Boys, if even his employees can't get in touch with Axl, than how could his enemies? I'm not surprised that after they didn't get the money (I still find it mysterious that one day it was all directed to Axl), they sued.

BTW haven't you got tired of all the past bullshit and fan fantasies and counter fantasies? I'm afraid a lot of GN'R fans followed Axl's footsteps and lost their connection with music and only here for drama and conspiracy theories. Some day we'll make a beer ad, too.

Yeah and the supposed "big guns" are still unheard. What I read Battleground, Avalon, Wicked Stone and The Unholy are the songs could be the best. (BTW Horrible, horrible song titles mostly.)

World On Fire is a mediocre song, but good for work-out. I really liked Bent To Fly. A catchy song with a nice atmosphere. Nothing groundbreaking, but a nice song. I was BTF-addicted for a few days, which rarely happens.

I can't understand all the Ron bashing here. Sure he's been whining about GN'R for years now. But this is only because he's the only one there with artistic integrity. He wants to create. The others are only there for the paycheck. Can you imagine how frustrating this can be for an artist to play other people's ancient songs in the same order day by day, when the band has big potential?
I also don't get the "he's the new Slash" stuff, like it would be something negative. Yeah, Slash used to bitch (more directly) about Axl and his (non-existant) working ethics. He'd been bitching for 2 years then quit. Interestingly enough, the same people who blame him for his "bitching" blame him for leaving the band. What should have he done? What should Ron do? They tried and try everything to get Axl, this (once) extremely talented man fulfill his potential. or at least create something new instead of ripping off the fans with the same old shit again and again. Unfortunately Axl has all the power and he's only using it for doing nothing. Such a shame. Really, what should Ron do? He should do the Robin? The "now I'm out, now I'm in, now I'm out again" scenario? Or the "I'm the Whacko Jacko of guitar, build me a chicken coop, oops I left just weeks before the new nostalgia tour" BH route?
Ron's more honest, sincere and has the best intentions of moving forward than anyone in the band since Slash N' Duff. There is a chance that Axl doesn't wanna record with his new band at all. I don't think it'd be a Ron-specific problem, since NOTHING's keeping him from making an album without whoever he wants. The problem is he doesn't wanna do anything, but living his high life. since it's extremely expensive, he needs to whore out once in every 1 or 2 years. That's the truth. He's totally lost it and what's even worse, he's become a sell-out. He's a sad parody of his former self. He's everything that he once fought against.

The "great news" will be about Kings of Chaos, I guess.
