where you live in Brazil dude?
I?m from S?o Paulo

[Thorazine Shuffle]

Cool .  I was under the impression that fortus wasn't going to be answering e-mails about GNR anymore.

[GypsySoul]

Is this referring to those Rock in Rio concerts?? Don't usually a few years pass before they have the next one?

I'm not questioning what Richard said ... I'm just asking because I thought that's how this thing usually works.

[RnT]

the next rock in rio won?t be in Brazil.... so problably he?s not talking about that

[Genesis]

DOn't give up on us.  It will be worth the wait!

Easy for him to say... I do hope it's worth the wait....

Once again a nice little positive bit of news for the fans! Lets keep it coming and culminating with the announcement of the album release date!!

[Evolution]

It's kinda cool that after the sparse little comments we get from Dizzy and Tommy at gigs, we can just e-mail Richard and he'll tell us whats up 

[conny]

Thanks for posting.

Richard's cool, he answered one of my mails, too. A really fan friendly guy, I appreciate that!

[renthispace]

He seems confident. But he DID say 'HOPE'!!!

I'm not going to hold my breath. 

[Neemo]

Be he did say "we WILL have a NEW RECORD" no hope in there

I like the sound of that

How do you know FOR SURE they will tour next year or bring out CD?!?!

If they do - great!!! But there is more chance of them not.

[Voodoochild]

Hope it's true (about playing here in Brasil). If he indeed has plans to play here next year, I'll be there this time (missed RIR for stupid reasons ).

Well, it has to be released eventually and the longer we wait then technically the closer we are

or something.

We hope to be in Brazil in '06

and

we will have a new record!

DOn't give up on us.

it just sounded like a very "for sure" type of comment.

we might be in Brazil in 2006, but, for sure, we will have a new CD. And we're still together as GnR

It's just the way I read it I guess

of course the validity of the actual e-mail is always a concern in this type of thread. but it seems to go along with the other emials we've seen from him lately

[Evolution]

Did it take long for Richard to reply? I sent him a wee e-mail myself

richard fortus?

will be

For me, he already is. That guy could be almost as popular as Slash when the record is out. You'll see it. I have an "eye of tigger" to recognize the big talents. If I were an A&R, I would be billionaries. Don't worry for Buckethead's departure, it's nothing, just a small detail, Richard blows him away. Once he will take the Lead, He will be one of the most popular guitar player in the world.

[misterbrownstone]

i'd have to agree.  fortus's playing on the end of the blues is by far one of the coolest/soulful guitar solos i've heard in my lifetime. 

[Voodoochild]

Richard is an amazing guitarist and a really sweet person, but I think people are flooding him too much with those kind of emails.

LOL!!! Small detail? I can see how your "eye of tiger" works.

Dude, I think you want to bang R.Fortus. ?Also, your Buckethead bashing got old a long time ago. ?
