why 1993? why not when adler left? or izzy (the main songwriter of old gnr)?
what happened in 1993?
the opinions are getting very similar to mygnr and htgth here nowadays LOL.
Adler was never a contributing force in the band.
The bulk of the band was still a band, the same ones who did AFD, Lies, the Illusions & TSI were kickin' in '93. Hell even Izzy did a few shows subbing for Gilby.
The 'band' died in 1993, back when the final show happened in Buenos Aires.
Even though the agreement basically made them employees in 1991, they still had equal shares in the partnership. Somesthing that I could not imagine anyone from the new band has any part of.
They are probably paid for their work in studio and on tour, like salaried employees, but full ownership on every level is W. Axl Rose.
I think the people here who read my posts on a daily basis, know how much I love the new band and want them to succeed. But there's nothing about new GN'R that comes across as a band. Just like nothing with NIN feels like a 'band'.

.
you calling him a douchebag proved my point
the gnr community are the ones acting like jerks... he never bragged like the gnr community lied (started by the jarmo type propaganda machines), he just said im a huge gnr fan, here are the leaks, download it from my site, so he got interviewed and he just told how it happened....i dont see how you can say he should rot in jail and shot dead because hes terrorist now? while listening to the leaks even....:haha:
besides, i have seen more bragging by nobodys on gnr forums about BS than any leaker ever has done. again, and they are the same ones sending mass pms to everyone begging for leaks. i had about 90 pms so far, most are from htgth and mygnr members (their nicknames show)..the same guys who are allegedly against leaks and leakers on those forums.
gnr community is filled with hypocrites and it is amusing to see actually
No it's not hypocritcal at all. If I had been the one to get possession of those leaks, they would've NEVER seen the light of day, I would've never even thought about uping it.
That's where I think it's okay to say the guy got whatever it coming to him. He uploaded them for GLORY, not because he's a cool guy. His fate, and whether he's a douche bag, doesn't concern what WE did. It concerns what HE did. If he had stayed low and downplayed it like an MSL, I would've defended him 'til my throat was sore, and how uncool it was for this to happen.
My opinions on him are based solely on his attitude post-leak. He wanted attention. Now he's got it, from Flowers By Irene.

I really hope it's not something to turn around and cry about global warming. Seriously.
The global temperature last year was the lowest it's been in 10 years. Global warming is no different than Sars, Y2K... hell traced all the way back to the Peace & Love Party.
It's a commercial entity designed to sell dupes like Al Gore into spending money on tapes & T-shirts. It's a racket.
I just hope Obama doesn't go all Nancy Pelosi on us with energy. If that happens i'll want to impeach the bastard.

They will always ask about reunion.
People have a facisnation with past happy memories. They want that band to make a comeback. What they don't understand is even if the old band had stayed together, they'd be nothing of what they were in 1988. Maybe 1992, but not '88.
#16735 Re: The Garden » Obama considers new Energy Security Council » 939 weeks ago
Read that entire article, and it didn't say a damn thing of what they'd do.
*shrugs shoulders* (umm okay)
#16736 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chinese Democracy Liner Note Discussions *EXTREME SPOILERS* » 939 weeks ago
It's never been a band.
Guns N' Roses the band ended July 1993.
Guns N' Roses the musical entity continues today.

As for the leaks. This is someone who is purposely getting revenge on fans. It's someone from the GN'R camp. Only a complete loser, who hates GN'R, would follow all of this bullshit, JUST to get back at fans.
Whoever is doing this, knows the score, and deep down, I always expected some sort of 'revenge' from GN'R for the leaks. Either way, it doesn't matter, i'll be buying the album in a couple weeks, and i'll smile afterwards. I've waited for this day for a long time.

That's the beauty of art though...people can look at (or listen to) the same piece of art and see (hear) completely different things.
Sure, but there can still be some objectivity to it. I don't know about you and your alignment, but the impression I've gotten is that those most disappointed with the album are the 'classic rock group'. Meaning they have more a problem with the type of music being played than the quality of it.
Not really. I listen a lot of music from NIN remixes and 60s & 70s bands to stoner bands, Dream Theater, BLS, BH, Diana Krall, Nick Cave, Tori Amos, Björk, old blues, grunge... But most of the new music is just not doing it for me. I love Axl's lyrics, love most of his melodies, but the music lacks the quality in most cases. My opinion is based on the leaks.
I don't think anything new GN'R has done is as complex as Dream Theater, and I do agree songs like Coma, Locomotive & Estranged are more complex, but I think alot of the new GN'R, ballads at least, have a real feel of Dream Theater. Some of their simpler, maybe 5 minutes or less stuff. Not their 12 minute epics.
There's certaintly a Dream Theater influence there on the 'sound' of the ballads and how they want it... imo.
#16739 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chinese Democracy Liner Note Discussions *EXTREME SPOILERS* » 939 weeks ago
Brain has never been "out" of the band, and when asked, I do remember Beta saying that there was still a working relationship. Maybe not those exact words, but they're still cool with each other.

Now we're seeing how people are really feelings about this song. And it's positive. That's great.
I guarantee you when those ballads get out there in mainstream consumptions, those beautiful ladies out there all get ahold of them, it's gonna be even bigger.
