« on: January 07, 2011, 05:55:03 AM »

From Stinson's Facebook page;

I'm playing 3 solo shows in February!

Thurs., Feb. 17 - Arlington, VA at IOTA w/ Mike Gent (The Figgs)
Sat., Feb. 19 - New York, NY at City Winery w/ Jesse Malin

Goddammit! I really wanna go to the one in VA :'(

Fuck you, whore.

Johan is not nuts. At least not anymore nuts than the rest of us. He is ruled by his own psychology, which includes jealousy that he cannot sing that high.

It's not fair. I wish he was big enough to come down under for a few shows. You going to see him Morgan!?!? Tell me the ' :'( ' isn't indicative of a no :paranoid:

We only get the biggest of bands normally. :'(

From a Guns' perspective this is very good news (and not just because there's an opportunity to see Tommy). Every band member are confining any solo arrangements to early 2011 (Jan. to Feb.). This obviously suggests Guns will be returning to action sometime shortly after.

I wish! But highly doubtful. It's not extremely far away, so I'm really considering asking about it, and I couldn't imagine tickets being too much money. So I'm going to give it a shot

We get shit compared to everyone else! :'(

Please no. As much as seing Tommy live as a solo artist would be cool (and I hope the opportunity arises after Guns conclude the World Tour), I'd much rather hear the announcement of Guns hitting the States. Tommy announcing a full blown touring schedule would suggest the possibilites of the GN'R tour being sustained are slim.

Tommy on his website:
Quote
My Peoples,

It’s been too long since I updated this site. As of late I have been totally consumed with moving from Pennsylvania to New York state and rehearsing for upcoming shows in Arlington, Philly, New York, and Boston.

I didn’t even know why I said yes to the first show in NYC until I started putting a set together — then it felt like something I needed to do. I decided it had been way too long since I got out and played some of my own songs, even stripped-down, as these shows will be. These four shows will be just me, an acoustic guitar, a fiancée (Emily Roberts), with special guests/friends to play different shows. I will have a Figg (Mike Gent) in 3 of four cities, an uncle in-law (Chip Roberts), and a George Manney in Philly, and a Frank Ferrer in NYC. Should be a fun trip. Well, at least for me (hopefully).

I have been touring with GnR and Soul Asylum for so much of the last 4 years, that I nearly forgot I had amassed enough new material for a new record. So here goes — my first little romp through the tulips before putting out a new record. Gonna see how they stand up, or fall to pieces. Here are the dates and the cities and venues. Hope to see you there!

Man, I would love to live in New York now.

His solo gigs are going to be amazing :bow:
