Boazg Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 You just got to love this guy. I'm glad that "get in the ring" attitude is back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plonker88 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Fuckin interesting read, not much more to say on that. Hope the press pick up on that twitterRemeber we saw Beta scanning the suprise gigs threads, seems she reads the threads, and gives Axl all the beefs the fans are having.Nice he's using twitter to comment on those issues.I was surprised to see him mention the lack of hardcore fans getting into the surprise gigs.That's what gave me the idea, think were the only board that was bitchin' bout that.That speaks volumes about this place and some of the people in it.....

Agree. Axl is living a second, or third youth these days ... his old attitude is back, he is singing as good as in the 90´s and the band is great ...

wildhorses Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) Didn't understand that "ur boy" part either, and the "stone cold" comment following. This is getting so mysterious, I wish Axl would come out and explain it better before it becomes another whole thread of bullshit theories! Its a figure of speech - he is referencing the journo's who actually believe their own bullshit Edited February 17, 2010 by Teejay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a figure of speech - he is referencing the journo's who actually believe their own bullshitWas about to write something like that. To my understanding "ur boy" refers to any of the "journalists" that keep using every opportunity to write negative stuff about Axl and GNR.

dtjmf13 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Axl just posted this on Twitlonger:Fuck!! The NY shows were insane!! Love the free form laid back vibe n' both were completely different from r view. The fans were AMAZING!! John (Varvatos) was really great! And to keep CBGB's rockin'?! Badass!! Goin' into Rose Bar was rough on some. Lotta best left memories from the old hotel. The gig helped w/some o' those. Felt really good on stage. (We actually "LIKE" playing together n' I absolutely agree some things should b a lot less complicated than others made them in the past that's why we're together n' other's by their own accord ain't here.) We all had a great time, it was a madhouse!! Thanks to everyone who came out n' those who helped put 'em 2gether. Good to have a short break n' gear up 4 South America. I LOVE NY!!On another note Guns is now managed by Doc McGhee n' we're off to a fun start. Big welcomes! It's nice to have the support!!Elsewhere:Canadian tour n' Slash banned clothing nonsense: which I addressed live as soon as it happened but hey fake allegations from unreliable sources bein' negative n' all especially w/us n' these issues got more weight to n' 4 aholes. Fabricated from a 2001 bs RS piece from Rock N' Rio. Bottom line Never happened, end of story. Fuck TMZ, ContactMusic, Spinner (I got ur attitude.)Goin' on late at Rose Bar nonsense: Nope, Nopity, Nope!! 1:30am on time! U got played!! We were asked to do a show for fans n' friends etc. We were told when to arrive n' when to play between 1 an 2am which we did exactly. We didn't perform for the press or their deadlines other than that they were there. We do our best provided we r treated in the same manner to be polite n' cordial. The past can kiss ur ass, not gonna happen here. Under other circumstances n' advance arrangements things may have been or be different, w/these shows they weren't.Goin' on "hours" late in Toronto nonsense: Based on set change etc. went on 1 hour 8mins late w/circumstances beyond r control n' last minute physical injuries from earlier performances (which took that hour to find ways to deal with) n' could have cancelled the performance not "hrs". Apologies were made. If u have a problem w/any of that or especially if u weren't there fuck off. Not doin' surprise shows for the hardcore fans nonsense: Sorry some feel that way. Saw a lot at both gigs singin' every word in every song. We made efforts to get several if not all fans who contacted us n' were in town into these gigs. We also didn't know most of the guests as we don't live here n' for that matter what makes some internet fan more hardcore than whoever else anyway, oh that's rt...nothing!! Some just like 2 bitch 2 bitch. So if ur complainin' n' u drink beer, today I recommend a Lucky or perhaps a Red Stripe...if ur still peeved...again, fuck off.I sweat nonsense: On ur mama! Really? That's what u write about? No shit! I work hard, it's good for ya n' I smell better than u!!Takin' shots at Slash n' reunions over Haiti nonsense: Never happened. Wasn't aware of any comments from the old lineup.So in closing...Fuck the LA Times, TMZ, Contact Music n' Spinner. I don't need "forgiven" for alleged n' fabricated nonsense. I've no respect for mean spirited aholes gettin' paid talkin' shit at other's expense or irresponsible biased partisan politics wanna be journalism by dated hacks. Go on! Back ur boy! But when he says he never killed no one that ain't exactly true. Yeah, that's right, stone cold. So if we happen to play your neighborhood or for that matter anywhere at anytime regardless of the circumstances, presales, public sales, give aways, even free shows consider yourself uninvited. It's a free country but you're formally n' publicly not welcome.Bottom line is we ain't makin' efforts to rain on ur parade why piss on or take cheap shots at r's. Oh that's rt...how u make ur livin's all that counts not others, whatever. U ain't above anyone regardless of who or what corporation u work for n' unfortunately most of u'll get to learn that the hard way. Everyone else... "this called Double Talkin Jive Mother Fucker!"

GivenToFly Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 It's a very good thing that he has finally decided to communicate with the public, and actually saying something, responding to rumours and speculation etc. This should have happened years ago.

Young_Gun Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Axl is right, we have nothing to complain about anymore. We have Guns touring, 3 hour shows, Chidem heavy setlist, Ron playing the actual solos instead of free-forming them, earlier starts to shows AND Axl is communicating with us! This is probably the best time to be a Guns fan(excluding old line-up as i was much too young at the time)! Il even say this is better than when the album got released, and i absolutely love the album, but this is the whole package. Heres hoping the tour can keep rolling until, dare i say it, the next album! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young_Gun Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Axl is funny. It'd be nice if he wrote something everyday. Something to keep be awake at work. Id prefer Axl to keep it sporadic, otherwise he would be like Courtney Love or Ashton Kutcher(pretty much having no careers and being on Twitter all day).

God of Thunder Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Gsus, he really seems to read the forums pretty often....wasn`t that ridiculous "Axl sweats" thread on this forum? LOLAnyways the mood in the band seems to be great, can`t wait for SA to happen. Also it is pretty great that Axl is communicating with his fans over twitter and keeping us in the loop.
