He's still around, right? He's Bumblefoot guitar tech.

Really? 

I thought it was Duff's bass tech back in the day.  Mike Mayhue?  Might have the spelling wrong.

Yes, Mike McBob Mayhue. He was Duff's tech until 2008 I think, then he came back to GNR.

Here's a video from 2010

I think he is highly visible I. The brooklyn bowl clips..that's what was so spectacular and unique about being at that show you were practically backstage..

metallica started a SA tour last night and they debuted a new song.

hopefully GnR does the same.

the time is right.

Better to have none and just be happy with whatever scraps you are fed, right? 

The whole "I complained because I had no shoes..." mindset.

[JAEBALL]

Not really....

it was reported that the band was gunna play new songs and the same people were proven right when they reported about Vegas, SA etc...isnt that why people think they are going to ?

and why not play a new song?

I don't expect a new song.  If we get one, that's a bonus.  (see, Jarmo...I can do it)

If you think in legalese terms, nowhere were we promised a new, as yet unheard song.  I, like several folks I have talked to, think "new songs" will be defined as a new cover or two, and perhaps and as yet played by this band track from the UYI albums.

trust me, Jarmo, the number of people actually "expecting" a new song is slim.

I dont disagree... but Jarmop made it like we pulled it out of thin air that they are gonna do something new...getting our hopes up

but it was reported by a reliable source that they will... thats why people are expecting/hoping

[jarmo]

Ok. So let me ask you this. Was it reported by that reliable source that they will play all those new songs this week? Or this upcoming leg of the tour?

The thing I'm reacting against here isn't what was said. Because I don't know if it's true or not since I don't know the source.

I'm just reacting to peoples' way of taking something as a promise of a certain thing happening at a certain time. When in fact that was never reported in any shape...

I loved the inclusion of UYI gems CW n' Estranged.

[D-GenerationX]

I loved the inclusion of UYI gems CW n' Estranged.

Both tended to be one of the better songs each night of the last tour, I thought.

When I saw them, I think 'Estranged' probably got the biggest reaction.

ha it was reported that they would play three new songs on this tour.... i don't know how you can try to spin that in many different ways....the people who reported it (we all know who) were proven accurate about some other things this year ...hence the expectation this is going to happen

did Axl say they will directly? no..so ofcourse if they dont .. you will say the band never promised anything!

i get it it... you dont want people to go ranting and raving if they dont play them...

but you know people will do that if they dont ... people want something new

[D-GenerationX]

Jarmo is just reflexively circling the wagons, but if you actually look at what is being said, no one really expects new songs.

[jarmo]

We can also exclusively reveal that the band are planning to present 2 to 3 new songs during next years touring.

How some of you manage to interpret that as "at the next show(s)", well that's up to you to explain....
Sorry for sticking to what was said instead of what you want was said....

By this rationale, if the entire tour comes and goes and no new songs are heard, can a critical comment be made then?

Or will you have some other way to excuse it?

After following Pearl Jam for years, all other bands setlist are a joke, especially Guns N Roses.
Eddie spends a couple of hours before each show figuring out the setlist, axl rose havent spent 1 hour in the last 10 years.
