    Beside the fact that it's disrespectful to call Beta Axl's maid, Fernando happens to be the manager of the band, like it or not. When he was teasing us (very annoyingly!) with: 'If only you knew what I know...', he was talking about the (partial) reunion, he also told a fan there would be more touring before the European tour was announced. If he is talking about GNR and not his personal life, I'm sure something exciting is being planned.

    I'm not letting myself get carried away, but I'd put more stock in Fernando saying 2018 will be big than in Fortus or anyone other than the big 3 saying whatever.

    I wanted to address this because I think my original post was actually stupid. I am brave enough to admit when I make a dumb post. I’m not perfect and over me posting 1,000+ times here there not going to always be good.

    To rephrase my original post:

    I do hope we get Guns information and releases but my hope for this band has been waning for years. I feel like Fernando is just hyping us up with “PR speak” and that there won’t be anything too drastically different next year besides more tour dates being added.

    What is it?  I mean in laymans terms, everytime i google it it brings up some long fuckin' thing.

    Basically, service providers can choose which websites have faster speeds. For example, Comcast could block Netflix speeds on purpose and Verizon could slow down your access to the AT&T website and pay incredulous amounts of money for fast speeds on their own websites.

    Imagine if every trucking company had to pay to build their own freeways.

    Voting has consequences.  Remember this the next time someone says there's no difference in voting Republican versus Democrat.

    I hope a change such as loss of neutral internet encourages people to actually vote. From what I've read the majority of people voting are older and the age group 18-25 have the most unregistered people who don't bother voting.

    The good news is a change such as the loss of internet will convince that age group to vote in the next election.

    I can explain... We have "fans" on a forum that post day in and day out for 2 decades bashing and complaining about a band who they loved at one time but can't seem to move on from the past. 

    I hate Cheerios but I'm gonna force myself to eat them every morning then I'm gonna complain about it. 

    You know who you are, so don't be butt hurt and comment on my post. 

    I am going to be “butt hurt” and comment here because I can tell this is in part directed at me.

    Your not going to be very popular here the way your talking down to us. I was purely having a civil conversation here and every member knows that I am very cordial and polite in my friendly conversations. 

    None of us have issues with differing opinions but rather the ways that the individual presents them. No disrespect but there’s no need to be upset with the members here since we just were trying to have a friendly conversation.

    Wow, where are you?  Must be a great place for your radio station to be playing Anastasia quite often. :lol:  I can tell you the radio where I am, does not, nowhere near it.  Rock?  What's that?  

    Anastasia isn't bad at all, but I'm afraid I can't get past my own prejudice - to me it sounds like a poor man's Journey.  And if I want to hear that kind of music, I'll just listen to Journey. :shrugs:  I really like the verse/chorus but not in love with Slash's soloing on that.  And it is absolutely categorically not even approaching SCOM status, sorry! lol

    Here in California I hear Slash’s stuff on the radio quite often, but maybe the state location I’m in is biased.

    And I'm sure 90% of rock/hard rock music fans don't even know that song. 

    It's a cool riff. Again, it's not even close to being as iconic or recognized as any GnR hit. 

    Keep in mind rock music of that genre is maybe a tenth as popular as it was back in the late 80’s. No rock song will ever have the same appeal as a GN’R song released in their prime anyways. For the smaller genre that contains rock music these days, Slash’s songs Anastasia and Ghost were very well received and are played all the damn time on radios. 

    I don’t even like Slash’s solo stuff all that much but I’m open to acknowledging pure facts about it.

    Name the Slash tunes or Conspirator tunes that have become iconic. Whatever you say will be rationalizing and the fact is his solo stuff is not on the same level period. 

    Anastasia is a great song that many have compared as a modern Sweet Child of Mine. Slash’s best post GNR riff in my opinion and one that I hear on the radio quite often actually.
