Hopefully it doesn't become a big deal. Either it's not true so it doesn't matter or it it is true. So if it is true the guy had 80 thousand people waiting for him and he or someone around him thought it might be a good idea to try and and get to the concert in reasonable time.  I don't have a problem with that. At least there was concern on their behalf that 80 thousand angry people might be a problem...better to care than not....and the situation was assessed and help declined...no harm done.  Hardly prima-Donna behaviour that any story might suggest.  So not really an issue either way in my book. 

Yea, I thought it wasn't a big of an issue as far as I can see. Maybe some other things happen, who knows...

I think Susan is really missing having her own career and as for Meegan has anyone else here noticed she seems really shy. It seems like she hides her face a lot in pics.

As a model, she had her career when it was her time and very successful, btw, so I don't see how could she miss it. She's not a frustrated woman. She's done what she wanted when it was the time and that's it.

Now she's an enterpreneur and has her own bathing suits brand. That's what she does.

The jealousy she gets from some fans it is really dumb. We are talking about people in their 40's and 50's. And the fans are not so far away from that age.

I'd understand the fans of Justin Bieber getting jealous at his girlfriends. The GN'R fans being jealous of the wife of Duff??? his wife for almost 20 years....? :facepalm:

 

Meegan is very sweet and I don't see anything wrong with her either. Maybe sometimes she shares too much but her IG is private so.... whomever can see her pictures is because they asked to follow her.

It doesn't look to me that she's shy or whatever. She's just who she is.

Just came back from Steven's interview thread

Anyone has seen it? :facepalm:

I feel more confortable talking about this issue here.

I believe every word Steven says. It is pretty much what he said when he did the AMA. This time he explained his back injury. Having said that the fact remains that Axl, Slash and Duff don't need him nor Izzy at this point. This tour is huge success. GN'R is at the top world again. For Axl, Slash and Duff that's the bottom line. Are they acting like jerks with Adler and Izzy? Yes. Am I disappointed that they are acting like jerks? Yes. But they couldn't care less about how I or any of us feels. And I don't think Steven being outspoken and Izzy asking to split the loot equaly is helpful for them in anyway. They have to put their differences aside BEHIND CLOSE DOORS. I don't need their Civil War. We or most of us want the AFD 5 on stage and we want more music from them. Chances are is not going to happen. We, the fans, are always in the losing side

whoooah!

If this is not some sort of prank you're playing on us..................... I feel the urge to declare THIS comment THE BEST SO FAR in the sequel of the Women's Thread!!! :rofl-lol::rofl-lol::rofl-lol:

@Frey what you waiting for to add this to the Index???

:lol:

No prank, finally I got no more patience. :lol: I actually have a really explosive temper and I'm quick to judge something critically, but I tried to hold back and be as patient and understanding as possible over here. After all, I thought, if they finally reunited after 20 years, there's hope for everything - so I held back on my complaints (that others were very vocal about btw) since it only leads to pro-Axl vs anti-Axl and pro-old band vs pro-hybrid band arguments. And I have enough of those in real life :lol:... But this was the last straw. It's clear they aren't planning to change anything anytime soon, and by the time they come to their senses, they'll be humus in the soil.

I read that there was a power outage according to some of the fans replys on the GnR Facebook post. I wonder if this possibly caused him to be late. He probably was stuck in traffic and panicked trying to get a police escort to no avail but if the other band members were there then it doesn't make him look good. I'm looking for more info on it.

http://www.tv3.ie/xpose/article/entertainment-news/231475/Traffic-trouble-made-Axl-Rose-late-for-Australian-gig

People on facebook did not mind the late start at all....tons of comments like these... Thank God they were late.. Causes there was still thousands waiting to get into the MCG due to the traffic, so they actually did the right thing by their fans again.

aaaah :confused:

did anything in particular happened today?

Your complaints are very funny to read so I was not sure you were being serious or what but they certainly hold some awful truths that it is hard to decide whether to laugh or cry. :lol:

I still think the experience of going to the show makes it worth pay a ticket to see them. This may be the last time we see them looking somewhat "not so bad" yet, haha...

I have the feeling we won't see Axl looking better than this in the future, so get it while you can.... as Janis would say :P

Well, the Steven Adler interview is what set me off. It confirmed enough things to allow us to fill in the rest of the gaps ourselves.

Haha, yeah I felt sort of obliged to throw some humor in there since the situation is, really, laughable at best.

Well, maybe I would've considered going if they came to my country but I'm not going out of my way to travel across Europe to follow them around like a lost, addicted puppy. I would only do that for a band I respect, and frankly, they completely lost that. And the hybrid thing just doesn't sound and look good enough for me to try and ignore their complete lack of integrity.

And Axl might as well grow back his moustache at this point, it will represent the band and his state of mind perfectly. :max: I don't care, he can look as awful as he pleases and this time I'm not going to defend him, I'm going to laugh at him along with the casuals. There's only so many buttons you can push.

P.S. But I'm still going to look for Slaxl pictures because even after all this shit, they give me life. :smiley-confused2:

:rofl-lol:

Yeah, unless you got a lot of money, travelling abroad to see them is a lot of effort not everybody is willing to do.

I saw them in my country but I  had to travel as well and I spent a chunk of money doing that but I made sure I was going to be close to the stage so I could see these old fucks and make my money worth what I paid for.

In my case, it was great, I saw the 3 of them very close and confirmed they are real :lol:. Plus, I got to see Steven Adler and that was a real "not in this lifetime" dream for me so what else can I ask for?

Band sounds great live but I reckon that watching this shit on YouTube and Periscope is a drag and following every show through these means, at some point, wears you out so the lack of surprises every night makes it really boring after a while.

lol the Slaxl is NONEXISTENT :rofl-lol: in 2017..... It was real back in the old days, it is not anymore but ok....... if people wanna fantasize about it, they can.

It's a free world :devilshades:

I beg to differ, they have so much in common these days, they're practically twins. They both constantly wear hats to hide their balding heads, they're both sellouts, corporate, politically correct off the scales, fat (yeah, yeah, not really but not enough to be attractive :lol:), greeeeeedy, they're playing the Mr. Nice Guy card (which is basically Axl going completely against his nature and being a liar), showing up on time and living on the road, having a good time on stage, making up lame inside jokes, sharing their fascination with animals, looking at fans as if they're brainless pieces of meat that don't understand them at all and are completely dissociated from the audience, they're stiff, stuck up, rich beyond our wildest dreams... Yeah, seems like a pretty good camaraderie to me. :P

What a major fucking let-down. I can't hold it in, anymore, guys, I can't hold it in. :lol:

It's a cash-grab and they're all sellouts (well, maybe friends now, too, but fuck them).

Frank sucks. Simple as that. I could probably play those songs better and I know fuck all about drumming. Axl sounds like Mickey on the most important songs. Coma is a usually a disappointment. His moves are like those of a sexually frustrated grandpa after a knee surgery. Seriously, what the fuck is he doing during ISE with those thursts?! The fucking setlist is half made up of covers. I like The fuckin' Seeker, sue me :P. Fortus is too loud and gets too many solo spots and he moves too much like a ballerina on crack. Slash is a god, but only onstage. He's better off with SMKC, where at least his music was real. Duff's boring this tour. And his gym fascination gives me anxiety.

They didn't let Izzy and Steven in for a full reunion.

Speaking of Izzy and Steven:

Izzy's not a princess to a fault. He's a shady and greedy guy with a dirty past who would also be in it for "the loot".

Steven's completely and utterly unreliable. To some extent I see why they didn't include him. They had their doubts about him and his sobriety and he goes and gets wrecked on the second rehearsal. That probably sent the band into a panic and they decided on the safest road. Not to mention they all have the no-speaking policy that Steven most likely agreed to and subsequently broke completely. I admire the fact that he spoke his mind truthfully and I'm glad he didn't compromise his thoughts for them, but from the band's perspective that is probably a tell-tale sign there's no way they're letting him back in - he'll spill every little secret they have.

Any new music we get (if we even get any) is going to be in the style of Fall to Pieces and Better. No actual rock n' roll from Axl Rose and his yes-men.

The only consistently good thing from this reunion is WTTJ. Except Axl can't do his serpentine dance anymore so it has to be listened to, not watched. Oh, which reminds me, his hair is absolutely God-awful. Sticking out everywhere like a lunatic's. And not in the sexy I'd-drop-my-panties-the-second-I-lay-my-eyes-on-him way like in the Jungle video, but like a unkempt, uncaring, grumpy old man's. Oh, not to mention he looks even worse with the boots and as for THOSE GRANDMA HATS:

image.jpg

 

Fuck, man. :fuckyou::anger::max:

Edit: Dizzy and his 9 boyfriends Reed and Mrs. Radchill Reese are so forgettable I completely missed them in my rant. They're less than cogs in the machine. I prefer Tracy and Roberta and I couldn't stand those two either. Which reminds me, fuck KOHD and its 15 minutes of epicness SHIT. And same goes for NR and its Mickeyish out-of-tempo crap. Get on the piano, you lazy top hat wearing reptile. Also, they completely butchered the slow and calming masterpiece of a song that is Wish You Were Here with those brainless shredding jerk-offs. And don't get me started on YCBM and RQ.

P.S. If I'm too profane someone notify me. :lol:

 

HOLY SHIT!! There you have all the truths we know but are too chicken-shit to say! You go girl!! Oh I love this place :wub:

Wow, @nonok what a brilliant post, tell it as it is!

This made me laugh, "Except Axl can't do his serpentine dance anymore so it has to be listened to, not watched."

Crying, "NR and its Mickeyish out-of-tempo crap. Get on the piano, you lazy top hat wearing reptile"

"And don't get me started on YCBM and RQ."  Please go ahead, would love to hear it, don't hold back.

Hi girls and guys,

 

I've been a lurker on this section since past year, and it's my favorite section on this forum:).  This is my 1st post.

I initially got into this crazy beautiful GN'R group when I was younger, and I only love the AFD5 lineup, all 5 original guys.  However, I'm a huge Slaxl girl, yes I love Axl and Slash in their own beautiful, charming, explosive,  talented and crazy ways.:heart: I love their beautiful, timeless music !!  And their crazy stories also. 

I'm private, so I'll post occasionally. Please keep the Slaxl haha  stories, pics controversies  coming and stuff about all original guys , .  I love it

Every time I read the Steven Interview thread, I feel the need to come back here and to Izzy's thread. It's like two different worlds.

Thanks @nonok for those wonderful posts. I agree with most of what you said and you also made me laugh which is much needed today.

:lol: Glad you guys agree with me. I technically could go on and on about how...

RQ really sucks and the tempo is just wrong and there's no groove and Axl's Mickey as shit (no amount of pretending will alter the reality that RQ is a sex song that only sounds good with grit, rasp and sleaze) and what the fuck is Fortus doing with that solo and why the fuck did they make him play dual guitar underneath Slash's solo (during the coda) and Slash's talkbox solo is boring and nothing special compared to his Conspirators Rocket Queen and he fucks up the slide solo too many times and it looks like the band don't know for how many bars to play the rhythm before the slide solo begins, oh and did I mention that Axl sounds Mickey as shit (except for the coda sometimes) because he does...

But that would be a bit overkill, I think. :lol:

No, wait, actually, WHY is Frank doing that fast drumming thing on the cymbals during the end of Patience (I don't know the proper term, sorry), I mean I know NuGuns did it but that's supposed to be in the past, and that fast-ass tempo just doesn't work with GNR ballads. Is the dude high? I think he is. He must be if he thinks that kind of low tier drumming belongs in Guns. And his introduction to November Rain is just cringeworthy.

Why is there piano in Nightrain? Just...no. They could just pay Dizzy less, he won't mind.

Oh, God, SCOM is so soulless and awful. Zero rasp, zero soul in the rhythm, the only redeeming thing is the Solo, but fucking Ferrer speeds up so much (happens during the Estranged middle and final solos, too) that Slash struggles to keep up and it sounds rushed and forced. The demo for this song is so slow and emotional and raw that I can't stand the current version. :anger:

How the hell did I forget to mention the shitfest that is CD songs (except for CD itself)? How, for Christ's sake, can you have a catalog of such amazing songs and play Catcher in the Fucking Rye and Better?! And TIL depresses me, it's so damn self-pitying and Slash's solo only worked the first two times (in Vegas) and then he got tired of it and just started shredding like a madman.

By the way, Axl looks like he sold his neck for chins with double the face area. In like, every single picture. You can't kill a stage presence of his caliber, but he sure gives it his all trying, what with all that silly waving and that thrusting and his chubby version of belly dancing.

Oh crap. I went overkill. :nervous:Don't make me do this anymore, once the dam is broken it's hard to pull it back in. :P
