How ethical do you think that was even if not illegal? Why would he not sign it other than the fact he wanted to fuck the other guys over?
Also what was the statute of limitations on them launching a claim for this shit too? Honest question, was it passed before they realized what had happened?
KV?
Niven was G&R manager and, as such, could be sacked at any time. From what I know about Axl and Niven's relationship, there were numerous problems between the two.
Additionally, it is not illegal to refuse to sign a contract. Everyone has a right to walk away; sometimes there are consequences to doing so.
If Axl committed a criminal act in obtaining the name, the statute of limitations would be longer than the civil, if my base legal knowledge is right. S&D could have sought relief based on fraud and coercion anytime up until that statute ended.
Since there is no evidence that the name was obtained through an illegal action and S&D have never commented on the statute running out, we can't conclude that this occurred.
When did the statute end tho?
I know it sounds like nothing, but I think in one of Axls rants he even referenced the fact that they tried to take action " long after the statute of limitations" had expired.
What if they came out of their drug haze after it was too late? It's not illegal but what are the ethics and intentions?

Was Axl more savvy with business and possibly got the junkies to sign something they didn't realize or no longer had the energy to fight (given they knew his previous petulant beaviour when he didn't get hs own way), maybe.
Is this illegal? Quite possibly not depending on the circumstances, Or if it was at the very least it's very hard to prove.
Was it unethical of Axl - quite possibly.

Just because something can't be proved in court to their burden of proof doesn't mean it didn't or some version of it never happened.

KV How do you honestly know that some form of coercion never happened?
I don't know for sure it did I dont know for sure it didn't!

Re getting released from the lable, just had a thought maybe Axl wants this to occur before he would ever consider a reunion. I don't see a reunion happening although Axls cryptic letter did kinda leave the door somewhat ajar.
Anyhow my point is not about whether it will or won't happen, but rather hypothetically if it was going to wouldn't it make sense to be out of his contract before even going down this path. He then has the whip hand and is free to choose who they get into bed with etc. more importantly I'm sure they would be able to make much more money as they could negotiate a much better deal.

Well the whole thing was pretty underwhelming, probably not helped by the fact that there essentially wasn't any video of it.
That said, it's pretty much what I expected tho. Without Izzy and Axl they were always going to be pushing shit up hill to make it somewhat respectable.

Oh good he gave us his email address so we can tell him what a TWAT he is.
I heard him mention the words hip hop and I fell asleep.

Could have been worse it could have been Fergie singing SCOM.
On a separate note WTF is this Chuck D grandstanding about??
