y'don't make business decisions on the basis of music. if the music's good enough people will get it, rather than trying to get people by making music they want.if you're treating it as a business you don't record & release OIAM.
that IS GnR. doing what you want in spite of the better judgement of others' wishes & fuck the consequences.
that's what he needs to get back to. instead of playing the suit & this bizness shit which so fascinates axlin & others. that shit is meaningless, OIAM is forever.Axl doesn't have that band with him anymore. He was too pussy to keep them around.
So I still don't think you're point applies still. The cast of characters he has right now is BUILT for commercialism. Sorry, but it is what it is. I don't really like it all that much either, but i'd rather have SOME kind of GN'R, than none. I personally would prefer a GN'R with Axl Rose, Buckethead (no Robin or anyone else), Izzy Stradlin, Tommy Stinson, Frank Ferrer & Dizzy Reed releasing an album every two years, that's Praxis meets Nirvana meets Guns meets Stones meets Replacements. That's what music would be to me. But i'm not getting that.
Actually, you are not getting anything!
I''ll get nothing and like it.
Actually I don't.
I'm enjoying cranking the fuck out of that new Nirvana track, still soaking up Soundgarden's return, and looking forward to new AIC next week. I enjoyed new Cult earlier this year.
THAT is how I keep my sanity. Real music, by real artists, who keep the real bands alive and have real credibility. It stableizes me.
Look at that McCartney/Nirvana deal. They fucking SLAMMED IT OUT OF THE PARK at 12-12-12, and it sounded like the art of noise/noise of art that Nirvana was famous for. First time playing it live, and they owned it.
THAT is rock n' roll to me. Cornell letting Kim fuck around on guitar on Letterman, playing an off-track like Rowing on the internet... that is rock to me.
What happened to this band's credibility? What happened to Axl's?

This is so boring. I really wish Pamela would wake the fuck up and would find Slash, Duff and Izzy in GN'R again. Frank could stay, I don't give a shit.
I know it's beyond gay at this point. Only with Faux N' Roses would this much drama exist at a fucking tribute band playing covers.
I enjoy THE MUSIC
The band with attitude ceased existing in 1993, and probably more like 1991 post-St. Louie.
It's so fucking lame, the whole perfectionism thing. This fucking band sounded like FUCKING DOG SHIT at Ritz '88. Not THIS band, the real one. And they were fucking awesome.
Axl Rose forgets who he fucking was and it's so sad. Sadly it's rubbed on Tommy Stinson. He used to be cool too.

I think it's funny this is U.S. attendence, and how many of those bands aren't even American-born bands.
#1634 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » ADLER: Debut Album Details Revealed » 725 weeks ago
D, you cannot deny his talent, he smokes Ashba and likely Fortus.
I agree. The dude rules, Maybe not against Fortus, but based on what i've heard, he's a far more capable guitarist for the GN'R sound than DJ.
Although in fairness, Richard Fortus is GNR's rhythm player. Other than the occasional three-man solos, Richard has never really been given the chance he was originally supposed to have to be GNR's lead guitarist, which he'd be far more capable of. Based on what we've heard, Richard has the closest tone and feel to Slash of anyone of the new Guns.
#1635 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Slash Mention on Howard Stern » 725 weeks ago
So recapping....
Slash is a cunt for not wanting to answer questions about Axl in the press.
But when Slash wants a reunion - he's a cunt because he can't expect Axl to forgive him when he keeps talking shit about him in the press.
Pretty much.
And I say the same thing for Axl when he brings up Slash and/or 'possibly' gets pissed if and when Slash gets brought up to him (most people are scared to talk about Slash to Axl because of his nature and rarity of giving interviews).
If Axl were to get pissed because someone brought up, "what do you think of Slash's November Rain solo today"
I'd say FUCK YOU AXL. Slash will always be brought up on some level. Axl was the douche turd that decided to secure the band name and keep playing Slash's songs without him.
It works both ways. Just today Slash was the fucking moron. ESPECIALLY going on Stern, whom he knows pushes it.
Hell Bubba The Love Sponge had the sex scandal with Hulk Hogan, and Howard is BUDDIES with Bubba, and Howard fucking GRILLED Bubba, asking him all kinds of personal questions, and Howard let Robin basically call Bubba a 'flip flopper' and basically a Double Talking Jive Mother Fucker for being buddies with Hogan, than all of the suddenly talk about how much of an asshole Hogan is/was.
That's how Howard treats his FRIENDS. What in the fucking hell did Slash expect? He knows Stern is a HUGE GN'R mark.

Coldplay will always suck.
That entire show kicked ass, but I took "work breaks" during Alicia Keys, Kanye West & Chris Martin.
Yeah that's right, i'd rather WORK than sit on my ass listening to them. Alicia is okay though...
#1637 Re: The Sunset Strip » McCartney to Front Nirvana Reunion TONIGHT- NEW SONG » 725 weeks ago
No, Dave labeled everything by the full artists. So it's labeled as "Paul McCartney, Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, Pat Smear.
However, there's a catch...
When the song is uploaded and the tagged info plays during the song...
The composer is listed as -- N
Nirvana ?
So they definitely toyed with it. I assume Dave, Krist & Pat were the ones that put it together after Paul recorded his part, and that's pretty much a Nirvana collab in post production.

#1639 Re: The Garden » Elementary School Shooting in US » 725 weeks ago
This guy killed 20 kids, at close range with HANDGUNS.
He could've did the same thing with a machete.
If anything this incident has actually re-inforced gun control is a silly battle. First it was ASSAULT RIFLES in Aurora. Then everyone found out it was a semi-auto. Suddenly their argument got negated, and they shut up.
The unconscious mind and catching the signs is what we need to get better at. I refuse to believe there were not warning signs with this psycho. He should've never had access to a gun. Taking the gun away from him is not the problem.
And that's all i'm going to say on this subject out of respect for those babies.
One more thing, and then i'll be nice...
FUCK YOU Mike Huckabee. FUCK YOU YOU PATHETIC FUCKING PRICK. Using this incident to try to make some sort of political statement to get your fucking Baptist doctrine cock sucking agenda in the press about "more God in schools would've solved this".
FUCK YOU
*end rant and back to memorial*
#1640 Re: The Garden » Nurse commits suicide after royal prank call » 725 weeks ago
Meh, Darwinism
I don't see it quite that way. It runs far deeper than that. I would probably lean more to "balance". Like the planets aligning themselves.
Some people just... don't fucking like the world. You suck. People assume living is a great thing, some people just don't see it as all that big of a deal, and that's something 99.9999998% of people will never get.
I feel very sorry for her, but I do not under any circumstances blame the DJ's for what they did. It actually in a weird way... might be the most successful prank call of all time. So no fault on them.
