    I agree and don't really care if they release a new album. The material from Appetite and the Illusion albums Is so strong that it can carry them for the rest of their careers as It has for the past 30 years. There are countless articles online with facts and interviews from artists stating exactly what you said, albums are not profitable, period. From a business stand point their best bet Is to release a song or two and start the touring process all over again. They will have no problem playing arenas. Eventually they could reintroduce Izzy and Adler back into the band and sell the tour as the original 5 members.  

    Why not just release 12 songs on spotify and start a new tour? Doesn't have to be a physical release since everything is just promo for the tour (where the money is) anyway. Or do the spotify and limited vinyl run.

    I have to say I always rather liked ''Shadow of Your Love'', but I cannot bring myself to listen to this much because the entire ''boxset'' thingy is making me utterly nauseous. 

    I did listen to it once and it sounded like, well, ''Shadow of Your Love''!

    Never change my dude, your hot takes are needed in times like these.

    My turn, when they said destruction was coming, they meant destruction...to your wallet!

    That being said, the production on this is pretty great. Would love to see what they could do with the UYI stuff more than AFD.

    And that's okay. There are different breeds of fans - those fans like you who buy tickes no matter what currently to fill up the stadiums, leading to Axl getting away with not improving on certain songs and giving half hearted performances like the one I linked above. It's a vicious cycle that hopefully ends once the majority of fans and the public got over the euphoria of the reunion and when it stops to not matter if Axl would fart into the mic for 3 hours and people would still love it because they got to see these 3 live.

    I for one, refuse to buy tickets until Axl ups his game - he's got it in him and can be better than ever like he showed us with ACDC, but doesn't use it because all the shows are selling well still due to the reunion hype. I saw Axl DC and then GNR in Hannover. It was like a whole different person was singing for GNR. The power he had on the whole ACDC set was only there on a couple songs for GNR and the GNR show left me overall so disappointed after seeing AxlDC. Those of you who missed seeing Axl in ACDC last year - you missed hearing the real Axl Rose singing. It was absolutely mindblowing. It's just another reason why I'm sad people leave current GNR shows and are happy with those Axl performances..

    Maybe on a future tour he will rise above and beyond again when people will stop going because of the reunion but for a good show and a good Axl, and that's when he will have to start picking up his pace. As I said earlier, now is the time he can get away with those half hearted performances and I don't blame him, tickets sell, #1, so why try hader? And who knows, maybe Izzy or Steven will be there too on a future tour, and that will be the time to buy tickets again. I'm very optimistic about the future, atleast for Axl.

    Meh. If you go to a show, it's fun and his voice is mixed in and the mickey stuff doesn't stand out as much. Axl is showing up on time, is in good spirits and giving good energy and is back with Slash. I'm good with it can't find a ton to complain about. I just want a few new tunes. I don't even watch youtube vids of new live shows.

    Another take on the whole Axl's voice/rasp debate: is it just a coincidence that his voice has been consistently best when he's in better physical shape (like '06 and latter '10)...? 

    I wish we had recordings of his Vegas shows in late 2001. He was rocking a six pack and was in great shape but no freaking recordings (you should all be ashamed of yourselves if you went to those shows!).

  5. The ending is actually growing on me. Cooper is stuck in an endless loop of trying to make things right with the world while neglecting his own life. That's who he is. And not every character deserves a happy ending. It would go against what the show was all about for things to be wrapped up in a tidy little box.

    I guess you can't because the regime stops it. We are drone bombing, funding rebels on the ground that fuels war. They are trapped between two sides. How can we help them?

    Any money you give to the country goes into the family running the joint. Everyone else either joins them or gets thrown off a building. 

    I guess the people also worried if they go against the leader then if the US pull out they will be rounded up and killed. 

     

    Not everyone coming here is from a country actively at war. And then even from the war-torn countries, do they then go back when the war is over to rebuild their country?

    If you are going along with the liberal agenda of the multicultural world then you have to take the immigrants. Because the goal here is to liberate these countries from oppresdive regimes, right? 

    I guess the problem not everyone in the country taking immigrants wants to be multicultural and not all immigrants want to eat battered mars bar. 

    It's hard to say without complete government transparency. But if you take them at their word you have take in the refugees. 

    Help people in the countries they already live then.

    Women get raped by non "Islamic" refugees/immigrants too. Women get raped by men. Should they just lock all the men up? What about the women and children who are refugees? I guess they are raping women too? 

     

    Get real man, you make a risk the moment you walk out of your home and start your engine. You even risk staying home all day, chances are your roof can collapse on you. 

     

    So who's going to pay for these safe zones? How are we going to make them "Safe?" Either way it costs money, but if they resettle here, go to work they can be a benefit rather than a burden. 

    The difference in the rapes are one instance is completely preventable if these islamic migrants weren't let in. 

    Why do they have to resettle here? They can resettle in other Islamic countries. I'm sure they'd like it a lot more to not live with us infidels.

    Turkey has taken in more refugees than any other country along with Lebanon and Jordan. 

     

    Also, is there a connection between crime and immigration? Of course there is. There's always going to be crime when you get a group of people who are forced to leave their lives behind into a land they know little about nor its laws. That is up to the country to take them in to intergrate them. The US does a better job at this, though our screening process takes a long time. Sweden has done a great job with taking in huge numbers while dealing with the crime at the same time. For a country of 10 million where immigration is on the rise but they manage to keep the murder rate so low, it is remarkable. 

     

    Taking in refugees is the decent thing to do. Are their risks? Sure, but it is worth the risks. Its about helping people. If we are going to blow up their countries trying to kill terrorists, the least we can do is give them a home. If we actually follow up with wars and rebuild their nations, maybe they can go back? Millions of people are still trapped in war. Not just in Syria and Iraq, but also Yemen, Ukraine, Sudan, Somalia. If people want to flee just for another chance at life, why not let them have it?

    Tell the women who have been raped by Islamic refugees/immigrants about how decent this all is. I guess to make an omelette you have to crack a few eggs, right comrade?

    Also, I didn't cheerlead for these dumb wars (and I'm guessing neither have those women who have been raped) so I shouldn't be punished with these refugees.

    Yes.

    Americans convinced people who blew up pubs targeting innocent people of any religion, sold drugs and kneecaped people they didn't like were freedom fighters!

    Oh and republicans gave them money too at fund-raisers. 

    Sounds like John McCain and Lindsay Graham supporting the 'rebels' in Syria!

    First, his remarks were from six months ago, not in response to the latest attack in London.  Second, how is he wrong?  Large western cities will always be under threat from terrorists and that preparedness and vigilance is needed.  

    I don't see the issue here.   

    Why are London, New York, and Paris such big targets of terror but Tokyo isn't?

    Another statist heard from. 

    US governments since world war I have killed 4 million muslims. If a few are pissed off blame your government/EU/Nato. 

    Welp, all the more reason for strict immigration then!

    And honestly, I was never a cheerleader for Middle Eastern wars, so don't attack me!

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/03/17/erdogan-calls-turkish-families-have-five-children-bulwark-against/

     Turkey’s president urged “his brothers and sisters in Europe” to begin a baby boom in their new countries. “Have not just three but five children,” he told his flag-waving audience. 

    Mr Erdoğan is in the midst of a closely-fought referendum campaign in which he is asking voters to grant him sweeping new powers that would potentially let him stay in office until 2029. 

    These would be words of war in previous era's. 

    Does anyone want to take a stab at what Mr. Erdogan meant when he was threatening Europe with more refugees? Is he implying the refugees are bad for Europe? Anyone?

  14. So I found this to be interesting.

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/turkey-threatens-send-europe-15-000-refugees-month-103814107.html

    Quote

    Turkey's Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu has threatened to "blow the mind" of Europe by sending 15,000 refugees a month to EU territory, in an intensifying dispute with the bloc.

    So Turkey is literally threatening Europe with more refugees. I find this interesting because Turkey is implying that more refugees means something bad for Europe. The left has said for years diversity is a strength and these refugees enrich the societies they go to. So is Turkey really threatening Europe with something that will 'enrich' them or do they truly believe more migrants means something bad for Europe? Discuss.
