Beverly Hills Civic Center.

Are you going with Garry?

[MotherGooseLuvR]

I got a message from someone named Gary who said he might go down there.  But we're not meeting up or anything.  I don't really know him.

Well good luck getting there......I'm going to sleep.

Looking forward to atleast the "news" in the morning.

It's almost 1AM in L.A right now, right? I guess we should hear something real soon if something interesting did happen.

A bit more info - havent found anything new this morning so far though with regards to pics:

 Versace isn?t the first high-profile fashion powerhouse to be lauded with Rodeo Drive?s Walk of Style accolade, but come February 8, Donatella Versace will be the first designer to accept the award off the famed shopping boulevard. The upcoming Rodeo Drive Walk of Style honoring Gianni and Donatella Versace will be held three blocks away on the steps of Beverly Hills City Hall at 455 Rexford Drive. The exclusive dinner and concert for 400 will be hosted by Rupert Everett and boast an illustrious guest list, including Prince, Elizabeth Hurley, Sharon Stone, Ingrid Sischy, Franca Sozzani, guest DJ Samantha Ronson, and a rumored Elton John, who is said to be the night?s surprise entertainment. According to an event spokesperson, the ceremony won?t take place on Rodeo Drive because of weather-related concerns (February is traditionally the rainy season in L.A.). The spokesperson noted that the event has been held in the historic Beverly Hills Post Office when costume designers were honored, but never for a fashion house. The actual Versace plaque unveiling, however, will take place next Wednesday evening in front of 300 guests invited to the new Versace store on Rodeo Drive during a cocktail party being co-hosted by Jennifer Smith Hale and C Magazine.

I just want to say, I'd like to withdraw my comments about Axl playing this show instead of finishing the album. I talked to him for about twenty minutes tonight after sneaking into the Versace thing, and I'm confident he's really been working on the album.

Fans should just hang on a little longer. He's done a lot of work, and significant steps forward have been taken. I don't want to repeat specifics though.

For as pissed as I get about bailed tours, delayed albums, rotating band members, lack of PR, and shit like that, Axl's still an awesome guy. All my frustrations stem from him not putting out new music. But based on our conversation, I feel really good about him putting out the album soon. Maybe not March, but soon.

What's most important, is that Axl's happy. He said the last fifteen years of his life have been hell. It really was sad to hear him say that. With all the things Axl's got going for him, it really sucks that he has to be depressed. He said this last year did a lot to pull him out of it. He said he was having a ball that night.

I'd be having a ball too if my girlfriend was as hot as Axl's.

By the way, Axl said he thought the EMS site was fun, and posed for a picture with an EMS sign. We talked about how he met Pitman, and how he really got into Lusk. Also, Pitman played the bass that night because Tommy had personal issues and couldn't be there (nothing related to the band or anything).

Happy days for Axl fans. I haven't felt this positive about Axl since the Better HD ads leaked, and I went and posted those supportive signs in his yard. Looks like he's really taking steps forward. Rejoice!!!

Hopefully he'll give us an interview!? So many of the people who agree to give us interviews are critics, or in BBF's situation, where they don't feel comfortable talking about the band or anything GNR related.  Axl would give us an awesome interview.

Photos from that event are already posted by WireImage, but not any single one of the band or Axl?
