2020_Intensions

I can't believe it either. It's fucking hideous. Absurd was kinda cool ... Then they pulled the cringey juvenile bullshit with Hardschool ... This is just no effort level

I think it's obvious that all involved don't regard the band in any way close to the same way we hardcore fans do. They can tour any region of the world, as many times as they want, play new (different) songs each tour, and have a blast the whole time. I can't see any internal turmoil over a lack of "new" music. As I said before, I'm sure from a creative standpoint Slash & Duff look at UYI as the "end" of GnR.

Yeah, aren't Slash and Duff actual partners in GnR? The rest of the band are technically employees, right?

No, he said that in an interview a really long time ago. Because the lyrics are juvenile or something like that.

Yeah, Axl said he didn't really like that song and it was never even played during the UYI tour. Now that I heard that last night, Think About You is the final song off of Appetite that I haven't heard live yet.

He asked for me to get banned too .. Some sense of self entitlement I guess

Okay ... This is honestly maybe the best I've heard Axl sound since before the reunion ... I'm in shock at how good he sounds ... No joke ... This is fucking crazy

I sung along with Wichita the whole time .. Love that song so much and Axl sings it so well

So I have to say, Axl's classic "Mickey" voice is gone ... The way he sings now is very good for what he can actually do ... Listening to SCOM right now and it actually sounds really fucking good. If you're worried about Axl's voice and it's stopping you from going to a show, don't let it. He is still a fucking machine.

They're starting!!

Waiting for Guns to take the stage

Maybe I'm mistaking you with somebody else, I thought you said you weren't going because Perhaps wasn't out

Even though Axl can't sing it well anymore ... I will freak the fuck out

I'm so hype to hear Bad Obsession and Pretty Tied Up .. I'm also really excited to hear Down on the Farm which has always been one of my favorites off Spaghetti .. My girlfriend is also hoping to hear Down on the Farm LOL

Oh okay. Yeah we got into town around 3 been here drinking. Closest to place to drink to the stadium are breweries but I'm not into craft beer so I'm like 10 min away. Gonna drive on over around 6. Not really interested in hearing the Pretenders.

I ended up at Chick's here now

I thought you were boycotting?? haha

Well the girlfriend's home from work now ... Onwards to Hershey!

Oh yeah sure. But you also have to acknowledge that the band that released the follow up was an entirely different band then the one that released UYI. Just for accuracy's sake, it's not fair to claim Chinese took 15 years, when it only took 10. What you should say is Axl took 15 years lol Even with a new album "right around the corner" they were an oldies touring band for the 2002 world tour lol

I'm not familiar with that. I don't care about or pay attention to any "back door" stuff this forum sniffs out. It's all conjecture to me.

They were not Chinese sessions though. The sessions that produced the material that would become Chinese Democracy began in '98 with the first Chinese lineup (Rose, Stinson, Freese, Finck, Tobias, Reed, Pitman).

Just to be clear, because I see this kind of assertion repeated all of the time, Chinese Democracy did not take 15 years to be released. 15 years is the time between Spaghetti and Chinese. The recording of Chinese did not begin until 1998. So it took 10 years to release.

Or the rock news outlets are using this forum as the original source. They don't know shit. They're just as clueless as casual fans are.

Get that guy outta here!

They were $80 just last week.
