^ The problem with that is from rumblings in the past as well as some of those emails on the list, I don't think Axl can afford to just say fuck it all and walk away for good.

It's a shame that despite running everything his way since about 1993 he still seems so troubled and angry.  You would have hoped he might have found some inner peace as he's got older and done things his way.

The whole animosity thing towards Slash, the regular quitting on a whim, the firing/revolving door of business people and musicians.  Seems he really is struggling to find whatever it is he is looking for.

I have to say though I really have wondered if he has surrounded himself with people that actually help him or whether they simply drive and feed his paranoia.  I say this because I would have thought we might have seen some sort of personal development with him over the years, yet he still appears to be that same angry and messed up kid that just hopped off the greyhound bus.

He is a fantastic artist and I would love to see him succeed and function going forward.  Whether that be NuGNR, Original GNR or as a solo artist.  But unfortunately I can't see what is going to change and therefore make the current situation and modus operandi any different going forward.

Maybe if shit like this does leak it's the chance to clean out the closet once and for all and start with a clean slate.  I mean what could be so bad, We know he threatens to throw in the towel quite often (he's always done this), he doesn't like or he wants to sue or sack band members from time to time (nothing new there).  He thinks everyone from industry people to old friends are against him or wanna see him fail (everybody is Out Ta Get Me). He thinks Slash is a cancer and Duff is spineless, again no great revelations there. 

He's human, he has his failings just like all of us.  Maybe if this shit gets out in the open it might help him deal with it and then finally put a whole lot of it to rest so he can move forward in a more positive manner.

And there you have the list of songs that MSL quoted as having received.  I'm sure he never got any songs other than the Better mix that was on that email list.

He probably threw that out there as bait to see what he could get.

Shame 3 years on there is no second album

There's actually a few things in there I would like to read, e.g. the Robin resignation letter.  I also really would like to know exactly why Axl believes Slash is bascially seated at the right hand of the devil.  The book therefore would be very good for Axl's perspective of GNR history, particularly the breakup.

Also like to hear his blunt opinions on a reunion.  Sure we have heard the "press release" style version as to it never happening.  But I'm sure it's come close in the past and will again at some point in the future, so I would be curious as to what Axl's "terms" are for one.  As I am sure he has some.

As for shit like what the band members get paid, profit and loss statements etc etc, I honestly don't give a toss.  Although there does seem to be quite a lot of people chasing money presumably owed to them.  Those private shows obviously were a cash flow necessity.  I don't blame him they they would be a good way to earn some extra cash to help pay the bills.  God knows I'm sure there is enough people with their hands in the GNR honey pot.

His thoughts on VR could be entertaining too.

Yeah I gotta admit I never understood the whole gun culture thing. I'm glad the gun controls here in Oz are quite strict.
