  1. To me it will always be:

    1. Steven Tyler

    2. Axl Rose

    3. Freddy Mercury

    4. Robert Plant

    5. David Lee Roth

    And the rest is history! In terms of singing.

    In terms of showmanship then i would have to put David Lee Roth in the first place as he's the real deal and Tyler at 2nd place.

    ya, much closer to reality....Manson at 44 or wherever he is should be moved up to to 25 anyway. Sammy Hagar # 11 ahead of DLR...Cornell, Halford, Dickinson all ahead of Rose. Only cause this is a pure metal list but then again I dont consider Tyler metal...rock verging on hard rock at times. ..and Mercury...that ain;t Metal brah...didnt know Hit Parader was still in existance. Do they have a hard copy with actual subscribers in circulation still?

  2. the new song is just ok, not that good. version ashba to "better" is totally unnecessary and somewhat grotesque. the best version of "better" is the one that leaked years before the chinese.

    the best version of "better" is the one that leaked years before the chinese.

    Couldnt agree with you more here. I will never forget where I was when I heard the short clip of Better for the first time. That said....I would certainly like to hear these new leaks.......

  3. Your wrong, the tour was a success, after CD drops the next tour will be more successful. How many bands cna drop off the face of the planet for all those years come back with all new members and headline a show like KROQ? None. Of Course sales in some of the smaller markets could have been better but the played and are playing some shows in the middle of nowhere and we all saw this coming. The Fact that Axl shows up to every show and puts on a killer performance makes this tour a success. Comparing this tour to UYI is apples and oranges it was a different time in the industry and this tour lacks the support of an album. Once the album drops and Axl makes some big TV appearances/performances then you will see big sales. Maybe stadiums in the biggest markets.

  4. 6. Slash:

    Have you heard his playing in the last 10 years or so? He's lost a lot of the emotion he used to put into playing when he was with Guns N' Roses, frankly, I think he should 'retire' because, since leaving Guns N' Roses, his playing has went downhill. Velvet Revolver isn't worth even seeing live, or even listening to. The level that Slash used to play at, is no longer there, he will not be as good as he was before. Since 1993, his work has been going downhill. Listen to his Solo albums from Slash's Snakepit, they're mediocre at best, but hardly even that. But, don't get me wrong, I do like Slash, but since 1993 his work has not been to his full potential. Even the second Slash's Snakepit album, was hardly mentionable, and should not have been released. It was a huge flop on Slash's part. And, with the Velvet Revolver album, I couldn't make it through the first 4 tracks without turning it off, it was a very big letdown, not only for me, but other people who thought that VR might be up to par with GnR. Frankly, that is NOT the case. I haven't listened to the VR record since I turned it off, I was hugely let down, because it did not even come close to matching the hype that was made about it.

    This is the biggest and most biased pile of horseshit I have yet to read on this forum. Jesus.

    You hurt your credibility when you chose to include this in that letter. Like Moreblack said, you can't make your point if you have to bash someone in order to make the band look good. It just weakens your case.

    He isn't fuckin bashing anybody. He is just stating how things are. He explained it very maturely. So everytime anyone criticizes Slash, it's just a pile of horseshit? Now who is the biased one here? Pathetic dude...

    Well I don't think he's accurate with his analysis of Slash's post-gnr output. You mean to tell me Slash has not made one good riff since leaving GnR? Come on. I don't even LIKE Slash's work outside of Guns for the most part and I know that's not true. Do you really think he gave those post-gnr songs a fair chance? He even admits himself he stopped listening to Contraband after 4 songs. I mean really dude...that paragraph is HARSH. I just don't think he gave Slash a fair shake.

    In any case that's a moot point, because the main problem here is that he needs to criticize Slash in order to make the new band look good. Why not discuss them on their own merits and leave the ex-members out of it? Does denigrating Slash's abilities really make his argument more credible? Think about it.

    Criticising any old member is going to catch flack here, because unlike certain unnamed members, most of us respect the past which is why we all are here on this forum.

    He needed to criticize slash because if I read it correctly, The entire email is predicated on some dumbfuck DJ that said GNr ain't worth a shit w/out slash.

    whos that girl? whats her name ? and is it tommys girl or even izzys daughter :rofl-lol: ?

    WHAT THE JESUS FUCK????????????

    A8R

    Ha I was gonna post the same thing, Also Izzy looks like Mr. Magoo in that pic. Him and Steven Adler should start their own band.

  6. Thats fuckin HILARIOUS! Congratulations thomase! You're famous!

    Quick question guys.......what's his response gonna be? My money's on :P:P

    what im i famous for just because ron said my name dose not mean im famous

    Ur right not famous "infamous" but then only on this board for actually having annoyed the only gunner who makes an attempt to respond on a regular basis to the point where he complained about u during an interview. Fuck that's hilarious I wonder if he bitches to Axl about u? He only thinks it's cool cause you live 3000 miles away if u were in LA or NJ he would probably file a restraining order. :laugh: But seriously though I'm almost envious of you, wait no not really

  7. Ha Ha! All praise to thee Uncle Axl (Bromle)... Your music rocks man!

    :P

    KK x

    Well Thank you, but I would had much more time to work on Chinese democracy if it hadn't been for the fact that everyone is requesting sigs from me :(

    Now that u mention it can u hook me up w/ a sig? I'm got wat to much clout around here to go around sigless! :blink:

  8. Someone over at HTGTH said that KROQ reported two more shows at the gibson amphitheatre for december 21st and 23rd as well as the first two. Anyone else hear anything about this? It's be fuckin' awesome if it were true.

    Hey I will have gone to every show u have, + 2 in Vegas that's great! If Fink runs he'll get my vote :D

  9. Walking around college today I saw a guy with what appeared to be a self-made shirt that had 90s Axl and like VR era Scott Weiland and it read "I'd Rather be a Has-been Then a Never-Was" and on the back had the Chi-Dem star.

    Did they make these shirts, or did he just make it himself?

    I doubt Axl authorizes any shirts that refer to him as a has been, it's cool though if anyone knows where to get these I'll take 2 :drevil:
