how are we notified if it is cancelled? i'm going monday night to baltimore.
i just looked on TM and it looks like ticket sales are not doing so well.

The radio is usually notified right away once a cancellation happens but I don't think you really need to worry about Axl cancelling Baltimore.

also, i checked on papa roach's website and he's not going to be in b'more on monday with gnr, but sabastian bach is.

is it just SB? is there a chance that axl could play before midnight! i don't understand why TM doesn't have this info on it, listing the opening bands.

According to http://www.myspace.com/suicidegirls the Suicide Girls will also be opening up for the rest of the shows.

Seriously, you should'nt worry about him cancelling

The only fear should be that it's the next show ( I think) after MSG and in 2002, after a great show at MSG ( trust me) the tour imploded and we did'nt hear anything from Axl for about 3 years

You're entitled to your opinion, but you have NO idea what you're missing. If you did, you wouldn't have said that!

Don't worry about those guys, they worry over every little thing Axl does. This tour isn't like '02, Axl should make it all the way through this time.

You call them losers yet you feel the need to check out threads about them and post how you don't care about them? I think we know who the real loser is.

While sitting around waiting for the midnight start time in Tampa, my friend and I passed the time by planning what we would do when the inevitable riot broke out... I think we freaked out the people sitting around us.

Thats crazy! Every band brings contraband on stage! Do you think that venues say "sure snoop, you may bring a giant water bong on stage and smoke marajuana all you want!" ?

Im guessing NO! Rules are meant to be broken (but, then again, since my job is to uphold them, you didnt hear that from me!)

Michael J. Fox Rocks with Sheryl Crow, Axl Rose at Fundraiser
MONDAY NOVEMBER 13, 2006 08:45AM EST

By Mark Dagostino

Michael J. Fox raised more than $5 million for his Foundation for Parkinson's Research at a Beatles-themed fundraiser in Manhattan on Saturday night, thanks to a crowd that included emcee Denis Leary, Sheryl Crow, Martin Scorsese, Mohammed Ali, Famke Janssen, Rob Thomas and Susan Sarandon.

Rose, a surprise guest, took the stage at the Waldorf-Astoria Ballroom to sing McCartney's "Live and Let Die." Why the performance? "Michael had asked," Rose told PEOPLE. "We actually used a sample of Michael J. Fox from (his film) Casualties of War in one of our songs that will be on the new album. So I felt, one, I've always been a fan of his. And I also feel for the guy and his situation. I'm for stem-cell research, so I just thought it would be wrong not for me to come when I was asked."

Elvis Costello attended with wife Diana Krall, who's due to give birth in December. "But it's twins," said Krall, "so maybe sooner!"

Fox's wife Tracy Pollan said the annual fundraiser got a shot in the arm from last week's wins by Democrats – and candidates favoring stem-cell research: "It definitely has an extra little feeling of excitement. But this is always a really important night, and a really fun night for us."

Pollan also said she was "sort of floored" by Rush Limbaugh's accusation that Fox exaggerated his symptoms in a campaign ad."But having watched (Limbaugh) before, maybe not as surprised as maybe I would've hoped to have been. Actually, the first thing I thought was this is really going to turn on him – which it did."

Crow, who sang the Beatles' "Blackbird" and "Eight Days a Week," told PEOPLE, "I'm really here to celebrate what Michael J. Fox is doing and what he's done so far, and the great hope he's giving everyone."

She added, "I'm so lucky, because I am now a breast cancer survivor. Obviously only six months, but I believe that I'm cancer free. (In Michael) we're watching somebody who's really fighting for his life, and the fact that he's sharing that with us I think motivates the best part of all of us to really tap into the human spirit and feel that kind of empathy and want to do something about it."

On a personal note, Crow revealed, "I'm dating." Anyone we should know? "I always feel like it's no one anyone should ever know," she said, laughing. "I like to keep my secrets."

For his part, Fox was just excited to know he had some effect on politics. "In the last week of the election, when people are chucking garbage around and it's the most brutal part of the campaign, people were actually talking about stem cells," he said. "Whatever side they came down on was great by me, as long as they talked about it."

He added: "The attention was great. And we went into that conversation knowing that 70 percent of Americans support this research."

The night ended with an all-star jam session: Fox strapped on a guitar to join Crow, Costello, Rob Thomas and Leary on stage for the Beatles' "Revolution," "Back in the U.S.S.R." and "Twist and Shout."

And when it was all over, guests went home with a unique gift basket: A Beatles lunch box stuffed with goodies.

and some ppl still think axl's an asshole.....god i hope something happens on the 21st.

elmer

21st is in a week, can the album possibly be pushed out on the hush in such a short space of time(?).....at this stage I'd expect a sure date for a release this year and there aint that long in which case either........use your illusion and just hope or imagine

this was my first gnr show. I've been reading the posts on here and I was shocked that gnr took the stage at 11:05 p.m. not 11:45 p.m. or midnight like I've read. GNR played for over 2 hours, we finally left at 1:10 A.M.! Not sure what song gnr was playing when we left, but I could hear Paradise City as we walked out the door.

I really enjoyed them, even sebastian bach. My husband had to work late so we got to 1st mariner arena at 9:40 p.m. and the beer lady said he just came on. She said, "you haven't missed anything." I said "what about the suicide girls, did they play?" She said, "if you mean the strippers, yes they played."

the guards were not checking tix, once inside the arena. we were in 211 and we found better seats in section 207.

sebastian bach is very hubba hubba. I was never a skid row fan, but I recognized some of their songs last night.

civ_eng_girl

ok, so, i'm going to see the "GNR" show at the ACC in Toronto tomorrow....

now, can somebody tell me who it is i'm actually going to see there? i'm reading all this stuff about Sebastian Bach etc... i'm confused! LOL!

i thought Axl still sang with them?
