BTW - You're screen name is eerily similar to mine..? Care to explain?
my screen mane is similar to yours because i was trying to be like you. i want to be you.you are my hero. i want to skin you alive and wear your skin so that i know what it's like to be you. i watch you at night through your window. i think about you all the time........................
All the ways you wish you could be, that's me. I look like you wanna look, I fuck like you wanna fuck, I am smart, capable, and most importantly, I am free in all the ways that you are not.
j/k, my life's pretty boring. Drink beer, watch tv, go out once in a while.
I was gonna go to bed soon, but you might have just forced me to stay up and watch Fight Club.

Are we taking odds on whether or not Dizzy's solo album is out before Chinese Democracy?

The question mark at the end of the subject made me laugh really hard.

There's not a chance in hell they'd play new songs during a reunion show, unless it was totally fresh material being worked for a fourth album.
Considering the fact that all Axl plays is the old catalog, there's not much doubt that a reunion show would be nothing but classic GN'R songs. Hopefully some more ILLUSION material will re-emerge.
I'd just like to step in and make a point that I'm sure James or Neemo would be happy to agree with me on. How many bands do you see play more than 3-4 songs from an album that isn't out yet? none. the reason is because people would hear a new song, and judge it from a live performance. You think a record company would want that to happen? no. Just please keep that in mind. People assume that because they've only played 3-4 new songs during a show that they wouldn't play more.
I saw a certain band in May of '91. That band had two albums that weren't coming out until September. That band played 15 songs that night, 9 of those 15 were off of those two forthcoming albums.

I remember watching the MTV coverage of the concert that I believe was at Alpine Valley in WI and thinking I should have been there.
It was, and it was awesome. My first show ever.
#796 Re: The Garden » Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream » 946 weeks ago
I thought Steven Colbert's Americone Dream was pretty fantastic. It's got carmel in it, but it somehow was the consistency of those Caramello candy bars, even though the ice cream was frozen.
I don't know how that works, but it was awesome.
There's also a kind that combines that chocolate fudge brownie with chocolate chip cookie dough, it's called "Half Baked".
I can hear myself getting fatter just thinking about this.

Just picked it up. Only heard about the first 5 songs or so but I love it. Sounds close to the black album. Definitely better than Load & all for me. Funny story, I was at the checkout line & the black girl at the register picks it up, looks at it, and says "Damn everyone's buying this."
Fuck yeah, two thumbs up!!
When I bought mine Friday night I saw a friend of mine walk up to the next register over with his copy. I walked up behind him, looked at the cashier and said,
"So, How many white guys that look like one of us have you seen today?"
Without even looking to see who I was, my friend without missing a beat said,
"All of em."
Just a funny story that PASnow's story made me think of.
I'm digging the album more every time I listen to it... and I didn't dislike it at first.
#798 Re: The Garden » Jake "The Snake" Implodes » 947 weeks ago
The guy he was wrestling that night wrote a blog about the night. I don't remember where I saw it though. I had clicked multiple links to get to it. But it was an "interesting" read too. I'll see if I can find it again.
Edit: This isn't the same place that I read it before, but it's what I was talking about. There's also a blog by Jake's former sister in law (for some reason). I'll warn you though, the wrestler guy needs to learn how to type/spell and make breaks for paragraphs.
#799 Re: The Garden » US and China in secret talks on N Korea chaos fears » 947 weeks ago
reports that the country's diminutive bouffant-haired dictator
That made me laugh so hard I could barely read the rest of the story.
In all seriousness, North Korea has always scared me more than Iraq, Iran, China, whatever. Crazy leader.
Yeah, crazy leader who spends all his money on the military, not statues of himself. Ok, not all his money, he still has tons of crazy shit dedicated to himself, but you know what I mean.
#800 Re: Guns N' Roses » Shacklers Revenge on the radio » 947 weeks ago
it ain't yesteryears "apple-pie on the 4th of July with a Camarro" GNR.!
That made me want apple pie.
I'm not joking at all.
On topic though, I think your point is absolutely right about divide. I don't know that I'd call it "cultural"(although I think you might have been partially joking to help make your point).
Either way, the divide you mentioned is very real, and is going to be one of the biggest things they're gonna have to overcome. A good friend of mine is hugely against any of the new stuff simply because GNR was "sacred to him", and Axl taking it over from how it was isn't right. Like you said, he could care less about what might actually be in the music, it's simply the idea of it that he hates, and can't get past.
Shackler's got played on the radio here right after it leaked, a local radio personality that I know got ahold of it from "somewhere". He got a cease and desist afterwards though.
