Black Sabbath Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Whether or not this is a joke, it will not be seen that way by the media and readers and for that, Axl made a very careless and frankly stupid move.What careless and stupid about it? Seriously, I don't see anything wrong with this thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardNixon Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 it was pretty funny and very tongue-in-cheek, not really a diss to RHCP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Dog Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Everybody has been calling out RHCP for this, that pic with Flea and his bass unplugged has been everywhere. How come when Axl joins in it's the most God awful thing? I'm just glad the dude actually said something as a joke and not some essay about record labels and whatnot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Axl should be concentrating himself in sounding good for the next tour and not utterly awful as he's been sounding since Rio 2011 instead of making stupid and unfunny statements like this.

ManetsBR Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 It's clearly a crime for Axl to use playback. He made a joke about that. There were several times he could - and should - have used it, but he refused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, I don't see anything wrong with this thing...It's just really odd by Axl's typical way of thinking. He doesn't speak to the media and when he does, he's extremely careful about what he says. I over reacted in that post but I still think he shouldn't have said it out of fear that people won't see it as lightheartedly as he intended.

Danny Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Jesus tapdancing Christ. He's cracking jokes at the situation.Fuck. I love Axl but I fucking HATE Axl "fans". Morons. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 You guys really don't get what would be fucked up about it if Axl, of all fuckin' people, was taking unprovoked shots at a musical artist in the media? You really don't get it? You're GNR fans and you don't get it? I give up.He's not taking a shot, if anything he seems to be defending the whole ridiculous situation with humour. But I can see how people/the press could take it badly.I think it's surreal, bizarre, and utterly hilarious. Not so much the content of his statement but the fact that he made it. What a nutjob.Things like this that make me love him all over again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liers Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Anyone get the feeling that Axl was bored and drunk when he wrote this? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR DOOM Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Axl shouldn't give his opinion about trivial shit on the internet like that...anyway, what's with Axl's cane? This was meant to be ironic, by the way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
