  1. Calling Slash "a Cancer" did more damage to Axl than it did to Slash.

    +1

    Axl was out of order. Without Slash, the world would have never know of Axl ;)

    Umm yes they would. They didn't even want Slash in the beginning. He was annoying and followed them everywhere until they gave in. It's easier to find guitarists then it is revolutionary, legendary, hall of fame frontmen. So in that regaurd, the world would have known of Axl, and it's easy to say Slash got lucky in landing the GNR guitarist gig.

  2. I just feel like every topic we make or discuss has GNR going backwards a step or two. Lets forget Bucket and Robin considering they have forgotten about GNR. Robin is with NIN, and bucket is tending to his chickens. I love the lineup and honestly hope they continue to do their own thing. Leave the past in the past.

    That was the point of this thread. They need to put that version of the band behind them, which means the songs they wrote too.

    This current version needs to write their own album, so they can feel a part of the band.

    Oh well in that case, they have to. There's too much potential here. We don't even know if they're re-recording any of the non exposed tracks. Axl just might be mixing them. Who knows. But my gut says they are adding Ashba to the cd. I'd honestly wouldn't like that, not because of Ashba don't get me wrong. if anything make it a 2 cd album where you have the original recorded lineup, then the new lineup mix.

  4. What if we had a link on the front page so we could hit up a live chatroom for mygnr members while browsing the forums? Just thinking outloud. Thought it would be a cool idea.

    One of those chat room addons you can get.

  5. -Brain came up with the original idea for the song (that's from Brain himself)

    -Marco Beltrami did orchestration for it (from Marco's website)

    -Bach says it's "by far the heaviest metal tune I've ever heard Axl do, it's this slow grinding riff with these high piercing vocals"

    -The General is heavy

    -The General is like Estranged

    And...

    -The General was heard already (some parts)<

    So... do you guys think it's Checkmate or any jam/solo played alive?

    I'm not a qualified therapist. I don't know a lot of shit about this, but I do know we're not in the 90's.

  6. No one knows Axl's voice better than Axl himself. The most she would have said is "If the song is hard to sing and damaging your voice then it's better in the long term not to sing it." Anyone else would give the same advice.

    Thats what I'm saying, Axl would take her advice, and why not? BETA advises him on what to say to the press and media.

  7. I'm not dissing the setlist, and this isn't a "lets bitch about the setlist thread". Do you think BETA might have an influential piece in what GNR plays? I was thinking about this. Axl stated he doesnt like the way he sounded on a few songs, so is it maybe some of the songs are too long? Chinese Democracy has some long songs on it, so I could understand not wanting to play a few of em. TWAT in my opinion sounds and feels difficult to perform, so does Rhiad and Catcher. Or do you think he wasn't happy with the sound live ? Maybe BETA advises him in a health perspective? Thoughts.

    We'll never know unless the man himself says something but I figured I'd try a different perspective.
