ITW 2012 Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 (edited) Velvet Revolver has played it but I'm not sure if Guns ever has. Axl did a little Light My Fire improv back on the 06 tour. He'd have to change the "woke up this morning" line to make it feel authentic though. I wonder what Axl's favorite Bond movie is. Probably something we wouldn't think of like Moonraker.Rose Motel would be Barron drinking songs and sea shanties.A life, death, and travel on the high seas album is what I'm hoping CD II is all about.

wasted Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 By the end of CD we're kind stranded on an island. We need to build a raft hijack a ship. CD 2 will be like Mutiny on the Bounty meets A Perfect Storm.I think it must have been on a set list like Benny and the Jets is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITW 2012 Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 (edited) All you can do is kick back and listen to the tide go out at the end of Prostitute. Cd II will have to start off with a typhoon like track. Edited October 21, 2010 by ITW 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ITW 2012 Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 (edited) Tsunami Entertainment were Axl's youtube FBI at some point. Sometimes I think Axl is the Bond of the music industry. Chinese Democracy was just part of his top secret mission to take down Irving Azoff and Ticketmaster. Edited October 21, 2010 by ITW 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 They have developed in a similar way. Bond was more of a rugged misogynist to begin with, then he started dominating exotic chicks in foreign locations and doing pervy one liners, then he went big budget action thriller who has a few issues.

Longpig Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I guess brain would be oddjob.Or the American Reni from the Stone Roses, but that's not bond.Lazenby is the most hated bond here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Count Drugcula Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Lazenby is the most hated bond here.which is too bad, because his movie had Diana Rigg Yeah but from a Bond fan perspective we went from Connery...to this weird guy named George...and then back to Connery.My two favorite Bonds are Connery and Moore, with Dalton following them. Both of them are utterly original in their own takes on the character. Brosnan tried to be a '90s version of Connery, and then became Moore in his last movie, and Craig is just an amped up version of Dalton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NewGNRnOldGNR Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Axl Rose and James Bond are similar in that we'll never be able to fully understand either character. They're alike also in the sense that both seem to be incapable of becoming acquainted with other human beings (because of their eccentric lifestyles and mental complexities). Furthermore, 007 and Rose (despite the luxury at their disposal and “success” they can claim), are ultimately never happy with their exploits.

Colossus of Rhodes Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Tracii Guns would be Barry Nelson then right?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casino_Royale_%28Climax!%29a prototype... lolI was looking for a new James Bond film but found this 1954 version instead.

wasted Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 each movie has a new Bond girl, a new gadget, a new villain, vehichle. Same as GNR records. Always a new GNR Lady (Everly, Seymour, Beta), different type of Hat (top hat, bucket, fedora), diferent enemy (Cops, Media, Internet), vehicle (Harley, White 'vette, Van) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 most movies take about 5 years to make from pre-production thru post? See it like Axl makes Event albums like those event or high concept movies in the 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITW 2012 Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 (edited) The Chinese Democracy trilogy will probably be like Axl's Indiana Jones trilogy. Appetite was Jaws, The Illusions were Close Encounters and ET, and CD I is Raiders. He's Spielberg when it comes right down to it.

wasted Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 CD I was Axl travelling through the Gobi desert to Tibet, then find a secret passageway into a Buddhist temple where he had to replace a mythological Crystal Buddha with a bag of weed and escape to Shangri-la being chased by an army of Mongolians on horseback. Maybe CD II will be like Spy Hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITW 2012 Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 (edited) I've heard Axl say mutherfucker lots before, but never preceded by a yippee-ki-yay. Just add Hans Gruber and co. to the enemy list, and it's on. Edited March 8, 2011 by ITW 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Count Drugcula Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 (edited) Is anybody else reminded of all the actors who've played James Bond when they think of GNR lead guitarists? SlashThe original classic lead guitarist of GNR. He's definitely the Sean Connery of the lot. Played on their biggest albums and will always be the definitive GNR guitarist. Like Connery in Highlander, The Untouchables or Indiana Jones: Slash has found success outside GNR in his work with Velvet Revolver, Michael Jackson and Lenny Kravitz. No matter what he does though, the public will always see him as the lead guitarist of GNR; just like how Connery will always be seen as being James Bond. BucketheadThe enigma. He's the George Lazenby of GNR guitarists. Didn't stick around very long, but made a real impact with his work on Chinese Democracy. Very much like the impact Lazenby had on On Her Majesty's Secret Service. A small minority of die hard fans even consider him to be the best GNR guitarist ever. He was the first GNR guitarist to wear a bucket on his head, while Lazenby was the first James Bond to wear a kilt. Robin FinckThe Roger Moore of GNR. Was known to the public as the guitar player in NIN before he ever joined GNR. Just as Roger Moore was known to the public as The Saint on British television before he ever played Bond. Robin, like Moore, brought a different style to the role of GNR's lead guitarist: choppy, and some would say sloppy, but original nonetheless. He also held the role for a long period of time, just like Moore who portrayed Bond from the early 70's to the mid 80's. Richard FortusTechnically he's classified as the rhythm player of the band, but he does play his fair share of leads live. He's also been known to play the James Bond theme song during his solo spot at Guns shows. DJ Ashba and Ron "Bumblefoot" ThalThe whippersnappers of GNR lead guitar. Have yet to write with Guns so it is unknown which Bond actors they'll best match up with. No doubt in my mind that a comparison will arise at some point down the road though.I'd class Fortus as Timothy Dalton. The quiet, reserved Bond. The shady background man. and DJ Ashba as Pierce Brosnan. Brosnan tried to emulate a mix of Connery and Moore; Ashba tries to emulate a mix of Slash and Finck.BBF is David Niven, perhaps?
