Paul Tobias/Huge obviously has some song-writing chops and has/had Axl's trust and respect (as far as we can tell)- so I tip my cap to him for that. I also feel that he was unfarily made the "Fall Guy" for the demise of Old Guns. I think by just about everyone's own admission at this point- the band had already been steadily breaking to pieces since Izzy left in '91 and basically just toured the bejesus out of Illusions for 2+ years and made videos and TSI? and "Sympathy For The Devil", etc. just to delay facing the painful fact that Old Guns was effectively dead. I am sure Paul's got his shortcomings (there do seem to be multiple reports that he's got a bit of a cocky attitude)- but honestly- seems to me he could have been freaking Gandhi and it wouldn't have mattered a damn. The ship was already going down...

You make some good points but I don't think he was made the fall guy as Axl pushing him on Slash was just one more crack in the crumbling relationship which you also point out..Slash was not the only one who had an issue with him as Matt and Duff did also so people, not you, implying it was Slash's issue are being shortsighted...Sounds like Huge has a bit of an attitude and likes to flaunt his friendship with Axl so you can't blame the other musicians for having a problem relating to him.......I am a firm believer that if most people think someone is an asshole the person most likley is an asshole...............

Slash, Duff and Matt had a problem with Huge? Didn't they also have a problem with Dizzy? What about Axl? And let's not forget Tracy and Roberta.

I think I'm starting to see a pattern.

Tommy didn't like him at first either.

I don't doubt the guy is a bit of a dick. Seems like he was "axl's boy" and basically thought he had some kind of immunity so he could act superior in the studio.

You prefer the album version of Catcher over the leak with Brian May? Album version of Prostitute over the leak? Album version of Maddy over the (first) leak?

Prostitute '99 leaked? Have I missed something? If you're talking about the 'New Song #2' leak, it's basically the same that's on the album, or at least that's my opinion.

No Prostitute from 1999 never leaked (I wish). I'm talking about this one.

I know it is pretty similiar to the album. I can't pin exactly why I prefer this version to the album version (which I can't say for the rest of the leaks I'm talking about). I just do.

leaks and live versions of the songs that were 10x better than the album

Opinions are like assholes they say.

I prefer the album over any leaks.

How will you celebrate?

I'll personally be listening to demos, leaks and live versions of the songs that were 10x better than the album

I think they cancelled because tomorow is the 3 year annieversary of chinese democracy and axl probably wants to take the entire day off to facepalm at how much he fucked that album in rememberance.

lol

Looking forward to a great show and to keep the momentum of the tour going. Question: What is the best way to get to the venue from City Hall? I am staying at a hotel downtown and was thinking about taking a cab or riding the PATCO. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

where you at? philly?

swim.

Might be a bit cold for a swim. Any other options?

i think they have a ferry but, i don't remember. i've only been to the venue once and i live in nj. i'm probably not the best person to ask.

that's philly in the background

Was this supposed to be the NYC show or was that more the NJ shows? Why don't they play NYC?

the east rutherford show was the nyc show.

people who haven't gone to the show shut the fuck up...those who have...you're kidding right? there's no reason why you could've not liked the show...they've all been amazing...this is a fucking useless thread

who said i didn't like it? all i'm saying is that his voice was better last year.

some serious **I am a stupid cupcake;Just Ignore my post**s on this forum.

lol, serious? who's the cunt that installed that word filter? lol.

Have you attended a show this tour?

People says his voice is amazing...

I have.

His voice was way better last year. Anyone who thinks otherwise is kidding themself.

In 2010, people were saying his voice was better in '06.

They were wrong.

2010 > 2006/07 > 2011 > 2001 > 2002

everything about 2010 was cooler. the stage setup, everything.

hoenstly though, i do think it's highly possible that huge is a dick. i don't like to judge people unless i've met them but, tons of band members comented on how huge was acting like "axl's boy" that could get away with anything or just a dick in general.

slash, matt, tommy

Tommy?

"Another source says there's tension between [Tommy and Paul Huge] because Huge 'has the whole Guns attitude but he's never toured.'" (Spin, 07/99)

"There were guys who'd never ever made a record putting out their ideas. At first, those of us who'd actually made records thought their ideas sucked, but there were also some good ones." (Tommy, Bass Player, 04/09)

i think they're fed speed as babys

tobias > izzy

i want to fukk op

so imo he hs credits on 4 of the best gnr songs ever. prostitute, omg, catcher and twat. paul is alright by my book.

definately somewhere in south america.

those freaks go batshit over everything. calm down.

Now? lolno.

Last year? Yes please.

If people realised the pain Ron was in while still going out there and giving 100% they'd say Ron.

Follow at cobra2168 for pics

are you sure that's your twitter name?

frank is frank. i'll take josh freese or brain over him any day. he's good but, he's nothing to write home about.

Frank's got commitment, and that's what the band really needs from everyone. Buckethead, Robin, Brain, they all had incredible talent and skill but the commitment was not there. Robin had NIN, Buckethead's in his own world, Brain had the Izzy mindset where he doesn't really like big touring. Sure, I'd love to hear Les Claypool on bass for GnR because he's an amazing talent, but Tommy has stuck with the band through all the shit they've been through, and considering the way Axl chooses to run his band and how the management and executives try and handle them, that deserves some goddamn respect.

yeah, he's cool. i'm just sayin' freese and brain are 10x better.
