Yeah I was pondering the same thing. It makes you wonder what the hell was going on during the planned 2001 shows and that situation.

Damn! Sign me up! big_smile I submitted my email on a  raffle on Ultimate Classic Rock.com to win a replica of one of Dime's signature guitars or another Pantera related prize. Which I doubt I'm going to win! 14 Just doing it for the fun of it I suppose.

I could see her taking some time off to support the child and be a good mother. Also I sense a sort of Double Fantasy song writing approach if she decides to record another album in the near future or just have a positive reflective songwriting mind set with adding in some rough cuts about moving forward I guess. Not a big Adele fan; but I can listen to a good number of her songs and she is fine! wink

Oh..dude! That's one of my favorite Genesis songs! It's one of songs that I think alot of people can relate to.  Land of Confusion, TURN IT ON, The Carpet Crawlers 1999 version, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway (song), Counting Out Time, Invisible Touch, Tonight Tonight (those drums!), Follow You Follow Me, Jesus He Knows Me (kickass beat and the lyrics), Abacab...I could go on! So many great tracks! 11 I think the song Congo they did with Ray Wilson was pretty good...but Phil Collins will be probably be my favorite singer for Genesis. I just can't seem to get into some of the Peter fronted songs even though he is a fantastic singer and extremely influential. 22

I hope Axl hasn't made a pile of money off this tour and ends up too interested in shopping for a new lambo or something rather than getting back in the studio with the band.

I think they should choose a very 'practical' producer for the next record - someone focussed on getting the job done rather than endlessly fucking around with pro tools or whatever the latest gadgets are.

And record as a unit not guitarists by day singer by night

If Axl wants to make this succeed, he's going to need to be there with the band. As for a producer, I personally don't think it's necessary since it's been said that alot of the vault material has already been recorded by various producers. All you would need to do is credit them and give there share of the profits. I think with Pitman, Ron, and DJ being in the room you kind of already have folks with programming and production experience with recording up front and behind the scenes. Of course Caram and Eric are going to be with Axl to hit the record button and edit and polish the tracks with his vision in mind. It could be they already have a ton of areas logged in a book and they would take those notes to the new material or just start from scratch and bust out a few tracks if they all do their part. Hell, they may have already recorded songs with DJ. No one has an answer at the moment which is a big problem.

The only time Axl had 'mystique' was when he went missing for years. Fucking hell even to see him on a shopping trip with Beta was big news in those days. Even to this day I still don't think many people know what he got up to. Would love to read his bio.

Same here man! It would be quite a read! I just hope it's not just constant ranting and it goes more in depth with how he writes songs or the full side of his story on Chinese's development and the events before it. As for the mystique topic, even fans started freaking out during the 1999 phone in interview with Kurt Loder on MTV. Even the 2001 basketball game interview surprised people because it was that random!

I know right? Yeah I borrowed the Turn it On Again: The Hits CD from a friend's house about a year ago and I enjoyed alot of the songs off the IT album; and the record was a steal; so I couldn't resist! Especially since it has most of my favorite songs on Genesis and it would be great for a collection. Some of Phil Collin's best vocal and drum work.  Tony and Mike blaze through each song on their respective instruments with new sounds. 3 One day at a party I'll bust it out on my family's record player or at another person's house. big_smile It was in great shape. Me and my Dad looked over it and there were no scratches just a little dust here and there.

Axl's an idiot when it comes to marketing his band and career....

I don't disagree. I think he (or worse, his "managers") think he's still got this whole mystique going for him.

Which he does not.

The man needs to hire better staff. Fernando and the Lebsis' are not letting anything move forward. How they manage or report things to the user base on the website and the social networks confuses or pisses off the fan base. I believe the mystique ended by 2003.

That is a cool video.

I'm not against the band at all...I just much prefer to hear them bust out stuff like in 09...like twat, scrapped, if the world etc.....

I'd kill for a proshot dvd of the CD songs live.

You ain't the only one! 5 I know some of the band members and fans wanted a live album or DVD/Blu ray tour movie in some shape or form over the past few years.
