I don’t know, but my very first impression of Michael Jackson was “why is that woman dangling her baby out the window?”

rocknroll41 is the weirdest GnR fan ever. Fuck that guy.

No, he mentioned that at least as early as March 2009. You can check it out yourself here: (35) Chinese Democracy (a-4-d.com)

It’s funny to see Tommy there still refer to Chinese Democracy as “the new record” in 2014 lol.

The Appetite for Distortion guy says the website is for an autobiography.

Another new story of mine is now up: https://henrynsilva.blogspot.com/2024/04/the-sun-elixir-henry-n.html?m=1 

Daisy Ridley says she’s gonna read the script for her next Star Wars movie is about a month from now, so I guess the script is done (or close to it).

is it a musical? I dislike musicals too much to watch it, but I liked the first Joker movie.

It’s a musical, yeah

The Superman reboot is just called Superman now (unfortunately).

Also, slightly off-topic, but the Joker 2 trailer just dropped, and I have a new theory about it: what if when we first meet Harley she seems like just another patient, but then we find out at the end that it was joker who corrupted her in the first place all along? (Like in the comics)

Garden of Eden

Would be funny if this ends up coming out around the same time as the UFO cover that Axl and Slash also apparently recorded.

Saw The Orwells a few nights ago. Great show! Got to also hang out with the band before and after the gig for a bit. They were really nice. I know they’ve made mistakes in the past, but they seem to have grown a lot now.

Seeing Green Day and the Pumpkins in August, and then Weezer in September. Might also see Metallica and Pantera in august too, but that one isn’t set in stone for me just yet.

She's just filling in for a couple of shows, no?

Oh, my bad then

Sucks to hear that he has health issues. Hope things are better for him going forward.

This band is cursed when it comes to lead singers, man… Lzzy Hale is awesome tho. Glad they got her.

I'd like to see it just so that during GNR's set, before his solo, Axl could introduce Slash as 'our original guitar player' or something snarky like that.

I wouldn't bother seeing Motley for free these days... but it would be pretty cool if GNR took a page out of their book and did their own kind of 'Crue Fest' tour (similar to Slash's blues festival tour I guess). 3-4 younger opening bands, cut the set down to 2.5 hours of all-killer-no-filler, record and release one of the shows...

Slash technically isn’t the original GnR guitarist though

Looks good. I enjoyed the 2022 Batman film a lot. So more of that universe is always a welcome for me. The movie ended with penguin replacing falcone as the head of the mafia, so it’ll be interesting to see how this show follows through with that.

I wouldn't say better than Chinese but certainly not far behind it. What a record Ain't Life Grand is! Far superior to It's Five O'Clock Somewhere for me. I go back and forth whether Contraband or Ain't Life Grand is the best Slash's post GN'R album. I'd lean towards Contraband bacause I absolutely love Scott Weiland but man Rod Jackson was the shit. I wish they had done more together.

Supposedly jackson was difficult to work with, according to slash.

I’ve never read any of the source material, but I did skim through the plots of all 8 main books on Wikipedia, and also watched the previous adaptations from 1984 (including the 1988 extended cut) and 2000 (including the sequel from 2003).

That said, this new 2021/2024 two-parter version blows all of those out of the water. Some of the best cinema ever, as far as I’m concerned. A lot of changes made from the book, but they’re all for the best. If you want to see a book-accurate version though, check out the 2000 miniseries. It looks like shit and the acting is terrible, but it’s the most accurate adaptation. Avoid the Lynch version (either cut) unless you like Lynch.

If you don’t care about book-accuracy though and just want a good movie, then just stick to this new stuff. I’m personally really excited about the adaptation of the next book, Dune Messiah. Not sure how they’re gonna adapt anything after that, though (if they even do). The books get REALLY weird after Messiah. There’s also a prequel show about the origin of the Bene Gesirit sisterhood coming out later this year. Looking forward to that too!

Might go see Weezer later this year

Slash with the self-awareness of a potato just to keep his cartoon look. I would be very conflicted if i was there, Slash is ruining my view at the Oscars, but Slash is sitting in front of me at the Oscars!

I wonder if these days his hat already comes with a bit of hair to look a bit fuller and to have a stronger grip on his head using clips to tie everything together even when he is upside down or if he just wears his hat really really tight.

It definitely comes with extra hair now. He’s been balding since VR.

Slash just played with Ryan Gosling at the Oscar’s (had a feeling he would). Wolf Van Halen was there too.

Compiling those old demos of mine has inspired me to make some more new music: https://nunohenrysilva.bandcamp.com/album/the-orange-e-p 

@CosmoFYI in case you’re still interested.
