The fact that the albums were supposed to be released on varying plans, as far back as 2002, if not 1999, and there were no albums followed by touring, including CD...
He backtracked. It didn't happen. And no, 2001-02 & 2006-07 were not the "CD World Tour". They were cash grabs.
ummm, Axl talked of a double album in 1996 Burning Hills fax when he announced Slash spitting. Axl has been all over the board as far as new music goes for over a decade.
Axl always did this. When Slash left then they were working on a double album. When nothing got released till 1999-2000, he told his 70 song bluff. Later in 2001-2002 when they still didn't have the album out, he said the tour-album-tour-album-tour-album lie, that should have happened in the following 2 or 3 years. When Finck left in 2000, then it was good, cause gave them 'the opportunity to take our recording that one extra step further'. Then he said the same when BH left. Typical Axl.

Doing a track for my record with Dave Grohl on drums & Duff on bass tonight, it promises to be killer.

Like Public Enemy drum sounds?
#1835 Re: Guns N' Roses » DJ Ashba says GNR rehearses again!! » 894 weeks ago
He moves much, much, much, much less on stage than he used to. He looked like a statue of himself at the 2006 Budapest show, when I last saw him. He had health problems though (something was wrong with his back), so I don't judge him by this only one performance. But we're in the age of internet, so I saw plenty videos - he doesn't run too much. Mick Jagger runs 10 times more. But who cares if he sings well, and in most cases, he's very good. I wonder how he'll sound on the less or non-played CD songs.
#1836 Re: Guns N' Roses » DJ Ashba says GNR rehearses again!! » 894 weeks ago
people cant expect perfect screams when the guy just ran a couple 50 yard dashes beforehand.
Axl didn't run too much since his 'return'. It wasn't more than a faster walk, but usually he just stood there. Anyway, music is about music and not about running, so I'm not worried - he still has the stage presence. He doesn't necesserly need to rehearse too much - some days with the band is enough if he practices with a vocal teacher.
It's good news anyway.
#1837 Re: Guns N' Roses » Interesting part of Axl's February Del James interview » 895 weeks ago
In the original post Axl criticized the UYI guitars. I dared to point out that the long-time-in-making CD guitars are far from perfect, too. It was ontopic. I'm sorry if I hurt a Robin fan's feelings.
#1838 Re: The Sunset Strip » The 50 worst albums of the decade by EW » 895 weeks ago
I think it should have been ranked higher. It's just an opinion. Believe it or not, CD did actually disappoint most of the people that heard it.
That can be true, although it's a good album. Just not something that would worth a long wait. Or any wait at all.
#1839 Re: Guns N' Roses » Interesting part of Axl's February Del James interview » 895 weeks ago
I am sure that Axl meant that. Remember that awful article about Slash and Duff limiting Axl's mighty musical ideas on UYI, but now here is CD where the artist can shine without them? That made the official page, although they barely post anything.
About Robin: have you listened the separate guitar tracks? Haven't, I guess, otherwise you wouldn't defend him.
Sidenote: I think I can play better than Robin. Ouch. It doesn't mean much though, I think about 1,000,000,000 guitarists can play better than him. (Not to mention Robin's horrible live performances, Del James' words about his 'tuning issues'...) But even if he's better than me, it doesn't mean that his abilities were enough for GN'R. He's the worst lead guitarist a respected guitar band has ever had.
