#6351 Re: Guns N' Roses » Which member do you respect the most? » 950 weeks ago
Not that I wish anything bad to happen to Axl, but who really cares if he's "still around"? If my 2 choices are what we have now or no GnR since the 90s, I'll take no GnR since the 90s since that's essentially what we have anyway. If he was releasing music and it was good, I'd feel differently, but until then, who cares.

I bowled a 792 yesterday and cried today for the first time since my mom died.

I don't believe him for a second. I think he got advice from Axl on how to take credit for everything.

It's more of an indictment against the rest of the guys that it is a plug for Ron. Ron seems like a good guy who respects the old band. That by itself is good enough for me compared to the others.
What makes you think the other guys don't respect the old band?
Although I think Ron's a great guy and a great player, I think it's easier for him to come off as respectful because he doesn't have a lot of stock in CD. Guys like Robin and Tommy and Brain have spent years ont his material, and their 'disrespect' may just be frustration over a lack of identity.
Ron is the only one I've heard say he respects the old band. It's not always what you say, sometimes it's what you don't say. The butchering of the old material by Finck doesn't give me the impression he appreciates the music much less the artists that made the music.
It's just my opinion. I do feel bad for the other guys to some extent, but they got themselves into this situation and have made the decision to stay. I'd honestly respect them a lot more if they left.

I love my PS3. Best system I've ever owned.

BBF and it isn't even close. He may be the only member I have any respect for right now.

#6359 Re: The Garden » Do you collect anything? » 951 weeks ago
I've been collecting hockey cards off and on since I was 5. Haven't bought any in a while, but I'll probably buy a few soon. I have well over 5000 cards in my collection. Too bad a lot of them are cheap Pro Set cards! Still at Beckett.com fair value of about $1000.
I was never into hockey cards, but I collected cards (mostly baseball, but some football and basketball) when I was younger. I wouldn't even want to guess on a value, but I think I have at least 3000 Frank Thomas cards.
#6360 Re: Guns N' Roses » new Baz interview..talking about Axl/GnR again » 951 weeks ago
Again, I wouldn't put any stock into what Baz says. I mean, he was going on in some interview about how stupid people are for not believing the albums coming because he's heard it and it's (ofcourse) amazing. Now he doesn't even know what songs are gonna be on the album?
Exactly. Nobody in the GnR camp has any credibility anymore outside of BBF, and he's been reeled in as well. I can't wait to hear his story when he leaves the band, but unfortunately, he seems like too cool a guy to go off on his views of the bullshit.
