Great post. I think the scariest day will come when we're weakened to an extent that another 9/11 takes place, this time an actual country attack, where that fear of crossing the Atlantic to go at us on our home turf... will be gone.
That'll be the day they break out the nuclear arms, as a way of trying to re-establish their authority. America that is.

Madrid was better than NYC, but both were awful. I assume like Estranged, because of the complexity practice makes perfect.
#17353 Re: Guns N' Roses » How many times have you seen GN'R live? » 944 weeks ago
Twice, both in 2006. Tampa & Estero. Had tix in 2002, but the show was cancelled.
I just wish, like any true completist, I had seen every incarnation of the band.

McCain... more like 'turned around' than 'lost'.
That Bush clip is classic. The beautiful part is how he just played for it laughs, which was cool. If that had been his dad, he would've got beat red mad, and stormed away.

I think the more dangerously scary situation is... it's like we're baiting Russia intentionally for a war.
Afghanistan. Check.
Iraq. Check.
Iran. Prepping.
Pakistan. Maybe.
North Korea. 'Finishing Touches'.
China. Our bill collector.
and now... Russia. Prepping.
Do we want World War III? Are we just committing suicide or what's going on?

Most likely if Axl hadn't become a rock artist, he would've been in the Aryan Nations.
#17357 Re: Guns N' Roses » Who's still listening to the leaks & SR? » 944 weeks ago
the way i look at it
if what they say that a reunion almost happned in '06 is true
then a reunion in the near future is very possible, especially now with azoff as the managerif a reunion is to happen after release of cd then ya gotta consider the possibility that this release, in whatever form it comes, will be the last release from axl's new gnr project
since we can assume that azoff and universal have atleast considered a release/reunion they would consider this being the last release
so one step further, if a release/reunion is in the works and we will only get one new gnr release ya gotta assume it will either be a multi disc or a single disc with only the best songs available
if it is true that azoff wanted the deal with wal mart but axl wouldn't switch a few songs with swear words around then obviously the multi disc deal is not likley
so i say, despite what has officially been reported, don't be surprised if shackler's is not on the album, along with any other subpar leaks that got less than glowing reviews from the people that heard them on youtube and fan forums, etc.
Interesting take. I don't think a multi-disc or multi-album is out of the way, because if that we're the case, it would just lead more in favor with Best Buy. If they were considering some sort of box set, most likely the entire set with get a Parental Advisory, because Axl would probably have at least an album's worth out of the set of offensive lyric songs.
The idea of taking the best of the best of the best, releasing it as a single disc, just to get the elephant off his back, and then go reunion would make good sense also. Imo, the new band as a live act seems deader than hell at this point, and it isn't like former members are busy right now.
CD could be released as a single disc, loaded with Axl's epics, be called another bloated release from Mr. Rose, but probably considered a masterpiece by some down the road.
The old band could rework the more 'classic GNR' material that got cut, and all the rest of the new band stuff would be abandoned and probably released later on as some sorty of cutting room floor box set.
It would also tie into russ's theory of Shackler & If The World being burn off's, that might not even be on the album.

#17360 Re: The Garden » Palin flunks mock debates » 944 weeks ago
Wow, CBS actually did her a favor. They cut off the "You know as a mayor, as a governor, as a VP if I were so privileged we would be in a position of changing those things but in supporting the law of the land as it reads today...." on the TV broadcast.
That statement doesn't make any sense!! I swear she just says words to fill in the time.
No offense to Sarah Palin, but it's becoming more and more obvious the Republican party, in a sexist move, thought that just "getting a chick on the ticket" that the dumb Americans would vote, and allow the Republicans to steal Hilary Clinton's thunder.
Palin seems like an alright woman, even though i'm not totally in line with her politics, but she has been used and abused by her own party in this election.
