Robby (Takac)Goo,Bassist of The Goo Goo Dolls rode an elevator with Axl Rose in Tokyo

[Subtle Signs]

I posted a comment jokingly on Robby Goo's Myspace about how the new Goo Goo Dolls album has taken from 2006-2010:

2006-2010?What is this,the Goo Goo Dolls version of Chinese Democracy? Hey Robby,what could you do with Axl Rose's 15 million dollar/ten year budget?!

Can't wait to hear the new album. I'm hoping for another day of release show at Town Ballroom like there was for Let Love In.

That's pretty cool, but I would have to talk to him.

[Deb Rose]

Why do people still misspell Axl's name? Geez, it's not that hard.

But, cool taking an elevator ride with Mr. Rose

OMG I was thinking the same fucking thing. Especially people who are actually musicians...

Plus, the OP spelled it correctly in the message sent to him.

He'd just read it... still thought "hey, there's an E there somewhere... I'll stick it here."

I met this dude and Johnny Rzeznik in the bar of a really posh Chinese eatery a number of years ago. Both were absolutely lit with eyes as red as the devil's dick and they were just munching down fried shrimp.

[RJ88]

YES! AXEL ROSE!

I really don't find it very funny. Hey Axl, watch this video:

I can't even watch it again after viewing it once. It makes me so sick. And this video is child's play compared to what you can really find out there.

[Gibbz]

Axl giggle.

[ColdHeartBreaker]

xGNRxSTARx has met everyone.

[PTZ]

No.

He's never met Triple H.

I cant believe Trent Reznor did a video for PETA. I thought he was cool

[ThinkAboutYou]

That would make a good song

I rode the elevator with Axl Rose

[bluesy]

Axl and his fucking fur coat again.

[ManetsBR]

That would make a good song

I rode the elevator with Axl Rose

:rofl-lol:

[Longpig]

People Spell Axl "Axel" because that's how "Axel" is normally/correctly spelt.

It's an easy mistake to make.

Robby seems like a cool guy though.

I'm glad he did it, that was fucking disgusting. I ain't a vegetarian or anything, but I make sure the majority of the meat I do eat comes from free range farms, and is prepared in the most humane way possible. Stuff like this really pisses me off. There's just no need for that.

Isn't that fur coat supposedly the reason Axl didn't show up in Philly, thus leading to the cancellation of the rest of the '02 tour?

Round two never came. The band went on a successful tour, but in the hours after their triumphant Madison Square Garden appearance, Mr. Rose was reportedly refused entry to the Manhattan nightclub Spa because he was wearing fur, which the club does not allow. That killed the mood. He didn't show up for the band's next performance, and the promoter canceled the rest of the tour.

[ThinkAboutYou]

The fur coat has a lot to answer to

PETA gets a bad rap because of some of their tactics and because they practically put down people who eat meat. But, they do get the word out there about the mistreatment and exploitation of animals. Reznor is a huge animal lover so I don't blame him for taking a stand with PETA on this. I would too.
