Anybody going to see Black Label Society this year? Are they still touring with Sevendust and Dope?

Parts of this interview reminded me of the OMG press release
Yes, there is a certain incoherent rambling aspect that made this interview difficult to read and interpret.
yes, we here in the gnr community call that a "rant."

#1566 Re: Guns N' Roses » Pick one song.... » 927 weeks ago
ya if anything id say it grows OFF you. its one of the first songs that you can "get" in the first couple of listens. straight ahead rock. great song to run to.
#1567 Re: Guns N' Roses » Pick one song.... » 927 weeks ago
i still don't understand how SR went from like 85% favorable review when it first leaked to pretty much the worst song ever written by any band period.

Tommy is more prominent on the 2008 leaks. He has a killer bass tone on IRS, but Axl apparently wanted mindless wanking to drown it out on the finished product.
i dig the bass groove in if the world, too. he's also pretty good in street of dreams and catcher but when the songs get heavier he seems to just stick to the basic.

i love the solo on shacklers. its perfectly fits the mood of the song, just psychotic and frantic. Its like i envision somebody in that moment of being pushed past the breaking point and whipping out machines with the intention to slaughter. love it.
Robin's solos in better, SOD, and this i love are not exactly speed exercises and I tend to like them very much. i love his slides and bends.
bucket solo in IRS makes the song...maybe that isnt saying much.
Riad i'm not a huge fan of, bumble or bucket. I guess this is what you mean by yanking off.
I don't know. I like the solos, but i understand your point. That being said I don't think all of slash's solos on the old material are that great. I'm sitting here trying to sing solos from songs like Think About You and Shotgun Blues and Bad Apples and I honestly can't even remember them.

FlashFlood wrote:first and foremost nice post edit. second, you keep basing cd's success or lack thereof on what your friends say. so why not use the same standard on this U2 song? are your friends that dont like it saying "oh i dont like it i need to hear more songs" or this song fucking blows?
Ummm... yeah first and foremost I edited my post cause what I typed wasn't how I wanted it to come across. Gee that's what a post edit is for.
Secondly, Of my freinds who have heard Get On Your Boots I only know of six who have heard it. 4 of them didn't like it at all but all four came right out and said it's different and they're interested in the album because of that. One guy actually said "it sucks but it's kind of cool" That's a positive fail. Not a negative fail(CD) which is all I've heard based on my own personal experience. Excuse me for not jetsetting around the globe to gather opinions of random folks who have heard CD. The two of my friends that did like it simply said it was awesome. Not to mention the opinons of countless phone calls they put on air today from listener's pretty much echo what I'm saying to you. Sorry to burst your bubble but this song has made a much bigger impact on radio here(here where I live) than CD has alltogether. They've been talking about it nonstop since Friday when they knew it was coming out. That's not my fault man. If you're gonna hang out in a U2 thread in the hopes that I'll go all fanboy and start posting bullshit comments like EVERYONE I KNOW FUCKING LOVES IT than you're in for a big dissapointment. And if you're in here waitng for U2 to fail you're gonna be waiting forever man. Plus CD has nothing to do with this and if that's where you wanna take it man you're in for a harsh reality. This single and this album are gonna blow CD outta the water from a commercial success stand point. Not sure why you'd even wanna bring up CD or Gn'R in this thread. What's there to gain?
there is nothing to gain from it i just find it interesting that you could take everything you said in that original post and a chinese democracy fan could say the exact same thing. also, you do overuse your friends argument. do you know how many friends i have that LOVE, yes, LOVE CD? At least 12, but I don't go around flaunting my friends musical opinion likes its more important than anybody else.
also there is nothing different about me posting in a U2 thread and you posting in a new GNR thread. you have made it very clear that you do not like the album. ok you don't like the album, so stop bitching about it to everyone else with every opportunity you get. we alllll get it bono, cd was a commercial failure and its because the promotion was awful and the songs suck and axls a dick. fine, now move on.
