The Mic Toss

[axlrosegnr]

Excellent ending to the story, pays to persist sometimes... 

Also, cool and ironic that it's got Beta's name on it too!

So here's how dumb I am, I go back and look and search for Beta's sig....hahaha. Yup.

No, he is actually right.  I posted the pics on mygnr.com, and at least from what I being told the signatures are:

-Bumblefoot
-DJ Ashba
-Tommy Stinson
-Dizzy Reed
-and Beta

Maybe someone here can confrim?  Maybe tell me what show it was from, or really just finding anything about at ALL would be absolutley amazing.

Either way, I'm like a pig in shit today.  Just so fucking badass.  Amazing.

Haha, oh, I thought he meant "Beta 58A" hahaha. That's awesome dude! Congrats!!! Can't wait to see your setup when it's done!

I know for a fact that 4/5 are:

-Bumblefoot
-DJ Ashba
-Richard Fortus
-Tommy Stinson

I just am 100% not sure who the 'X' looking one next to Stinson is yet.

I'm thinking it HAS to be Axl, but it doesn't really look like any Axl autographs I've ever seen before.

What a nice bunch of guys, many "stars" probably wouldn't bother but this band & management go out of their way to please their fans.
So not only did you get a microphone but one better - autographs as well. Really chuffed for you and your friend, they will be so excited.

[J.Hanover]

So stoked for you Brother!

maybe the B signature is Bumblefoot but I don't know. Now your mission should be to get the rest of the band to sign it and why not throw in past members to, maybe even the OG line-up if you dare? Whatever you want, just enjoy!

Guns and Roses 4 Life!!!!

The signature that you guys are having trouble figuring out is not Axl's or Beta's......it's Izzy's signature

The mic is also signed by the following:
DJ, Tommy, Fortus, Bumblefoot,

Indeed Izzy's sig. Looked at Google Images. Seems very similar to some of his autographs

So here's what I decided to do with mine for now....I'm thinking eventually I should have the whole thing enclosed though.

^ Oh that looks awesome. Definitely something to show to your kids/grandkids one day.

That's a GN'R collectable alright... 

Thanks for the photo axlrosegnr!!!...

[saltzy23]

I'm pretty sure it's Izzy's at this point.  I'm hoping someone in the know can tell me conclusively at some point when they have a chance.

That mic display is really nice.

Outside of a few small details I pretty much have mine all planned out.

My buddy is chomping at the bit for the official transfership of ownership.

Me, not so much...

It's going where it's supposed to be though.

A coworker gave it to me. I think he said from a company here in Vegas. I'll ask him tomorrow.

EDIT: Here's the link to the website for the displays. http://www.gaylord.com/listing.asp?H=4

Well, it took almost 6 months from the night my buddy and I caught the thing to get it all done up the way I wanted, but here, FINALLY, is the completed piece.

 

I am gonna be giving it to my friend tommorrow.

 

He is going to fucking love it.  I have never been as sure of anything in my life.

That looks KILLER man!! If you don't mind me asking, what did the frame and everything cost? Was it a custom thing or did you do it yourself?

[saltzy23]

I brought everything to this guy I have used in the past for these kind of things.

All in, everything you are looking at cost me around $700, which at least to me, is well worth it.

The framing was $575, mostly because that lucite was custom made, and took like 2 months to get finally get in.  It is the fucking Rolls Royce of lucite.

The rest of the cost was getting it PSA authenticated ($100 )in addition to the photos, and the room key, and Vegas magazine which I bought off eBay...

[Gunsguy]

look's amazing!

[Nightrained]

I love my friends, but I don't think if I got a mic sent from the band signed up, and spending $700 to frame it that I'd just give it to him. Did he save your life or something? 

[saltzy23]

If you reread the thread, maybe you might get it.

For one, I wouldn't have even been there if he didn't pay for my flight and hotel.  He has also laid out countless thousands in drinks and whatever since I have known him.

I am big believer in karma. 

Since I decided to do this many, many positives have happened to me in my life. 

I'm not really sure how I can express it, but I just know that it is meant to be with him.
