tsinindy Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 9 hours ago, Apollo said: It's always a fun time when bands care enough about their fans to share new music with them. Nobody said LA Guns were on the same level as GnR. Not even close. But they share their music with their fans. They do lots of interviews. And you can go see them in a small club for $20 and find yourself chatting with the band. It's really silly to downgrade what is a great experience for fans of the band because that band isn't as "popular" as GnR, who are one of the biggest bands in rock history. Did anybody claim they were more talented? Should we only like the most popular bands in the world? I'm confused about your comment. I like lots of bands that aren't on the same level as GnR, U2 or Metallica. There's nothing to be confused about, they are literally an inferior band. You like them or enjoy them, no problem.

Sosso Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 The Tracii Guns / Michael Grant guitar duo is really great. It's similar to Slash and Richard in GN'R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Music wise we cant compare them to GNR, but theyre waaay better than the likes of Poison, Warrant and even Skid Row. No love for Warrant, eh? TBH, I don't care for them either, but ever since I saw this scene in Bad Grandpa, I kind of started digging "Cherry Pie" as cheesy and corny as it is.

I just find it amusing that whenever somebody says something that isn't 100% praising GnR, some people feel like they have to go into attack mode and downgrade the other bands being talked about. ***** The Coverdale ripping Page off thing is a bit of a myth. It's funny that people bash on Page/Plant for ripping off old bands for their music. But then when Plant gets pissed at Coverdale for doing in album with Page....people take Plant's word as gospel? Were a couple of Whitesnake songs influenced by Led Zep? Of course. Just like pretty much every other 80s rock band in the world were influenced by them. Coverdale had a nice run with Deep Purple in the early 70s. And for a 4-5 album run in the 80s and earlier 90s, Whitesnake was pretty huge in the rock world, scoring 10 top 20 songs on the Billboard rock chart. To dismiss him - or Whitesnake - is just confusing "personal preference" with what is actually factual information. With that said....Personally, I am not a huge fan of his voice. The one thing I can appreciate though is in him releasing 18 studio albums (deep purple, Whitesnake, solo). I can only dream of what my music world would be like of Axl Rose had released even half that amount. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a Whitesnake item. oh thanks! So one of the members of the forum makes a (rather obvious) connection with GNR thread gets some replies, people join the discussion but it is probably not worth discussing it! right? because the author of "original story" didnt mention GNR! isnt it lovely when someones jarmoes a thread? and gives a proper reason to it? such fun!

Gracii Guns Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 @ludurigan I didn't say that it wasn't worth discussing. Please don't put words in my mouth. This is the busiest Guns N' Roses forum. I'd have probably let it slide if GN'R weren't doing anything. But if I let this thread stay, I'd have to for a whole host of irrelevant topics. Then it wouldn't be a GN'R discussion board, would it? Your thread got moved to a more relevant part of the forum, so there was a chance more Whitesnake fans might see it and participate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relevancy= is it relevant to the Guns N' Roses? Many bands released albums in 1987. Why do Whitesnake in this instance deserve special attention? Judging by the responses, I feel completely justified in not having a Whitesnake thread on our most visited page. You made the mistake of not posting it in My World in the first place. We have an order to the forum for a reason. It's not hard to understand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have strayed away from, the post that I directly responded to....which was Sosso said he was far more intrigued by LA Guns reunion as opposed to GnR. He made that comparison, so I felt it OK to actually *GASP* speak my opinioin too....wow the wonders of an internet forum. Have a good day.

Majestic Beast Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Mr.Coverdale tries to earn some money now that his voice gone forever and sounds live like shit,he tried that with the purple album with covers and it failed due to very low sales.Now it's 1987 anniversary,it's going to fail too,people bored to spent money to old same albums 20-30 years ago.

I'm sure if Cloverdale could sell out more than a small club I'm sure he'd rather be doing a stadium tour than a reissue. U2 did both. They managed to reissue Joshua Tree with a massive box set and sold out a massive stadium tour this summer in support of that. Now they're releasing a new single today and a new single again on September 6th and are getting ready to release a new album all the while still touring their Joshua Tree 30th anniversary stadium tour into the fall. Their new album by the way will be their third new album since CD was released. The fact you or anyone justify and defend GnR at this point is pathetic. Absolutely hilarious that anyone would have an either or attitude as if GnR touring makes it impossible to have reissued and properly celebrated AFD's 30th anniversary. But yeah David Coverdale only reissued Whitesnake's album because he can't tour stadium.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
