Title: Tommy Stinson On False Tour Cancellation: 'It's Startling How Stuff Happens'
Post by: FunkyMonkey on August 23, 2010, 02:02:12 PM
Tommy Stinson has commented on the false tour cancellation to WNCX radio, here's the short audio clip and a rough transcription:

8/23/2010

Tommy Stinson:  It's startling to me how stuff happens, ya know, it's stressful.  It's like ya kinda think o.k. well I gotta get my life in order here cause I'm leaving in five days and then you hear something like that coming down the pike.  And it's like Sunday night and you're like how am I suppose to deal with that.  Everyone's just trying to figure out what's happening with it and how it happened and then I get the call that everything's fine, whatever -- it's just some crazy shit going on.

GUNS N' ROSES Bassist Comments On Rumored Tour Cancelation - Aug. 23, 2010

In a brand new interview with Cleveland, Ohio's classic rock radio station 98.5 WNCX, GUNS N' ROSES bassist Tommy Stinson spoke about the rumor that spread via the Inernet that the band's shows, including high-profile slots at England's Reading and Leeds festivals, were canceled.

"It's startling to me how stuff happens," Stinson said. "You know, it's stressful. It's like ya kinda think, 'OK, well, I've gotta get my life in order here 'cause I'm leaving in five days,' and then you hear something like that coming down the pike. And it's like Sunday night and you're like, 'How am I supposed to deal with that?' Everyone's just trying to figure out what's happening with it and how it happened and then I get the call that everything's fine, whatever ? it's just some crazy shit going on."

It must be frustrating and "stressful" when these things happen, then all the crazy rumors that follow -- and conspiracy theories. ::)

Good to hear "everything's fine." :)

Well to be fair, it does appear that all the shows in the U.S. have indeed been cancelled (save for the one off at some biker bar).

What biker bar?

I think we should just refer to this whole twitter mess as the WTF moment in GNR history.

He should stick to reading HTGTH exclusively. He wouldn't even have heard about the news.
