Nah... I haven't spent a dime on this band since the day CD came out... And since then I've pissed away twenty bucks on something more useless - I can't think of anything offhand, but I'm sure I have. So not really. Embarrassed maybe, not upset.

Nope, Axl is serving a lifetime ban from St. Louis.

I've heard this before, but banned by who??? Who are the people that could impose/enforce something like that?

Do you think Axl was behind this?

It's ironic that Axl would have a problem with too much AFD and not enough new stuff being played.

A few things were weird (My World, Get in the Ring), but that was a wonderful time - Appetite was forgotten for the moment.

Didn't you know that cameras of today can't capture the beauty of his voice?

But the compression destroys his voice only on the RECENT shows right?

It's these damn modern cameras that are the problem. If someone would record with an old-school camcorder we wouldn't have this problem!

Not a BBF fan but that is class. And congrats OP!

how many hours left?

6.5

I would have liked to have seen a re-release a couple years ago, but at this point I'm not interested in having the correct booklet/artwork - unless there's at the very least a new bonus track or two . . . .

LOL yeah he totally said that he'd do it but not for money ...

What does that letter mean? So what is it you're suggesting could be holding up an album that's not Axl Rose?

Try to sing Garden Of Eden ...

Yep, especially the "Most organized religions make a mockery of humanity ... " part.

Also whoever said "But you're such a stupid woman and I'm such a stupid man"

Not questioning mod decisions at all here so please don't take this the wrong way. I totally understand why you're being careful but surely any picture is public domain unless it's been reproduced for commercial gain?

It's not comercial gain here they are worried about, GN'R is worried about commercial loss.

If pictures are posted here, then there is no reason to pay a premium for message board on the official site. The whole thing is ridiculous in my opinion.

Hit the nail on the head

There is no reason to pay for the site. If they let you right-click to copy the photo then they are to blame.

thats cool and everything, but have you heard of print screen/screen capture? :xmassrudolph:

That can be supressed just as easily.

"Hematomas on articulations can reduce mobility of a member and present roughly the same symptoms as a fracture. In most cases, movement and exercise of the affected muscle is the best way to introduce the collection back into the blood stream."

Wait, he broke his member?!?

I don't know, but the title of this thread alone is hilarious.

Hmm... Pretty sure he'd have been able to spend that money had Axl been going.

I pity Dizzy for catching the shrapnel on this one..

It's gonna be pretty awkward for him if she shows

I would assume that Axl not going = Dizzy not going. He's been going wherever Axl's coattails take him for the last 21 years.

62 pages of hate? Wow. And some of you call yourselves fans.

I had zero expectations for the Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame. Why people are upset with Axl because he doesn't want to perform with a few people he doesn't like is beyond me. Axl and Slash haven't spoke to each other in something like 15 years. Get over it.

LEAVE AXL ALONE!!!

I just hope if he does that he has someone else do the writing, I can't follow more than 2 consecutive written sentences by him, much less a book ....

Some of u are missing the point.

The OP loves the band.

And all of us would prefer to see GnR at a small club, than at a stadium with 25000 people.

The point is that to sustain themselves as a band, they have to be able to make a profit touring. To put out new albums, to pay the band members enough so they don't quit, this band has to generate enough popularity and money to make it worthwhile for everybody involved.

Look at David Lee Roth.

In top of the world in van halen.

This popularity helped him get the financial background to release a couple successful albums with Vai and Sheehan.

Then what happened?

I saw DLR without Vai, without a hit record....in a club that probably held 500 people. I met and shook hands with Dave and the band before the show, as I was eating dinner in the cafe area of the club. Dave and the boys pulled up in a limo, cases of beer in hand, and walked through the cafe to go backstage. No security.

From being treated like a King to getting dropped off at the front door and having to carry your own beer. From having your pick of hot babes to chatting with guys while they eat pasta. From selling out 30,000 seat arenas to playing in front of 400 people.

Point?????

Five years before he attracted a super group of talent, toured arenas, label poured millions into his band and albums.

Five years later.....a David lee Roth solo album doesn't even get made. Labels have no interest. Reputable musicians don't want to play with him.

That is the danger if Axl just decides to do club shows.

While we might love to attend that show.....it basically means the death of the band and future material being released.

I for one would like the band to be successful too... But as I said, barring a new album, I'd only be interested in seeing them in a club. I think a new album would be a good thing for them, financially speaking. Done properly, they could probably even pull off a successful US arena tour.

So, I don't think I really missed any point... Point being, if they wanna be profitable/relevant, they oughtta release music once in a while.

Future GNR albums lol.

I think at this point I'd be shocked if anyone contributed to the writing of a future GNR album.

Personally, unless there's a new album, a club show is the only kind I'd be interested in going to.

Alternatively, he could sleep at night... To each his own.
