Is Friday the day?

[reayj2003]

Well we shall see what the morning brings! With any luck it will be costing me a couple of hundred quid!  

Regardless of the announcement I won't be buying tickets- day tickets don't go on sale until later, and I'm not spending a second longer at that awful event than strictly necessary! Worst crowd I've ever been part of the last time GNR played there.

I think a "reunion" line up will get a much warmer response & a lot of proper music fans will go just to see them.

If it happens it'll be interesting to see what impact it has on ticket sales.

                It would be pretty cool if the promoter or people who do the announcements go through all the bands and add to the drama . Then at the end as they go to finish one of the guys can walk up.


"Sir your forgetting the headliner..."

"Yeah , yeah can't believe I'm forgetting that. Ok folks the band that will headline Reading Festival 2016 is the band in this video...................."

Yeah, quite possibility.

I got invited to the launch party of Leeds 2002. There were drinks and stuff then they revealed the line-up. People were clapping and cheering when certain bands got announced. GNR came up and I shouted in excitement- huge deal obviously as it was their first time 'back' after such a long absence. The whole room just looked at me! One man said to me after "why do you care about Guns N Roses playing?" I couldn't believe it! Idiots!

11 hours until GNR is (more than likely not) announced!! A fan can only hope... But hey, it's in August. Chances are there will shows before this even if they did do it.

They would sell out anyway without a reunion, but if it is... Tickets will be gone soon!

Who exactly stated first that there might be some sort of announcement Friday?

Was it because the festival lineups are supposed to be announced?

Certainly an exciting time to be a GNR Fan, I said that before and got bashed.

I'm enjoying this  

Yeah but you are one of the most easily impressed people ever to exist.

Enjoying what? NOTHING HAS HAPPENED FOR 18 MONTHS.

Jesus Christ..... talk about deluded.

It's special (and creepy) you think you know anything about me.

It's certainly been interesting.

Jesus Christ....talk about a whiny negative crybaby.

Likely because you say it 24/7/365.

"Wonder if Emliy thinks things are going well?" is never a question that ever has to be asked.  We're pretty confident where you stand.

Conversely, if you ever said "well, that's somewhat disappointing" about something, that's a true "remember where you were" moment when you read it.

And that's you even couching it with *somewhat*.  It would still be news.

But we can always count on you to be disappointed,bitter, and Wrong.

Emily, help me out :

- band releases album
- band goes on tour
- band loses 3 members
- band goes totally radio silent for a year plus

In what rational universe can the answer to all 4 of these things all be how its a great time to be a GNR fan?  It can't.

In fact, the only rational explanation for the consistency of the position is to surmise that its going to be said, no matter what the circumstance.

Rather de-valuing its impact over time.  Which was the whole point here.

This is exactly the point. It defies any type of logic to a sane person.

All you will get is the type of answer she just gave me... ooooh you're creepy... or some other spin that she thinks is clever and/or intelligent, which it obviously isnt.

The only news today is that Scott Weiland was found dead

Au Contraire- I don't "have" to "try to sound intelligent" when talking to someone like you, it's unnecessary and wasted.

What other band generates and inspires such wild speculation and such a media storm while on Hiatus?

I'm enjoying the ride regardless of any outcome and timing.

Sorry I'm not a negative little whiner like you

[reayj2003]

So we could still expect to see GN'R at Reading & Leeds?? It would be excellent to have them on same bill as Chilli's.

Sad news about Scott. Had some of the best nights of my life watching VR on their first tour.

also, terrible news about scott. makes me feel grateful for my friends/family. if this news were about someone i know or even about ax id be devastated, and i bet thats how many stp and vr fans are feeling right about now. my condolonces to his friends, family, and fans. terrible news. it happened so suddenly... just the other day he was talking about the reunion. never thought he would have died soon after that. crazy world we live in. life is too short to be cruel or petty.

Yes, I said it was an exciting time to be a GNR fan.

What other band could generate and inspire such headlines while on hiatus?

RIP Scott, did they find out the cause?

huh, well thats not very cool. oh well. (in response to the reactions to your comment, not scotts death)

i think the cause is as yet unkown. people seem to be assuming it was drug related. could be. just listened to plush and interstate love song. great songs. never knew they were stp songs. kind of surreal listening to them and contemplating that he just died/death in general. this has put me in a very wabi sabi mood.
