SLASH Plays 'Sweet Child O' Mine' For The First Time In A Decade - Nov. 15, 2007
Last week, VELVET REVOLVER and GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Slash stopped by the Rock 'n Roll Fantasy Camp where he performed alongside the campers. While the campers will no doubt remember the experience for the rest of their lives, Slash was having some trouble remembering at the event. According to MTV News, he explained when he got nervous at the camp: "Only once tonight so far which was trying to remember the solo to 'Sweet Child O' Mine' cause I haven't played it since probably the last GUNS N' ROSES show and that was in 1996. You just don't go back and play your songs unless you're doing them in concert or for some particular reason like just now. Then watching the other guys playing it and they actually learned it from a record and all the sudden it got very surreal there for a second."
Hearing Slash play the track for the first time in over a decade wasn't the only surreal moment for campers, they also got to jam with the likes of Roger Daltrey, Jack Bruce, Joe Walsh and Vince Neil.

Gemini
There is more than one side to me... or so I've been told.
This is supposed to be about Geminis
Your most likeable trait: RESPONSIVENESS
People born under this sign are many sided, quick in thought and action, clever with words, skillful at handling others, brimful of new ideas.
Astrologers regard this third sign of the zodiac as the quintessentially human sign, for it seems to sum up qualities that are the distinguishing hallmarks of the human race'”intelligence (Gemini is an air sign), adaptability (Gemini is a mutable sign), and communicativeness (Gemini is ruled by Mercury).
Gemini people do not sit back and watch the scenery go by. As a Gemini, you are endlessly curious about everything and must be part of the busy passing scene. If all the world's a stage, Gemini must be the actor on that stage. Unlike Leo, who wants only to be the star, Gemini wants to play all the parts'”and be the director, the producer, and the stagehand!
Duality is your most famous trait. You usually want more than one of everything. That includes jobs, hobbies, careers, lovers. Basically your nature is restless, on the go, in quest of new ideas and fresh experiences. As a result, you often leave a trail of unfinished tasks. Your tendency is to fritter away energy on too many projects instead of concentrating your cleverness on one task.
Gemini is the sign of communication'”and its natives have an urgent and continual need to communicate. You enjoy writing notes, chatting with strangers, and the telephone is a major means of communication. People should learn not to give you their number if they aren't the kind who like to spend a lot of time on the phone!
Born with the gift of persuasion, you could sell ice in Greenland. Your quick mind can explain any action, defend any position, justify any course. A mental magpie, you pick up information here, gossip there, tidbits everywhere. This makes you an ideal conversationalist, for you know a little about everything. You also are inclined to have firm opinions on everything (subject to revision at a moment's notice).
A Gemini weakness is superficiality. Because you are so quick to grasp an idea or size up a situation, you tend to skim its surface, not bothering to explore it in any depth. The other side of the coin, however, is that with very little preparation you can make a marvelous initial impression.
Your facile gifts of writing, speaking, and self expression make you a success in dealing with the public. You have a quicksilver personality that can adapt to many kinds of people. You are often drawn to the stage and the dramatic arts. Among famous writers and performers born with the Sun in Gemini are Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Dashiell Hammett, Lillian Hellman, Laurence Olivier, Marilyn Monroe, and Judy Garland.
Amusing, versatile and witty, you are a wonderful friend who lifts people out of their doldrums. It's easy to see why you are usually surrounded by friends and admirers because you're such fun to be with. True, you can be impatient with persons who aren't as quick as you are, or who can't keep up with the rapid flow of your thought and speech. However, your natural exuberance sweeps even the most reluctant and surly along with you. In almost any situation you can be as charming as you want to be'”with a little extra thrown in.
Life is jest and all things show it; I thought so once and now I know it,
spells out the philosophy of Gemini. You don't waste time plumbing dark emotional depths. There is a brooding side to your Jekyll and Hyde disposition, but you don't let it dominate your lighthearted high spirits. You're too interested in fun and games.
Gemini's have a wide range of contacts and benefit from the advice and help of influential people. You will attract financial luck, but a tendency toward extravagance often more than offsets it. In your ledger, income always adds up to something a little short of outgo.
Routine and monotony are two things you dread and you will go to any lengths to avoid them. Change is your keyword, and what you value most is freedom. It's useless for anyone to try to pin you down. For you, the fun is in traveling, not in arriving at a destination. You love to explore new territory, see the way people live on the other side of the world. Inquisitive and imaginative, you are open to a different way of looking at things. Your trendy, up-to-date lifestyle has you constantly living off the fad of the land.
For the sheer fascination of it, people should have at least one Gemini in their lives (two might be exhausting).

Although I can understand why you posted it... the thread on HTGTH lasted a few minutes longer than predicted, but jarmo wasn't online.
HTGTH only allows threads that pertain to a band member's underwear or the type of sunglasses that they wear.
bba
So you think this guy is legit... ?

Please Baz, if you're going to release another cd, at least have the sense to get back with the band that made you famous. If you're not going to, just retire.
They fired him.
And I like his music...
#5620 Re: The Garden » Question about websites that show TV programs » 919 weeks ago
There are hordes of websites were you can stream hordes of US TV programs/Movies.
I don't bother with Digital over here anymore, because you can everything online within a day of its showing...
www.movieforumz.com (Download and find streams for TV programs, you don't have to sign up)
www.movieflix.com
www.free-tv-video-online.info
www.moviesfoundonline.com/movies.php
www.flickthat.com
www.veoh.com (You Have To Download Veoh Player To Watch All The Movies)
http://www.ssupload.com/ (Download and find streams for TV programs, you have to sign up)
http://www.watchfilms.com (Older Movies)
www.sidereel.com (I use this site alot when watching Heroes ect... Not all the shows have streams, just the ones that keep getting updated)
Then there is the youtube like sites, that can be a little relaxed on how long they take to remove something... (Not necessarily useful)
http://www.fnuz.com/ (This site is a search engine for streaming like google, just not as good)
^ These are just a few examples, if your looking for something in particular just say...
