#1221 Re: Guns N' Roses » The Band To Take Questions From Various Forums » 897 weeks ago
Yeah, I never listened to it myself but wasn't Ron real vague when he was on Eddie Trunck's show after CD's release? Everyone thought at that point Axl didn't want him saying anything. Not sure why he was so vague there.
it's suspicious to me for ron to point out that axl gives him so much freedom and is misunderstood, like he is going out of his way to do so. i'm still convinced they are kept in the dark on what would be their business in a true band, which is ok because it isn't a true band any more.
#1222 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns N Roses planning Summer '09 tour? » 897 weeks ago
something's definitely off
my first thought was "stadium tour???? they would need a reunion and another act to do a stadium tour in the us."
that won't happen though.
i agree with axlin
it's probably only a few scattered u.s. dates

Yeah, Axl, you and what army?
Tommy's

Azoff says. “He is a good guy and often misunderstood"
classic - the last paragraph of everythnig officially from gnr always includes something defending axl.
"And contrary to one persistent online rumor, the band has absolutely no plans of playing Spain’s Kobetasonik Festival this June.)"
also classic - every time somone speaks officially on gnr's behalf it includes telling us what they don't have planned.
this pending tour is unfolding like the last ones:
from the hip and in almost complete secrecy
#1225 Re: Guns N' Roses » I was thinkin about... » 897 weeks ago
bls is correct
axl put his lyrics that he wrote about the shootings to bucket's music and it eventually became shackler's revenge

I also firmly believe that any hope that GNR are simply waiting for the Best Buy exclusive to be over is completely misplaced. I think no one is driving this thing and we've seen/heard the last.
No matter how much I wish it were different.
last i heard management was still on payroll. seems like an easy objective for the band to accept from mangement:
irving: "best buy is offering to buy 1 and half million copies up front for a six month exclusive deal including 1 video."
axl: "what do i have to do?"
irving: "nothing. when we decide to do the video we'll take whatever song we decide to go with and add the pre-existing live footage to it. when the 6 months is up we are free and that's when you gotta be ready to go back to work."
axl: "so what do i do for the next 6 months?"
irving: "do whatever you want. go back to being a wierd and lazy rich person."

i still beleieve all that is void and axl/gnr and the label are where they want to be.
best buy is the one that got screwed and axl/gnr are holding off on interviews, live shows, etc. til the 6 month exclusive is over. that's just smart business, really, unethical, but smart.
they do have to be careful about how they go about it. hence all the contradictions from different members regarding tours and videos. that's why there's brain talking about a summer tour, beta almost saying 'no, and axl in the middle saying the most while saying very little at all. for the same reasons there is a better video but it hasn't been released. axl promised best buy a video, it'll probably surface the final day of the 6th month. until then we get no real explanations .

What's funny about this whole thing is that Axl is actually really good and comes off real cool when he's interviewed by a real music journalist and even radio dj's. Matter of fact, he can win you over pretty well and be pretty damn charming in that situation. Hell, even in his chats with the fans he comes across good. That's why these set-up, faux-interviews make no sense to me. He comes off very, very badly, even when he's just answering a set of questions sent via e-mail, where he has time to construct his answers. He is real good off the cuff in real time and not having total control over everything. It's a shame. And pretty confusing.
I've never seen a bad Axl interview outside the Del interviews and that billboard interview recently.
i just don't think he trusts anyone any more.
#1230 Re: Guns N' Roses » Axl Rose Insists Original Guns N' Roses Lineup Is Dead and Buried » 897 weeks ago
yur probably right neemo but with all the layers on every other song on the album my hands are pretty well tied.
definitely avoid the late night gig with that song though
