Like I always say monkey, there isn't one song on CD that couldn't have been improved by Slash..
Any notion that CD is too complex or whatever the fuck is bullshit

WoW still get new players?
Was playing gtao the other night & just assumed the guys were playing on their 2nd characters given their levels. I honestly couldn't face the grind of it starting out these days.
& no, I'm not talking about Neemo & his crew of lower ranking dudes hehe..
Even tho I'm a high rank I usually play like a nOOb for a variety of reasons.

No. Remember according to a certain poster on this forum both areas are no go zones for non-muslims
.
Well.. That's true too. Fair point to be made
Can't have everything I suppose. I really wanted to do that Sabbath tour..
In fairness tho in that Slash has never hidden his affinity for the place. Just people sometimes don't know what they've got.. Til it's gone!

I've seen him now and again refereed to as British, but you know how it is. You're right though, it never really gets pushed.
Like sports, if it's positive their British.. if it's negative their Northern Irish, Scottish or Welsh.
Even that 'Raised on the Sunset Strip', let's hope it takes him back to Stoke.
It's only the past few years Birmingham really started to grasp the history of Sabbath & there's defo a (small) market that people would visit Stoke as the birth place of Slash if they sold it properly. Like hardcore GnR fans if they're visiting England they'd travel to Stoke to see a plaque or statue..?? It's something for them to sell, no?
#1216 Re: Guns N' Roses » The Story Of Guns N' Roses' To Air On BBC FOUR In U.K. » 561 weeks ago
We heard from the AFD 5 plus Matt. No Dizzy or nu GNR. IS this a sign we get to see all these folks together?
I thought it was pretty telling who agreed & who didn't agree to participate. Seemed to me some people knew they were off the shitlist/didn't want to do any press/say anything that could be misconstrued.
I dunno tho. I don't see the point in Axl throwing Adler or Sorum a guest spot here or there or even full time. What's he got to gain from either of those two being in the band??
I think it was just p much par for the course for an unofficial doc tbh. They key players didn't need to voice their opinion/cash from the interview, others did/and/or didn't give a fuck anymore.
Canter's involvement was actually the weirdest one for me. What did he gain from it? & the stuff he has, reckless road & the concert footage, what does the big guy think of that stuff & does he want ownership of it? Canters footage & interview was the best thing on there for me.

I also think it's odd Stoke or the uk hasn't tried to claim more ownership over slash. Prob happen posthumously, unfortunately.
In terms of a knighthood or a queens honour (tho completely deserved - well, contribution to British music would be stretching it a little..??) I'd defo prefer him to take the keef route than that of sir mick. GnR are anti-establishment to me, an alternative & honest way. Granted the stones were a little different having been busted by the English police/state, but the point of rock n roll remains the same - antithesis/anathema to the status quo.
But yea, it's about time Stoke had a statue or something of the guy. Maybe they already do..??
I know the British music press, mojo especially, love him so I guess that goes some way. P sure he gets lifetime achievement awards or that shit from them..?? Wikipedia would maybe know..
The Man.

Ah yea I can see that now. Fuckin shit that. Cause there is definitely potential multiplayer fun to be had a la WoW but yea microtransactions have been one bad business model for gamers.
What do you make of the balance of gtao's microtransactions? It's completely different now than when it launched. Not only glitches but mission/race payouts were constantly nerfed/rebalanced. Oh god thinking back on the reaction of the playbase the day they changed rooftop rumble.. Flip me. & race payouts. So many people rage quit.
Interesting note - rooftop rumble was misnamed, takes place in a freaking parking lot. think it was meant to be called whatever that one that actually takes place on a rooftop of the building site..?? Ah what a game.. Used to spend 5 hours in freeroam then grind missions for a couple of hours trying to recoup the money lost. Well I wasn't recouping money cause I glitched it. Didn't glitch enough tho. I want a yacht.
Did get caught once on PS3 when modders were giving out billions. R* took it all away left me (& others) 50k! Fortunately another glitch popped up pretty quick after that.. Ugh the amount of hours spent duplicating & selling adders.. But I suppose if I hadn't done that I prob wouldn't still be playing. I tried world of tanks but that grind tho.. Can't do it.
