She's definitely good looking, but she hasn't made a good movie in forever.
She was awesome in both Woody Allen movies - Match Point & Vicky Cristina Barcelona.

Chinese Democracy will sell 20 million copies ...eventually....if not, I got mine, that's all that counts! (hugging cd cover right now)
-
I would have to guess that since Axl usually writes all the melodies, and gets final say on everything, that it would sound pretty much like CD.
-
interesting but couldn't listen to the whole thing, I got a headache followed by a nosebleed.
-
I'd settle for a VHS of the show.
-
we can't blame the venue, but Axl can.
seems they didn't really do their homework about his usual late arrival.
Personally, if I was from Vancouver, I'd be pissed that the organizers not GnR.
-
this topic is about personal perspective
for me, I agree, GnR, best band ever.
but I understand other's opinions.

Did I hear Axl saying at the end "Do I have power now?" Was his mic out and instead of having a blowup like the old Axl, he just went into a Pink Floyd song until his mic was fixed?
Or maybe he was just kidding and felt like doing that song?
either way, Axl looked very cool and sounded awesome. It really looked like he had a blast during that tour.
What happened was that during YCBM (if I can remember well) he turned around and threw his mic stand towards the back curtain, under which sits the piano when it's not in use. Well, he threw it so hard (like a javelin throw) that it went through the curtain and knocked out some wires from under the piano. So when they brought it out for November Rain, it wasn't working, so they improvised until it was ready. It was a cool moment.

Just shows how the media can spin things against someone however they want.
"Axl is the type of bully that jumps into the crowd and punches out one of his fans for taking a picture" WTF???? Isn't the truth really that there were Hells Angels in the crowd bullying other kids and he thought that the one guy taking a picture was a Hells Angels???
No wonder Axl hates the media.
One dude in the documentary says that he was just a normal kid, but then says he was mouthing off and always picked on. Again, you might not believe that Lafayette was conservative and shit, but it definitely was hostile to Axl.
Plus, I wouldn't fucking pick on Axl's comments about his 'insensitivity" to concentration camps...obviously he didn't fucking say it was worse, he just related to it as an illustration...plus that was said years ago before political correctness where people just said shit without thinking of people's feelings...oh, wait, Axl still does that, good for him.

nice pics

He can play that VH song when they tour together this summer... jk

Jesus Christ, well a few years ago I went to a bar after work on a Friday, like most of the stories here......I got drunk. So this was after the RAR show, June I think. Needless to say, I was fucking pumped for GnR. Well anyway, I was well above the limit, so I couldn't drive. I somehow remembered that I needed to go somewhere after work at around 7. It was about 7:45, I was drunk, and I REALLY needed to go to this place. I my friend offers to drive me to this location. I say "Dude.......maybe.....actually you know what, Yea, drive me". While I was in the car I found a black bandanna in his glove box. So I put the bandanna on and pretend i'm Axl.......but when your drunk you don't pretend. I finally get to the place, sit down in a seat, and keep quite for about 10 minutes. So to give you a visual, I'm drunk, wearing a bandanna and a really casual dress shirt........at this place. I see a mic and since I'm Axl, I HAVE to sing into it. I go up in front of about 150 people and scream "DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE FUCK YOU AARRRREEEEEE!!!". But that's not the worst part, the bad part was that I was at my friends mother's funeral.
100% true.....unfortunately.
Bet you're not still friends, huh?
Spot on......
just curious, how did you think you sounded? did you hit the note at least? lol

sleep in the snow for three nights with bums in line for tickets....got a huge fucking cold from that one. - guess it wasn't stupid, got 2nd row center.
i dont understand why people show up so early to shows when they're on the floor. i went to the ottawa show this past january, we got to the floor halfway through danko jones' set and were about 10 rows back. by the time GN'R hit the stage we were 5-6 rows back and during the encore we were 2-3 rows back
He was waiting on line for tickets to the show.
oh
either way, i dont get it. it's better to get them on the internet now adays
This was in 1993...no fucking internet...of course I got my tickets to the Canadian shows on the net this time around...but back then, we had to camp out with our bottles of Jack and our ghetto-blasters with GnR Lies playing all night long in the fucking cold! and BTW - it wasn't General Admission back then either.

No Slash = Happy Axl

Listening to chinese democracy
I think what you meant to say is...listening to Chinese Democracy only once.

How much for the pictures of Axl blowing his nose?

sounds like cheap karaoke

Here's something to consider, as much as I love getting text messages from Axl on my iPhone via Twitter, is it possible that where we would normally get Axl's aggression in the form of an awesome song, he is now exercising his demons (i.e. feelings and emotions) through this new medium.
Is it possible that this could hurt his songwriting?
Obviously the man will be fine in that aspect, but one can't help but wonder about having only one outlet for expression and throwing yourself completely into it.
Would we still have songs like Get In The Ring (for example) if he could have said the same thing to Bob Guccione in Twitter at the time?
-
I really don't understand why people keep responding to gnr-cupcake-dave.
Second it.
good point, my bad. I will try to ignore him from now on...., but damn, that little bastard gets on my nerves!!!
-
That's the longest tweet I've ever seen, and it's freaking awesome!!!!!!!!
That tweet shows how far Axl has gone off the deep end.
Axl is being honest and is giving his opinion, you want to judge his mental state because you apparently have a PHD in human psychology, then I guess we should all bow down to your observation and cash in our GnR credits, cause god forbid we'd follow a rock star who's a little wacky.
-
I've always seen it as an explanation for his actions. Why he doesn't want to sell out and couldn't just continue with the old GnR just for the money.
He says in the song, that we knew what type of guy he was when he first met us, and that hasn't changed, so why are we to expect anything else. Plus I think he is commenting on the media and their bloodsucking tendencies to make money off of sensationalism and other people's misery.
-
I love Axl's responses... I do fear however, that he is giving too much attention to those bloodsucking 'reporters' who comment on every bullshit rumor. Although he has probably learned that ignoring them just leads to more abuse, so he is fighting back, guess that's why we love the guy.

I'd like to report that Axl had diarrhea and was spotted buying a box of Imodium at the pharmacy at the corner of King and Main. Just a rumor I heard and wanted to pass along.
