South African shows cancelled

[Edward Rose]

How does a band inform a venue that they have to cancel their dates and not inform the fans either before or immediately after the venue announces it???  This is absolute bullshit and one more flip off for us fans!  I'm just disgusted now!

How do you know an announcement isn't coming out today?

How do you know anything?

I'm disgusted at all you so called "fans" myself.

Summer, Donna.

Simma-don- nah

Simmer, down-now.

SIMMER DOWN NOW!

shut up geez....stop trying to be the knight in shining armour...if peopel are coming here to post then they are fans

this is shitty news of course people will be upset...we just have to wait for an official update

btw time to change your username

[Voodoochild]

I think people really need to calm down... Instead of actually bitching, seems like people don't care about Tommy's health.

Hope he's fine, really. Not only for the band and/or fans...

God, he hurt his hand...he doesn't have cancer for crissake!

Do you know HOW bad was? Do you know how this is a bad thing for a musician? Think before being posting.

Yes, and also time to simma-don-nah.

Josh Freese played the drums with a broken leg!!!! for over 4 months on tour.... so Tommy can suck it up and be a man. or get a replacement. one of the 18 musicians that are on stage now.

THERE IS NO FUCKING ALBUM! THERE IS NO FUCKING WORLD TOUR! THERE IS NO GUNS N ROSES!

GAWD.... that felt good to say. after over 18 yrs of being a die hard "gunner"... it's kinda like being reborn.

Tommy isn't just "the bass player" who you can replace at a moments notice - he is also the musical director of the band, meaning he is the one who's basically in-charge of rehearsals and telling the band what to do (when Axl is not there). You cannot simply replace this key position.

These are professional musicians, they don't need someone to tell them what to do. They've being playing most of the songs for a long time now, they should know 'em like the back of their hand. Even you do need someone in charge, you can replace that key position easily enough, just give it Dizzy who's been in the band 16-17 years. Failing that, maybe Axl could actually turn up to rehearsals and take charge, even if he doesn't get involved. These gigs are too important.

Its too muchof a coincidence that this stuff always happens GnR.

First off, Fuck you. I'm not "trying" to be anything. I am a Guns N' Roses fan, I run a message board exclusively for the new lineup and have done everything I can to support this band for years. And when I say "everything I can", I don't mean coming to htgth to bitch and moan, which is what a lot of people who come here to post do. If you want to call those people fans, go ahead. But I won't

I wouldn't become TOTALLY disillusioned. This HAS been teh best effort so far to tour and get the album out. But still, something tells me I'll be owing Howard2k a movie 

[MotherGooseLuvR]

Every band cancels concerts now and then.

This is nothing.

[jarmo]

Yet again a bunch of people who weren't going to any of the shows are the ones who are the most upset.


Maybe we should replace some of you since you're so fucking interested in replacing people.

"This isn't a band, it's just Axl's project. They have no chemistry.  "


"They should replace him!  "

Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out, brother.

does every band have the history of GNR?? nope. cancelled shows would be no big deal if it was Metallica or something... they will reschedule and put out records... no matter how shitty they get.

Does every band have the quality music GN'R has?

we cant be far away from someone posting a bullshit "GNR has broken up" thread, you know thats comin' soon.

God, he hurt his hand...he doesn't have cancer for crissake!

Yeah, no shit. I hope he gets better but somehow I can't feel bad for a millionaire musician who cannot figure out how to properly walk down a flight of stairs and then busts his ass in the process.......one foot in front of the other Tommie....that da boy...

You are a heartless bastard! You've never heard of something called an "accident" ?

God, I can't believe how fucking fucked up some of you people are! The way you turn on this band! It's so fucking sad. I hope they don't read this shit. It would make me feel pretty shitty to know so called "fans" are so quick to criticize them for accidentally falling.

[The_Wretched]

i went to 3 shows this last tour.

i lost my money from the cancelled 2002 tour.

i have bought every release from GN'R. some i still own in cassette.... spent thousands on merchandise. t-shirts, posters, collectibles, and pretty much became a musician because of GNR.

My first concert was GNR.

So... sorry... i didn't know i didn't have the right to be disappointed...

FUCK YOU.

I don't know. ?We hav'nt heard the quality of this band's music on an album.



Sorry, Jarmo. ?Had to be said.

FUCK YOU.

Wow, you lost some money in 02'

If you didn't stop being a fan then, why now?

Did Axl come to your house and beg you to buy T-Shirts?

Fuck you man, you are not a fan, you are just like everyone else.

BTW, I went to 6 shows last tour, and 2 in 2002. Plus I was in the Philly Riot, and had tickets to the next show that was also cancelled.

Funny, I don't feel like I'm "owed" anything. I guess that's because I'm not a selfish bastard!
