#401 Re: Guns N' Roses » FAKE - Axl announces new GNR album in 2012? » 779 weeks ago
If it was hacked, wouldn't it reveal a different IP-adress?
One of the mods said the IP seemed legit.
I would guess like some of you, someone was excited and drunk!
Oh! And to add fuel to the conspiracy. The GNR "manager" is on his way to California and New York to make some deals!
From Twitter:
FLebeis: Headed to CA, to do some errands, then to NYC to do yet some more errands, then to Florida to kick off @gunsnroses US TOUR!

Great interview of Duff by Adam Curry
#404 Re: Guns N' Roses » Mexico City (2nd Night) - Palacio de los Deportes - October 19, 2011 » 779 weeks ago
Yeah! Those in attendance the 2nd night must be REAL dissapointed that they got the same songs as the other crowd!
GNR, how dare you??!!
#405 Re: Guns N' Roses » Live Pro-Shot from GN'R fb page » 779 weeks ago
Fuckin' cool they're actually uploading these pro shots!
Hope the audio improves and that they keep doing it! 
It'll be simple good PR when they hit the US (where they seem to need it!). These kind of clips have the potential to spread like wildfire due to people from the gigs will share these on their FB-profiles (Check it out! This is the gig I went to last night! It was awesome!)
#406 Re: Guns N' Roses » Could the tide be turning » 780 weeks ago
Not sure about any tide turning...
But this is definetly a step in the right direction!
That video is from their official YouTube-page, right?

#407 Re: Guns N' Roses » 10/15/11 - Asunción, Paraguay @ Jockey Club [70,000 TICKETS SOLD!] » 780 weeks ago
They "called" it a festival
But GN'R was the ONLY act to my knowledge.
Weird. Almost like false-advertising on the promoters part.
Yeah, that is weird!
But then yes, as far as I know this must be one of the largest crowds for GNR.
And like you said, I seem to remember several of those SA shows back in 92-93 were huge!

I thought this WAS a festival....

I mean, fucking hell. The song is an absolute masterpiece of epic proportions.
If Bucket had laid his hands on creating those solos, I'm sure it would have been even better. Wops, did I say that out loud?
Estranged is a masterpiece, the pinnacle of Guns N' Roses. It shits on every other song in the set.
I always thought Bucket would nail Estranged in a live setting. However, the studio version is the shit. Everything is perfect and no other guitar player at the time, in the world, could have played it better than Slash. Estranged and Coma are Axl's and Slash's masterpieces together. SCOM is their pop/rock masterpiece, but those other two are the pinnacle of their artistic capabilities.

Well put!
Can't argue with that!
Not sure about the part that "no other guitar player at the time, in the world, could have played it better than Slash"-part. The core of the song, to me, are the songwriting/lyrics.
Finally seeing/hearing it again reminds me of how brilliant the SONGWRITING/LYRICS of Estranged really are!
Don't know what I'm trying to say. But the truth is, what touched me first about Estranged, was the lyrics. Phrases like "When I find all of the reasons, maybe I'll find another way, find another day, with all the changing seasons of my life, maybe I'll get it right next time" and "I'll never find anyone to replace you, maybe I'll get it right...next time"
Whenever I hear the song. I sort of think back to that "interview" with Axl in "Makin' Fuckin' Videos" for Don't Cry, where he talks briefly about re-incarnation ("whether anyone believes in that or not....It also symbolieses that, if you don't get it right, you get to try again...or...you might HAVE to try again")
That kind of thinking really touched me in a way that I'm still trying to figure out.
And in later years, when I've really gotten into various documentaries about string-theory, re-incarnation and alternate universes and other hippy-trippy shit like that, that song (and other lyrics by Axl) have really touched me on a level that no other band/artist ever have!
