Jarmo, either this site is generating lot of money somehow or you've got a great day job because you really get around!
Yeah, I'm envious.... getting to travel around the word periodically to see GNR must be nice! I'll be waiting till the next time they make it to FL.

Yeah, I hear cigarettes are real expensive in Europe.
I don't smoke tobacco anymore and 'm careful with my money. No chance of me selling my house or my truck though - I'd have to sell the wife as well in order to sell the other stuff.
So I hope & pray we'll see GNR in Florida again in the not too distant future.

Jarmo,
Thanks for the post, it brings back so many great memories. It was a pleasure meeting you and AdZ, you guys are legends!
Quote
AdZ starts pushing the buttons on the washlet (Japanese toilet with a heated seat and shower....). Pretty soon the bathroom floor is wet.
haha... Everyone who comes to Japan has a toilet story. Did you try the traditional ones? My first time was a complete disaster... Oh well, shit happens...
Quote
Met a guy who was called Mini-Axl. He had the tattoos and everything!
Quote from: sexkitten on August 14, 2007, 07:04:20 PM
I enjoyed reading about your trip. Do you have any pics of "Mini Axl?"
Here's one... He was a really cool guy...
Quote
Went back to the hotel after the show since we had an early train to catch.
You guys missed out on all the free booze at my mate's bar...
Quote
Wednesday morning around 7AM we were on the Shinkansen to Tokyo. At the station I bumped into sukeberon.
Yeah, that was totally random. After the drinkathon at the Hard Rock and Shooters, DJcleaver, his brother and myself walked the streets of Nagoya as we had no where to stay and needed to sober up. Finally, we made it back to the station after going the wrong way numerous times. Saw Djcleaver and his brother off and was about to catch my train back home, when I saw you guys. Then I turned around and there was Mini-Axl!!! I had a hangover for days after that.
Quote
It was nice meeting some of you who post here, and also those who don't post but know of the site. beer
It was a true pleasure meeting you guys and being able to give my appreciation face to face of the great job you do running this site.
I'm glad you guys had such a great experience here in Japan. It's truly an amazing place.
I encourage anyone who wants to come to Japan to do it, you won't be disappointed. If any of you come to Nagoya, give a PM and I'll meet up with you and show you around... If I don't forget...

Get some sleep and then head to Pronto in th afternoon where we were supposed to meet some people from the board. I had some coffee and waited, but we didn't see anybody.

Thanks for posting, Jarmo.? Sounds like you and AdZ had an interesting time doing the tourist thing in Japan, in addition to watching GNR history being made, of course.? I'd have loved to hear Axl singing 'Don't Cry' again; emotions must have been running high that night and, I don't know about you, but it's that kind of surprise addition that makes me keep attending as many shows as I do.
Cheers, again!? ?
