#1361 Re: Guns N' Roses » GNR security guard on " Free Beer and hot wings" » 716 weeks ago
he is a nut...just watched the Coma vid for the first time in a long time....holy fuckin shit....Slash is f'n awesome...Ax is awesome as well but runs out of gas at the end. However, that is to be expected as that has to be the hardest Gnr song to sing EVER....hands down. Bad ass vid and a bad ass band. I think ol Buzz was there...
I completely agree. I don't even think the guy is a spoiled diva anymore, I think he's just fuckin' crazy. Which is pretty much what the world knew in 1992.
You're right about that vid and others. I recently bought a smart phone for the first time, and some dude talked about some shittastic emo-post-grunge band and talked about how tight they were.
I opened up the voice thingy, and went on YouTube and said, "Guns N Roses, Ritz 88, Paradise"
Opened the video and shoved it in his face. I said "THAT was a fuckin' band". Dude was blown away, then started searching more stuff for Guns. Young dude.
#1362 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » SLASH 'Wasn't Disappointed' By AXL ROSE's Decision To Skip RnRHoF » 716 weeks ago
I don't think that's a comment on the quality of CD. I think it boils down to the album should've been out by 2002 at the latest, and properly promoted. With those ingredients, and the GN'R brand name, I have no doubt it would've down as good as Contraband.
Obviously Slash gets the win, but CD's musical direction is not really what the issue was here, even if I TOTALLY AGREE that a classic GN'R rock sound and presentation was what the world wanted. They wanted a sequel to GN'R, not a reboot. Axl's circus reboot was just too much to swallow, even if the music was damn good. I still say Chinese is the Halloween III of the GN'R world.

Did it make a comeback? Years ago the spread between 360 & PS3 was FAR broader with PS3 far behind.
#1364 Re: The Sunset Strip » The Walking Dead » 716 weeks ago
I thought it was the best episode since the show came back, if not the entire season.
I love the new Daryl/Merle tag team and the tension between them. Easily the best thing on the screen now. And as I said before, I am completely sick of Rick.
#1365 Re: The Sunset Strip » JJ Abrams to direct Star Wars Episode VII » 716 weeks ago
I will admit in some ways, it works with things like The Expendables, because A) Stallone & co. play up the fact they are fossils, and B) it's a bunch of old guys kicking the shit out of old guys.
So if you're into that, go for it.
The problem with things like Die Hard 5, or Conan III (which is supposed to be torch-passing), and sending out another Rambo with those guys in comparison to Star Wars is it's utterly ridiculous to see them, and believe they are doing this stuff at that age.
One thing I haven't seen is an actor willing to make fun of himself to make a point. I think that's a great concept. Think Hamill in the new Star Wars, and his force is rusty. So everytime he tries to do vintage Luke stuff, they play up to the audience an old cool move Luke did, and then just have his old ass bust his ass, every single time, and then lead up to a big finish where he actually accomplishes a throwback move as an old man in the role.
I think that's a great idea personally. It tricks the audience, and leaves you guessing, yet is realistic.

Haha, that's great.
#1367 Re: Guns N' Roses » What do you pay for GNR shows in the USA? » 716 weeks ago
I never understood why rock shows aren't priced more like they were 20-30 years ago.
It isn't like that much as changed, other than pyro.
#1368 Re: The Sunset Strip » JJ Abrams to direct Star Wars Episode VII » 716 weeks ago
Whoa whoa, that's what I meant. I want them STILL kicking ass... but I want it to be a torch-passing deal.
I want them as supporting characters. Think Bobby & J.R. in the new Dallas. There, but NOT the stars of the show anymore. That kinda thing for Hamill & Ford.
#1369 Re: Guns N' Roses » GNR played Acoustic gig for Tommy Hilfiger in CA » 716 weeks ago
I agree, but it doesn't help when you have bandmates (Tommy, *cough cough*) up there telling him he sounds "great", when even Axl himself knows he sounds like utter shit.
He needs someone to be objective with him. But at the same time i'm not Axl, and there's times I sound great and spot on, and there's other times no matter what I do I sound like utter crap, the throat seizes up, it's very painful, and suddenly you go Mickey Mouse just to try to get through the song.
#1370 Re: The Sunset Strip » JJ Abrams to direct Star Wars Episode VII » 716 weeks ago
I would love nothing more than to Hamill & Ford, like aged and older sci-fi world Riggs & Murtaugh kicking ass.
Fisher... meh.
