If he is broke (and I hope he is not) it is entirely because of his terrible business model. Fabulous musician, excellent music, but the business-side lets him down. Get a decent website, promote properly, release limited edition coloured / splat vinyls (“gory headstump orange”!!! - via Sheet Happens or equivalent), tour outside USA, play guest spots, join a band… there’s a lot he could do. Releasing endless Pikes / Live Pikes which even I, as one of his most hardcore fans who has a huge box of $1000’s of dollars worth of his physical releases over the years in my attic, stopped buying even in the $2 sales… just won’t work I don’t think. I wish him well.
Hopefully Axl reaches out and offers him a few guest spots to play TWAT live for $.
