#17781 Re: The Sunset Strip » METALLICA Discussion » 948 weeks ago
Metallica fans are quite possibly the dumbest fans ever of any band. Metallica tried to be a multi-layered, multi-talented band, and all their fans wanted them to be is metal's AC/DC. Every album should've sounded like Ride The Lightning or Master of Puppets over and over and over. It's just lame. The Black Album is probably their best album ever, and yet no one wants to give it credit because it wasn't Puppets II.
ANYWAYS, from what i've heard this album is better than St. Anger, definitely. But I still think it's an average output in comparison to all of their previous albums, Load & Reload included.

Some people take stuff way too seriously.
And yes I hate that song too. It's so retarded.
"I kissed a girl, and I liked it..." well hell, I could've told you that! Kissing girls is awesome!
#17783 Re: Guns N' Roses » Baz Canadian Tour Cancelled. Opening for major act this fall? GNR??? » 948 weeks ago
Baz touring for a major act could be opening for Ratt. Nothing against Ratt, but what Baz defines as 'major act' varies greatly from the general public. GN'R is probably the only major act he's opened for, even though Poison tours tend to do great B.O. for the venues they perform in.
I personally think Axl needs to move on from Baz, if GN'R were to tour again this fall. Baz has opened the last two years, most of the world has seen it, and it's time for something fresh. I personally think Axl's technique of an old-timer act for the old fans (Baz) and a new-timer act for the new fans (Papa Roach) is quite a good move from the shows I saw.
Maybe there's another 80's act lying around Axl could use for an opener, and then get a newer act too. But I think it's time to move on from Baz.

Cogill buys into this Beta/Del mentality, but on the opposite side of the fence. They fuel the war, as does guys like Cogill on the other side of this fans vs. GN'R. And frankly, I don't need your Civil War.
Of course I'd much rather have it where Axl appreciates his fans and we could encourage him. I wantot encourage him. But how can we do that when he sees us as the ennemy no matter what. By doing this it pisses off the fans and all shit hit the fan. I thought Azoff would be able to repair the bridge but thus far the bridge has been burned more and more.
Azoff is doing what any good producer would do. Protect the band and their work. That's his job.
He can be the bad guy, as long as Axl looks like the good guy. It's the 'ole Col. Parker method.

I think The Blues & TWAT are the most 'old GNR' songs of the new band.

Nah, no way. Savini did a good job, but the original Night is an absolute classic.
#17787 Re: The Garden » McCain picks Sarah Palin for Vice President » 948 weeks ago
Seems like they are similar on alot of issues to me.
But just because McCain supports domestication of the oil business, and a firm stance on Iraq & the war on terror is enough for me to give him an edge over Obama.
Obama was FLAT OUT WRONG about the surge, and still REFUSES to admit it. Bush proved him wrong. This is fact. And their only counter is "well we shouldn't have been there in the first place". 
Oh, and to the BOTH of them, this whole thing on nuclear energy, I agree with. But get ready for it.... when they start pushing it, the hippies will be reborn and all the global warming freaks will be there to, protesting it to death again and talking about how everything is going to be the next Chernobyl. McCain will push forward. Obama will cave to Nancy Pelosi and the San Francisco Democrats.
#17788 Re: The Garden » US Magazine losing subscribers over Palin attacks » 948 weeks ago
I think it's rather disappointing how much the media is just flat out sexist. Blatant.
They gave Hilary absolute hell during the primaries, ALWAYS making her look bad so their beloved "rock star" would win, and they are taking it to Sarah even worse because she's a Republican.
Dispicable.
#17789 Re: The Garden » Obama: Running campaign counts as executive experience » 948 weeks ago
Yep. The same reason Obama's damage control people are telling Biden to back off on the Iraq war comments going into the final two months.
HE VOTED FOR IT RIGHT ALONG SIDE MCCAIN.
It's not about being anti-war or pro-war, it's about Biden looking like a freakin' hypocrite. They told him to shut up on the "McCain has been there all these years and done nothing"... umm so have you Joe.
VP's don't affect election outcome but Biden is getting very close to the line of becoming a liability.
#17790 Re: Guns N' Roses » Slash talks about Chinese Democracy and Axl ! » 948 weeks ago
Slash has never been rude to Axl in the press, but I do think its all the more interesting and obvious that ever since VR had a 'gold' album and went singer-less that he's been buttering Mr. Rose up alot in the press.
