  1. Interesting question. I put the original guys pics into the Facebook FaceDouble program, and this is what it spit out. I could actually totally see these:

    Chad Lowe // Axl Rose

    Michael Pena // Slash

    Aaron Eckhart // Duff McKagan

    Fuck, I should be in casting.

  2. I talked with a promoter a few years ago that looked into it. GNR was between 400K and 600K I believe. This was in '06. AC/DC was around 1.1 mil. Bon Jovi 600K, Metallica 800K.

  3. When I first read Axl's tweet, I honestly cracked a big smile. I knew there would be some crazy drama. The fact that GNR might go back into the woods again for awhile was somehow intriguing.....

    It's hard to explain, but crazy shit like this that keeps me interested. Rock on, Axl. Do your thing, I'm with ya.

  4. Greatest frontman around, as in alive: Fuck yes, it's Axl.

    Greatest frontman ever: Freddie Mercury, hands down.

    Spot On!

    Seconded.

    I also think that many of you are judging Axl's current vocals from crappy, low-quality cell phone and YouTube videos.

    Clearly, a voice like Axl's will not translate the same with these recordings. Go to a show. If you saw Axl live in 1992 and again in 2010, you would be hard pressed to tell the difference.

  5. Definitely packing a few more lbs but I would say he actually looks very healthy. Still moves around the stage and hits all the notes as good as ever. Training harder and slimming down some would probably quiet the haters though.

  6. Isn't he currently competing in the World Rally Championship?

    He is, and he's really starting to figure it out, getting top five finishes. Even though he's only on the Citroen junior team, not the full factory effort. Will be cool to watch.

    It's really refreshing to see some knowledgeable race fans in here. Kimi is the man, probably the the outright fastest driver in the world today, if not always the most motivated. His GNR connections only make him that much more awesome.

  7. Great song, I really like it, because its not even close to being Guns' best.

    Go into a smallish room, play the album version of Paradise City at a volume just loud enough to cause permanent damage, and you will have the answer.
