  1. Refute one part of what I wrote. Should be easy if it’s absolute bullshit.
  2. Or just don’t play them at all. The vast majority of people paying to attend these concerts don’t care about them. The one VR song they play had a much bigger impact than any of the songs on CD. That’s simply a fact. Not to mention the only one Axl can reliably pull off is the title song, which isn’t even one of the better songs on the album.
  3. Absurd as a first “single” in however many years is absurd. Hard Skool may be catchy, but it’s also lyrically cringey. There’s a good song in there but it’s not what ended up being the finished product. Perhaps at least sounds like an older adult version of what you could’ve imagined a GNR ballad type song sounding like. Because of that I think it’ll fare better than the other 2. Still disappointing though the only song they’re definitely going to release in the near future is more reheated food from 20 years ago.
  4. Lay off the glue bud. Slash has been the most consistent star of the reunion shows for 7 years now. Most all reviews from objective sources repeatedly have stated this. Not trying to shit on Axl, but he can go from pretty damn good to embarrassing in the span of a few songs during a single show. These concerts/tours work because of Slash imo
  5. Leaked version isn’t great but could be improved with some slight changes. Hopefully they did that. It’s definitely a better song than Absurd and the lyrically cheesy (not to mention the stupid ass ringing bell and high school locker vibe) Hard Skool.
  6. That could be true, I’m just saying that from the photos I just see a normal recessed hairline. Can’t see if there are any bald spots in the back.
  7. Hopefully the shorts are just swim trunks he’s wearing out and about for some reason. Prettty odd choice otherwise. Looks like he’s been lifting or doing push ups though.
  8. Hair looks fine to me. Especially for a 57 year old who was likely wearing some kind of hat not long before these pics were taken. His boots look cool. He should wear them on stage.
  9. Or 15 years with only 2 mediocre songs to show for it. 🤦🏻‍♂️ We’ve now reached the point where the time since CD was released has basically equalled the time between TSI and CD. Pathetic really. Happy the reunion happened but the opportunity/potential pissed away the last 30 years is ridiculous.
  10. Seems dumb for an indoor stadium to have a curfew that early.
  11. 1) He’s worth approximately $90-100 million dollars based on reports 2) If his income dropped considerably he could go to court to get the alimony amount lowered 3) As an example, if you had around $50 million to invest, you could make $1.5 million in interest alone yearly if you got just a 3% return. He won’t be running out of money anytime soon because he has to pay her around $1 million a year
  12. Yeah, wasn’t Prostitute originally thought to be titled Message For You or am I remembering that wrong?
  13. No, that wasn’t the prediction. It was known that it was gonna be a financial flop months before it came out.
  14. How so? Movie is gonna be a big satirical hit this summer and the song is funny. The soundtrack’s producer, Mark Ronson, is one one of the most accomplished in the music industry and called Slash basically his fucking hero. Pretty cool imo. Well, yeah. Slash is on it. Why is Slash on it? Turns out Slash is Ronson's "all-time hero" and though he didn't know him very well, "it never hurts to ask," the Oscar-winner noted. "I sent him the song and he was like, 'This is a good song... cool, I'll play on it,'" Ronson recalled. "He kills it, he plays the solo at the end and the rhythm parts. It's wonderful."
  15. I love the handstand from Slash as the end. Not bad at all everything considered. That was actually fun to watch. Haven’t been able to say that for a proshot in…a long time.
