This is all ridiculous. Just lift the term-limit thing and i'll vote for Bush for a third time.
YEAH!

It's nice to know at least the new band members, ACT like bandmates.
Unlike GNR's vocalist.
#17863 Re: Guns N' Roses » Slash's Reaction to GN'R leaker!!!! » 949 weeks ago
This thread is getting out of hand, its good to see that we now have our share of bitter Slash bashers - maybe we should let that other site know so they can come and spew their nonsense here as well.
OK, Slash nicked a few records to learn guitar from when he was a teen or whatever. You should probably thank him because if he didnt you probably wouldnt have a GNR website to complain about him on.
I suppose that none of you guys that bash him downloaded the leaks?
Huh? You totally are missing the point, mainly because your beloved Slash is getting tried and hanged for what he said.
Because he's a fucking hypocrite.
Slash is saying that downloading material is wrong and illegal, and yet he stole albums from stores back in the day, which is WORSE.
We downloaded UNRELEASED leaks, and NONE OF US are judging each other. The only person giving us a hard time is SLASH. Even Axl hasn't even given us a hard time, and it's fucking AXL.
You're trying to turn the argument back around on us, and that's fine... but the difference is we didn't open up our fat mouths. Slash did.
Most everyone here, and across the galaxy have hoped they go easy on Cogill, just because we're not nazis.

You also don't know if Baz is saying that because 4 albums ARE coming out, and now Axl is telling him to shut up, because it could screw stuff up. They'd want to negotiate deals with every single album, which could take awhile.

As for Palin, I don't think she's bad, I guess, but i'm failing to see why Hilary supporters, who's a Democrat, would vote for McCain because of Palin, a woman who is pro-life, pro-creationism, and pretty conservative on almost every issue.
And I hate to break it to her, if you are anti-gay marriage, you AREN'T "pro gay".
If Hilary supporters turn around and vote for McCain because his VP is Palin, a woman, I think it's a pretty clear cut showing that people, mainly woman aren't voting for Obama because they are RACISTS. It would reenforce an attitude of "we'd rather have the WHITE woman, than the BLACK man". How else can you look at it that way? And i'm white.

It'll be years before the oil is being pumped & used. By then we'll need to be looking for alternate energies anyway, because even forign oil will be dwindling because China, Russia & India will be using more than us anyway. Might as well be proactive and start looking now, 10 year searly.
Maybe, but that's NOT WHAT IT'S FUCKING ABOUT!
GOD, I can't count how many THICK people still don't get it.
It's not ABOUT pumping oil dude. It's about fueling SPECULATION that we're getting OUT of the foreign oil business. It's about making those ragheads think they're gonna have to take their business elsewhere, because we're going domestic.
Bush symbolically lifting the ban on off shore drilling, within days PLUMMETED prices, some places dropped over $0.60 cents a gallon in just a day and a half.
The stock market works on speculation. Always has. Always will. Just making them THINK we're going to start drilling got prices down, and INSTANTLY. Continuing to put the pressure on and play the poker game we call the world, BLUFFING, we further drive down prices, I guarantee. I know my guarantee doesn't mean much, but i'd bet my life on it.

IRS. I saw it live in 2006, and he kicked ass. Totally heavy!
#17868 Re: Guns N' Roses » Sebastian Bach - "there aren't 4 albums" » 949 weeks ago
So Baz goes and runs his mouth about being told not to run his mouth... hmm... Axl, a sign maybe bud?
ANYWAYS, everyone knew there was no way they'd put out 4 albums worth of material. At least not at once. This band has an epic issue of just putting out one.
Although I would hope that once the train got a rollin' they could see a fast track release, which even Axl has alluded to.
Maybe CD I in 2008, CD II in 2009, CD III in 2010, and CD IV in 2012. Maybe in the down time somewhere in there, possibly some kind of new live album or EP or both could be released to tide fans over for the fourth album.
Understand also, music can change ALOT in that span of time. What is potentially on CD I, Axl might be ready for release at this point. And maybe CD II also. But by the time CD III rolls around and especially CD IV, the music landscape might have changed to a point, that Mr. W. Axl Perfectionist will want to go back and totally re-record the third and fourth albums to modernize their sound.
In theory.
In reality, most of the leaks we've heard sound DATED already. So I wouldn't see a big issue in just putting all of it out there, and fast.
Then there's the possibility of a reunion, and from everything we know about Axl, and everything we've seen in the past... all a reunion would do is push back future albums. He's not going to do anything fresh with Slash & co., all he would want to do is just re-record everything, like always, and have Slash, Duff, and maybe Izzy go in there and make the stuff their own, with his lyrics and 'some' instrumental direction staying the same. Most likely the CD songs would suddenly have a 'bluesy' sound with the vocals sounding more like the Illusions. Most of these songs we've already heard sound like UYI III, especially songs like The Blues, TWAT & IRS.

If slash had been stealing CDs and distributing them instead of learning guitar from them it would be the same.
As was said above..i think most musicans will come out in support of axl on this one.
Don't kid yourself into thinking GNR wouldn't sue us all if they could win and could make it profitable. In my mind what Skewrl did was better than Slash, because he was given tracks and then he passed them on. Unlike Slash, who went into a place of business and then took things. It's not like Skewrl went into Axl's house and took shit. He was obviously just given it from someone else. And someone else got it from someone else, etc, until someone was given it by Fernando.
Totally agree 100%
#17870 Re: The Garden » McCain picks Sarah Palin for Vice President » 949 weeks ago
It's a pretty bold move. McCain is banking everything on the 'woman' angle. Plus she's not a bad looking woman either, neither is Cindy. He's banking everything on 'image'.
Because this move has TOTALLY neutralized anyway that McCain will be able to attack Obama's experience. All they'll retort with is 'look at Palin'.
People are acting like McCain made a bad move, and it's not a shock. That's what the majorly left-wing biased media WANTS you to think. Let's turn Obama into the rock star. Let him give his nomanation acceptance speech in front of 70,000 people at Invesco Field, etc.
She & McCain support "big oil". So do I. There's nothing wrong with that. I don't give a flying fuck about the environment, I give a fuck about prices, and as long as the oil companies are willing to make a little less, to take the pressure off me, I have no problem with them CONTINUING to make money on oil.
