#8331 Re: Guns N' Roses » Question to James and all the other mods about Beta and Fernando. » 911 weeks ago
As and end user and not a mod etc this is my thoughts: I don't know beta or fernando and havn't even read anything they posted elsewhere, but the great thing about this site is the uncensored views and freedom to post anything and also that, differences asside, our discussion tends to be at quite an intelligent level so if they'd be willing to come and participate in a similar fashion it'd be interesting to see people that close to the band around.

Sounds like an extra cymbol hit or something to me...is that what you're talking about?
#8333 Re: Guns N' Roses » IF CD doesnt outdo Contraband » 911 weeks ago
Contraband and CD are both great records.
Long term I would expect CD to sell more because of the brand name. A kid in 2020 hears his great grandad's copy of AFD, thinks it's cool, so goes and buys the whole catalogue of the band. Same way people now might hear a doors song, a stones song or a beatles song and go buy them all. So it would make additional sales based not only on it's own quality but the strength of it's brothers.

#8335 Re: Guns N' Roses » SEBASTIAN BACH Says 'Chinese Democracy' Is 'The Definition Of Great Ro » 911 weeks ago
So can someone educate me on if Vinyl sounds better than lossless audio or CD quality audio (leave lossy and compressed formats like mp3 to die) and if so why?
I'm 31 but swapped from records to buying CDs around the time I was 15 I think....i'm genuinely interested...cos I always loved the tactile ness of records more...so i could be pursuaded to go get me another player and start getting everything new that way.
#8336 Re: Guns N' Roses » I have Post Traumatic Release Disorder!!! » 911 weeks ago
yeah we need to remember its real to them.
Like to me GNR is my favourite band, and Axl is a rock god and kickass frontman. And i'll always respect him for that, of course like any 2 humans, i wont always agree with what he does or says for sure.
But immagine if you lived with the guy, ate meals with him, hung out in the studio, in his house, I know i'd get pissy about the stuff people say about him online if I was that close.
#8337 Re: Guns N' Roses » Is it possible Axl is "boycotting" the album? » 911 weeks ago
When it fails, he doesn't have the out to say "we did everything we could". No you didn't man, you didn't promote it at all.
Maybe that's the idea. If it fails you can own the failure that way by going "well it's not that my music isn't liked, it's that the industry is fickle and i didn't want to jump through their hoops". would be an easier psychological release.
For the record...i think the album is great....and I think lots of people would like it if only they got more publicity going!
#8338 Re: Guns N' Roses » Horrible timeing for CD release. Press already moving on? » 911 weeks ago
II mean, he commented on the Dr. Pepper press release earlier this year, and now he doesn't have anything to say when his masterpiece has been released to the world?
I guess maybe the idea is to let the music do the talking, which is admirable in some ways, but at the same time, a few good interviews would get the music exposed to a lot more people who otherwise wouldn't even know all this has gone down.
#8339 Re: Guns N' Roses » Axl PWNS DR. PEPPER » 911 weeks ago
The irony for me was that the site worked when I tried it...but it's only for americans so us aussies miss out. And I probably jammed access for someone who could have claimed! 
#8340 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Steven Adler OWNS all new GNR drummers » 911 weeks ago
To be honest to me a drummer is a drummer, except Lars from metallica who always got my attention...oh and tommy lee is kinda cool. I sometimes wish things would go right for adler on a human level - but I don't have a problem with the replacement drummers.
