  1. Men over the age of 25 should not be wearing converse, vans, hi-tops or other kid type shoes. Grown ups wear grown up clothes. Wearing T-shirts with logos or graphics on them is for teenagers. Skinny jeans are effeminate and make one look like a homosexual. Baggy jeans are low class and ugly. Whatever happened to grown men who wear adult clothes?

    The appropriate shoes for men aged 25 years and older would be monks, oxfords, derbies, and loafers. Grown men also wear button up shirts and polos. NOT short sleeve t-shirts with logos, wife beaters, sports jerseys and other low brow immature styles.

    Anyone else agree?

    As for household items with band logos ...best suited for the trailer park or council estate.

    A fool and his money...

  2. There was a certain comfort in knowing that Bowie was still out there somewhere making music, even if he had stopped touring and appearing in the public eye.

    The mad, mad, bastard I absolutely loved him and they way he exited the stage was so beautifully typical of what he all about.

    In a way it reminded me of Hunter S. Thompson - planned it all out to the very end. You look at what they did and it is unmistakable.

    The world is a duller place today. Some of the sheen has vanished. And we are all the poorer for it.

  3. I reckon he must have had a bit of a giggle thinking about how all of this was going to pan out, I mean the planning was meticulous with the album release, his birthday, the now so obvious hints in the lyrics and videos and then the ultimate stage exit. Genius. Incredibly sad but with a wink and wry smile that so typified Bowie.

  4. What a cock.

    Thats what she said.

    In 2004

    Aren't there 2 legal entities named Guns N' Roses? I thought one was the nu-Guns band which Axl holds the rights to, and the other was the partnership of Axl, Slash and Duff, who have to collectively sign off on all old-Guns merch, etc.?

    That is correct. Regarding the notion of equal partners, when was it ever equal? Axl has always tried to control the band even when it was the original 5. I mean he slathered that synth crap on the Paradise City guitars without asking the other guys and we are stuck with it almost 30 years later (the only misstep on that album IMHO). You had the horn section during the UYI Tour, which the other partners didn't want. He is the frontman and that means he will throw his weight around even if the partnership is active.

    Slash suggested the horns contrary to popular belief that it was Axl

  5. We´ve been talking about Sorum, Adler, Izzy... And the irrelevant, useless and worthless Chris Pitman is confirmed :facepalm:

    :no:

    Hey man, I get you prefer he wouldn't be in the band anymore. But calling him useless and worthless as a person is more than unnecessary. Chill.

    I don't think he is referring to him in context of the band.. Where he is worthless and useless. Not to mention adds a negative effect to timeless songs.

    Is that a keyboard or pedal effect? Sounds awesome

  6. I don't see any positives of this guy staying. I know a lot of people think he is a douche but I really know nothing about him so that has nothing to do with me thinking he should go.

    I think he ruins the songs musically.. Example is Rocket Queen. Watch the 02 Arena show.. The end part is ruined by him drowning out classic guitar riffs with annoying Synths.. It is sinful really..

    The more bodies onstage the less this seems like Gn'R... You are going to have 3 originals and 7 possibly 8 others? This thing could still be good with just Axl, Slash and Duff but you really need to cut off some of the fat. This isn't Slipknot...

    He also looks like a clown on the stage with his tilting keyboards... So f'n goofy looking...

    You should have just stopped right there/

  7. Who cares what a bunch of mulletheads on a dad rock site think?

    This is from facebook and they are people of all ages and genders....

    Well shit, cancel the reunion then, a few dumbasses on mytube are upset.

    Where were the people during the Illusions Tour saying "WHERE ARE STEVEN AND IZZY?! WHY IS THERE A KEYBOARD PLAYER AND BACKUP SINGERS?! THIS ISNT GUNS N ROSES!!!"

    Same concept. At least let them play a show together (Axl and Slas my will be on stage together again ya know) before the real bitching starts.

    They were alive for a start.

    The difference is that the UYI tour was not a reunion tour : )... More than 22 years after, people want the best. Sure, Fortus can play Izzy parts (same feeling? I dont know) but the people who play the music is also important, not only the music itself. I disagree on the fact that Gnr needs two keyboards and 3 guitars... I dont think i am in the minority here : )

    It aint your band.
