Scott Sapp is awesome, so is BBF, so is this news

so the edited version means that , in a ffunny way, there are  a few more "instrumental" seconds of the music? kind of, something i have not heard before? huh

This wrestler is called Rick Steiner. His theme song (entrance song) of the years 1998-2000 sounds like a welcome to the jungle rip off. On top of that it starts with "welcome to the dogpound" , as he was stylized to be a bulldog of some sort.

Btw, Rick Steiner was awesome

that is the end of my message. Move on.

used to have them but my HD is kinda fucked cant access it now

surely someone must have them

the most fun part is to listen to the tape

it was made available a little before the release of the hollywood rose cd and the recordings were a bit rawer if i am not mistaken

terrific stuff, izzy and chris speed metal riffs, axls voice absolutely brilliant

dude, please, try

for the legacy

and now in the light of the reunion

i wish this happened :

Axl welcomes back Duff and Slash into the band

they regain the rights to the name

they book a huuuuuuuuuuuuge tour

Axl bails out, just like Izzy and the rest of them did in the 90s, giving away the rights to the band

Slash and the rest are left with no singer and a booked tour. They go BANKRUPT

Axl joins AC / DC and creates profit

Axl wins

the ultimate revenge

wow, just wow!

the following fragment comes from this book

gnr encyclopaedia by mick o' shea

For an interesting, and highly
informative, history of Hollywood
Rose, I recommend checking
out the band’s drummer, Johnny
Kreis’ website www.laserfire.com,
where he reveals that he was playing
in a Hollywood-based outfit
called Shire when he was first
approached by Izzy with a view
to laying down the drum tracks
for some demos he was working
on with Axl (who just happened
to be crashing in Shire’s garage
rehearsal space at the time).
Although a quarter century has
since passed, Kreis remembers
his initial encounter with Izzy
with total clarity. Not because of
Axl’s and Izzy’s subsequent success
in Guns N’ Roses, but rather
due to Izzy’s proffered method
of payment – a six-pack of Budweiser
and a medium-sized pizza.
Izzy and Axl had booked a day’s
recording at the Angry Samoans
Studio in West Hollywood, and
Kreis was happy to oblige, as
doing a spot of ‘moonlighting’
for other bands was a common
occurrence amongst L.A.’s rock
fraternity. And as this was light
years away from Axl’s fixation for
perfection, there was no need for
Kreis to learn the songs’ arrangements
as there were none. In fact
Axl’s sole pre-requisite of Kreis
was that he “play really fast, and
pound away with a blues feel.”
This, of course, was what Kreis
did best, and he obviously did
it with aplomb, for his display
prompted Axl and Izzy to prise
him away from Shire to join
Hollywood Rose. The accompanying
photos on Kreis’ website
show a wild-haired Axl sporting
the obligatory biker jacket with
bare chest underneath, while Izzy
adopts a sedate ‘Ronnie Wood’
look, of open-necked white shirt
with the sleeves rolled up above
the elbows. Indeed, the band’s

stripgarish
image – a hybrid of punk
and glam metal – bewildered
audiences at The Troubadour,
Gazzarras, and Madame Wong’s
alike. Kreis is still in possession of
the original demo tape – a sample
of which can be heard on his site
– but with 1985 fast approaching,
it was a case of ‘New Year, New
Start’ as far as Axl and Izzy were
concerned and they called time on
Hollywood Rose with one final
performance in San Pedro, California,
on 31 December, 1984.

any more info on that? the book was released in 2008 and the site is offline. anybody made backup of these pictures?

I was just reading Adler's book and he said

1. he signed the contract in which he gave away the rights to the band for the mere 2 grand

2. it was annulled bikoz his lawyer wasn't present at the moment of signing

and then I read Duff's book and he said he was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ripped off and fooled into singing his contract (while he was under influence of coke and booze) (which he signed only bikoz he was afraid of a riot - what a sympathetic folk, that guy)

if he was so ripped off, didn't his lawyer need to be present at that moment?

anybody has any info on that?

god I hate Nirvana and all it stands for

even tho they have a few good songs, the whole idea of this band and its 'followers' makes it too hard to stand it, let alone enjoy it

integrity and GNR? in the wake of the least likely reunion in the show business, you say integrity and GNR?

this thing out yet?

this was discussed before and the answer was, if memory serves, germany, summer of 1992 or 1993

and why do you assume Izzy is married?

GNR reunion talk began around 2013

Matt changed "Matt Sorum's Rock And Roll All Stars" into "Kings Of Chaos" with Duff, Gilby, Slash

because he already knew back then he wouldn't be in GNR. It was already decided back then.

so Slash did a tour with Kings of Chaos, as a sort of "sorry bro" type o thing, so Matt could ca-$ing ca-$ing some too

and it was made sure everysingle time that Slash was the "guest" on the tour, etc

besides, it was Kings Of Chaos who first twittered or facebooked the big news, about a year before the official announcement (or was it a year? or more or a little less?)

you know the post, the 1993 GNR picture , Axl wearing the everlast boxing robe, the band taking the bow after the sow

hashtag reunion, big news coming up, etc

Gilby aint' in the reunion either, so he's in Kings Of Chaos

but I'm not sure if Duff will keep doing both

it's Matt's VR#2, the CONTRABAND 2

I don't see a single reason why Adler needs a test song any more than Axl does

it was said that in 1992 Slash ODed and Axl believes that the real Slash died back then that night.

The after-1992-OD Slash is just an evil spirit

I used to like Izzy but he irritates me now and has been for a while

on one hand he is too cool to grant an interview for 10 years

on the other he shoves amateur twitter videos of some cover songs so we can praise how cool he is

if he doesn't want to be seen or heard - why twitter?

if he does - start talkin'!

and whatever ever happens, Izzy makes sure to be one step away in the shadow,

making us remember him so he can keep collecting the royalty paychecks,

yet he is always way too cool to make that one more step and make himself useful

so there's this rapper in Poland, in central Europe, and over there he's the top 10 of rappers, so to say

he did that song called "Steven Adler" and there' s a video to it too, tho you won't see Adler in it

I'll give you the gist of the lyrics

- we all tour, we all live in hotel rooms

- them hotel rooms are small - our own private jail cells

- we all drink

- having had partied with your peers for weeks on end, at one point they turn their backs on you and go

"dude, you party too much" and you don't understand the nerve of these people

- then the rapper makes an analogy, saying drums are like drugs - you need to beat them, which in Polish language means "kick the habit"

- then he says "even Adler couldn't handle these drums"

- then he says "when you drink and do drugs, your life will be hell, even if your name is Steven Adler"

and then finally some other dude shows up and sings in English:

I was everything I'm got
Rolling on high
Loud so weird on my life
I'm bleeding inside
I'm falling, save me!
Nobody gives me what I've lost

so, yea, trivial info fo ya

what is this?

the quality of the recording is really bad

the LED display say "Guns N Roses" in the band font

but the music is techno / disco and them hot biatches are dancing

any info?

Riad was first played 01 01 2001 and 9 months later the 9/11 happened

and people got whacko about Arabians, etc and listening to Riad ever again

was the last time when I thought "wow, new GNR songs are relevant"

can I get the original version of this picture, please?
