Popular Post Use Your Delusion II Posted December 1, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2016 Guys, the band was playing a show in a Country that our President-elect has promised to block off with a giant wall and then deport a bunch of people back to. I think this was intended to be a gesture of solidarity with the Mexican fans rather than an Anti-American demonstration. I highly doubt we'll see the same sort of shenanigans in, say...Japan. I see why some people don't like it, but at least consider the setting. Not a big deal, in my opinion. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Mexico should take down the wall between them and Guatemala to show a sign of solidarity with Axl. Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would he lose Trump voters? I've never heard that they lost fans over OIAM. That song is not my cup of tea. Still I'm a die hard GN'R fan and I love Axl. He is and he will always be my all time favorite singer despite that one song. I would find it silly if now fans who are Trump supporters no longer go to the shows. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smoking guns Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 One in a million is Axl's best vocals ever. The song doesn't bother me but then again, I didn't see visuals of them beating pinatas of blacks and immigrants and gays. The visual is just horrible.

Negative or positive balance? I doubt they lost too many fans. Axl sings "Turn around B***h I got a use for you" in front of tens of thousands of women at every show. I think most fans hold their rock stars to a fairly low standard of behavior/PCness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoking guns Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Guys, GNR appealed to the Trump voter. First they sound a lot like Skynyrd with some Aerosmith, AC/DC, and the Stones mixed in. 95% of all Skynyard and probably AC/DC fans are Trump folks. Stones and Aerosmith probably 50/50. It is just stupid as fuck to go there. So not only do we not get DDM, Slither, Perfect Crime, but we get some bullshit cheese from Axl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok but nobody gets paid without Axl...he doesn't care about his career. He cares about this enough to make a statement though I agree that promoters aren't exactly jumping up and down but again Trump's popularity isn't exactly on the rise. the only people that don't like this are the people that complain our country is too sensitive but get their feelings hurt over celebs making political statements...

Stockholm Syndrome Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I wonder what Johnny Ramone would have said about this shit... Probably: "God bless President Trump, and God bless America"! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6lake sa66ath Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Any shots of the merch from either of these Mexican shows? They showed a Mexican flag Bullet Logo tee in their most recently uploaded concert video so I'm wondering if that's legit or they decided to include an image of bootleg merch in an official band recording for some reason ?
