I sent that Rapidcityjournal a comment telling them of GNR's 2006 US thing a few days ago.. so maybe they changed it.

They were huge for about 5 years with just 2 original albums. Almost 20 YEARS AGO. Get real, D.
What trend was he chasing? There's not a song on CD that sounds like NIN. OMG didn't even sound like NIN. And we know IRS, TWAT, TIL and Catcher were at least as old if not older than OMG, there's no evidence he was ever making a pure industrial album.
And if takes sounding like Bon fucking Jovi to be a huge band I'd rather them be a bar band. Itmeans absolutely dick. I don't base my respect on the old era solely on how big they were.
Yes i think he was gonna do an industrial album and a shit ton of CD is Nu Metal.
so yeah, what was popular when he started working on CD? U got it, Nu Metal.

You have to give Bon Jovi credit for sticking it out over the years as well (U2 also). They survived the grunge period, which most 80's bands folded during. Granted they weren't quite as popular during those years, but they were active aside from Jon's solo effort and acting gigs. I always wondered if GNR could've gone on if they wanted to during that time. Would THEY have stayed relevant?
honestly, I don't think so because Axl, and this isn't a slight, but he is kind of a TREND chaser imo. whereas Bon Jovi and U2 and others stayed true to their devoted hardcore fanbase. Bon Jovi were still huge during Grunge. Bed Of Roses was one of the biggest hits of 1992-1993 and their Keep The Faith album still sold over 10 million worldwide and went at least double platinum in US.
With, Axl, its like he forgets he is Axl Rose.. he is a trend starter, not a trend chaser and i feel with OMG and some other things, he was chasing that NIN type trend instead of just being himself. so a giant part of me thinks he would've tried to fit with the current landscape.. i think OMG getting so poorly received made him alter his true plans for CD.
GNR being 17th isn't good. we as fans can spin shit to sound great but this is GNR. one of the greatest bands of all time and they can't sell out a fucking show? or even get a US tour? that isn't good.

had this not leaked yet??
if someone stumbles across the album and could Please Make sure i am aware of it, id appreciate it. his work on Slash's album makes me want to give them a chance. never heard them before.

yeah that 06 Better was pretty awesome will always hate the intro Finck's guitar sounds like a dentist drilling teeth and Axl's poppy vocal isn't my favorite but when that shit kicked in, it was head banging kick ass fucking awesome.
Then we get CD and the guitars are weak as shit sounding and we get Pitman's whatever the fuck.

still, it's a sad state of affairs when anyone is going to a bon fucking jovi concert.
no its cause when u go to a bon jovi show, u know its gonna kick ass, be professional, band will finish no matter what "See Jon performing through a torn calve muscle* and u are always gonna get ur money's worth every single time.
U don't have to worry about Jon walking off stage cause of one dick bag in a 20k audience.
