I personally like the fucking lunacy
Like during the Chinese democracy build up things would look promising and then you'd read oh fuck me he's chewed a security guards leg and the rest of the tour is cancelled.

One of them said in an interview might have been duff
It's fucked up but In a realy beautiful way
I think axls bipolar diagnosis or whatever diagnosis he has and the chaos is why the music was so intense and why it resonated to much with me as a teenager

I read mygnr and  forums in general and they are all hyper critical.
It's afuckinf  miracle they aren't all dead.

Axl suffered with his mental health
Duff's pancreas exploded and slash actually died a few times.

I think we will get more music because they're mentioned it so much and monsters proves some stuff is ready for release

But whichever way we get to hear it it won't be normal and that's fine by me
I read someone post "I've tired of guns and roses" like they are some  Peter o'toole character lounging on a regency sofa turning his nose up in disgust.

Tired have you?
Then fuck off
Fuck off and listen to Coldplay
They release an album every three days but I can't rememebr a fucking note of the bland shite they've released.

I don't want predictable bland normal
I want guns n fucking roses

I saw them at wembley a couple of weeks back
And no it wasn't the same as Milton Keynes 93
But axl doesn't have a delorian

I still had non guns m roses fans thanking me for taking them to the concert
It was still gnr and it's still fucking great.

Thanks all! Kind of reminds me of the rumoured Axl collaboration with another rapper (Shaq?). Clearly there's a gnr / hip hop album in a parallel universe somewhere waiting to come out!

I think Axl said (possibly in the forum chats) that Shaq happened to be in the next studio, Didn't sound like there was any actual plan to do and release something, think they were just messing around in the studio for a few hours, at least that's the vibe I got from reading all that stuff years ago.

There was a rumour in the early to mid 2000's that Nas was going to do something with them. Seems mostly forgotten by people now, and was probably just clickbait nonsense. i remember it being 'reported' on one of those sites that post spurious information. I remember when BITW leaked thinking that it was clearly meant to have a rapper on the verses, I would expect that it was meant to at some point.

do you have any more info on the nas thing? that's really interesting, never heard that rumor before. he's my favorite rapper, that would have been cool as fuck.

Damn, Axl's really singing out of time there.

Jesus christ that's bad...

I haven't really listened to the IEM thing except clips, but that bootleg should make it clear if they use a click these days or not. If not then he probably just needs drums louder in his IEM.

I'll admit I haven't seen or heard much from this tour but the bits I have heard sound awful.

It’s tough to please everyone. People have been complaining he can’t hit the high notes anymore and should sing with his lower voice, so he does it and now that sucks? Can’t win with everyone. Actually thought his voice sounded good. Sure he was rushed and behind at the beginning but cut them some slack. First time ever performing the song. Axl probably hasn’t sung it in 30+ years.

I applaud them for switching things up a bit and playing some different songs on this tour as opposed to the same set list every night. I haven’t been following it super closely either but that’s how it seems to me.
