If they can't put out one album of material, the other 3 are useless.
#6592 Re: Guns N' Roses » Lay Your Cards on the Line » 922 weeks ago
5. Assume Chinese is a smashing success, after all the current material is released, would you still want a reunion of the original band?
a. Yes
b. NoEventually i'd like a reunion, yeah sure, who wouldn't, but i'd like to see the current band run its course, i think they have real potential
This probably deserves another thread, but what is the current band's course? Also, what do you mean by current band?
I agree with this in theory, but reading it made me think this over. Is their current course one album? Is it touring until there's a reunion? Is it releasing several albums? They can't seem to get one album out for whatever reason, so expecting several is unrealistic. Are they done after CD and a tour supporting it? Will there be another silent period after that?
Personally, I think they're done after CD (if it ever comes out). I don't see any reason to continue beyond that with everything it took just to get to that point.
Then we can have the "Super Guns N' Roses Reunions Tour" to support the 10 or so different lineups individually playing the songs they wrote and/or recorded culminating with everybody on stage for KOHD in a R&RHOF style production with the 50 plus people that have been associated with the band musically at one point or another. Teddy, Tracy and Roberta, Tracii Guns, the 976-horns, BH, Brain, Dave Navarro, Zack Wylld, Brian May, Beta on tamborine, etc. What the fuck, we might as well have fun with it.

Unless it was code for "we made out offer to the record company and they dont like our terms, its in their court now" in which case we might be in for a long wait.
I'm afraid this is exactly what it means. Hopefully I'm wrong. I don't think Axl even has management right now though, and that is troubling as well. If he's the one calling the shots (as he's always been) without anybody to tell him what he's asking for is nuts, we're in for a wait that might make the current wait seem short.
I still stick with my original prediction that the album will come out after Axl dies.
#6594 Re: Guns N' Roses » The Reason Behind The Delay Of "Chinese Democracy"....? » 922 weeks ago
I don't believe it. Even if it is true, this basically admits that the past 15 years weren't the record company's fault (which we all knew anyway).
#6595 Re: Guns N' Roses » Lay Your Cards on the Line » 922 weeks ago
1. Who broke up the old band?
a. Axl
2. Do you want a reunion before Chinese Democracy-all original members only?
b. No
3. What is holding up Chinese Democracy?
a. Axl's perfectionism or his inability to finish the job
4. If it is business matters, who is at fault?
b. Axl
5. Assume Chinese is a smashing success, after all the current material is released, would you still want a reunion of the original band?
c. It depends on the circumstances
#6596 Re: Guns N' Roses » Love Is A Bitchslap With Axl » 922 weeks ago
Haven't heard the real one with Axl yet. I'd love to, but I haven't come across it just yet.
Maybe if you're lucky, you'll stumble across it.

Other then these boards, I don't see this album moving more copies because of Axl's involvement. I think whatever promotion Bach can go out there and do is whats gonna move copies.
There are people on this site that have said they are buying it just because of Axl.
I meant to mean that it won't move a significant amount more because of Axl.
I disagree. I think a lot of the sales will be due to Axl and the hype surrounding his singing on the album. Someone posted some reviews from the media and they all focused more on Axl than the songs themselves or Baz.
#6598 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Guns N' Roses Without Dizzy Reed » 922 weeks ago
I voted the same. Dizzy didn't do anything special or create masterful piano parts. Anybody could have done what he did, it just happened to be him. I have nothing against Dizzy, I just don't think he's anything special either.
#6599 Re: The Garden » weird things you are addicted to » 922 weeks ago
I'm addicted to the internet. Even if I have nothing to do online, I will sit with the laptop and just waste time intead of getting off my ass and doing something productive. I know this won't come as a surprise, but I need help.
