AxlRoseCDII

So can we end all this speculation on a new Guns album now guys? We have a band member saying they haven’t discussed it as long with heavy rumblings of SMKC III. Drop it and enjoy their solo bands.

Anyone wanna summarize?

I’ll be the first one to eat crow pie over the whole Ashba thing and I primarily blame myself for spreading the whole “he’s going to work with Axl” rumblings we saw on the forum. 

That being said I think there’s no real point to hate on him anymore. As for his time with the band I look back on it differently now and think that while he sucked, he did try to be good in the band and anyone of us wouldn’t blink twice to play in a band called “Guns n’ Roses”

Hes a footnote in Guns history. Keeping complaining about him is as useful as ranting about how bad the weather in September 2015 was. It happened, move on.

I’ll probably give Dizzy’s album a listen or two, but like he says in the interview 90% of music is crap and the other 10% is good, and I’m willing to bet which category his will be part of..

He’s been living in Axl’s vault eating scraps of CDII records to survive, which in turn is why that hasn’t been released yet.

Thats not what Todd said in the latest Appetite for Distortion episode

In contrast to the photos we’ve seen of them at the studio and admist the other confirmations we have? Todd is probably on a hush order. 

Band members of SMKC have literally confirmed there is work right now for a new album. Slash has been in the studio with the conspirators. How is there not a new SMKC coming out soon?

The main reason why we will never see or hear anything new out of the UYI era is because Axl refuses to legitimize anything that isn't the most current lineup.

Whats up with the itchiness?  Is that part of taking melatonin?

Yeah, it totally sucks!  My young cat thinks that whenever I get up its morning, meaning time to be fed.  So Im tired and grumpy that I cant sleep and I got the beast attacking me for not feeding it.

Idk. I just have a league of issues when it comes to sleep unfortunately :/

Im starting to think the same.  Or that my body has already given up at sleeping.  Fully awake at 1:50am.  This time nothing even woke me up.

I’m so pissy about this, melatonin worked for me for about 4 hours and now I’m up again and just really itchy and can’t sleep again! It suckssssss!

Guess even melatonin doesn’t work for me! It’s hopeless, maybe I should just give up on sleeping like a normal person....

Shitty week when it comes to sleep. I’ve been waking up only one hour after I fall asleep followed by a few hours to get back in sleep. Sleep pills won’t help :/ fuck

I bet if we ever do get new music the lyrics are just going to be spammed emojis.

No Silkworms?

I reckon that the release date of his book will coincidentally pop up around when the next leg of the Guns tour is happening and they have buzz again.

Shit, we may as well just call anyone a workaholic at this point. I guess Paul Tobias is also one?

56, oh man! Where did the time go? 

Happy birthday Axl, keep kicking ass!

Currently on my 12th run through the Bojack Horseman series!

No, that number isn’t exaggerated!

My biggest issue with this game is the name of it. As someone who holds the first two Battlefront games dearly to my heart, I simply cannot fathom that this game and the predecessor straight up robbed the originals of their names! When you do that you signify that the new versions are the definitive, amazing must play versions, which these two are not in my opinion. I wish they just called these games Battlefront 3 and Battlefront 4.

He is not just some "guy on the internet", check your facts. 

And how many times have we heard things in the music industry said by “insiders” that never come true? Hell, Richard Fortus has said once a year for the past decade that new music will be released soon and he’s in a band.

I have issues giving some random guy on the internet credibility for the future when we know nothing about him. People lie all the time.

I'm actually sitting next door to Graceland as I type this so it's kind of funny but here's what I've always said about Elvis, Axl and any of my other favorite singers:

I couldn't give two shits what they look like. I use Elvis as an example because there's many people who've never even given his later material a listen and they always cite that era as "old fat Elvis" 

Well I'm here to tell ya... Dude was out of shape, but he wasn't old. Far more important than both of those things is this: he had his voice til the end. That was far more important to me than what the dude looked like. 

Same thing with Axl. Dude is human and in his 50s, he's gonna start to look rough! We can, have and will continue to debate "the voice" aspect, but my overall point is that I just can't bring myself to give two shits about what he looks like. 

He looks great for his age in some pics and way worse than his age in others. If I were to offer ANY critique about him in pics, I'd just say that I would like him to not look like standing next to a fan repulses him lol

See I mostly agree, but this band gives us nothing to talk about on these downtimes lol
