Winter Olympics in Russia was a clusterfuck as well
And the last Olympics in China wasn't much better
The only way that u can avoid this shit is to have indoor events...I doubt outdoor bodies of water in any country is 100% sanitary
The photo above is obviously a sensationalized photo...I seriously doubt that that is the average view of a waterway in Rio

Just got back from the midnight release...my daughter is a big fan of the books and this was a must for her
Anyway did anyone else attend the release...or plan on picking up the book?
I was shocked at the amount of people in the store tonight..Harry Potter fever is alive and well

It's his lyrics he can alter it as he wants?

I really doubt that demos and new tracks will outsell a GH...but I could be wrong

C'mon.....who doesn't like some unskinny bop once in a while 
As far as poison and warrant ... I don't seek it out ... but I gladly sing along when it comes on the radio
I'm more guitar driven tho...to hear robin drastically change some songs, especially patience, really rubbed me the wrong way
#916 Re: Guns N' Roses » Official band pic » 537 weeks ago
Lol I like poison, motley crue, warrant etc etc...no accounting for taste in guess lmao
Anyway no offense meant ID just trying to place ur general age is all...u have been a fan longer than me...I came on board in '88 w/ Patience and SCOM...hell it may have even been summer of 1990 when the days of thunder kohd and nobody's ch8ld civil war came out that became a fan...was a long time ago...memory is hazy...I do remember getting lies and afd on the same day and buying UYI 1 and 2 on cassette the day before they were officially released
Look I don't fault anyone for liking or preferring a particular Era of gnr...my favorite era is 87-93...for obvious reasons, and when I think of gnr I look back to SCOM, Jungle, patience and PC
I was 100% on board with a new gnr...seen them 6 times total between 2002 & 2011...I preferred the 2 shows w DJ the most tbh
But my favorite lineup is 92-93 ... Axl, Slash, Duff, Gilby, Dizzy and Matt...which I'm sure some people may look at me funny for that as well...since it's not a popular choice I'm sure
#917 Re: Guns N' Roses » Official band pic » 537 weeks ago
What is the real cd lineup tho?
By the time cd came out Richard, Ron and Frank had toured with the band as well
Anyway why/when did u become a gnr fan? Presumably CD wasn't your catalyst to get involved with being a fan of the band.
I like DJ & Ron ... felt they were more true to the original gnr sound than bucket and robin
#918 Re: Guns N' Roses » Official band pic » 537 weeks ago
Each of the original 5 had critical I put to the songs...and Matt stepped up bigtime when Adler got kicked
Just cuz the singer is highest in the mix doesn't mean he is the chief song writer...it's pretty clear that Izzy was a huge catalyst for most of their hits....Slash has a definitive lead sound, Duff's chemistry with both as well as the drummers is instrumental on knowing what to play and when and how...and Axl's input on lyrics, arrangement and delivery is also huge
Steven brings a loose swing on drums or Matt a heavier booming, more techical playing style (depending on your preference)
CD pretty much proves that one man does not make a band and u can't just piece together a bunch of isolated parts

Killer fucking show man. The crowd was pretty damn good too. They were into every song. The only song I noticed a little drag was This I Love. But it was great. Loved the intro Slash does for Better. Axl sounded really good overall. Struggled with Coma but that's really it from what I remember. Slash was on point the whole night. I didn't get kicked out or arrested which is always a plus.
the tailgating before was pretty epic. Lots of love. Gnr took the stage around 10. We skipped Lenny.
Cool stuff...glad u had a good time
In ur opinion what was the best song to witness with the 3 big dogs up there?
#920 Re: Guns N' Roses » Official band pic » 537 weeks ago
The good thing is that Axl certainly seems to be in a better place now. With Slash back on the stage, he's pretty much redeemed in the eyes of the mainstream. Hardcores wait for CD2, the rest of the world is curious for an album. It's been worse.
I wholeheartedly agree...but like Ragnar said...it's too bad that we had to miss out on arguably the prime career years of our favorite redheaded recluse in the process in order to arrive at 2016
