Injury Forces Guns N' Roses To Postpone Concerts

[sic.]

Tommy's sprained wrist = Buckethead's mystery stomach ailment.

Hey Axl!? You don't think we actually believe this shit do you?

Guess Buckethead never left.

Guess they really didn't work jack squat on the album last January.

[grog mug]

get well soon man...and get your asses to the STATES!

[redx]

while the lastest news delays the tour..
it should allow the band more time to get the mixing finished..
every cloud has a silver lining

Lol at muthergoose luvr.  Too bad your post got deleted. 

We have nothing to worry about people.  Gunsnroses.com says the tour is on.  Check it out!

Why would you worry anyway?  Were you attending any of the shows?

[BeefyD]

That's the reality of the situation, which seems to be beyond some people posting in this thread.

Guess I should thank god for small mercies - no poster has yet blamed Tommy for being an asshole, because he missed a show because of a death in the family and now he had the decency to hurt himself just before the Japanese dates. Just the usual routine; Axl fucking things up.

How many shows did Gn'R cancel in 1987 after Steve broke his arm before getting Fred Coury from Cinderella to cover for him?

He's just worried about all the japanese fans who are missing out on guns....don't you see that ?

[ppbebe]

is it just me or comparing the postponement of rock shows to war (killing) doesn't make sense and is plain silly.

Steve broke his wrist. It takes months for a broken bone to heal. Its a totally different story. They werent just gonna cancel the whole tour. Tommy' s hand is just sprained. If he rests it then it should heal fine in two weeks. Why do shows with a temporary replacement, better to postpone and give the fans the right show.

I don't think Bucket had left the band at that point.  It was another delay due to um let me think - oh yeah Axl.  But Axl's decision to use Bucket as an excuse for the '04 cancellation didn't help their relationship.  I'd be pissed enough to leave too. 

On topic:

I hope there is no deception behind this latest delay.  I do like Tommy and I don't think he'd allow himself to get quoted lying to the fans.  But its Axl's fault that people question the validity of everything surrounding Guns N' Roses.  There have been so many coincidences and poorly timed maladies over the years that some unknown percentage is pure bullshit. 

[DemocracyRose]

Yeah bad news but atleast they still gonna play the SA dates and maybe this will give Axl some extra time to finish up CD...

But didnt Bumble say that if its not on GNR.com then dont believe it...

Do we know who WAS going to be opening these shows?

Nah, no one had been announced yet.

Thank you for that.

I'll throw in an old Duff interview concerning the Adler/Coury situation:

'This wasn't the first time the band had to deal with substitutes, since drummer Steven Adler was out for several weeks with a broken hand, replaced by Cinderella's Fred Coury. "That was very strange," Duff recalls of playing with someone different in the rhythm section. "Freddy is a great drummer, but every drummer has a different feel, and even if he's playing exactly what Stevie's doing on the record, it's not the same."'

- Circus Magazine


Go ahead and compare the Brain/Frank situation to it. Again, it's a different story, Frank had a chance to understudy and augment his own sound with the band prior to his first live appearance.

my condolences go out to Japanese fans who were looking forward to this set of concerts.....especially those who were going to see gnr for the first time...

here's hoping that the South African dates don't get affected, and I hope that Tommy gets better soon....

No problem...oh and by the way...thank you Duff.

Jarmo, are we not allowed to notice how awful the GNR official page is?

If so, just please post something letting everyone know that we should continue to pretend like the official site is good for something other than buying overpriced merch and getting spam from MLB.

Seriously though, why the fuck don't they just pay Jarmo to do it?  He'd do a great job of keeping their site updated.
