Spoilers leaked, but I've thought better than to post links to them

Decided on a whim to try out the 7 day PS Now trial. The selection of games isn't really great, but I did play and finish Journey within a few hours.
It was actually pretty cool and imaginative. I honestly think it's the kind of thing that should have been included as a free game for the Playstation 3 (had it been released then). There were certain shots that looked fantastic, but well I guess it is very short and is more like watching a children's film than playing a game.
It's worth sitting through for a few hours if you get it on the service, not sure about actually buying it though (due to the length).

Promo ahead of the start of the season on Sunday.
fyi I think the shots from 0:15-0:16 should be used in the tourism videos for this country.

I hope they had more to go off than just that.
It's worse than that. They didn't bother to check her tour dates.

I doubted that Slash would return, did I make any blanket statement pretending to have insider information (like certain people)? Nope.
Did I make some blanket statement that Pitman was still in the band after the facebook debacle? Nope, how would I know anyway?
http://www.gnrevolution.com/search.php Why don't you post the "statements" I made?
#1757 Re: Guns N' Roses » For the tour - Rules SG would have in place » 551 weeks ago
Look...
Axl, Slash and Duff have not played together for over 20 years time.
Taking that into consideration by also adding in three others which have NEVER played together and it will take some time to get the right chemistry going.
What I am trying to state here is that, to put emphasis on the fact that there is bound to be some jittering involved, making mistakes can and will happen.
Nerves. Maybe that is all there is to it.
Duff played as many dates as Tommy a few years back, he was practically already in the band playing Chinese Democracy material live. The only difference to this line-up is Slash unless he wants to suggest that Melissa is changing the way the material is played.
...And to be clear I'm not suggesting Slash is making mistakes, I'm saying there's no evidence whatsoever that Frank is causing Slash to play at a different tempo from the previously posted videos.
Smoking's issue with Frank, stems from the fact that he told some story last year to get attention about being told at a carwash that the Appetite-Line Up would be going on a world tour in 2016, when the rumors where floating around the press.

IT IS THE DRUMMERS JOB TO MAINTAIN TIME!!!
Then why have you been going on for the past few weeks about Frank speeding up the tempo? You're changing your complaint.

Alot of unpleasant reviews with digs taken at Axl from the usual crowds.
Guns N' Roses' Coachella Headlining Set Went Exactly as Expected
That is to say not well.
You didn't go to Coachella this weekend, because you prefer to save your time and money and watch the whole damn thing online anyway. So, good job, you smart person, who is not currently coming down from a bad trip or waking up in the middle of a field in California. You missed a newly-reunited Guns N' Roses give its big headlining performance. And it went just as poorly as expected!
Take a look at the above video. Axl Rose broke his foot recently and has been confined to a Dave Grohl-esque rock n' roll throne for live performances. So he's kind of just sitting there, wiggling around, kind of bouncing. It's awkward as hell. It's like watching someone's dad singing along to the classic rock radio station in the car. Axl's voice has been noticeably struggling in recent years, and he did his best last night, but it only makes things worse that he's sitting down and can't exactly project as he could standing. It's hard to watch, and it almost makes you wish he would have just had one of his classic Axl Rose stage meltdowns. But this Axl Rose today doesn't have any of that rockstar fire. No, the band started on time. He apologized from the stage about his foot: "Sorry, I can't do my thang." The Axl Rose your parents remember would have probably performed anyway and broken his other foot, or refused to play at all. Or played half a set, said fuck it, and ended the show early. He sure as hell wouldn't have apologized. How many millions did Guns N' Roses make for this show? How much more will they make in the subsequent tour? And this is what we get? Is this how we're supposed to remember Guns N' Roses now? This is sad.
In true Coachella fashion, the weekend also brought a few surprise appearances: AC/DC's guitarist Angus Young showed up to put some life in Guns N' Roses's set. Kanye West had a microphone malfunction during his surprise song with A$AP Rocky. Rihanna joined Calvin Harris on stage. And probably the best surprise appearance of the weekend, was Bernie Sanders' video introduction of Run the Jewels. Somehow, a 74-year-old senator from Vermont made for the most badass moment of a music festival.
