Why is Chuck D talking now?

It's great seeing that shot of Adler looking genuinely happy drumming that song.

Ugh. Can't stand Miles voice on this song.
#1164 Re: Guns N' Roses » RRHoF Discussion (Izzy/Slash/Axl Press Statements) » 760 weeks ago
Actually with the audio/vocals being kinda shitty means I can't hear Myles all that well. So it works out in a weird way.

Loved that the guys thanked Zutaut.

I wished they switched to the video for this. Billy Joe's voice is kinda soft and it's hard to make out all the words.

Matt still looks like a douche though.
I think Gilby has aged pretty well. Matt doesn't look too bad for his age and I like the short hair.
Duff looks gaunt as you stated. I don't think he has aged that well. Slash just looks like he's gotten a little fatter.
It's funny how both of the drummers were the only 2 to challenge (not put up with Axl's habits) back in the era of classic gnr.

Izzy probably won't show. Slash will probably perform with Miles Kennedy who is going to Cleveland.

I think he's one of the best songwriters of all time, but that doesn't mean he should be running a multinational brand like GNR. Frankly he doesn't have the business education, or the stability of emotion to do so. I'd like to see him forget about the law suits and the running of the company and go back to being what he really is - an amazing artist. And that could happen with whoever he works with - as soon as he accepts he shouldn't be in total control of every decision.
So it comes down to this, sure I respect Axl's integrity and strength of character, but I think for a lot of people it comes down to the fact that it's been obvious for decades that he's in the WRONG when it comes to the idea that GNR was ever only about him or that he should be the one to make the business decisions.
Great post. Yeah, his biggest problems from the original breakup are that he doesn't have anyone to deal with the business side of things. Most of his managers either have zero experience in dealing with the business side of things or are just plain yes men. The one guy who knew what he was doing managed to get Axl to release an album. I'm not asking for Azoff to come back but I'm just pointing it out. A real manager would have just got up in his face in the late 1990s-early 2000s and told him to stop wasting money on booking studio time if he wasn't going to show up and record.
On the recording side of things, I think he needs someone to motivate him to work on a daily or weekly basis. I don't know whether or not it's a musician or an assistant who just needs to tell him this--get your ass in the studio and record something.
Well have a look on the facbook
most thing they get a couple hundred comment last update 3640 comment and 95% are bad real bad and not one liners paragrahs
Yup, I saw that yesterday and it was like 2,600 comments or so. Most of those people aren't happy at all. It sounds like half (probably more) are casual fans.

Pirates are looking to be a fluke in the first half last year, and I can't see them spending alot of money, nor holding on to McCutchen too much longer. Cubs might flirt around 4th place, but more than likely will be a 90+ loss team easily. Look for the Cubbies to try to move Soriano, Dempster, Wood, and whoever else they can possibly exchange for prospects come mid-season
They actually resigned McCutchen to a long term deal. So I don't think he's going anywhere just yet. I don't trust the GM to get a good return so it's probably better that he stays put. What's actually killing them is that Pedro Alvarez is turning into a gigantic disappointment. He's the only guy outside of McCutchen (who probably only has 25-30 hr power) who is a legitimate power threat in the lineup. It makes me wish they had drafted Eric Hosmer instead.
On the Cubs, I think Garza is still the guy who'll probably get the best prospects. The issue is whether or not they should trade him. I believe he is signed through next year. The Cubs don't really have MLB ready pitchers in the minors. FA has Cole Hamels and Zach Greinke. I suspect they'll probably be outbid for Hamels. Greinke may or may not want to play in a big market. But the Cubs need top end prospects (even if at the A+ ball level) in the worst way, especially at 3b.
