I think Kurt had already refused to open for them at Axls request and had said a few negative things in the press about GnR so he took Courtneys jab at him pretty hard.

Axl may clarify some things that he views differently now than he did 30 years ago. I mean, I’m 42 now and cringe when I think about some shit I did 20 years ago. Best forgotten… lol slash and Axl had a lot of outsiders and yes men in their ears back then, that combined with alcohol and drugs was always a recipe for disaster. But with age comes wisdom. I’d assume there were a lot of misunderstandings back in the early 90s related to how the breakup went down and it took the pair of them to be sober and honest to see each others point of view and his book may reflect that.

Personally if I was Axl I would be mortified at writing my own biography. He would have to address so much pompous bullshit he did in the 90s. it would be embarrassing.

Always liked the YCBM full version with the Ahnold scene at the end. I was never a fan of the trilogy vids, even back then they always seemed so pompous and out of character for this band.

It’s sitting on the shelf next to the Better video.….. I blame Lars

mainly I’d choose songs that showcase Axls vocals but are lesser known songs to a casual fan. Rocket queen human being yesterday dead horse

Performance wise, nobody came close to Axl in his prime years. I always seem to break it down into three categories though: pre bike shorts. bike shorts.

Wow. That was shit

Why do they even play theses delayed release games and excuses? Nobody cares anymore. Even the doe hards don’t

Cool…. It’s the video for Better. CD promo starts now

This may be before Axl did all of that past regression therapy, at this point he may not have remembered a lot of childhood stuff.

I think it fucked his vocals more. He tried too hard to impress Angus. He was going ok in GnR but after his stint in AC/DC he wasn’t the same.

Axl wearing bike shorts and being a total diva kinda fucked them up, they were an easy target with the grunge crowd. I doubt they would have lasted the late 90s if they’d stuck together.

As far as a new album goes, I’m wondering if they’re taking the same path as UYI and clearing the slate? I remember an old interview where they said they recorded everything they had for UYI and put it out so that the next album of originals would be brand new stuff. It could be the same deal here, gradually release all the old CD era stuff and then go smash out a new album of slash stuff.

Anyone notice there’s a lyrical part missing before the solo on monsters right before the guitar solo, it’s definitely on the cell phone clip. From about 18- 30 seconds, then the solo kicks in. id love to know what Axls singing there. It’s got 8 more oooh ooohs and Axl saying something over it.
