Plus all of "the relationship stuff" has to be in the show or else it would just be called "The News" except it would be 2 years late.
very true
#2202 Re: The Sunset Strip » The Killers Discussion » 748 weeks ago
this band annoys me no end.
begrudgingly i have to admit they have some good singles - mr brightside fucken slayed e when it first came out.
but they are such fucken pretty-boys i just wanna smash their faces in. like they found the picture-perfect hipster indie-kids & then hyped the fuck outta them.
but i do admit they do have something more about them. which is prob why they're annoying. if they were just another backstreet boy/new kids on the block thing then it'd be easier to ignore them. but since they're really the only american pop-band around it's hard to avoid them..
#2203 Re: Guns N' Roses » so what did i miss? » 748 weeks ago
Oh I agree that's why it was nixed as a Pay Per View event, but they said they'd be releasing it at a later date in some form or fashion. Well, it's later.
Another little white lie..
R u on the official forum? Maybe they'll be able to answer what later means..??
#2204 Re: Guns N' Roses » GUNS N' ROSES: Israeli TV Report (Axl drinking shots at a bar) » 748 weeks ago
@ the risk of re-igniting a stoopid thread, I don't even think GnR should be in Israel in the first place! 
Drinking w/'regular folk' or not is a secondary issue..
#2205 Re: Guns N' Roses » State of GNRevolution (PLEASE READ, discuss) » 748 weeks ago
Yea I'd tend to agree w/ppp on that one.
Aussie why do u think Slash'd have a different tone? Has he said anything post-HoF about Axl?
Certainly it gives him more ammo to turn the fans against Axl if he wanted to pursue that angle. But it looks to me that Slash is almost a little fed-up w/the GnR question & Axl blame-game..
#2206 Re: The Sunset Strip » The Newsroom (Now on HBO) » 748 weeks ago
There is some good stuff in here but swamped by guff id have to fast forward if I am to continue watching: the blonde haired lunar faced girl w/anxiety attacks & the ditzy British exec who is meant to be some super-smart journo.. basically the relationship crap. Basically I don't find the wit & warmth generated worthwhile & the cast p ugly & unlovable.

#2210 Re: Guns N' Roses » Gods of Metal June 22nd » 749 weeks ago
Yeah, I don't know who's doing that, though. Most of us have accepted since 1987 that Axl is a spoiled brat, and don't really hold him to any type of noble standard. The one member here who probably holds him to that higher standard than most, from what I can tell, is John.
it's not just Axl, i guess i just have high standards.... defo high anyway..
& maybe it's more i enjoy apportioning blame.
but he's lied & failed so often. it does get a little boring sometimes.
e.g.
Oh sure. When I went to see them in November, my friends expected the worst.
it should never have even come to this.
hell you'll still hear @ concerts people saying "i suppose we're lucky he turned up at all".
he just won't work hard enough, or has the ability, to change the script.
the point is, he's promised more than he's delivered.
& it's the simple things that are wrong that leaves the whole thing w/no chance of prospering. bob dylan's 219 & he changes things up every night. he cant sing for shit either anymore of course. when tom waits tours he changes it up every time. neil young changes it up. springsteen. even elton & macca released more albums since UYI.
my point here is the greats aren't doing what axl's doing. & they're even more ancient.
GnR should belong in that class. but he's not measuring up to standard. either on output or performance.
what exactly is he good for these days....??
he's a travelling salesman.
