Just thought I'd beg and plead as sometimes I think GNR lurk here....

I think they only did twat twice so far right? I know some people around wern't too happy about the NYC peformance....but that was just a warm up gig afterall...and I think the other show where they played it it was pretty impressive....

Listen to this MP3 of Ron playing the bucket solo..forget where...was it spain or soemthing? pretty killer imo....

Am I alone in thinking that's pretty bad ass? Now that we have Chinese Democracy...i'd love a live show with a few of those tunes mixed in with the old favourites.....I think it could be pretty awesome. 3

Why do people read here then post about it somewhere else. I find that kinda odd. Why not just join here.

You could easily make a case that the grunge movement started with GNR. It was real, it was from the streets, it was a breath of fresh air, and its what people of all ages wanted. Only reason they aren't credited with changing the musical climate is because they weren't from Seattle.

I'm not sure I'd call them grunge as their sound is more like a bluesy-rock type thing than what I think of as grunge, but I totally agree about the attitude and the reality.

There was a massive raw and real life edge to the band...while their studio efforts are amazing, part of the appeal for me early on was that they could really deliver the goods live....like you see Axl and Slash live and you know Axl is really screaming his lungs off and slash is playing the shit out of the guitar...so much at that time in music, in other bands, was overly manafacturfed and polished, with session players and tricks....

But then Axl would come out live with enough attitude to fuck your mother, Duff would be drunk, Slash would be high, but mistakes and all, they'd deliver a fucking peformance that blew the mind....the attitude, the rawness and the fucking reality of it.....there just wasn't anything else even close to it at the time...and I'd venture to suggest not too much since....

Who is it at 2:45?

yeah that was the one i was talkin about..sounds like shit by itself and there is no flow there at all

The interesting part is I think that solo sounds good in the final mix....@ 2:23...to me it shows how the harmonies from the other layers of chords and stuff really make something work.

It's almost like classical music this album...like if you take just the viola part or the chello, or the 1st or 2nd violin by itself they sound shit and disjointed and boring...but then you put them all together and it makes some kind of wild symphony where the whole is greater than the parts....

Well considering a good 80% of the artists today don't write their own stuff...

Another thing I think is wrong with the industry 14

But it's the different style thing that's messed up more.

Like I think beyonce sounds great doing the style she sings in. But would she be good fronting metallica? James sounds cool in metallica, but does he work in destiny's child? Seems to me that to win a show like idol you have to be average in every genre.

#7808 Re: Guns N' Roses » Matt Sorum: Axl shouldn't tour under GNR name » 889 weeks ago

I also think it could be that Izzy was an afterthought because he is manly talking of Slash and Duff who he is currently stll in a band with. So it wasn't that izzy is less but more that he wasn't someone who springs to mind as fast...

#7809 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chinese Democracy/Rock Band 2 (Tracks Leaking?) » 889 weeks ago

I've got the tracks for Shacklers. The real ones but they came out a long time back. If anyone wants I'll upload them here.

I'd like that smile
