Honestly, I go away for one w/e and this happens.

The positive side says to me this is temporary or maybe he is using the end of his contract and the pending release of CD as a bargaining chip.

Unfortunately what I really am thinking is that if he were to have left temporarily, we would have heard that by now.

All in all doesn't make good reading, although I have to say I did like Robin in NIN before he joined GNR

Right now Axl needs to throw a frickin bone and do a decent update.

I saw VR at Brixton Academy last night.

They still put on a good rawk show IMO and Slash is still one of the coolest mofo's on earth.
I went with three girls who didn't know any VR songs, but still enjoyed it.

Robert and Slash must be quite close - two of Roberts son's have played in bands that have supported VR in the UK.

I haven't heard any of this yet, but its certainly caught my interest as a NIN fan.

Thought this part was interesting (see 'more info')

'The end result is a wildly varied body of music that we're able to present to the world in ways the confines of a major record label would never have allowed - from a 100% DRM-free, high-quality download, to the most luxurious physical package we've ever created.'

I'd love to see Axl do something like this with GN'R, although I appreciate the music may not lend itself to this kind of release.

I really hope the return of Guns N' Roses isn't marked by a single in The Hulk. Batman or Bond maybe, but not the hulk, please!

Pretty much confirms all the leaks are on the record doesn't it?
