I got email from RonThal two days after i sent email him
I sent email from company email so Ron was cool and watched site
:





Hello Igor!
 
Thank you for being such a great supportive friend of the band - to travel so far to see us in Budapest - greatly appreciated!   
 
All the best to you - hope to see you in Serbia some day   
 
bbf
 
PS - nice site!  Congrats on your construction business 
 

[misterID]

Man, he is a nice guy.

bbf.... I just realized that doesn't stand for Best Buds Forever.

And Igor, if you have a hump back your parents are very cruel.

what mean "hump back "

[ppbebe]

a stoop?

Thanks gandra for sharing. We better have a new thread about Ron's mails.

And thanks Aragon and misterbrownstone.

I think that Gn'R will be playing in Mexico before the end of '06. TO answer your question, Axl has written all of the words on the new record. I think that they are the best lyrics he has written. Some really powerful and honest words.

Awesome guy! 

Yep, and awesome info.

[Evolution]

We better have a new thread about Ron's mails.

I reckon we should!

Richard just got back to me
Seems a little homesick (though Im sure the gig pay helps)

Hi Nick,
thanks for taking the time to write to me. I appologize for taking so
long to reply to your email.  I have been very backlogged with emails!
Thanks so much for your kind words. I have a 3 camera bootleg dvd from
the Boston show!  That was a good one.  I'm glad to hear that you like
VGH by Tommy.  I too think it is a really amazing piece of work.  I
think Light of Day is one of my favorite solos that i've recorded.
Very George Harrison.  I think that we are planning a US tour now, so
hopefully we will see you very soon.  3 months in Europe is a tough
one.  Can't wait to get home for a while and see my daughter!

[Gaymo, the Hobbit]

that's awsome that he has the 3 cam mix from boston

yeah- i guess the band members cant mind the shows being bootlegged if they have copies themselves

[madagas]

Being a 39 year old as well, three months on the road, partying and away from your daughter is tough. Hell, three DAYS in Ny for 2 Hammerstein shows and a Yankees game almost killed me.

Awesome guy! 

I wonder if they will be back to Brazil soon... not only in Rio de Janeiro, but S?o Paulo too... Mysteron, can you make a Brazilian fan happy checking this out? 

If they come only to Rio de Janeiro I wouldn't mind at all

When they come to Brazil I'm almost sure they will do gigs at Rio and S?o Paulo, maybe one at Porto Alegre too(but I'm not too sure about that), I'm hoping for show only at Rio and S?o Paulo because I can affort that!! 

Porto Alegre is soo far...

Richard told to a poster on my board that they are planning to play in Brasil before the end of the year.
