      Only if they played more CHiDem songs than AFD I think...I think I would even call them NuGuns if that happened.....:lol:

      True enough but I highly doubt anyone would call the AFD lineup NuGuns should they all get on stage together

  5. April 2016 issue of Classic Rock has a young Axl on the cover and features an articles on the reunion and the 87 British Tour. Reunion article claims the following from what I can remember

    1. They will play Chinese Democracy and Madagscar

    2. Axl gets 50%, Slash and Izzy get 35% shares

    3. They are grossing $3 million a gig

      The rest of the band most likely gets a salary...pretty sure this is how Axl paid NuGuns so should not be anything new for the hired help...

      LOL, yes it must be a Freudian slip s I have been thinking about Izzy lately......:lol:

      Also Slash and Duff are reported to get 25% each not 35% as this would be more than 100%.....is there anyway to edit a status or do you have to delete and repost?

      You could be right Broue as I don't have time to read all the threads to compare to the article but there most likely was nothing new in the article. The article on the 87 British tour was a more interesting read for me but again did not give the hardcore fan anything new.

  8. One word to describe Izzy? Until he's on stage I'm going with selfish

    1. classicrawker

      classicrawker

      I have no bitterness towards Axl Billsfan as I don't think he owes me anything just as I don't think Izzy owes me anything.......but if you were being honest you would see Axl  has had nothing but contempt for his fans in the past so I think it is being naive for anyone to think he is doing this reunion for the fans.....

  11. think i got a case of altitude sickness :(.  the plains here are quite beautiful

      Saw a special on growers in Colorado who are raising plant strains specifically for pain relief that have very low levels of THC but high levels of the compound that gives pain relief and also helps children who have seizures. Pretty amazing stuff but of course some politicians are so afraid of legalizing that they will not consider the possible real medical applications not the BS business in California where anyone can get a medical card.

      I was a regular smoker in my 20's but gave it up after I went back  to college and can't wait for Massachusetts of Rhode Island to legalize. Will be nice on a summer Friday night after a tough week  to go on the deck after the kid are in bed with a spiff and a glass on wine and stare at the stars with some good music playing in the background.....

      It is not all tax. It is a little complicated but the lotto winnings are actually an annuity so you would get the full $1.3 billion but spread out over 30 years. If you decide on a lump sum cash payout then you get just over half which would be about $650 Million pretax dollars. After taking the lump sum payout and taxes you end up with about 1/3 of the original jackpot so somewhere between $400-450 Million. Still crazy money if you win!

  22. Nobody won last nights Powerball Lottery so Saturday's jackpot will be a U.S. record for lottery prizes. It is estimated it will be over $700 Million U.S. to the winner(s)

    1. classicrawker

      classicrawker

      Well not really because it actually is an annuity so if you take the cash value in a lump sum payment the actual value is just over $400 million before taxes and somewhere north of $200 Million after taxes depending on where you live but still an insane amount of money
