My brain remembers another thing: Axl introduced Bumblefoot as "the new kid on the cock... errr... block" (intentionally).

[Damir [#]]

And he introduced Fortus as "someone who will move to California", or something like that...

Also, if someone has bootleg of this show, or any previous acts (Alice In Chains and KoRn particulary),
please put the link here or pm me. 
I must have it, I'll kill to have it if I have to!

I've come to feel that Tommy Stinson is really the #2 guy behind Axl. He's easily the most independently famous member in the band (Dizzy's fame comes from being a minor role player in the old GN'R, and the live NIN players (Robin) never got much notoreity)- and we know he's stood up to Axl already and lived to tell the story (showing me that Axl values greatly what Tommy brings to the band and that he wields a certain level of power and influence that I can't imagine that the other players have)

I still think Robin is the soul of this band, musically anyway. Better is a prime example of it. He would be the biggest loss to this band if he ever left. Brian May said he was brought in (after Robin quit) because Axl was so emotionally attached to Robins work and couldn't listen to it.

And Robin left in '99. He was called back - despite the bitter comments he gave to the press while touring with NIN. He stood up for Axl after MSG '02. He's still in the band. Not taking anything away from Tommy, but he's not the only one in the band who dares to call a spade a spade in front of Axl.

Very true. Robin deserves his due as well. I think of him as kind of the "Izzy Stradlin'" of the new GN'R. A very important song-writer and influence on the band's "vibe" in general- while live chops not necessarily being his strong suit... kind of like Izzy back in the day.

Anyway, it will be easier to nail down a "pecking order" with this band after they actually release the album and make some videos, etc. I'm pretty sure that up until they made it big, Izzy Stradlin' was clearly the #2 man behind Axl, and Slash was just a VERY young hotshot lead guitarist... but not necessarily a band "leader". All that changed once Appetite for Destruction went huge and their videos were all over MTV. Slash became an international star virtually just as famous as Axl , and Izzy was relegated to a role well behind Slash and Duff. The same thing could happen here... maybe Bumblefoot (my best guess) or someone will become an international star overnight eclipsing everyone in the band except for Axl... at which point we'll definitely know who the #2 is.

Anyway, sounds like a great show in Milan. Good setlist and some great photos coming in.

One quick question about GoM .... Was their available GNR merchandise? T-shirts and stuff...? And a price ?


tnx



[m.]

[Damir [#]]

They sold unofficial T-shirts, flags and wristbands outside the venue for 10 Euro.

There was offical merchandising in the venue. But there were only 3 types of T-shirts,
not all of them. Price was 30 Euro. (greedy bastards! )
Also, you had official festival t-shirts for 20 Euro.
