I didn't read any of your 4/5 posts on this page but I can assume they were along the lines of:

Axl is a dick

Beta is a dick

02 band was better

This whole situation is a joke

Everyone on here lacks common sense but me

Nah a few others have common sense, but most people on here cannot accept the truth.

You need to take off your Axl Rose colored glasses.

You claim im nuts blah blah blah, but the funny thing is you make the comments you make about Axl off these boards, and you will get laughed at.

Everyone knows Axl is crazy, a dickhead to most people, does not care about his fans, and his voice is pretty much gone (its not even close to what it was in the 90s let alone 80s like some of you nut jobs believe) , the only people who cannot accept that are a few hundred people on these boards.

Have you been to a show this year?

His voice is definitely at the best it has been since the 90s. The differences between 02, 06, and this year were very noticeable - and I was actually at shows, not talking out of my ass.

Also, Axl has generally been nice to almost anyone he's met fan-wise from what I've read. Never met him myself, so I can't comment beyond that. I'm betting you haven't met him, so perhaps you shouldn't be commenting either. The fact that he rants on the net doesn't make him an asshole. If that was the benchmark, the entire net would be guilty of it.

Just listen to the monitor mix and you will see this voice is shot.

Its getting better but its no where close to being as good as 92 (take the paris show for example). Anyone who claims differently is delusional.

He has no power left in his voice and its very thin sounding.

Plus he has to use backing tracks now, he never did back in the 80s or 90s.

He sounds decent yes, but his voice is 50% of what it once was. I am not saying he sounds like shit, because he doesnt. I am just saying he is not as good as he was in the 80s and 90s like people are claiming on this board.

As for him being nice to people he meets, I am not talking about that.

I am talking about the people he beats up because they have a camera, or he always seems to get in fights at airports, or picking fights with other bands lead singers, stuff like that.

He also disrespects fans for going on so late, no showing gigs and walking off mid set for stupid reasons..

Yes the going on late has been going on since the 90s but that doesnt make it right. Sure gnr fans have accepted it, but again its disrespectful to make fans wait til past 11pm to see him go on stage when the doors open at 6 or 7.

So how's this tape work when he changes vocals or sings the wrong verse?

I guess this is the new smart-tape technology we keep hearing about

Nor do I need to use the monitor mix - I've heard parts of it and its fine. If there's weak spots, that's fine too. Of the two shows I saw, his voice was awesome in one and a bit down in the mix in the other, difference between them - the second show was night two of back-to-back shows.

Sorry but the clips we've seen on YouTube of him adlibbing or fucking up kill the tape story. They might have something done for the backing stuff in Sorry since Bach is supposed to sing it, but whatever. You're nitpicking. I watched Ron do backup vocals live. He's mentioned it in interviews.

When's the last time he walked off mid set for a stupid reason? When's the last time he picked a fight with a lead singer? I guess you're talking about Vince Neil - that was what, 20 years ago?

6 or 7? See, as a person who went to an actual show (2 this year), well the ticket said 8PM. The band was onstage at 10:30 in one case, and just before 11:30 in the other. The latter being Toronto which I think has been covered to death. There were two opening acts. Given opening act run time, set changes, I don't think a 10:30 start is unreasonable.

If you do, stay home and watch the kids - it's time to stop being a rock fan.

But stop dragging up old news.

Dave, they are using backing tracks on some of the new stuff because its physically impossible for any singer to do both at the same time. I personally wish they would dop the backing tracks because its the only negative on the album in that it cludders a lot of the music. Live they should present the new songs with a more rock feel.

If Axl doesnt have a problem not playing to sold out crowds at these arenas, why the hell do you people care?

These gigs will create ..get this...a BUZZ

The only problem you can take up with Axl is if the band doesnt do a Hammerstein type show before they hit SA. Until that doesnt happen...stfu

Imagine if Bucket was still in the band? Would be great/funny to see him tearing it up in these pics at these lil shows.

Another oldGNR vs. newGNR discussion.

Yay!

what else is there to talk about with GNR now a days????

I'll answer that for you: nothing

then why are you here?

:rofl-lol: :rofl-lol:

What the fuck has 4TUS ever done to be mentioned in the same sentence as Slash?

That is a shitty pic but it's all we got for now.

he can probably play the right notes to november rain. did u not watch the grammies? slash left his talent in 1994.

Slash can play the notes to any gnr song the way he wants. There is no proper way. Im not the biggest Slash fan post GNR, but that comment is insane.

Just as bad as people getting on Finck for not playing the old stuff "properly". Why people wanted Finck/the new band to play AFD note for note Ill never understand. This is Rock n ROll.

Its very simple....

1) Unless GnR do not tour the US within the next 6-12 months, please stop with the Axl hates the US bs. What difference does it make when they hit the states? Why would they announce US dates when they havnt scheduled any yet. When the oppurtunity presents itself they will be here in the states touring. Refukinlax

2) If GnR dont do a "surprise gig" for the fans before they hit SA then you would have every right to question Axls surprise gigs coming comment. Until then refukinlax.

its not a tupac song. Its from "Love Hangover" by Diana Ross.

the original song has certain similarities to ITW. I wonder if it created an inspiration for the song

CHINESE DEMOCRACVY WILL BE WORTH THE WAIT AND THEN SOME

A BIG HUMONGUS FUCK YOU TO ALL THE DOUBTERS OUT THEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

O FUKIN BABY

NY POST is tabloid. You must not have lived there very long.

no its not a tabloid. Iv lived in nyc all my life. I get the paper everyday. NY TImes, post and daily news are nys main and CREDIBLE NEWSPAPERS.

any1 who thinks otherwise is a donkey

the story is real. There is no reason for the ny post to lie about this. And i highly doubt any club owner would name Axl out of the clear blue sky to promote the club. Get a clue people.

he was there with fortus celebrating his bday.

and im sure Axl made sure the club didnt make a copy of the album. And if there was any1 there(prob not many}, u can bet no1 there had any recording equipment

this took place at around 5am....the reason Axl had to bribe was because the club was closing. meaning no mor epeople there...axl wanted to finihs his partying with the crew....

I live in Nj...the NY post is as legit as it gets. FOr any1 who doesnt believe this article, you would be incredibly dumb. Its def tru....

read the article..Axl shows up with a few people around 5am...club is prob closed or just about to close. no1 is probably even in there....and why is the driver getting th ealbum far fetched? You dont think Axl carries that around? He wants peoples reaction if he meets people. He wants to see how it sounds in various settings etc....

news will be coming around the corner ...bank on it
