i m going the second weekend

got vip tickets but no camping or anything else, just go and see what happens :-)

I hate hearing dj play robins solo. Robin played his Better solo flawlessly last night. Clean tone, soulful phrasing and string bends.... I wish he played TIL and his Better solo proves it would have been amazing. He never played it live so it's not rehearsed so I'm sure that's why it wouldnt have happened. Fink coming out last night was like Brian May.coming out. He had a rock god presence, played like he's Jeff Beck and he out classes DJ. DJ with the top hot, cigarettes and Hulk Hogan like crowd interaction is Beautiful Creatures, Motley Crue etc... Not nu GNR.

Omg dj ashba is the biggest fucking cheeeeeese ball in the world.

i miss robin...

fuck off. way older and smarter than you shitface

i am a fan since appetite came out. i read this forum almost every day but i almost never post. i really loved finck and his style of playing and looks and dj a lot less but the beginning of jungle he just sucks. it looks so fake and ridiculous his moves. and it sounds like shit to compared to finck

just wanted to share this after seeing la forum vids. i m almost ashamed to show this to people

I've seen every iteration of Guns N Roses since 1987-2011 and last night's performance in NJ was a seminal moment for this band. For the first time ever, I feel like new Guns has stopped trying so hard to "be different", and instead, they are just working together to create the greatest rock n roll show possible. What i mean by that is before, it always felt like each member was trying to bring his sound out, to differentiate it from the original band, not just in style and technique, but also in the sound itself. As a result, you had all these different sounds and styles crashing into each other in the middle of a song. Not anymore. Last night, this band sounded like one complete unit working harmoniously together, almost like a V12 engine where every piston is firing perfectly and the noise emitted is sheer heaven. Take Sweet Child O' Mine for example. DJ and Ron blended their styles together SO PERFECTLY that you couldn't even detect when the shift happens during the solo (from DJ to Ron). It sounded as if all 3 guitarists where all playing off of the same guitar. As a result, this incredible wave of music was created that allowed Axl to fucking blow the roof off with his vocal power. Oh, did I mention, Axl Rose sounded and looked great. I brought a group of 10 people to the show last night, all of which were skeptical of of Axl's capabilities. Two songs in they were all completely blown away. The only problem with watching GNR for me is that it makes it impossible to enjoy other live acts. This band hits so fucking hard and has SO MANY great tunes, it makes other concerts pointless. I just end up comparing everything to GNR and nothing compares.

If you haven't had a chance to see this lineup, I highly suggest you take whatever means necessary to get to a show. And bring with you GNR fans. Who knows how long these moments will last, but take advantage of them while they do. Rock on...

i ve been reading here since 2000 or something like that, waiting and waiting and eventually very happy since oh my god came out on that soundtrack. i ve read a lot (of your negative bullshit) and now i read your post and it makes me wanna react

first the band does sound good and cohesive

second me personally i miss charisma and i realise that when i see old live video of the band like estranged oklahoma etc

third i really miss finck and his style and sound and looks and charisma (the only one that compares to duff slash izzy axl imo)

but then the real reason of my post that it makes you impossible to view other live acts... lol. you should go work for TMF and kiss asses...

gnr rocks live but chiili peppers with john frusciante, radiohead saitima show, john frusciante solo shows, placebo soulmates never die show, ..... and a lot of other bands have great live shows i would enjoy

i would love to see the cure again i saw them on the bloodflowers tour in valencia and it blew me away

so i read your post and i thought it was bullshit and i remembered your former (sometimes funny negative) post and i felt like reacting

cheers

i ll be in front row on the right. where finck used to play ....

thats just DJs place now

i know... and i don t like him too much. at the beginning of jungle hahaha that s something for a robbie williams show... :-)

i ll be in front row on the right. where finck used to play ....

does it matter? pfff not much, it was just an observation.

normally i never post, i just read the forums since 2000 but this was something i noticed and it seemed nobody else commented on it so i was wondering

but for me i prefer axl tinner, it s not very nice to watch an overweight and out of breath axl trying his best but suffering like hell. lol.

so for enjoying live concerts i prefer he s fit and agressive

when i listen to a record i don t mind if he s 60 or 160 kg... as long as i like the music

bueno, i m gonna stop whining lol

did he put on some weight again?

on the pics i ve seen it looks like he looks fatter than last year

well it s not that important but i did not read it on the forums yet so i was wondering if i m the only one with that impression

march 6 really shouldn t get peoples hopes up

axl said a couple of years ago in his statement

regardless we hope to announce you a release date in the next couple of months

and look where we are now

from axl's open letter:

"We would like to assure the fans that everything in our power will be done to meet this date. Once it is finalized and official, you will be notified. If we are delayed for unseen reasons, you also will be notified as soon as possible in regard to a new date, and the album will be released as shortly thereafter as is possible. We thank you for your patience."

since there is no news march 6 should still be the plan?

Show Of The Year: istanbul (judging by video), only saw them at rock in rio

Guitarist Of The Year: Robin

Best leaked song: twat

Most shocking news of 2006: axl's story about slash going to his house

Guitar solo of the year: solo twat by robin at 3:30

what a bunch of whiners

SUBJECT: thank you b-dY rf.calmclubbers

hello Mariko and beyond,

thank you thank you thank you for the birthday cheer i received from

You last week.

it was a real lift and I appreciate the drawings, and of corse, the

general sentiment of HaPPyBDy from friends afar.

I was in Boston, from a Portland cancelled. it was raining on and off

and I really should find other shoes to wear as I'll be following my

ankles thru the snow soon and all I brought with me are two patten

leather clogs. I'll get it together soon.

I had a time in the city and after a dinner with local friends, I

returned to the hotel bar to find the guys in the band awaiting my

arrival, all dressed like me with beards hats wraps tights and strings.

I was floored and we shut the bar down late.

thanks again for thinking of me and for taking the steps to let me know.

love,

r ob i n

i only read here almost never post but these reactions make me sick... fans and other musical nobodies thinking they know it better than axl and so much more profesional musicians...

yeah you re right robin finck cannot play guitar. axl and the band and a lot of other musicians they know nothing... LOL

i like twat more than november rain

it s more my personal taste, november rain never really was my thing. twat is

i really think it could be an awesome studio versio

knowing izzy came on stage last night and performed with axl (think about you and patience) made me pretty emotional. i know and like guns since 1988 and they were my heroes during my childhood

are there any pictures of axl and izzy together on stage?

how did axl introduce izzy or thanked him when it was over??

well if this guy joins than axl wont be the ugliest member of newgnr anymore

doesnt it has something to do with peta

trent supports an organisation against the violation of animal rights in china

saw the video but it is so horrible i just put it off

vdm

it has new metal influences in the middle

some guitar parts are like korn or similar music

but i like it

mood swings remind me of coma as well

it s been announced on portuguse tv

people need to stop bashing S.elsewhere.T

they knew this a couple of days ago but waited for the festivals to announce it

BB knows a speculative release date but shuts up as well

anyway the censoring of E.L.S.EW.H.E.R.E on here is like the democracy in china

is there a longer version than the 1:20 version i got??

my first impression of the leaked songs is that they are more complex then old gnr music

it s kinda like radiohead (not the style of music but the structures). in the beginning you hear a lot of noise and sound but every time you listen you discover new layers and melodies in it. first listen to twat was nothing special, now i love the song. i have the same with radiohead records.

i mean it s no patience, dont cry, scom, it s so easy.... that you like the first time. the songs have to grow on you.

i only hope there will be a few easy songs to put out as a single
