#231 Re: Guns N' Roses » AXL SUED FOR RAPE » 128 weeks ago
Same story as Erin and Stephanie….he was a pretty sick dude then. It is what it is. He put the work in to try to get better and by most measures he is light years better
Yep...none of this is surprising. It's been his MO going back decades. As pointed out, it's not even new.. it's shit we heard about in our youth.
I don't think it's going to do much damage. It'll go away quickly whether settled or not. GNR just aren't big enough anymore for the whole world to care and make it some massive story that won't go away.
If GNR were going to get canceled for anything, it would've been over One In A Million, Used To Love Her, or one of the crazy Erin/Steph stories years ago.

All of a sudden I'm remembering an advert (Harley d?) with better but it got replaced for paradise city
Yep..an early sign that the possibility of a 2006 release had been shit canned.
The Better/Lars/Fernando fiasco was a sign that TB's reign would be amateur hour on a permanent basis.

I believe that the rumour about Fernando being the source of some of the leaks started from that interview he did with a Brazilian fan site in 2001, where he said that he was letting his friends listen to the songs:
Maybe dark or MSL could weigh in but it definitely goes deeper than this.
Unfortunately my memory on this ancient stuff isn't crystal clear but he was intertwined with this stuff in the early 2000s...maybe even with the Velvet Rope links that have apparently been lost to history.

Been watching some 70s movies this week... mainly the usual suspects.
I have to revise my top 10:
Apocalypse Now
Rocky
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The Godfather
Network
Black Christmas
Escape from Alcatraz
Foul Play
The Conversation
Dog Day Afternoon
TCM doesn't really deserve that high ranking if I'm honest...I have a soft spot for it. It's an amazing film almost ruined during the final act.
Marathon Man no longer on the list although it deserves to be.

Is that a noose or a wedding band....

There's a good song buried in the white noise.

They have leverage and if they want better management of Guns now is the time to move for it.
Slash had massive amounts of leverage day one. Hell...Axl made the first move. He was painted into a corner...there was nowhere left for GNR to go. They were on the verge of playing in clubs and theaters here.
He flushed that leverage.. probably because they all just wanted to cash in the reunion chips and to speed things along.
He should've demanded professional management in place before anything happens.
Dark. I heard this before also when he was leaking songs to friends in Brazil
Yep... Fernando is the nexus of the leaks.
I'm sure the weirdness around making music and the various Brazilian hangers-on grates on them, but again, nothing they weren't expecting with Axl I don't suppose.
Yeah...they all knew what they signed up for. Both Slash and Duff had made negative comments regarding Axl's yes men/sycophants going back to the late 90s.
They didn't care enough to do anything.
And it should not be hard for Axl to elevate Vanessa or Beta to replace Fernando and whatever he does.
That's just a game of musical chairs with incompetence.

Hurry up and grab these because I'm taking it down....

Hold on…. I just speculated earlier that maybe Melissa wasn’t sick….maybe she knew stuff and quit. NO Basis or knowledge, just spit balling.
Yes of course...but smart spit balling. 
It's insanity how this was the most "stable" lineup in the band's history.

2024 not a peep
2025-27 farewell/AFD shindig
That's it.
They won't need Chinese leftovers to sell a farewell tour.
If not that scenario....it's over now.
Yeah I could see this. First part especially i doubt we will get anything from them for probably 2 years. I expect the last song release to be Perhaps/General & if they do come back it to be a farewell tour thing.
They could still cancel Perhaps/General. Perhaps is already dead anyways.
In the one in a million chance there was an Atlas release in the pipeline... it's been shit canned. I didn't believe it anyway..they don't do releases when not touring.
