Probably primary lyricist

Despite being true, am I the only one that found this line on the website a bit contentious, "Axl rose to fame as the lead vocalist and primary songwriter of Guns N' Roses?"

Was glad Lauren told Deacon about Sugar since I had no idea about her? I just want the whole Zende, Luna and RJ story to move on. It's too much and they keep saying the same stuff over and over again. Glad Brooke advised RJ some things. How can these people work together on Hope's line? Good luck. Well, Krissy can see Ava is not helping Sonny. We shall see if anyone will actually do something about Sonny. Still not sure Dex joining the police is a good idea. Every cop needs backup but it doesn' t look like any of those cops will have his back and if Anna is trying to get him to flip on Sonny not liking it at all. Why is everyone defending Cyrus? This is getting out of hand now. Maggie marrying Konstintine on Days is making me scream. This is so damn stupid. Maggie knows Victor didn't like him and they were enemies, so why is she doing this? Eventually Konstintine is going to use the card on John and probably want him to kill Maggie to get her money. HOpefully, him doing this shit will end him. I want Clyde done too. These guys have stayed too long. Not sure if Leo is going to tell EJ about Jude being Nicole's baby, but I doubt EJ will tell NIcole especially is it's not his baby and Eric's. I hope this is done by summer because Ari (Niciole) will be gone by then. I know a new Gabi is coming on too. I can tell GH is different due to the new writers. I just hope none of these stories stay too long. And don't get me started on Sam.

I don't get the impression that she was invited to come to his hotel. I think she's indicated before that she just went there. Maybe her presence wasn't a problem to anyone, but the same goes for the people who drive by his house.

Why did tptb have to ruin Ava and Nina's friendship? What a bummer, but I guess it is a good thing that Nina's eyes are opened a little because Ava is out for Ava only! Some people never change. Unlike Sonny who is pretty much off his meds cause his meds dose is so low so going around town shouting at people that he used to love like Carly. While Ava sits back and watches....just like Morgan! Disgusting. Only Joss is the one who kinda sees Ava for what she is doing but she needs to speak up more about it. And this Sugar storyline, wow! It is soooooo interesting, I am invested. I know you wanted Sheila gone but she is just so darn good at playing people you have to hate! But when Steffy finds out, well I mean all of the Forrestors, their heads are gonna be a rollin. But they can't be too surprised. I mean come on, she cut her own freakin toe off so people would think she got killed by a bear.

I think the reason slash doesn't use Strats or teles live is because they have single-coil pickups. They would cause a lot of unwanted noise due to how loud his amps are cranked. I deduced this from his Gibson Collection video on YT, he talks about trying to make the gold top les Paul with P-90's (a type of single coil-pickup) work with "all the Marshalls."

You talk most about university professionals, very different of another kind of employee.

This should be the mantra for the forum

Excellent news, another distribution channel for Axl to not release new music through, just what was needed

What a song man!!!!

Happy birthday love! I never got why they made it that shitty anyway

I’m as sceptical about a new album as it gets but I think after they released the leftovers and are still going to release another pair of them and considering everybody is busy… everybody except of uncle Axl, it would be only logical if they had given Axl material to work on while they’re on tour. I think it’s a possibility that that’s what they have decided to do when they took a break for 2024. Slash and Duff doing solo stuff while Axl writing and recording new vocals. But because it’s the most logical thing, it simply won’t happen. You have to be a pessimist as a GNR fan. Otherwise you will be disappointed. That’s a principle I guess.

I just put it in one of those sleeves that had those art images / lithos lol

Happy Birthday!

People think that the management's role is to force a release out from the artist. Even though Axl struggled a lot with CD, it wouldn't come out if didn't want to. It's the same thing now: the band is not releasing new music because Axl didn't want to work on it before. We don't even know if he's working on it right now, although it's very likely that home demos or even previous years recordings could be worked on (individually). It seems like everyone in the band but Axl would be more than ok to get together and write and release new things. Still, people think it's TB's job to force him to move on. He's not a baby.

Happy birthday! What an amazing gift. Some of us (including me) bitched about it because we are content starved and wanted demoes too, but when you dive into it, it is truly a must- have set. Those two concerts are phenomenal; the best live albums from GNR you can get. The Ritz Blu- Ray might be the best live video of the band in existence. I think this release is the best thing the band has put out since the reunion. I have the vinyl box and in terms of the insert, I agree. I just keep it on top of my Locked N' Loaded box in a stack of junk. I need to organize

Previous manager that not was yes-man all was fired for Axl.

I believe after, but I'm really not sure. I liked most of the guitars I heard. I'll have to give it another listen tonight.

I get the impression that Avi was INVITED by Guns ,TB, etc to spend the entire day with Guns, TB, etc. 💡 The people purposely driving by Axl's house hoping to see him are being creepy stalkers. 💡

I think people don't understand what TB do. Its very clear on the bands website, TB manage the business affairs of Guns N Roses and one would presume Axl Rose. For what ever reason people seem to think TB do everything. TB have never stated publicly, that they are a record label, booking agent, concert promotor, an A & R representative, video production company, legal representatives etc. From the outside, it' seems Axl has a lot of trust and faith in the Lebeis family and they offer him stability and loyalty within his own personal space. I think Vanessa plays a bigger part in Axl's day to day decision making, but flys under the radar compared to others in that family. That's understandable given members of the family have been involved in Axl's life for many years. The group that Axl has around him, seems to be working for Axl as he is clearly a very different person today, then 20 years ago, including being a much happier person in life. It's clear Axl himself with the help of those around him has exercised some demons from his past. I would suggest if members of the Lebeis family have been involved in that, then they have done their jobs as managers...

Why is he wearing underwear on stage?

VH1 had a "100 most controversial moments in Rock and Roll History," Countdown and the infamous Riverport Concert Riot was like number 10. I thought,"This Axl guy seems kind of like a Maniac, and I love it!" 🤣😜

I was JUST about to put,"Isn't DJ Ashba more of a clown than a joke?" But I put "mistake," at the last second. 💡🤔

The price put me off pulling the trigger, I'll see if I can snag a copy further down the line!

Yes, but not usually to question your strategic decisions. Like, you trust your driver to find the best route to the airport, and if you suggest a route and he tells you, "No, this way is better," than you trust that judgement because he's the expert, but you won't accept him to interfere with other parts of your business/operations. You hire management to realize your plans, not to tell you what the plans are supposed to be or to tell you how to get to the airport. You hire video creators to make you a video based on your vision, not to come up with that vision for you, or to tell you what route to take when driving to the airport. The point is, as a boss you hire people that are better at you at things that needs to be done, but the overall plans and strategy lies with you and your team. And the extent to which you empower your people/employees to make decisions within the limit of your plan/vision/idea, will vary. Sometimes you just give them the rough idea and they sketch out the details, other times you get into the details together with them. So is the driver a yes man when he drives you to the airport? No, that's his job. He would be a yes man if he took your directions when he knew they were bad. Because it is his job to know the best way and he should speak out when a bad decision is made within his sphere of professionality. Is the management team a yes team if them do what Axl tells them to do? No, of course not, that's their job. But most likely they are hired to also provide advice on business decisions, and we must assume Team Brazil, like previous managers, offer Axl advice when they see fit. If hey are supposed to provide advice and they don't, especially if they feel a bad decision is made, then yes, they are yes men. Of course we have no good insight into the decision making processes in GN'R and TB's role, but based on what previous managers have said, and also some hints from TB, it suggests they are providing advice and recommendations, but ultimately it is up to Axl to then decide and they to execute.
