Re: Fortus twitter chat
Richard tweeted with some fans for a bit the other night and GypsySoul was kind enough to transcribe over on HTGTH. It's still a little confusing to follow, such is twitter. I found some of the stuff interesting (well 2 things at least, Estranged and Crucify the Dead talk) and Neemo asked for it, so here it is. (Note - Richard's responses in BOLD)
[Richard] In Panama. Went on a jungle trek today. Saw monkeys, sloths, toucans, a tapir, iguanas, and an owl. Kayak'd back to the hotel.
@richardfortus omg come back to quito i love youuuu
@MikaHeartRS i loved Quito! I'd love to go back..... SOON!
@richardortus Did you saw the huge flag ?
@ticolespaul of course i saw the flag! hard to miss!
@richardfortus Thanks dude ! Did you read ? Was me and @jubittz !! We did this!! Was so hard to make !!
@richardfortus .... What the fuck, you tweet?
@EverythingZen therefor, i am
@richardfortus Yeah, you're a tweet. That's how this works.
@richardfortus The show (Rio de Janeiro) was wonderful! Congratulations! You're very sexy haha..
@tati__carvalhoo thanks! You aren't so bad yourself!
@richardfortus Any chance of a Van Halen cover during the Panama show?
@ComaCulture a bit obvious, don't you think? I'm sure Ron will do it
@richardfortus Obvious? Maybe... Potentially awesome? Of course!
@richardfortus Thank YOU to make our dream come true !! We love you so much !!! We hope to see you as soon as possible!!
@richardfortus and that version for 007 its FUCKIN' AWESOME !!! I'm glad that all of you read !! Have a G' show on Panama ! Love you !
@ticolespaul well.... thanks!
@richardfortus Sloths are so rock n' roll.
@Lizwontcry not many people know this, but Sebastian Bach is a sloth. It's a secret, so don't tell anyone! http://tweetphoto.com/17567311
@richardfortus Wow! I have always believed there was something not right about the guy.
@richardfortus ESTRANGED, you know everyone wants to hear it, right? I'm just sayin'.
@EverythingZen I'm so down! Just gotta get the man onboard with that one. IMO, the quintessential Guns track
@richardfortus So the man knows that everyone wants to hear it, right?
@EverythingZen the man knows all
@richardfortus Richard,you playing the guitar 007 is the best damn thing that has the incredible show of Brazil,I went and saw beautiful too
@PedroGNR thanks! I can't tell you what an amazing experience South America has been for us. thanks to all
@RichardFortus Any inclination to pick Slash's solo album?....not trying to be a douche but just wondering!
@Omar291 i'm sure i'll listen at some point. I read some of the lyrics ...... ouch! I'm sure the record has some great stuff
@richardfortus I'm assuming you are referring to the Ozz song? Yeah Ozzy was a rather harsh on the red headed one!
@RichardFortus BTW being a guitarist I MUST ask. A ) fav piece of gear and B ) fav song to play live?
@Omar291 favorite piece of gear? DOn't know where to even start. Just bought a '66 candy apple red strat and a 50's Supro lap steel this wk
@richardfortus I wish I could drop money on those! bet the '66 plays like a dream those early strats seem to just play themselves
@Omar291 i have a '60 slab board that is my favorite strat. i have a bunch of photos of some of my gtrs on my website
@RichardFortus you should try to get your account verified before people start accusing you of being a fake lol!
@Omar291 how does one go about "verification"?
@richardfortus I know some people make a youtube video or take a picture with their acct name and end it to @twitter.
@RichardFortus or you can use http://www.crederity.com/twitter.html , which has helped celebs verify with their personal info and its legit
@richardfortus here man use this form tell them you are the guitarist in guns , http://twitter.com/account/verify_request
@Omar291 thanks bro, i'm on it now
@richardfortus I think you can do the whole account verification thing here http://bit.ly/gL5rv
@ComaCulture thanks, i'm trying to verify now. I had a huge issue a while back with some asshole that was impersonating me on FB
@richardfortus No probs! Yeah, the 'net does have an abundance of idiots on it who get off on that kinda stuff... have a good show man!
@richardfortus Your people have to contact Twitter's people.
@EverythingZen ummmmm, but i don't HAVE people!
@richardfortus Plus you have to be important enough.
@EverythingZen guess i'm out. Damn, wish i had people!
@richardfortus Then you can't get verified. It's totally cool, it's just that you're a commoner. But we all are.
@richardfortus u have to listen to crucify the dead its about axl i swear!
@MikaHeartRS "A loaded gun jammed by a rose". Really you think it's about Axl?
@richardfortus naaahhh what do ya think ofcourse! the whole song screams axl's name btw im lovin that u reply to fans 
@MikaHeartRS yeah, very unfortunate lyrics, no matter whom they were written about
@richardfortus true very true, axls gonna be pissed when he hears of that song
@MikaHeartRS I doubt it, he'll probably laugh as much as I did.
@richardfortus how close was i? http://tweetphoto.com/17569381
@MikaHeartRS any closer and we would be related!
@richardfortus haha i wish!!! u smiled and waved at me aswell and i was fraking out hehe
@richardfortus haha i loved you! sorry for confusing u with bumvlefoot tho thanks for comin out of the van to sign my pic at the airport!
@MikaHeartRS ohhh, that was YOU?!
@richardfortus haha ok but dont be pissed off at me!
@MikaHeartRS oh yeah, first time that's happened. Guess i won't be speaking to YOU anymore!
[Richard] ok, nice chatting with y'all. I gotta go help DJ paint his toe nails for the show. soon speak, my friends!
@richardfortus richard what time the show starts??
@GabrielToscano haha, that's a good one! Gotta run, speak to you guys soon
Re: Fortus twitter chat
@richardfortus is from the person asking him the question. Their name @(omar, for example) is Richard's response to them.
"ok, nice chatting with y'all. I gotta go help DJ paint his toe nails for the show. soon speak, my friends!"
Richard goes up a few notches in my book 
I think Crucify The Dead was a topic of discussion within GNR...
And I would love to hear Estranged live again.

Yeah, I wonder if Axl will sound off about "Crucify The Dead" as it appears it's been discussed. I hope not. Just leave it alone Axl. We don't need Sharon Osbourne screaming about you.
"Estranged" would be great to hear and Ron does play 5 seconds of it in his solo , so you never know.

Re: Fortus twitter chat
Hahaha, that's awesome! I've always loved Fortus. Definitely my fav since Robin left. I have half a mind to tweet him and ask what he has against his guitars to beat the shit out of them like he does.
