We'll all be dead of Ebola before this happens. So don't worry.

DJ's definitely doing the right thing
Could not disagree w/this more.
In fact NONE of them have done the "right" thing. But that's a bit of a different debate. They're all a bunch of assholes ripping off people who believe in something that's dead & lost. Charlatans is what they are & dj is head honcho among them these days.

Random thought just occurred to me after your "stripped down" comment, Otto. Axl is often times accused of doing these tours and festivals as cash grabs. I agree with that to some extent. But if Axl was really looking for a cash grab, what is he doing having 8 band members on the payroll? What's with all the pyro?
Personally, I'd love a stripped down tour and actually think it would go a long way to re-establishing the band. It's hard to build familiarity with these band members for casual fans because there are just too many members to keep track of.
That's what people mean re cash grab - a way to keep the ship afloat.
& it's not even band members & pyro but the crew as well. In fairness they do put on a big production when they decide to bring it. (But it's all fluff & over compensation to try & disguise there being actually any genuine or meaningful in the performance; IMO it's imbalanced & misjudged somewhat.. Sometimes less is more but Axl has never subscribed to that notion & it's too late to start/stop now.)
But yes, undoubtly if Axl wanted/needed the big money he'd do what needs to be done. Unless his hands are tied legally in certain respects other than a reunion.. I figure he's comfortable w/his personal fortune & does what it takes to keep GnR somewhat solvent.

Vaughan/Farrell confirmed. Will give me plenty of ammo to mock this stupid piece of shite show. Looking forward to it. Vaughan some criminal mastermind philosopher, Farrell a crooked cop seemingly on vaughans payroll..
Hopefully Rachel macadams can be convinced into some gratuitous nudity..
#1595 Re: The Sunset Strip » Damon and Greengrass Returning to Bourne » 632 weeks ago
The Bourne betrayal.
Damon's too old now. Should stick to lame cowboy roles which are his bread & butter (tho he was like 1 of two funny things in the coens true grit remake - the other good thing was the hanging scene).
So is the director probably. I still haven't done that captain Tom hanks pirate show. Will maybe give it a spin 2night..

Anyone playing destiny? It's good, a bit subdued. Online hasn't really delivered as yet..
Will prob jump to ps4 if dragon age delivers. Should go dragon hunting together..

#1599 Re: Guns N' Roses » Ron Visiting Israel For Benefit Show » 640 weeks ago
your ignorance is preposterous & outrageous, but, sadly, not surprising.
& for someone keen on correcting spelling/grammar errors it's "there" not "their".
if you think the solution is as simple as Hamas recognising Israel's right to exist you've totally misread the situation. if you don't see it as an occupation then i don't know what to tell you. it's a baffling attitude of which the only explanation is rampant ignorance. what does the murder of a 12 year old girl have to do with a country's right to defend itself? preposterous.
& the original point i made in this thread, lest we forget, is that rock stars should be boycotting. just before anyone starts saying to take it to PM's.
