Or maybe they have something special planned for the last residency show on June 7th and he's counting down to that and will be teasing us about it until then?

He knows GNR fans over-analyze and read too much into things... my money is on the guess this is just an April Fools prank to mess with our heads!  Tongue

Or a passive aggressive stirring of the pot with a ready made excuse if he needs an out.

But this is going to happen for real eventually, people.  You can't never write, record, or release anything and expect people in the fold to roll with it in perpetuity.

67 days and counting.....
________________________________________________

 mmmmmh. Undecided

JUNE, 7 (67 days left) is the last show of the "Vegas Residency".....

The only people who do countdowns with their job are people who are unhappy. If that's how he feels, then fine. He's a nice guy but I personally don't believe in publicly showing your own personal unhappiness or dissatisfaction. That is meant to be done behind closed doors or handled directly. Again, this is my own personal opinion and how I handle my own business. Hopefully, I'm wrong, but if he's referring to the 67 days then being done with GNR, why not just leave now. I'd personally rather see Buckethead playing TWAT and Nightrain.

Sorry for the rant. My belief is when somethings not right, or you're unhappy, the only person who can change it is you.

Or I could be completely wrong .....  beer

That's the vibe I get too. 

I also don't think he's leave them in the lurch.

Even if you were take BBF's comments to mean that he's leaving the band in 67 days, that would be well outside the Rock on the Range date, so that rumor would have no connection to this.

RnT, the post is from a troll on the Rock on the Range message board. I am pretty sure he was discredited by someone on the board already. Just someone starting rumors. We know all about that as GNR fans don't we? Ha.

The problem is that although Ron seems like a really good guy, he does engage in this passive aggressive bomb throwing a bit too often for my tastes.  And based on reactions I'm seeing, I am not alone there.

He throws this stuff out there, they gives you the phony shoulder shrugs when people ask him for some clarity on his vague statements.

Yes, and no, IMO.  The dates don't match up, as I said, so I don't see any link between the two.

It could be passive aggressive, yeah.  Or, just unaware or indifferent to the questions that come up with some vague statements.

My question to those who have been at the shows on this run:

Is there anything in BBF's body language to indicate he was unhappy?

I saw a couple of clips where he was joking around with Axl, like the one where Axl put the Brazilian flag on BBF's shoulders and he wore it while he was playing a solo.  Those didn't exactly scream abject misery and unhappiness and a lack of camaraderie.

I don't think he has.

I think he has publicly vented his frustrations.  I don't think he's hinted at his departure for a while now.

This is all obviously speculation, but would it be totally out of left field for him to be thinking the same things many have been saying?

Axl unprepared, yet again.  No hint of anything new.  And the biggest "news" of the tour is a guy that left the band 17 years ago coming back to fill in a few gigs.

Put yourself in his spot.

It's a legit question to ask.

I attended 4 shows so far. While playing on stage, he seemed to be having the time of his life. And I truly believe that you feel that way once you start doing what you love - playing the guitar, for him - and all the shit that happened before this moment doesn't matter right there.

But he seemed pretty pissed in S?o Paulo during the wait for the show to start. He was on the side of the stage and eventually started throwing some water bottles to the fans. The show started shortly after that.

I agree that he always spouts things.  But, spouting frustration and actually hinting you're leaving are not one and the same.

I think that's looking at it from the perspective of a fan, and one who's not attending any of these shows.  Those in attendance and actually in the band may have a different view.
