do u play football manager?

i'd rather go blind is p much my favourite song ever but i was a little worried about this one. i shouldn't have been. it's a decent cover. i'd prob have preferred her to tackle SCOM or DC (or even Brownstone!) but she still pulls it off with aplomb.

in his book duff explains his departure. something along the lines of - he'd gotten clean sober & healthy & had settled down w/a new family & he says it was then axl changed to being a "night person" (tho i always thought axl was a night person).
what he meant was he couldn't conform to the recording methods & was exasperated at the lack of progress & thought it wasn't worth the hassle anymore, that Guns no longer was something he really connected with.
he doesn't make it sound like a dictatorship but rather an unworkable relationship, which is ever so slightly different.

he obv doesn't want loaded to be a stadium band. they've been round long enough for people ton know their expectations & aims.

yep

tbh all the del interviews thruout the bands history have been "manipulating, self serving interviews". what is del's hold on axl anyway? and what is his job w/guns? tour manager? Press agent?
it's sad he's the only person axl'll trust to talk to...
