Dude, are you serious? You do know what an album is, don’t you?

I just don't see the need to call her crazy for doing what she loves to do, to each his or her own. I think enough has been said on this, this thread really needs to get back on topic. I agree the prices are rather exorbitant, but no need to turn that into a discussion of fans and their habits at shows and their mental state. 

In general I totally agree with you. But I really do wonder why people get that mad because of someone or something being called „crazy“. I think you are stretching the word „crazy“ and/or the phrase „he/she is crazy“ a little bit to far. To call someone  „crazy“ is not necessarily negative at all, in no way an insult. By the way, Have you ever noticed the common language on this board?! Being called crazy is one of the nicer things 😄

Anyway, I think for most of us „crazy“ just means not behaving normal, or at least behaving in a way most people don’t. And most people on this board have not been traveling around the world for three years and not been going to (nearly) every single GNR show if this tour.

They were called mad and essentially told that they have no life. In fact if someone can afford to see every show they'd be pretty well off and financially secure to do that.

Just saw it. My post was already out of date whilst writing it.

I was almost banned from here for using the term GNR-Educator (TM) but fans can criticize other fans for going to multiple shows? Again ,who cares?  Their money,their life. Doesn't impact any of us in the slightest. 

No it doesn't.

I haven‘t seen anyone critizing anybody above. 

Personally I just wasn’t aware that there are fans who have seen every single show of this three year lasting tour. Its just unbelievable. I just wanted to know what kind of people they are (sex, age, origin).  Nothing more and nothing less.

I'll guess. It's either Margott from Southern California or Tako from Japan....

Crazy.

Well. There is only one who's gone to every show and she is clearly mad.

Are you serious? 😄 Any more information? I am just curious.

Glad you didn't take it too seriously.

You know how irony does (not) work in writing?! Whatever.

Do you know another Cobain?

Dude, I am not from the US. Maybe there is a senator or any other local politican named Cobain which is not known worldwide who did Duff recently call a republican. (Yes, I just saw your are not from the US either). 

I wasn’t expecting you to explain a statement made by Duff in 2019 by any quote Kurt Cobain did 25-30 years agao

Apples and oranges.

GN'R wouldn't be in control of the pricing for this thing, like they are for their music. JJP would pay a licensing fee to use the band's likeness and music. It's possible the band could negotiate some kind of fee per unit sold. But beyond that, the MSRP for this thing will be completely up to JJP.

Knowing SLASH, he'll want the thing to be cool so he probably won't do it if AXL broke their balls over the licensing fee.

I'm betting the MSRP is somewhere in line with what @Blackjacker listed and/or what the more recent Metallica, Aerosmith and AC/DC machine went for. Possibly a tad more since GN'R is likely to draw more interest than Willy Wonka.

I wasn‘t serious. But thanks for your reply anyway. I totally agree.

That cunt called GNR Republicans. Well, he called them many names.

Kurt Cobain?

 Or he wants to make sure no one else calls him Republican, like Cobain did. 

What are you reffering to?

By the way, Eagles of Death Metal just released a cover version of It‘s So Easy on their new album. 

The band is not my cup of tea but with respect to Duff’s ridiculous quote about the lyrics I think it’s woth mentioning.

JJP's MSRP for the Standard, Limited and Collectors editions of their latest machine (Willy Wonka):

$7,500, $9,500 and $12,500

Available from distributors for less, but yeah... it's gonna be brutal.

Don’t forget your not dealing with Willy Wonka but Guns n Roses. They charge 1k for a box with some records and plastic shit. You better expect some massive increase 😂

Just ordered my ticket for Cologne 😃

Indeed. But some punky ... sorry ... funky Prince stuff as well ;-)

Both.

but apart from that, what connection does Ashba have to the gay community ? how did my avatar and my comment become connected ? 

think about it. 

question (NO answer necessary): how did two members of band performing one of their songs togethther become connected to the gay community, especially more connected than the peacock shown in your avatar?!

that skinny chic with blue hair adds nothing keyboard wise to the band, i don't even think its switched on but her singing voice sounds ok. 

her and Axl doing a duet would be good and wouldn't be as gay as Ax and Duff singing a romantic song together. 

 

... the guy with an Ashba avatar tells us that a song with Axl and Duff sharing vocals would be gay.

Congratulations. Your post is the most stupid one I have been reading here in a long time. And this means a lot.

I don't think thats how everyone approaches it.  The band that the world at large came to know as GnR is Axl, Slash, Iz', Steven and Duff.  THATS the band, so thats Tracii and Ole Solskjaer and all those other wankers that no one except nerds have heard of off up the pictures for a start.  After that they made line up adjustments when individuals fucked off to keep from breaking up, thats fair enough.  But then when the whole thing falls apart and there's no one left (when there's one person left out of an entire band thats the same as no ones left because a band is a band of people, a group of people, if all but one has fucked off there is by definition no band left, one person can band together with himself) thats when a bands done.  The definitive works of GnR by anyones fuckin' reckoning, even a retards, is Appetite, Lies and Illusions, they aren't this world famous fuckin' band based on Chi Dem, thats just mental illness again.  Ergo, the cunts who made those albums are the best call for who the band is because the adjustments made to those line ups were made when one of a large collective left to keep the unit working, thats sort of functional necessity, I can hang with that.  This is all for the perspective of a listener of music however, legally speaking the band is whoever the cunt that owns the rights to the name says is the band, which is fair enough, in a court of law.  But I ain't a solicitor, I'm just a dickhead who buys CDs (or used to, buys albums, you know what I mean) and goes to gigs, I don't give a fuck for legal entities and likeness rights, appreciation of music is an entertainment thing, legal entities and likeness rights only matter to the cunts whoose bank account benefits from all that bollocks, they're nothing to do with fans or the public at large, who operate more on the basis of apparent realities as opposed to backroom manuevrings. 

Now the Illusions line up ain't my favourite, they ain't the one I really really really like...but I accept them as Guns n Roses because there being there is to do with the functional necessity of a particular time, to keep that band together and going.  Once that band split and were done they had split and were done.  I actually quite like NuGuns, I thought the original collective at least, the ones who started going out and playing, Axl, Bucket, Brain, Fortus Finck and Tommy were a pretty crazy little collective.  And I'll call em Guns n Roses or NuGuns for ease of reference if the owner of the rights wants me to...but they are no more Guns n Roses than Wings were The fuckin' Beatles because they had Paul McCartney in em. 

Great post. Thanks!

That's my thing; if you're "punk" you certainly don't have to tell anyone about it. 

I totally agree.
