But this silence is starting to turn against them, I think.
How so? & what would it matter anyhow?
Slash & Duff's silence is just further evidence of who is running the show. Too busy sucking off Axl's big fat teat to be bothered talking about GnR, too afraid of Beta's broom stick to talk about GnR. Big pussys. Tho of course I wouldn't say that to their faces..

yera the shield was great too. of course where walton goggins got his big break..
yea those were the best times for tv. ever since it's been a great show here or there & a few inconsistent one's. but back then it was just something else, mind blowing tv.

The one thing that was distracting was the commercials. Now I know, you are saying "But it's commercial free!" Yes and no. The commercials are built into the show, even built into the story at times. Like the reference to the PS Vita, or all the Apple products, or that one dude being a photographer and Canon equipment being featured prominently- even a Canon photo printer, and not a standard one, a huge one to make huge prints.
this. after watching it i dreamt of blackberry's & iphones. like the apple logo was burned into the back of my eyelids.
i watched the first season (& the first couple of s02) but couldn't be bothered with it.
#1104 Re: Guns N' Roses » GN'R Twitter Updates » 557 weeks ago
what a twat. he should've stood by his comments. so what a few noses get put out of joint. he was right in what he was saying.
unless he now thinks he wasn't right & that it is a cash grab/nostalgia/reunion trip..?? so he's effectively back peddling & saying he was wrong & admitting what everyone else was saying is correct??
sounds stupid to me.
glad he apologised? i'm disappointed! was disappointed anyway that he'd concern himself so much with what a freakin messageboard would be saying, let alone one as full of idiots as mygnr.
yea, i went there.. & i won't be apologising for it! i'll prob say worse later on when i have been drinking. & i won't apologise for that either!
#1105 Re: Guns N' Roses » Ex-GUNS N' ROSES Guitarist RON 'BUMBLEFOOT' THAL Wishes His Former Ban » 557 weeks ago
why are you guys saying he handled his departure poorly?? i don't remember..??
i just assumed he was tied to a NDA, & keeping his mouth shut (for a change) was quite respectful towards Axl & TB who had frankly treated him rather shabbily thru his tenure.. hell he was maybe still under contract for quite a while after Vegas..??
i actually have a lot of time for Ron & his contribution to GnR. he suffered a lot, suffered physically, to help keep the ship afloat during some of it's darkest years. he doesn't get enough credit for that imo.
& he tried to foster a relationship with the fans that was sorely absent before his arrival.
& as to his exchange with me, frankly he's not the first person to tell me to fuck myself! but i think it was mostly done in jest. he had riled some sensitive fans by replying to something & said "fuck GnR", like he had just had enough bullshit that particular day & didn't fancy talking about them any more. & of course it blew up, 'cause, surprisingly enough, GnR fans overreacted & it caused a(nother) storm in a teacup. (i posted on here "fuck gnr?! fuck bbf!"). let's be honest, who amongst us hasn't said "fuck gnr" at least once & been fed up with the bullshit? i'm pretty sure i say it daily reading some of the posts on here 
but overall it was always too easy to predict the trajectory of Ron's role in the band. we could all see it: GnR were there before Ron & there'd be a GnR after Ron. & so it's come to pass. like i say i do appreciate what he brought to the table even if it was merely as touring member.
if i was in the unenviable situation of having to be stuck in a lift with one of Ron, DJ or Finck i know who i would choose. while his style may not have been quintessential GnR i think his attitude was more a fit for the band than either DJ or Finck - i.e. he was honest & forthright.

I dunno what it's like for Atarilegend & APE but I always get a kick out of seeing these actors get called out for their US shows. For us over in this corner of the world McShane was already legendary due to his other credits, specifically a role he had in a comedy-crime show called Lovejoy (think Psyche set in an Englsih antiques store!).
Same sort thing has happened with Littlefinger/Aidan Gillen - tho he was probably somewhat well known to wider audiences due to his role on The Wire. Although, like Deadwood, nobody actually watched it at the time so maybe not..
It's good tho that they get the acclaim they deserve. McShane is great fun on screen. Deadwood really is part of the holy trinity of the golden era of tv - it, sopranos & the wire.

You shouldn't kill bugs. Trap them with a glass & a piece of paper & put them in someone's hair. Or outside.
Unless they're really big. Or poisonous.
Good work on the embeds. Looks good.
It's taken me this long to get the hang of embedding youtube videos & now you've just gone & changed the rules again!
& Silkworms.. Really?!
#1108 Re: Guns N' Roses » Izzy Stradlin 'Stuck in the Middle With You' » 557 weeks ago
Why would Axl break down? And it's not just about him this time.
Let Izzy make noise from the sidelines. People think this is so cool, but I think it's pathetic and childish. If he has issues, sort it out internally. Has he learned nothing from the past two decades? To create a twitter account just to take swipes and Axl, and on the eve of such an important time for Axl and the band, is selfish. Especially when you consider he is likely after more money.
I agree it's not cool: still airing their dirty laundry in public. Izzy has blotted his copybook for me with this public sniping.
I don't necessarily care if it's an important time for Axl or that he's being selfish, big fuckin deal. Axl's a big boy and can look after himself.
It's more that it's unbecoming behaviour. If he has something to say to Axl then say it to him & if Axl doesn't want to listen then tough shit - just bringing it into public is poor form & yea, that his motives for doing so are suspect.
We finally got past the years of Slash playing games with the media only for the next thing to happen is for Izzy to start up.. They oughta catch themselves on & start acting their age.

Davos to my eyes.. Tho my eyesight's shit!
#1110 Re: Guns N' Roses » Izzy Stradlin 'Stuck in the Middle With You' » 557 weeks ago
Nah he should just dedicate Sorry to Izzy at the shows.
Or better yet, post a cover tune himself.
