#291 Re: Guns N' Roses » 1 million fans to get Axl Rose on Larry King » 847 weeks ago
Larry King? No.
Now if you had said The Daily Show or Colbert Report... I'd be interested. Stephen Colbert seems to be a fan.
That's actually a great idea, Colbert is a place that they could do a performance of they wanted to, or Axl could just give an interview.
#292 Re: Guns N' Roses » what does Axl/GNR have to, to regain your interest 100% » 848 weeks ago
It's kind of an "any show" yet an "every show" for GNR rather of that period than anything wierd happening, the usual drunkenness etc, yet that's what makes it so interesting, as they're clearly good enough to blow any other band off the stage.
Agree with that, but I would even go a step further and add that you have to look at the effect they were able to have on a ton of us with that drunken, mistake filled performance. Just goes to show what they had.
It comes close to capturing some of that magic that exists when you see GNR live. When the whole becomes a lot more than the sum of the parts.
This is what the current GNR doesn't really have to me. Axl has went out and hired great, and in many cases more muscially advance parts, but the whole doesn't capture what used to be there.
I could say the same for Velvet Revolver and assorted other projects, but they're not calling themselves Guns N Roses.
#293 Re: The Sunset Strip » Black Crowes Discussion (THEY'RE BACK!!) » 849 weeks ago
The more I listen to this, the better it gets. It just doesn't get better than The Black Crowes!
I'm actually giving it my second listen as I type this.
I like it quite a but, but I would compare it to how I feel about Metallica's S&M album; Some songs completely blow me away, and other songs seem pretty well pointless to have done.
Unbelievably happy with it for $8 though.

Thanks for the reminder, I'm gonna have to pick this up for sure.
#295 Re: The Sunset Strip » Whiskey In The Morning (more free downloads) » 852 weeks ago
It's perfect for a bass drum head, it's simple, it stands out, and it's easy to recognize what you're parodying from across a room.
Not to mention what I already said "Fucking Awesome". If I had a band going I'd try to steal it somehow.
#296 Re: The Sunset Strip » Whiskey In The Morning (more free downloads) » 852 weeks ago
That's Fucking awesome.
Did you come up with the bottle thing yourself, or is it from something else? For the record, I know the Godfather reference, I mean the actual bottle.
#297 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » July 3rd show to be recorded and released on CD » 852 weeks ago
So, in this day an age, is there any reason why they wouldn't have just made this available for download?
#298 Re: The Garden » Ripping Audio from Youtube » 853 weeks ago
I haven't used it it a long time, but I've used http://www.listentoyoutube.com
It worked pretty well, but could be buggy as hell sometimes too.
#299 Re: The Sunset Strip » New BLS Songs and Tour with CLUTCH » 853 weeks ago
I'm really pissed that this tour doesn't come within 3 hours of me. Used to have one local venue that would bring in great shit like this, but they've been gone a couple years and no one has filled the void.
#300 Re: GNRevolution Madness » GnREvolution Grunge Madness - Discussion and Results Thread » 854 weeks ago
When I was 16 I thought Rooster was about chickenshit crank(which was some of the best crank on the market at that time). The fact it comes from what's pretty much a dope album sorta reinforced that point. Like a year or two later when actually listening closely I realized it was about a Vietnam vet.
A relative of Cantrell's (Father or Grandfather) I believe.
I'm not sure if it actually is or not, but due to a friend of mine changing one line in the song, I'm convinced No Excuses is about getting caught masterbating.
