It's been a bit quiet here in the GN'R section, just keeping everyone up to date with shows they're playing, so we can all continue bitching about set lists and how bad Axl sounds...

You raise a valid point monkey, as it's easy for casual concert-goers to forget the grim realities of consistent touring.
At this moment in time, I am absolutely balls to the wall, touring with Loaded, as well as doing a book tour over here in the UK.
Typical day: Wake up in bus on ferry being tossed violently in Irish Sea. Get out of bunk to find that the bus power is off. That means? No coffee. No internet. No light, and NO going above decks as the door going upstairs are locked during the voyage.
Arrive at dock in Belfast, where car from U.K. publishing company is waiting to take me to HMV store for book signing (still no coffee). LOTS of people there. I get coffee.Then to sound check, where we run through stuff that needs a running through. Eat. Can't forget to do THAT!
Call home.
Play rock show, and do meet and great type of thingy afterwards. Go to sleep.
Repeat all of this for next 9 straight days.
Day off (well, this "day off," actually turned into a flight to Santiago, Chile from London).
Repeat above steps for following 10 days.
Day off (THIS "day off' is a flight back to Germany from Sau Paulo, Brazil)
Tour with Motorhead in Germany for remainder of November.

Ouch...yeah that's the kind of thing. The transport side of it would have to get old. I was thinking the same thing looking at Del James and Jarmo recently - on one hand they have an awesome job I'd kill for, at the same time, I look at them and think "this is night 50 across the other side of the world from your family" and so on.
I remember reading slash's schedule once and thinking
