Just got back from Sheffield

Oh my god what a gig!!!!! The weather was warm but it didn't put the crowd off. I watched Gnr at donnington but the show tonight was ten times better. And to crown it all Izzy played. I swear to god I could not believe it, i thought Izzy had done his tour on the european tour but he seemed to be on all night. Axl was in a fine mood and his voice sounded amazing. I tried shouting for the asshole song but it got nowhere. The set list had changed and the blues returned to the set list. Sebastien Bach came on and played my michelle and axl looked as though he was having a great time. the arena was packed the crowd was friendly(bar one or two people at the front). Seriously if you are that close to the front there is no need to push and fight. I hung around at the end and tried to get a set list and pleck!!! My one disapointment was the security they were very aggresive. I saw Axl look at them at one point and I thought it was going to go off. They were aggresive and rude and threatened to kill somebody for smoking a cigarette. nOw i know they have a job to do but fuck them neanderthals the lot of them. I wouldn't let them shine my shoes. A cigarrette is not a crime and wanting a set list is not a problem you dumb fucks.
One major change was irs,chinese democracy, twat were dropped from the set list and I felt robbed because of that. Gnr were on time and in their prime!!!! Axl had a great night and Izzy shouted out to me and my mate twice. I guess you can tell I am stiill on a gig high. However, I will be contacting the arena and complaining about the security like I said its just a job but no need for such violence, Izzy,axl and Gnr RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The reasomn Ron wasnt too happy definitely has nothing to do with him being homesick.
Its definitely something or someone who hurt him emotionally no doubt.

Maybe he is tired of being overshadowed by Izzy?

I know next to nothing about Ron, just the stuff I've read on the forums, his letters, and seen from Download, but he doesn't strike me as being the kind who would get annoyed at that. He came from playing small gigs to playing in front of thousands of people, I can't see him being annoyed at Izzy's being there..... but then again I could be way off the mark, afterall, not many of us really know much about Bumblefoot really.
Personally, I think he seems like a great bloke, and I just hope he is ok for tomorrow when I'll get to see them for the final time (hopefully not for THAT long
) at Newcastle. I'm sure he will be

Maybe Axl gave Ron his pink slip. I think Axl has realized that Ron has no charisma and it's time for him to go. Even if People don't like Bucket's style they can't deny his jaw dropping guitar playing. Bucket will be back for the US tour, I feel.

Finck should take lead duties and let Izzy fill the 3rd guitarist spot. I can dream...................
I like Ron, but he is missing something. Buckethead had the charisma & stage presence, albeit strange stage presence, but nonetheless.

My God, some people just never give up.
Anyway, to add more to the speculative pile - Id say Ron was pissed at the "technical difficulties".

I read a Richard e-mail earlier where he complimented Bucket. Here is what the e-mail said.
Codenameninja wrote:
What was it like working with Buckethead, as I am sure that behind
the mask he is an ok type of guy. Looking on the positive side of
things, if it were not for Gn?R I would never have heard of Bucket
Richard wrote:
Buckethead is a great musician. ?I really miss playing with
him. ?I thought he added something very unique and cool to the band.
He's a bit strange, but a great guy. ?I hope to work with him again at
some point
I really think that they might get the bucket back.

You really think Fortus would slam Bucket now that hes been gone for 2 years?
