Love it Hate it Accept it Debate it - You want 8 o'clock shows go find F-R-I-E-N-D-S or hit a cinema somewhere.. or you wanna be informed go catch the 10 o'clock news.. this is Rock N' Roll! Treat yourself don't cheat yourself thinking you're gonna go to school or work or whatever you "normally" do the next day. Oh and remember before you get high and never want to come down. "you can have anything you want but you better not take it from me!" This is Guns N'Roses and when the time is right the stage will ignite. Looking forward to sharing that with rockers soon!

Neemo got a lot of shit for saying he liked the concert and thought it was good. He wasn't attacking anyone. People were saying his opinion was wrong and he must be deaf. And he never said the performance was great. NEVER. He pointed out the weak points. Over exaggerating once again.
I've never heard Neemo or Russ use the "usual suspects" thing unless people are brining up mindless bullshit just to start an argument.
I said there were some over reactions about Rio, like people saying Axl would never perform again because it was so bad, and Axlin gave me negative karma because that "crossed the line." Heh? Just for that. Very ironic about over reacting.
We all know we can be more respectful around here. No need to tell people to STFU, call them losers, or shit like that. If you can't handle their opinions, ignore them. And I sure as hell know a lot of you hate being labled trolls, but you turn around and accuse others of it.
Sorry, but Ali got ganged up on by those "usual suspects" last night, thread was hijacked, again. And he wasn't saying anything awful. D actually started arguing in the Chile thread about something that happened some other day on some other forum. All because he was LOOKING to argue and start shit. Ridiculous.
Neemo is pretty damn level headed. And yeah, I do think someone should have put their foot down much, much sooner last night about the insults and thread hijacking. But I've never seen Neemo try to discredit any regular posters opinion here, because he disagreed with him. Even though I've annoyed him sometimes with some of my Ron posts
No need for the mudslinging, like Olorin said.
No, don't get it twisted. I couldn't "debate' i never "argue" with Ali over there due to the censorship, but I wanted to address his reply to me and this is the only forum I am able to freely express myself. So I only brought that here to reply to his question, not to "argue"

First episode was a pile of shit, but I admit it has grown on me and I actually loved and laughed my ass off at last week's episode.

#2178 Guns N' Roses » What "IF" Axl had released a solo album back in 1995 » 762 weeks ago

Indulge me for a moment on this thread, cause I have been thinking here lately, what possibly could've kept GNR together back then.
Part of me will always believe, had Slash's Snakepit album absolutely shit the bed and did terrible.. and Axl had released his own solo album and dominated, We'd have GNR in some form with Slash and Duff till this day.
Example I can give is my other favorite band Bon Jovi. After the New Jersey tour, this band was finished. Seriously it was over. Every one hated everybody, Jon especially since he got all the credit, lion's share of the money etc.
so what happened??? Jon releases Blaze Of Glory solo album, has a monster number 1 single, sells millions of albums by himself.. Richie Sambora's solo album absolutely bombed *although it is very fucking good*
anyhow, Jon's solo success basically showed the band, Get on board or Fuck off in the truest sense, and they have never had another problem since.
If u ever catch the Documentary on Showtime possibly on Youtube now "When We Were beautiful"
starts around 4:30 secs

continued: Lead Singer Disease thing: first couple mins then picks back up at 3:42 [youtube]fguhyIuo-GM&NR=1[/youtube]
he talks a lot about the Lead Singer syndrome thing that i always found very interesting and wondered if Axl felt the same/similar way.
So, my thought process is, Axl and Slash were sort of fighting for control of the band, Ego vs Ego..... So, if Axl puts out a solo album, like Jon, and absolutely proves without a shadow of a doubt how successful he could be by himself... Slash possibly would've fallen in line.
Now, they will never get back together for the simple fact, Slash has had more success than Axl since the breakup and there is absolutely no way either will give in to the other and admit fault or show weakness.
Sorry, this is damn near more of a blog type entry than something to possibly spur debate.. but just felt compelled to type/ask the question.

Can you say overreaction to one bad show on the part of some people on these boards? Roll Eyes
Ali
I said how so?
How so? That one performance would necessarily be representative of ALL his performances. That Axl could not sing at all and that because of that one performance, he was done. That to me is an overreaction and taking one data point and incorrectly extrapolating it to be representative of something that it isn't. Like in 2002. The bad night at the VMAs were NOT representative of the entire US tour.
And, yes, I know that's my opinion. And none of that is to "excuse" how he performed at Rio
Ali
Well... seeing how that tour ended.. one could say u were wrong cause it ended just how it started.
#2180 Re: Guns N' Roses » Santiago, Chile - October 5, 2011 » 762 weeks ago
Oh...
I said the same thing when people were saying he would probably retire because of it.
I don't even know why you go over there in the first place, D. I looked at the site a few times the last couple days and it seriously makes my head hurt everytime I start reading a thread.
I stay over there for the VR/EXGunner and the Fun N Games part mostly.. every once in a while I'll post in GNR section but few and far between.. I guess its just where I've spent so much time and posts there..... I feel I am one of the few objective both sides of the fence people left and If i left for good, they'd somehow win or something.. it sounds dumb I know.
I only post here normally bout GNR if i want to truly discuss things.
