I love Bowie's works, but Scott is not the young David. I'm not a huge STP fan, but he was a much better writer back then. In VR he wrote the worst cock rock shit this century has heard, sang in half of the old Ozzy's vocal range and acted like an Axl Rose 2. Scott Weiland is Robin Finck as a singer. Nuff said.
I do respect your opinion though. But you'll never convince me that he can sing or anything unique. Never. Not the Izzy/Duff low-level part-time singer, but quite average, light years from the Freddie/Axl/Bowie zone.

Well, when someone doesn't go on stage until he gets his beef, it's not far-fetched to think he'd cause a riot without getting the name.
BTW what would have happened if Slash or Duff had died? The wives, Renee and Linda would have become Guns N' Roses? Please.
I know that Duff, for whatever reasons, became an Axl-apologist (long way from the law suits he wanted to start and the 'Axl didn't write anything..ooops, I really like My World' comment), but first of all, nobody would sign away those rights without a penny, second, if they were so drugged-up that didn't know what they sign (what some forum members suggest sometimes), then it wasn't a friendly move by the Axl camp, not to mention that it would not have been lawful.
Anyway, Axl showed who he is, when he left Guns N' Roses and started a new band with the same name, inviting his ex-partners to be his employees. This was the dirtiest move in the history of GN'R, and possibly in the entire history of rock music.

I think the next thing we'll see is a Euro tour.
This. Axl would do anything, just to avoid working on the 'new' album. That would tank even worse than CD - and he can earn much more with a Europen cash grab tour than with any new record. They'll try to capitalize on the RRHOF introduction.

You're crazy. She Mine is barely listenable.
Tastes and opinions differ. I find Shackler unlistenable.
#1007 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Chinese Democracy vs. Libertad, Round VI » 775 weeks ago
Shackler's without an ounce of doubt.
It's one of the worst GN'R songs ever released, with a shitty hair metal chorus. God, I hate that.
She Mine on the other hand is a groovy, sexy song, one of my favourites from VR. One of the few I still listen. Duff did a pretty good work.

No Scott, please. One thing is that his voice is very limited. Other that he can't come up with memorable melodies in most of the cases, writes shitty lyrics, but hey, he cannot even sing his own stuff properly. His utter-garbage interpretation of the songs really hurt the band's shows. I cannot even listen VR live now, cause Scott is off in 99% of the performances.

Good to see that despite whatever problems and issues they have had they can still be adult about the whole thing......hopefully the same thing can happen with that other pathetic schoolyard feud that's been childishly going on for years.
Yeah, I hope this is a message (to Axl?) and not some real plan for a permamant reunion.
#1010 Re: Guns N' Roses » The Tommy Stinson Thread » 775 weeks ago
Axl aside,
Record companies in general are run by morons who can't be arsed to listen through the albums they are supposed to publish / represent.
Read Lemmy's biography for a rundown on the crap he's had to put up with.
Record company leaders may be morons. It's sure that their line of thinking is different from the artists'.
But. There is only one band on Earth that can't finish and release an album. An egomaniac, pseudo-perfectionist, hysterical, lazy rockstar, living in an alternate universe surronded by yes-men, may play a part in this.
