinets are located somewhere else.

They don't work at all.  :P

Black humor...i don't agree with u!
But, they work hard...very hard:

(http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_YUMnOGUVs14/SfHPdEORswI/AAAAAAAAADE/fwaJCTuK6OU/s320/deputado+paciencia.jpg)
 :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Of course they work hard.

To play "paciencia" as we call here,is very hard.

Everybody loves food pictures:

Jesus Jarmo,is that a "p?o de queijo"?

I think it was cheese bread.... So possibly maybe.




/jarmo

yeah!

cheese = queijo

bread = p?o

:D

you have that for lunch?

P?o de queijo, lingui?a, farofa, feij?o...
hehehe nice, tasty!



Jarmo, at S?o Paulo eat at the JARDINEIRA GRILL, in the Bandeirantes Avenue, in front of FOGO DE CH?O BRAZILIAN STEAKHOUSE.
Fogo de Ch?o is excelent too, but Jardineira is much, MUCH better! (and more expensive too :S)

Yes, it looks like a p?o de queijo. Why the hell is it there? (Like, nothing to do with the rest.)
Anyway, the REAL and GOOD and ORIGINAL p?o de queijo you'll only find in Belo Horizonte.  :P

Read what Alimari said: the real p?o de queijo, the really good one, you find ONLY in Minas Gerais! :drool:

Thanks for telling me what I had for lunch.

I was told at the time, but obviously I don't remember any of it now.  :hihi:





/jarmo

I thought that, by now, you would already be aware that drinking lots of caipirinhas can make you lose recent memory!  :hihi: :peace:

Jarmo, eat a brigadeiro, only in Brazil you'll find it!  : ok:

?
I don't know why I thought at first sight that Lorena Bobbit had something to do with that :hihi:


Hey, brazilians, are you complaining about politicians? You're the strongest country in the zone and one of the potential leaders of the world in the next years...

Jarmo  eat  a acai . ;D 

Let me know when you're in Sao Paulo and I'll give you a tour where you can see things far more interesting than food  : ok:

(http://g.imagehost.org/0814/Marginal_Pinheiros.jpg)

Already had the ice cream!

The reason all those foods are on the plate is because I was at a buffet.

Apparently all the dishes are from the north east of the country. Or so I was told and I believe anything I hear.




/jarmo

Poor jarmo, he will come back home 50 pounds fatter if he eats everything we tell him to! :rofl:


We have major problems regarding corruption. But I think you know that. I know we're the strongest country of SA, maybe Latin America, in therms of politics and international relations, but still there is a long way to go to become a serious country with serious politicians. But that's a population's education issue too. For instance, there's a site (http://www.mcce.org.br/) where you can sign/vote on a campaign to only make eligible politicians who don't have a bad record with justice. Currently there's something like 1.5 million signatures and, last week, the lastest elimination on Big Brother Brazil had more than 80 million votes. So, what I'm trying to say, is that we will never be a really strong country with honest politicians who really represents all the brazilians if the population don't turn things around and start to be interested in politics, and learn how to and the importance of the vote. This year is presidential ellection year, but all people care about is the next Football World Cup.

But let's say I'm glad I don't live in Venezuela or Bolívia. No country deserves the presidents those countries have.  :'(

I understand every single word you're saying.

I would love to discuss but it would be off-topic.

But it was a pleasure to read you

Manets just revealed the very best goddamn motherfuckin' thing possibly made of chocolate.


Not sure about that. But it reminds me a joke:

God was creating the world and then when he set up to make Brasil:
- Ok, I'm putting this wonderful forest here. Then, some beautiful beaches here.. What else? Oh yeah, lot different fruits.. shiny sun...
Then, an angel came around and said:
- But, Lord! Why are you doing it? This is gonna be another heaven!!!
And the God said:
- No way! Wait a minute and you'll see what kind of politicians I'm throwing there!!! HAHAHA

Ok, it sucked.  ;D

I'm not gonna be "The guy who ate South America".

I'll leave that to Bumblefoot.....  ;)




/jarmo

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Yeah, we're only talking about food, when there's much more to enjoy.

I think Ron will be in danger here :hihi: . The food here (Argentina) is awesome... Ron will gain some pounds :hihi:

Certainly! :hihi: :hihi: Just now that he become thin

That's a classic!

On another note, Jarmo should visit Arruda!!

I highly recommend NiGhTrAiN?!!!  : ok:
Great tourist guide who pays for everything and drives around the city playing Bach ridiculously loud! But don't ask him for pizza.

Hahahaha I took her on a tour when she came to Sao Paulo.See I'm experienced
Btw It wasn't that loud and hey I have trouble finding the pizza place in the mall lol

The one of panettone:

(http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_31EMAdcXjsM/SxesdDE9bVI/AAAAAAAAB2E/6jTiHtV3zZs/s400/Panetone+Arruda.jpg)

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Cool man! haha

Jarmo will eat "Cacetinho" in porto alegre.

here,we call "Cacetinho" for French Bread.

Cacetinho?? CACETINHO??
You're not serious... please!














Cacetinho = little dick  :hihi:

Fuck yeah,is cacetinho!

=P

Axl likes spotted dick.

Nops, is this bread here:
 :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
(http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tW83KoQCqyE/RlUsNOKbHII/AAAAAAAACh4/rQOS12QMGQY/s400/p%C3%A3o-cacetinho1.gif)

I played "Stuck inside" hoping she would go nuts when she heard Axl and she didn't notice it was him LOL

CACETINHO?
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk


had to be from south!

Yeah,i posted that in GNR Brazil forum :D

Jarmo, you are a celebrity!
(http://images.orkut.com/orkut/photos/OgAAAFkugAC8bFCCWtolIZ1QLSw0oA_c4c3fLtZzcPUtOjdnyQaCvg-_VVv-u-i9IWjhSqYQm3rLE8SFbfiIB2EDkk8Am1T1UN9D7RzHgRTlAUP0XH-R7DNL2nZn.jpg)

OMG [don't know what else to say]


What's the point of embarassing me in front of everyone?  :hihi:


He looks nervous, don't you think?

In Porto Alegre this bread is known as "cacetinho". I remember laughing A LOT at a local store when a woman in front of me asked for 6 "cacetinhos".  :rofl:

I know, I was there.

 :hihi:



/jarmo

I'll try to find you guys at S?o Paulo.
Can'y you give us a tip about the hotel?
In case of you knowing the name...

I want my pic with Jarmo in Argentina.  :hihi:

same thing to porto alegre lol

I want to know about the private gig in Rio lol

Fuck,i want to take a picture with Jarmo here in brazil :D

Yeah. Look for it at the corner of get a fucking clue and fuck off.

 :-*


/jarmo

I have my sources :D And there are two rumored hotels where you're staying at Sao Paulo.

Wait until you eat some argentinian asado. That's the real deal.

can't you respect the band's privacy and leave them alone? I mean, do you have to be so disrespectful, if they feel they're being mobbed they may never tour South America after this....it's already been a long bloody time.....

Pardon me but if they didn't want the buzz - no pun intended - they would have stayed home

WHAT?! shut the fuck up, please. They're celebrities they are used to it.

Agreed. When Fans STOP caring about what the band's doing then there will be a problem.

But of course if U do manage to meet someone from the band, then U should always be  respectful. : ok:

Theres a difference between caring about what the band is doing and stalking them at their hotel though.  : ok:

Is Beta not from Brazil?  I wonder if Axl might be familiar with any of these foods already.  Could it be she has prepared some of these wonderful recipes for him?  I am also aware of the fact Axl has visited previous, but just thinking he is probably the familiar one to these foods.

No pic of Axl with a fan yet...

Damn he's hard to find.


However, I have the illusion of taking a picture with him in Buenos Aires

You could take a picture with me and make Manets jealous....



/jarmo

Just a word of warning for ppl coming over to Sao Paulo gig.If you haven't booked your hotel yet do it NOW.Indy race is taking place the following day after the concert in an area considerably near the venue.
If you need directions or info, feel free to private message me

So on...

I don't think it would be sane if Jarmo came around telling everyone where he's staying.
What if some user here is a fuckin' maniac and tries to kill him????  :nervous:

Of course! :hihi:

I saw Jarmo's pics of Brasilia, I'm glad he liked the city, it is great, right? I really enjoy living here.

Although the promoters did the wrong thing by booking the gig on the Nilson Nelson gymnasium, as Axl could have sold out Mane Garrincha stadium easily! I'm sure that the Sao Paulo gig will be the best, as the stadium will be packed. :peace:

it's called "TRUE coffee", man  :hihi:

U should try the portuguese Coffee too. Its really strong comparing to the american one. I do love starbucks though

I was reading this yesterday and since my phone internet is slow, i didn't bother to login cause it would take ages..

But i read what happened to Jarmo's Phone. Fuck... that sucks! Its an Iphone, it costs a lot of money! I would be extremely pissed off!

What happened Jarmo? are you ok?

saw that jarmo made GnR's band tweet for getting his iphone stolen - I'm guessing he's never seen Turistas

Anyways i wanna salute Brazil for the awesome first show and for the hospitality to the band and crew, and for the amazing work with the banners, the photos and the videos posted here. Awesome Job!


From Portugal ( o pa?s irm?o) I salute you!  : ok:

i'm waiting take my picture with jarmo :P lol

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PH2F4Tmm5Pw&feature=player_embedded

Nice vibe i am proud of the Brazilians fans that Rocks !

Call To Cel.

Yeah, it's exactly like that. ::)

Hope it's covered by your travel insurance Dude.  Often with these kind of things it's not only the cost of replacement that's the problem, it's the complete ball-ache it causes, being away from home your phone is your lifeline.  The last time I had a phone stolen it felt like a real intrusion, although the data was reasonably protected - it's the inconvenience someone has caused you that sucks.  Advice to anyone with an iPhone is to ensure you have auto-lock enabled - that way 10 wrong pin entries wipe the data on the phone.

At least with an iPhone, a quick sync back to iTunes put's you back where you were, so no lost contacts etc.

Anyway, enough of the negative stuff, enjoy the rest of your trip and come home safe with a shit-load of cool memories  :beer:

I'd be pleased to read some notes from the show now jarmo :hihi:

Jarmo's in Belo Horizonte now.  :) Welcome!

Jarmo, ?Are you going to come to Bogot?, Colombia?

from brazilians I know it's not too far off

Where are you from?

It doesnt matter. Its just plain stupid to compare a non-sense bullshit movie with the reality.

Jarmo should check the cheese bread in Belo Horizonte now. It should be a million times better than the one he had in Brasilia. 

OMG so awesome! Wish i could follow & see a few shows here and there. I have not had the opportunity of seeing Brazil - hopefully some time soon  ;) have fun - take care - and keep safe  :beer:

Jarmo did you ever find your phone?

Traveling around without a phone is very dangerous now a days....

Canada  : ok:

From Jarmo's Tour Blog: 
 :o  OMG!!!  That sounds like you were part of the crew that was AT the stadium when the storm hit!!!  :o

Thank God you and the others are all okay!!!

(http://img197.yfrog.com/img197/185/axl2ftlog.jpg)

(http://img46.yfrog.com/img46/6439/gnrbr015sss.jpg)

poor poor non-friend Ron  :'(

Yeah I thought about that line too

 :hihi:

He's my drinking buddy....  ;)



/jarmo

LIAR!!!!!  We all know that Ron doesn't drink!!! 

I have seen him drink Gatorade, water.....



/jarmo

He spends a lot of time taking pictures with fans in Lima in this (pixelated) video:

Axl Rose en Lima

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrrT1EsEQl8

Great job by Axl there.  Seemed like it started to get a bit crazy there and he took hold of the situation and made a lot of people happy :)

Jarmo drinks then Ron (still sober) takes him back to the hotel.  :hihi:
That's why Ashba's nobody drinking buddy... oops, sorry for that!

Someone got burned. : ok: Seems that those of us whom are 'only children' notice ;)

But wasn't there a part of Ron's journal from the NA '06 tour where he mentioned he went out drinking and didn't remember anything he did?

OMG!!!  :hihi:
Here's a clue for you
(http://gypsysoul.lunarpages.com/clue.jpg)

Ron has what some might call a "unique" sense of humor.  He was being "entertaining" in that drinking post in his '06 journal.  Just like he was "joking" when he posted in that same journal that he didn't know what a smoke alarm looked/sounded like.  ;)

Hmm, last time I replied to something you said, it was deleted because apparently when you attack someone, we are not allowed to respond. Or if we do, we get banned for 3 days ;)

But let's give this a whirl...

OMG! Thanks for clearing that up! : ok:

I can't find a link to that diary that Ron wrote and I'm curious to read it again, anyone have one?

on the subject of bbf and drinkin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1R7jCC1nN8&feature=related

oy fuckin vey  ::)

For Clarification:  I was only JOKING when I posted that Jarmo doesn't consider Ron a friend.


P.S.  I was also joking when I called Jarmo a LIAR in this thread and a smart-ass in last night's show update thread.

Since you like to act all innocent, you were temporary banned for calling another poster a cunt.

Why don't you fucking stand for what you said instead of acting like the victim?


Same shit over and over again. You've never done anything wrong. Poor poor you!

 ::)


As I told you before, you're not gonna get more chances to stop acting like a fucking smart ass....

Don't have time to play your games.




/jarmo

I called Gypsy a cunt with my report to a moderator, I believe it was "Why am I not allowed to defend myself when this cunt attacks me?" -- something along those lines.

Could I have called her something else, of course. Did I? No. I never said I never did anything wrong, but when you don't allow someone to reply simply because Gypsy is a 'respected member here' -- it's shit. You reply and are allowed to respond how you see fit, you never hold back. So what's the difference?

I don't remember my reply in the regular thread, but I know it wasn't anything bad. Just a shame when you censor someone and not allow them to defend them self.

No games being played here, just how I see it.

Do you have access to see my reply, since it was deleted?  All I remember is saying something about not being an only child, and that Gypsy being the only one allowed to post twitter updates or something like that? Quite dumb if you ask me -- but apparently it hit a nerve with someone.

*edit* added the italics

I love the way you assume that I'm stupid.

Before you started your little campaign against Gypsy, you and your buddies were after AdZ.

How many times do you think history needs to repeat itself before I catch on?

Assuming I'm as stupid as you think I am, I probably shouldn't have noticed it yet.


So please, put an end to the fucking charade already.




/jarmo

To be honest, your buddy Adz (or is it a capital Z :P ) seemed to have an agenda against myself before I ever started anything with him. If I read back in some posts, I'm sure I could find it.

I have nothing against Gypsy, I just think its unfair to allow some to voice their opinion and say what they want -- and others are not allowed. When someone is attacked, they should have an opportunity to respond.


I don't think you're as stupid as you think that I think you are.


It's over to me, just want to make sure us users are allowed to defend ourselves (to an extent, no need to ATTACK) when we are talked about by others -- no matter if they're on the 'circle' or not.

How would you feel, you post something in response to someone talking about you -- and it's deleted. No notice, no reason. Just deleted.

You wouldn't know, cause it never happens to you -- but it's a pain in the ass.

 :o  You called me a cunt because I said that the band was showing Jarmo "brotherly love" by flipping him off in those pics??

I'm glad that got deleted because that would've really hurt my feelings.  :'(

 

Well you're assuming I actually respond to every attack made against me.

Which I don't.


Once again you're acting like the victim.

You honestly think a moderator has nothing better to do than to seek out your posts only to attack you? Right...

It's just a matter of you being a smart ass, trying to "have fun" with your buddies. Unfortunately for you, we saw what you were doing.

You didn't like that so you started your vendetta. It's been going on for a while now and it's boring.

I have asked you to stop. You keep going on and on while acting like you've never done anything remotely wrong.

Now you're steering this thread totally off topic.

Suddenly this thread isn't about the South American tour, it's about you. Congratulations.



Don't worry, the tour is ending so there won't be anymore blog posts.




/jarmo

Thanks Jarmo for doing these tour blogs.

When I go and travel to see GN'R, I love checking out the different cultures as well as the sights. And that's what I love about all the tour blogs you have done up until now. You go out your way to post pictures and information about whatever city/country you are in.

It also makes me look forward to seeing GN'R live again, after my trip to Toronto.  ;)

Boooooo to that  ;) 

Seriously - - I have greatly appreciated your blog posts, updates, pictures and cameo appearances.....and hope we've not seen your last!    :yes:

I was hoping you would do the blog on the European tour aswell.. :(

This is the SA one.... Which is ending soon...



/jarmo

Oh, I see. My bad.

After this tour ends, will you post stories about hanging out with the band? like a funny story or something?

Yes, maybe he could tell to you the day I met him in Buenos Aires (Jarmo didn't know that guy was me until now :hihi: ) and all I could say is "See you at the show". Luckily, there was more people in the group and some of them talked with him a little.

I tried to find something to say but only "See you at the show" came to my mind :hihi:

Hey Cotis, Jarmo thinks you're smart enough to hatch up a scheme, get all your little internetz friends coordinated and waste all your time to go after useless internetz people you will never ever meet.

And you say he doesn't like you!  :beer:

Hey Jarmo, thanks for all your posts, updates and blogging during this tour.  I've been in lurker mode recently but just wanna let you know that all your efforts are avidly read and greatly appreciated.   : ok:

You're a great guy and I'm so happy that you're getting to live the dream!  Hope to catch up with you sometime during the summer when the band are in Europe.

Thanks again!   :beer:

Oh and a huge thank you as well to all the fans in SA who provided updates and reviews of the shows and all those who went out and showed GN'R such a lot of love and support.

Calling someone a fucking smartass isn't nice either Jarmo.  ;D

Well, predictability is always so nice.

From Jarmo's Blog:  Last day of the tour for me, flying home tomorrow.

Thanks for letting us all "tag along" with you on this leg of the tour. 

The blog n' pics are always awesome and entertaining!!!

Thanks for all the show updates n' pics too.

All this couldn't have been easy to do especially after your phone got stoled.

IT'S ALL BEEN VERY MUCH APPRECIATED!!!  :beer:

HAVE A SAFE TRIP HOME!!!  :)

I think it is great of Axl that he is willing to making pictures with his fans.
Hope more fans are abel to get that oppertunity too with him.

If you come to my country please give me a mail for a picture, i hate it when persons are to pushy ( when the oppertunity is there for me).

Thanks a lot, most fans loves this side of a warm hearted Axl.

Anja

Hey Jarmo,

thanks again for the updates and the amazing pictures of the shows.Thank you for let us GNR Fans being alive...


Have a safe fly home!

Dear Jarmo,

 I am sure that I am not alone in feeling deep empathy for your predicament. I just heard that flights are still being grounded until at least Wednesday. A friend of mine wrote this small poem that I want to share with you. I hope you get home soon.

I hate that damn volcano
Gonna have to find another way
Find another day
With all these grounded aeroplanes
Oh, my life
Maybe, I'll get a flight next time...

Are we going to get a "Stuck in the USA Blog 2010"?

How much longer you stuck Jarmo?

Jarmo my husband says that if you want to backtrack a little you can stay here and we will show you some sweet Seattle hospitality while your waiting to get home.  We know obviously that is not going to happen, but we are hoping you are safe and sound and are able to return home soon.  Hang in there, I am sure you are making the best of your situation.

Not sure where to post, but I figured you check here. Jarmo is there anyway for you to find out where Axl got those Two HUGE Rectangular rings? The one he where on his ring finger on each hand. I'm sure they were custom made... I have been looking for something remotely similar, but cannot find anywhere. Thanks.

Jarmo, I'm glad you got home safely eventually.

It must seen ironic to have travelled all the way through South and Central America, only to have the flight home cancelled for well over a week.

I suppose you got to see some sights you wouldn't have, so I guess it worked out for you in the end.  ;)

Glad you made it home as well. Since that volcano could keep erupting on and off, I am cancelling my trip to England. I do not have the financial means to risk being stuck in London for a week and my vacation days were super tight. How was the atmosphere in the airport? Were people tense? Were the employees in the airports helpful? Hopefully I will get to see GNR in the US this year.

sounds like a blast jaramo, hope you had fun, i bet you cant wait for the boys to play on your stomping grounds. so is the party going to be at your pad when gnr play there? lol  now that sounds like a very cool spot for a suprise gig lol
