If the 1st album is below par, the critics, media, and fans will eat Axl alive.
yeah cuz the way he's doing things right now make it seem that he cares what the critics say...
As much as I love Bucket, he wasn't a replacement for Slash. Maybe in terms of technically prowess and ability but the guy just stood there. He didn't run around the stage or say something goofy into the mic.
and did you see the band in 2002? Cuz from where i was sitting the energy in the building was electric...and BH was mezmerizing...hell i have buddies who are the most critical motherfuckers alive, they made fun of BH up and down for being a fag with a mask and a chicken bucket...come showtime, they stood in awe of bucket that day and were amazed the guy is unreal....one freind said it was the second best show he's seen aside from Floyd's division bell tour
bootlegs and youtube dont do any show justice...you gotta be there to understand stage presence my freind.

There is no second album if the first doesn't hit a home run, so it would be counterproductive to load all the B list shit on the album that will make or break this band.
but like i said the quality of songs has nothign to do with the potential sales of CD...the sales figures all ride on curiosity...alot of people didnt really like COntraband...but it still made platinum...and then the second disk still had a market...but the only thing these days is that passing curiosity turns into downloads instead of album sales...so things need to be rethought a bit....we've basically heard a third of 2 albums worth of material....it might be like judging Randy Rhodes contributions to Ozzy's early career on these tracks from the 2 albums Randy Appeared on:
"Suicide Solution"
"No Bone Movies"
"Revelation (Mother Earth)"
"Steal Away (The Night)"
"Believer"
"Little Dolls"
"Tonight"
"S.A.T.O."
"Diary of a Madman"
which arent really that great even though there are also these masterpeices on those 2 disks
"I Don't Know"
"Crazy Train"
"Goodbye to Romance"
"Mr. Crowley"
"Over the Mountain"
"Flying High Again"
"You Can't Kill Rock and Roll"
again Ther is the potential for better songs than the ones we've already heard....but then again maybe these are the best tracks to be had....either way we shouldnt judge all the material until we've heard it all
#11693 Re: Guns N' Roses » GNRevolution Exclusive! Classic Rock Feb Mag Cover! » 979 weeks ago
they could be working on 2 albums simultaneously...if all the tracks were nearly finished in 01-02 and by jan 06 axl says that 26 are nearly done with 13 appearing on the album...I gotta go back to the trilogy comment
maybe the "A" list songs are reserved for the 2nd disk...the 1st disk will be big based on curiosity alone...the 2nd one has to support itself and build on the hype surrounding hte 2nd disk....if the 2nd album blows then there is no hype for disk 3
Where is
The General
This I love
Thyme
Seven
there are several really hyped up songs from 99-01 interviews that seem to be all but forgotten
there i stress again the 26 are nearly done comment...IF the songs listed up there are most of CD as it stands today (which BTW it has already been stated that Silkworms will not be on the album)
we've heard like 9 tracks...so there are 16 tracks we havent heard makes ya wonder

#11696 Re: Guns N' Roses » W.A.R.: The Unauthorized Biography of William Axl Rose (By Mick Wall) » 979 weeks ago
my problem with mick wall is that he's biased...and i think the peice will be biased...most journalists are already biased towards axl...and i can read those articles for free...i dont need to spend $20 to read more of the same...now if the book proves to be written otherwise i may get it....but i'm gonna wait for the reviews
#11697 Re: The Garden » Guitar Hero III - Legends of Rock » 979 weeks ago
i cant find it for the ps2 or the wii...i'll get it eventually though
#11698 Re: The Sunset Strip » STONE TEMPLE PILOTS to headline Rock On The Range Festival? » 979 weeks ago
well i am still of the opinion that stp will only do a few shows in the summer like Slash stated. I'd bet on a few show locations as well
Detroit, Ohio, San Fran, LA, Florida, Texas, NY, Washington, Boston
just hit some major centres and see how it goes....scott goes back and fulfills any obligations with VR then everyone makes an educated decision on their careers
we'll at least see one more VR tour and one more album IMO
