Follow him on twitter and you'll know better

FINALLY doing laundry... wearing nothing but shoes and a long coat at rehearsal. My tech made me a belt for the coat. For their protection.

I'd say the tech knows better

See what I mean? Rehearsal... that gives us so many thoughts!
Alright, the nothing but shoes and long coats gives me thoughts too, but don't mention that to anyone!

[cineater]

Well you saw where my thoughts went.   

[cineater]

Sittin' by the balcony, playin' geetar, watchin' trains go by.....

Where is he, Nashville?   

[helenluna]

yeah I couldn't figure that out too... trains...

[cineater]

I took it for sitting by the upper level of the stage or the seating area watching the GNR equipment being rolled by for set up.  yeehaa

[cineater]

It's gone.

Our go karting friend from the Dizzy board is out in LA. 

Ron you reading?  He's an easy find.  You can not let this boy go back home without challenging him for the title of GNR's Go Kart champ.  I'll give you a little hint:  He's a professional go karter, you'll never beat him without a little help.  No, he'll drink you under the table too so you better get some damn hot groupies to distract him.

From the bumbleforum a years time ago:

'Just don't ever let me drink, seriously. Last time was with a whole bunch of GnR folks at a restaurant in NYC, I took a sip of something colorful at the bar, and hallucinted that I was a giant marshmallow. Jen said I was all freaked out, holding a big round chair up to my body. DO NOT EVER LET ME DRINK.'

Then there was that incident in Boston where he kept running and running....

So if we get Ron drunk and put him in a go kart, he might just win but he may not stop at the finish line.   

[jarmo]

He might win the race just by running.....

[Leddy]

Bizarrely, i've sorted some LA karting for later this week

Ron is welcome to join us!!!

[cineater]

Leddy, Leddy

Better drag Chris along too, show you what open road means out here in the middle of the country.

[cineater]

I don't know leddy, Ron got a new guitar.  May not see him again for a while.

Cant wait to see it!

He wrote the 'Getting comfortable with the new fretless/fretted double-neck. What a strange beast...' on twitter 22 hours time ago... think Ron should consider showing it now! 

[cineater]

Yeah I think Ron's out of the race and as far as the other contenders go:

I'm thinking no on Dizzy.  He's from the mountains, that means lower gears, speed will put you over the edge.  And he's been living out in LA, everybody knows what traffic is like out there, he'll be right on your bumper.

And of course Tommy don't drive.  Frank's from NY so he may not drive either, a car is just a pain in the ass out there.

Chris, head him west and there's nothing but open, boring road all the way to Colorado.  He can probably fly down that road but I'm not sure if he knows what to do on a corner--lol.

Richard is from St. Louis, speed limits don't apply here but we're all about letting someone else go through that speed trap first or last for easy pickings.  He'll be in the center of the pack.

Now DJ he's from Indiana, I'm betting he's driven some gravel roads.  I'm betting he can take a corner and come out on the gas.  This is where he'll pass the pack if he don't slide off the road.

I still think it's Ron who stands the best chance of taking him.  Not that I want to see the home board boy lose the title, I'll be cheering for leddy.
