Crash Diet

NME is too hipster for saying anything good about GNR anyways. I usually dont care about articles, but that wasnt even an article, but just a random bullshit rant.

Yeah, hipsters are the plague of nowdays music scenes

Nobody knows...

one could say they rescued Izzy and Axl from mediocrity/obscurity.

I always forget how goofy Slash looked with the Warlock/without the tophat

To be honest: they all look goofy/funny (now)

Great pic!

I don't expect this thread from you

Props for this

People may laugh at this- but since Axl owns the "Guns N' Roses" name- why not continuously hire new band members (including a vocalist!) as others age/move-on etc. and keep it rolling on forever with Axl acting as the "creative director" of sorts behind-the-scenes. He could tour it as "The Guns N' Roses Experience" or whatever. Wanna see what it was like with the AFD line-up in their prime? Hire 5 guys who look and have the chops to play the part- put them through rigorous "GN'R training"/indoctrination (led by Axl) and roll it out as a theater show (at least). I bet it would do good business if scaled properly- just as a similar type "Rolling Stones Experience" or "Led Zeppelin Experience" type show (if at the close direction of Mick/Keith and Page/Plant and done well) would do great business IMHO. I know I'd drop some coin to in essence "time travel" back to a 1960's/1970's London "show" of those bands in their prime (fully understanding that it could never be as great as actually being there- but grateful for the fact that it was a heck of a lot better than having absolutely no clue what it may have been like).

Frankly, this is precisely what went through my head during the Eddie Trunk/Howard Stern interview where they discussed the crucial importance of "controlling the name". It's gotta be Axl's most valuable asset and if he can still make a good return on it in his 60's and beyond (God-willing)- why the hell not? If you think about it- he's already been re-creating the "GN'R Experience/vibe" for 15+ years... and has done a hell of a good job IMHO...

The one obstacle (and it's likely a major one I admit) would be to get Slash, Duff, etc. to sign off on their "likeness" (impersonation) being used in the show. Axl would probably need to deal them in on the return or find some other way around the issue...

What a great idea man!

If anybody got the 1986 snippets, please post here

How the fuck this thief sneak in???

A little bit generic, but not bad. The singer is talented and the guitars sounds good to me.

Wish the band to the best

I hope only you....

I never wanted to the hack talentless Cruise sings with Axl

There is only one WAR - W.Axl Rose.

There is only one GN'R - Axl's band - past, present or future.

All else is fake.

lolno

The world consider this band "fakegnr"

GNR: it's the classical lineup: Axl, Slash ,Izzy, Duff and Steven

I'm curious what would you do or come to this forum if Axl hasn't got the brandname

you definitely should read Marc Canter's book...

For lolcano:

The same old Tracci Guns is GNR argument which is laughable.

That lineup will never ever break through from the strip...

VR, nugnr or just a nice HOF band. But non of them I consider GNR, but I enjoy all of them.

THIS

It's too sad to imagine, and too early to start caring about it... I think.

this

Is it critical for Axl to have big hit songs on the next GNR record? I often wonder if that is the reason why CD II hasn't come out yet. Releasing another album without hit songs is sort of like advertising that you aren't really GNR, and it would likely serve to do nothing more than further depress concert ticket sales in the US.

Where would you know Axl hasn't got any hit song on his vault?

What is the problem?

This post

I have to say this survey is a great way to identify those members that are either not fans of the current band at all, or those that are just too depressing and negative, to sort of round them up for a mass banning . I mean, what possible benefit could such members have to a fan forum?

This shows me to what a big a.....e are you...

As SOB said:

The good thing is you don't decide or get to force feed your opinions on others. Their opinion counts just as much as yours playa.

Drop out Ashba :xmassrudolph:

Please let me explain this to you miser, lolcano and the others:

This isn't a song at all.

Just a joke at a shroomtrip

Not fill in for the album.

Not fill in Guns n' Roses

Plain and simple

Pure crap

agree with the OP

Never liked this cover song.

Not in the old days.

love the first 6 sabbath albums with ozzy, my fave being sabotage and master of reality, they are just amazing records. his first 2 solo albums were decent many killer songs with a good amount of filler IMO, he has been on a pretty cold streak since diary although i love ozmosis which is my fave ozzy solo album, which for some reason gets slammed by critics

Exactly this. But i also loved NSD.

Ozzy and Black Sabbath for life rock1

He probably doesn't give a shit

2012: 4

2010: 7-8

2006: 7

Current bumblefoot looks stupid with those bloody eyes... he needs to loose 'em,... looked waaaaayyy cooler in 2006 and in RiR.

this

Pros:

- It's Guns n' Roses

i lolled a minute (not sarcastic or trying to bitch about the name or something, just the simple raw 'pro' argument )

I have no idea

Is there anything Tom Cruise can't do?

yup. good acting
