    Yeah it’s hard to see the current version of the band as a real tight “unit,” but if they really do want to do a new album that holds any real merit, they’re gonna have to find a way to make that work.

    i honestly wouldn’t mind just a simple EP of Axl and Slash playing together acoustically, or something to that effect.

    For now Guns N' Roses are Axl, Slash and Duff. The rest are hired hands. I'm fine about that.

  2. We're a little too harsh on Duff. God, the man is a father of two growing daughters. Maybe he has in mind Oscar Wilde's words: "Children begin by loving their parents. As they grow older they judge them. Sometimes they forgive them." Or he wants to make sure no one else calls him Republican, like Cobain did. Or he's become dickless.

    On the other hand, there's nothing wrong about being young and horny. And there's nothing wrong about rough sex, when it's consensual. Sometimes you say "come here, you bitch", sometimes she yells at you "you useless piece of meat", and that's fucking hot!

    Anyway, we have the right to call Duff spineless (again), and he has his reasons to act like he does. Pretty shitty situation. Oh wait, it's Guns N' Roses.

    Who would’ve even been around the band at that time (1994-1996)?

    Marc Canter said at least three of the Snakepit songs were supposed to be GNR songs originally. And we have evidence that This I Love and Fall To Pieces come from that time period too. Then there’s the tape of a handful of songs that Duff and Izzy did in 1995 (Down By the Ocean is the only one from there that we know by name).

    Gilby said all of the songs from his first solo record were originally songs he offered to GNR (they rejected all of them) except Cure Me Or Kill Me, cause he hadn’t written that one yet.

    Also, there’s some speculation that Scent Of A Woman (assuming it’s even real) comes from the Zakk Wylde sessions. And Axl said once that Oh My God was apparently in its early stages when Duff and Matt were still around (but not Slash). 

    I wonder if other ChiDem songs that Paul or Dizzy wrote (The Blues, TWAT, Catcher, and IRS) were already around at that point too or not.

    You want to tell me Axl rejected 'Beggars' and 'Tijuana Jail'? What a fucking moronic redhead.

    They actually did, there's an alternate ending knocking about on youtube to First Blood where that shit happens:

     

    If it was better executed, it could have been a brilliant ending. But still better than the original one, without that stupid, cheesy song.

    Yeah, I get that... like I said; good idea, but strangely executed imo. Not sure why... something about it just felt “off.” I haven’t seen it in ages so I’d have to go back and rewatch it to see if I can put my finger on it.

    there’s also an “assembly cut” available publicly that people say is far superior, right? Maybe if I watch that version I’ll feel better about it.

    i agree that the ending is great though! Ridley sacrificing herself was cool... too bad Alien Resurrection totally undermined that too...

    The more is not always the better. If you hate something, you'll keep hating it. ;)

    Yeah, I don't acknowledge Alien Resurrection. Great cast again, but a pointless movie.
