Twelve Guns N' Roses shows in Las Vegas from 10/31 - 11/24 at The Joint, Hard Rock Hotel. Tickets go on sale Friday www.thejointlasvegas.com
I hope Axl and his camp will not use words like "integrity" and "art" in the future.

I'd give the rest of my hair for this.
Unfortunately the opposite seems to be happening. So Axl saves your hair.

November Rain is an AFD song, according to their official FB page? OMG.
That Axl pic is awful. They just shouldn't do this with him.

Those setlist were the planned sets and the extras. I remember that back then people were excited that GN'R 'were to play' like 12 songs after PC. No way in hell. Those setlists posted were the setlists and the possible alternates/fill-in additions. It's another story that SOAD were forced to play all the songs, while waiting for Axl to arrive.
BTW I still don't get why he needs to arrive to the venue only an hour before the show. Very unprofessional, even from a primadonna.

I think Slash is trying to be nice. There's no way in hell Jimmy Gnecco tells VR he's to busy to front them. They must all be friends or something, but I don't believe Gnecco was too busy for VR.
Yeah, I think it was Slash's time schedule.

I remember when Rockband(?) came out some months before the album and it had Shackler's Revenge on it, they (probably Mysteron) said @ HTGTH that this song is going to be the first single.
Imagine... the first 'GN'R song' in 17 years...wouldn't have even reached the rock charts at all. If Better would have been a 'bit strange' from GN'R for a casual listener, what about that White Zombie mess?

It seems like they'll restart the tour cycle in SA. Maybe it's only one show, but they can sell out stadiums there, so I think it'll be more.

Incompetent people can't renegotiate record contracts; especially when they have nothing to offer.
As I see, the Lebeis family has been professionally managing their own interest for quite a while... As soon as they realize that they need Axl to release new stuff to fund their luxury, they'll convince the redhead to ease on the situation.
On the other hand selling 1,000,000 copies of a new GN'R album, selling a shitload from the back catalogue, keeping the brand alive and keeping the brand in their pocket is still a better deal for Universal than freezing Axl into hybernation, losing the potential new sales (which would be still better than most of the artists'), risking Axl walking off someway or going back to Malibu and not releasing shit anymore and risking the sales of the back catalogue. Cause like it or not, believe it or not, the numbers would be much worse if this version of GN'R (and Slash) weren't still promoting classic GN'R.
#509 Re: Guns N' Roses » Bumblefoot not happy? Speculating.... » 684 weeks ago
My opinion: current "management" will never, ever be responsible for new music being released. Ever.
Well, I disagree. The Brazil Team's luxury living is based on Axl's income, and even if they're making more money off touring than any possible album now, they'll need a new record to sell the next tours. They just can't sell this same show nostalgia trip anymore in the US and I think that they'll have more and more problems with selling it in Europe, too. The world map is getting smaller and smaller for them.
I'm sure that at one point the Lebeis family will convince both Axl and the label to negotiate a new contract. With more 'Guns N' Roses' albums secured, Uni will release the new stuff till the 'Big Reunion Pay-Off' comes (till hell freezes over) and Axl can tour years with the CD follow-up(s), so he (and his new family) will win time to live their luxury life without being forced into the reunion. GN'R albums will still sell relatively well, based on the name alone, and if next time it's quality music, than that's even better. With a new contract none of them can lose, just win.
(It's another question though if Axl's able to finish any new material in his lifetime, but he still has some old BH/Finck/Tobias stuff in his vault.)

Am I the only one who's stunned and fuckin raging at the arrogance and distain shown to Ron by that worthless cunt jarmo and his resident sow gypsysoul in this thread?
http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/boar … c=64588.60
(Ron posts btw)
Either the band members are slaves of the Malibu Mafia and treated like that everyday, or Ron is out of this band /will be out sooooon.
What a bunch of disprespectful parasite assholes anyway. They are the cancer that needs to be removed and avoided. ASAP.
