    For those who don't know any Swedish.. Press the "LYSSNA NU" button in the middle... =)

    Edit: Right before the podcast started, a Swedish guy said that Slash gonna talk about being friends with axl again etc.. just a clickbait.. So i am sorry for the misleading Topic! But always fun to hear some stories.

    Are Axl's "no shows" exagerrated?

    I don't know if this reunion thing is going to happen or not, but even for that I will have to travel to another city, over the years a person has other responsibilities too, so I will have to save money for months and then if there is a no show, then it will be very disappointing.

    I too have to travel a long way.. live high up north in Sweden.. they only have big concerts in Stockholm (capitol of Swe) or Gothenburg. and that's about 1.000-1400 km from home. But if a reunion happen i would travel across the world just to see them perform together :D better hope for a succesfull show on time then =)

    well i don't care if you were a Slash fan or Axl fan.. hate that "pick side thing" some people argue about.. Well it seems like we got a different way of treating people then :)

    I would certainly be dissapointed if no show occured.. But i don't like this bashing thing.. I don't have the need to call someone a fuck head to tell the artist that i am dissapointed.

    haha hope you guys can bare with my bad grammar... :)

    Many people work hard, they have kids to feed, complaining wives etc etc. Those people save money to buy a ticket for their favorite artist which is Axl Rose in this case. Money doesn't grows on trees.

    Many people travel from another city by bus/plane/car.

    If Axl shows 3 hours late and the last train leaves at 12.30 am, then the person has to wait for 5 to 6 hours to catch the first train in the morning. IT IS NOT FAIR.

    A Fan as every right to Bash Axl in this case.

    I get your point.. But he doesen't deserve to be called all those horrible things because of that.. I don't think as a "fan" you have the rights to call another person "fuckhead" "or worthless pice of shit" etc because of a late show..

    First show isaw i traveled over 1.000 Km. Sat on my ass outside the venue for almost 30 hours to get in front. Had the greatest time of my life.. Yes Axl started the show maybe 40-60 minutes late but who cares. That's just my opinion. My point is people are waaay to mean.

    I mean everywhere i read there's those people bashing Axl for doesn't show up or cancel the show in last minute. Of course i know alot of shows did not start on time BUT "people" on different comment sections on various forums/facebook complain about this so much that it sounds like he is late EVERY show or cancel every now and then. But then again people seem tho get stuck in the 90's and don't realise people change over time..

    And people seem to forget all the good things he brought to the music industry.. Hate all the negativity and cruel bashing that's all. :thumbsdown:

    For me personally.. i really don't care wether Axl are on time or 10,20,40 minutes late when i get to see one of the greatest singers/rockers of all time. :headbang:

    According to that article, if you go to Sweden, you gonna get raped.

    well.. I understand why most girls are afraid of going out for a walk late in the evening or home from bars.. especially in the big cities nowadays..

    Because "Hagamannen" was released this summer, right?

    yeah in the city of Umeå maybe.. but that "Hagamannen" cunt almost got beaten to death after he got released from prison :thumbsup:

    It would seem that Sweden's open door immigration policy needs a drastic revision considering the enormous amount of strain its putting on its welfare system. Nations need to find a balance between helping those who find themselves fleeing from their war-torn homes and the domestic needs of their citizens. It would seem as though Sweden is being generous to a fault and in drastic need of some form of shared responsibility with the rest of Europe and other industrialized nations.

    On the flip side, parts of Germany has found the wave Syrian refugees as an asset. Doug Saunders of the Globe and Mail outlines in his article published back in March of this year that many Syrian refugees are middle class professionals who are solving work shortage issues. As noted, this was written back in March and things might have changed dramatically.

    What's needed is a EU response and shared responsibility. This problem should not be solved by a few generous states. Other nations outside of the EU should step up as well.

    Well said! +1

    What's your opinion on this?

    Well in short my opinion is that it´s gone to far.. the hole idea of just let anyone pass over the Swedish borders.. Sweden can not afford it financially or get jobs or somewhere to live for all those refugees. there is already a shortage of housing. Swedish government don´t seem to care about this. What have been a top welfare country is now falling down.. fast. Of course I feel sorry for the refugees it is terrible what happens to them, but we can not destroy our country in the process of taking on too many refugees. The Sweden that I grew up in was a country where you never have to be afraid to go out at night, or let your kids play outside. People did not even lock the car door at night. The government cut back on the budget of schools, health care and other essential to finance all this. In the end we all loose.. both refugees and Swedish people.

    Sorry if my english grammar is not 100% :)
