The aclaim they get is when GNR tours. It feels good to have people screaming at you when you play on stage. Yes most of them are there just for axl - but doesn't mean it wouldn't feel good to rip into a solo for thousands of fans!
#9475 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Is VR Over? (Poll) » 959 weeks ago
I have an interview here from a local mag (done before the Aussie Tour cancellation) where slash says he is working on new riffs for VR album 3.
I know the scott thing changes everything, but i thought i'd share that - cos its the first noise i'd heard from him about more VR in the future - when it seemed him and scott had been talking solo stuff.

Since there won't be big money in just marketing some pre-made, pre-researched phony music act, we'll see a lot more people making music for the love of it.
That will be a good thing i must agree. I'm so over seeing talentless goodlooking people auto-tune singing to songs written by others.

I disagree. With high quality "home studios" available in every price range, there's be no shortage high quality stuff available.
I agree with Russ, more musicians can and will go the home studio route and it sounds just as professional as if it was mixed and mastered in a "professional" studio so not only will the record co's take a hit, the studios out there could as well.
I disagree. I do a lot of my own recording at home, and while it sounds cool compared to like the old tape-based recording stuff of the past....i think you can always hear a difference when something has been progessionally mixed and mastered. We might have some of the gear - but not the training - theres a real talent to mastering something properly.
Then again maybe my pc gear and I just suck.
I mean stuff sounds cool that i hear out there...but i don't think it sounds as cool as like a real cd from a high end studio does.

Ummmmm......have you ever heard of this place called Iraq?
I'm not saying theres no vested interest in the iraq war. I mean no country ever does anything that it doesn't have some interest in the outcome of. However I think the current iraq war needs to be looked at in context of the 1990 war.
Saddam took over Kuwait. They asked the USA for assistance. That's why there was a war there. Yes maybe the usa wouldn't have given a shit if Kuwait had no oil, but the usa didn't start that problem, Saddam did. The first gulf war could have been ended with an invasion of iraq then if the usa had wanted, but they took a softer approach of sanctions, no-fly zones and weapons inspectors. Saddam then spent 10 years playing cat and mouse with the inspections and generally breaking as many of the terms of the agreement as possible. Then post 9/11 - the usa was not in the mood to continue such game playing. Saddam miscalculated that. But my point is - the current gulf war is a direct result of nothing other than the first gulf war - which was not started by the usa.

if the CIA created 911 to install western power in the middle east...wouldn't they have done a better job to linking the deads with places the west would actually find useful there. It wouldn't be afganistain...and even bush had trouble linking iraq to 911 directly.
They would have picked the places with the absolute most oil weath and stretegic power and made it OBVIOUS that the people came from there..and then gone and taken them directly.
No offense, but you really need to do some research on this subject before posting about it. For years, the USA & England had hoped to build a pipeline through Afghanistan, but were unable to due to the unstable political scene there. Well guess what? Looks like that billions upon billions of $$$ pipeline is a go afterall. Only took a few months after 9/11 to get it going. It's almost as if they had it planned out....
They needed a triggering event
