Is that a rhetorical question Russ?

Maybe he follows GN'R because he thinks Axl Rose makes great music.

It is possible to love something deeply, but still be disappointed, bored, distraught, or angered, by it.

Its been the same SNAFU for 10+ years:

Axl is semi-retired, he tours the greatest hits + CD every 4 years

There's nothing for him to say. There isn't any future. What you see is what you get.

He might have had a productive period from '99-'02, but that time is long gone. He's not working on anything new and hasn't in 10+ years.

Nothing has changed, it's been this way for over 10 years.

It does have the red stars though

^^ I love that -- this is pretty tight, too:

they are totally being inducted into the rock n roll HOF next year -- I was there on Sunday (Cleveland) and this is the only GN'R prediction (post-2005) that I am certain of.
