    The "Better music video" - what happened?

    in 2012

    Posted · Edited by TheDemocracyRose

    On December 30th, 2008, Rose wrote on the message board "Lars isn't holding anything up with our video. Our message board comments were meant casually, in fun and amongst friends...We hope to have our video out shortly."

    So I guess the Better video exist...

    Announcement in two days?

    Yeah right, I spend too much time and energy wishing for the CD to be out. The whole process sucked some major ass, the retardness continues again. Innuendo, lame ass comments (like this and "we plan to start writing" again) and nothing happening. The same old thang, and who cares - I hope none of you would pay any attention to this lame ass project titled "the next album" as it will waste your time (for years), irritate your nerves, drive you to endless and pointless debates and quicker than you notice another year has passed without anything really.

    Don't get me wrong, I love CD. Fab album, but the (too) long wait did take something out of the record, maybe mainly because of the bootlegs and knowing majority of the album in advance. I don't want to get dragged into that thing again, I surely want to see a new album and if it continues with the same direction and quality - I will certainly love it. But I'm sick of this mysterious way of discussion matters and "Oh I don't want to say as it might piss of Axl" attitude within the band. Please tell the fans if the new album is realisticly five years away or tell them if they can really expect it shortly. Be open and shut the fuck up with all that pointless innuendo, it is so very boring.

    "The General is a pompously awsome track with one flute, seven saxophones, 2½ triangles, 54 tracks of crumblin' egg shells, kick ass sitar by Ravi Shankar and of course one voice. It was written by the exciting four piece mastermind group of Rose/Shankar/Freese/Huge. You'll get love it soon"

    Exactly... :thumbsup:

    Izzy, lol! I remember facing him each night during Patience, with my volume knob down........I'd be showing him each chord before he had to play them, lol! And he wrote the song! I'm still not sure if Izzy was doing that to fuck with us or not. He seems like the kinda dude that pretends and is laughing inside.

    New Guns' lineup coming up Roses

    February 17, 2012

    "'Chinese' is a very artistic record," Ashba says. "The more and more you listen to it, the more and more things you hear. It's really an intense record if you sit down and listen to it as a whole. It's Axl's vision. I do believe more and more people are getting it."

    Stepping out of stadiums and arenas for a brief club tour, which includes a stop at Chicago's House of Blues Feb. 19, Ashba, like Rose, traces his roots to the Midwest; he was born in Monticello and reared in Fairbury, Ill., before making his way to the west coast in the ’90s.

    Ashba was a seasoned hard rock veteran before he joined forces with Rose and Co.; along with releasing material on his own or in a myriad of bands, Ashba served as Motley Crue leader Nikki Sixx' creative partner in crime in his side project, Sixx:A.M., and also penned songs with Sixx for Motley Crue. In addition, he lent production expertise to albums by bands such as Drowning Pool and the Last Vegas.

    In 2009, shortly after "Democracy" hit record store shelves, Ashba became the newest addition to Guns N' Roses and has spent most of his time under Rose's thumb on stages worldwide. While GNR lore is filled with tales of intra-band turmoil, this, Ashba said, is hardly the case with the current lineup.

    "It feels like a family," Ashba said from his Las Vegas home base last week. "We're all up there and we've all got each other's backs. And the musicianship is just incredible. There's nothing that these guys can't play. It's a lot of fun."

    Guns N' Roses has also won over fans and the music press with their live prowess since Ashba came on board. While the band's history is riddled with troubled shows, the Ashba-era band is known for shows that clock in and past the three-hour mark.

    "We just wanted it to go well and we're really, really happy that it did," Ashba said of their recent live outings. "The press was really good to us, which is nice, and I think the fans finally got to really see Axl's vision. When he put together this new lineup, he put together some solid players, some of the best players out there. And it's a true honor to share the stage with all of them."

    Late last year, Guns N' Roses were named as inductees to the 2012 class of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It has yet to be announced what, if any, past or present members will perform at the ceremony, which is scheduled to be held in Cleveland next month.

    Ashba, however, has his fingers crossed on Rose summoning his fellow GNR bandmates into the studio in the near future for a follow-up to "Democracy."

    "I'm super excited about (the prospect of recording), being a songwriter and a producer," Ashba said. "That's one thing I've been looking forward to ... hearing some of the ideas and songs that are already done that Axl has, I can't wait to get my hands on them."
