#121 Re: Guns N' Roses » AXL goes AWOL » 865 weeks ago
wow. not surprised about his dissapeering act thats for sure. reunion would be nice and probably would give him much more acceptance but like i said in the other thread, what a waste. all that time only to release a new album and not promote or tour it ? get back with the old guys and tour but not really be able to play any of the new shit ? very strange and awkward. guess we'll have to see how this pans out. i haven't got a clue.

i dunno about bucket being the ultimate saviour to CD like some peopele claim...i still think hes too bizzare of a figure to have mass appeal
dont get me wrong he's a huge talent, an enigma, but he's just too weird for the the famous Joe and Jill Public to accept IMHO
after i watched rio 3 in 2001 i recognized the talent that bucket posessed but i did think he was way to weird to be a part of the band. obviously i still think he is odd to say the least but if he is not a part of this line up in the future it will not be right. the man does own cd and as more than one critic has pointed out he is the star of cd. hell axl may not look that weird or odd but he is one crazy fucker. i kinda think that a steady diet of bucket would eventually go over great. i could be wrong though.

There are certainly a lot of shots to take at Axl at this point, and many of them have some validity to them. Me, I'm truly happy to have a great album of new songs to listen to. As much as I love Appetite, I have been hungry for new, modern music from Axl and Co. for a long time now. No matter what happens from here on out, I'm glad the record was finally released. Having no press, no Bucket, etc. is far from ideal, but it will have to be enough.
don't get me wrong, i am happier than a pig on shit to have this album and in most ways it has at least met my expectations if not exceeded them. however, a long or perhaps even a permanant period of silence is a rotten thought.

if you are right bono and you may well be then i will say that this all was the biggest waste of a career, biggest waste of original gn'r, biggest waste of what could have been of new gn'r, biggest waste of everyones time. if they reunite ( original gn'r ) i don't see them playing any of these new songs live. what the fuck was this all for ? my god what a waste. as usual i'll hope for the best and what would probably make the most sense but instead i'll get the worst from this crazy fucker. damn. to quote axl himself, " some things didn't work so well. " you got that right.

i've never posted a topic before so be easy on me. i'm assuming that axl will tour at some point to promote the album. under that assumption i really hope bucket will be a part of it. i think they should do smaller venues without over charging until the album picks up steam. i know axl lies ( for lack of better words ) about alot of shit but at some point he said they would tour for a long time while the album is out and then drop a second and even a third album. i am hoping he performs on a letterman type show but what i really want to see is a vh1 storytellers. i think it would be an incredible way to talk about the album while performing the tunes that have been worked on for so long. of course it wouldn't be the same without buckethead so i'm really hoping the musical star of this album would be a part of it. lets face it, who wouldn't want to see buckethead on vh1 storytellers ? anyways, just like to see what you all think will happen in 2009 and beyond. not really what you hope will happen but what you could see happening. axl has been away for so long and has turned away so many people but i truely believe there are ways to repare his image while making this new gn'r more relevant. thanks and i look foward to seeing what you have to write.
#126 Re: Guns N' Roses » Thoughts On "Excuses" » 865 weeks ago
i do believe axl and the gn'r camp are always full of excuses but not me. at first i thought that cd would outdo kanye but it makes perfest sence that it will not. i wish i didn't like axl so much sometimes. i am one of the biggest axl fans out there and even i feel uncomfortable refering to this as gn'r. so much time has passed and the fans that fell in love with appetite are my age or older. not exactly the album buyers. i happen to love cd but it has no super catchy single. not even " better. " no doubt u2, metallica, ac/dc, kanye and many, many others would have outdone this album if it went head to head. all things considering number 2 or 3 isn't so bad i guess. i wasn't expecting huge sales but i was hoping.
#127 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chinese Democracy UNDER 300,000 copies sold first week? » 866 weeks ago
pretty sure the superbowl is having bruce springsteen. they've been playing it safe since janet jackson. always thought that since welcome to the jungle has become such a sports anthem over the years that it would be great to have axl do the superbowl.
#128 Re: Guns N' Roses » Surprise appearance at the AMA's? » 867 weeks ago
