Dean Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Not in the public view in 7 years with no album in sight, I would not be surprised if Axl made it himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomfriend Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 The idea is funny. The animation is poor, but for the sake of a 30 second gag I guess it wasn't worth spending big bucks on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magisme Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I just thought it was a shit way to reintroduce the band after so long. Jokes about shitting himself and, what was it?, something about Coke or whatever. Even that couldn't ruin the first notes of jungle and the scream, though. The rest of the show kinda sucked, but those first few seconds, with the teasing intro, and the first scream, and the crowd - awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumblefeet Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I can't remember if they played the cartoon when I saw them at pukkelpop, but hearing the George C. Scott speech from Exorcist III (one of my fav movies) made me an instant fan. I wonder was that Axl's choice or Bucket's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAR41 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I am sure its not him, but the animation always reminded me of Peter Chung who drew Aeon Flux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
