#6521 Re: Guns N' Roses » SR's leak plausibility and potential timeframe (informed speculation) » 927 weeks ago
I gotta say that:
1. I don't think management has EVER leaked anything. Period. You don't give away unfinished music that cost 13 million to make-certainly not songs that have such shitty vocals and mixing. Sorry....it makes NO sense and Axl's response to the leaks has been anything but positive.
2. People like Incognito, MSL, and darknemus are walking a very thin line between clever and stupid.:haha: The music industry is going to fight back against leakers at some point and a huge Gnr release may be something to take a stand on. Axl already has a certain disdain for a portion of his fanbase. I don't think it is out of the question that he would go after someone like Incognito/BBA who has been openly hostile to the new band for years. I am not even considering the fact that someone from the label may get involved....someone like Jimmy Iovine.
I see nothing wrong with working behind the scenes in pm's and text messages. But, openly going to large fan forums and huge music industry sites doing the shit is just stupid.:headbang:

I am fairly certain it is a contractual issue with the game. If someone pays you enough to keep it off ITUNES until the release of the game, you take the money upfront........a bird in hand so to say.

ID, I think they would give if Axl gave...splitting hairs here. Izzy could use the money as he missed out on the huge UYI touring money. Axl has the score to settle with UNI. As for Duff and Slash, Duff's interest in business and finance will lead him in the right direction. Slash, he'll do whatever....free spirit.:slash:

Slash who?........Perry Farrell's wife is an absolute knockout!:bed::drool:

Id, all parties involved are smart enough to figure it out. Too much money at stake to not cut a deal.
7's, nice....just not sure how it relates to a Westerberg dedication to Johnny Thunders... Are you talking about the instability in the industry for artists?
#6526 Re: Guns N' Roses » GNR, Rock Band, the VMAs and 4 albums » 928 weeks ago
Axl doesn't have to hand over control of anything....he owns the band name and has the ultimate veto. If he pays the other guys enough for a reunion, it will happen. Azoff is known for reunions....not saying I want one, just saying that is what he does.:/

Faldor, I agree that PRIDE is going to come in to the equation big time. Axl is not going to abandon 14 years of recording.....no way. Azoff's main challenge is to reconcile both....the release of the Chinese sessions AND a reunion.

and that is the onion....:sick:

Monkey, I think you are right on point about the cd recording sessions and the stalemate over who "owns" the material because it was mastered and finished on Axl's dime. But, I think a reunion is tied in to the bigger picture for sure.
