sailaway Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 AXL, SLASH, DUFF, IZZY, STEVEN, MATT and DIZZY are the only ones getting inducted!!!!!!Yes.These guys are the only ones that ever mattered to GN'R. END OF DISCUSSION.No.MOVE ON.Yes.Flayer chill,this is a message board.No sense in having a stroke or blowing a gasket. It's perfectly acceptable to appreciate the alumni,while being mightily.impressed with the new lineup.I don't agree with some of the more embarrassing choices some of the alumni have made but I still crank out AFD.

sailaway Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I agree with you. Axl doesn’t care for a materialistic trophy; Slash does. Slash supports that mainstream, “relevant at all costs” politics; Axl doesn’t.Ideally Axl delivers a video sentiment which opens with darkness to reveal him in room with a cat on his lap.Thereafter he reads a section of his book on the breakdown of classic GN’R and lavishes praise on GN’R post-1996. Then concludes with “In 2012 there will be a new album”Reviewers lambast Axl as a self-indulgent, kitten-petting pussy."We'll get real Chinese democracy before Chinese Democracy" jokes are replaced with "The world will end before we get the next Guns N' Roses album" jokes.And yet despite that, the new record, whenever it arrives, will kick ass.Yes,the media-as a whole trashes Axl every chance they get a foot in the door.Nobody believed Chinese Democracy would ever be released either,So let them make their kitschy-assed comments while they can.I'm still laughing at your "self-indulgent,kitten petting pussy" comment. Nice analogy of how the media and "some" fans have their heads screwed on backwards. Ha! :xmasssanta:AXL, SLASH, DUFF, IZZY, STEVEN, MATT and DIZZY are the only ones getting inducted!!!!!!These guys are the only ones that ever mattered to GN'R. END OF DISCUSSION.

sailaway Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 From what I've read, Axl loved Sorum's drumming and loved how powerful he played. He said that the UYI albums didn't do his drumming justice due to how compressed it was. They met at a bar a few years ago and Sorum said they got on great, so I doubt he is bothered to be honest.Axl also said he couldn't listen to the UYIs with Sorum drumming.And he called him an Albatross( look up the symbolic meaning)Axl didn't pick out Sorum who was playing with the Cult,slash did.Having to find a drummer,with little time to spare,and a Album to finish sometimes clouds ones vision.But didnt axl and sorum settle their rift a couple of years ago??I doubt Axls pissed if he doesn't pay attention like he says..The opposite of Love isn't hate,it is Apathy. He ignores Sorum,which speaks volumes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailaway Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 What's this criticism of Sorum's 'repetitive patterns' and 'linearity'? On a 3 minute rock song with 3 verse/choruses, he has a particular job that he can only do so much with. Repetitive patterns? Have you listened to Slash, or Buckethead for that matter? lol Same shit all the time - and I LOVE those guys! There's supposed to be a kind of continuity in a rock song, especially with the drums. Listen to any Led Zeppelin song and tell me if the drums fills and nuances dont start basic and then expand as the song progresses. Steven Adler on the other hand, God love him, Live was so um...enthusiastic that he'd do these bigass meaningless snare fills early in the song and then had nowhere to go after that!I have no interest in listening to "Baron von Storm's" extra-curricular offerings. I also don't listen to Bucket,unless its a full moon and I've been indulging. Sorum is a deluded,fuzzy-haired opportunist who was in it for the Checks,Chicks ,booze and drugs.Peart or Portnoy could easily shit on him from great distances.That's not fair. Peart and Portnoy shit on everybody in general...True, just tossing some names out there so people will stop proclaiming Sorum as phenominal.

Chewbacca Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Axl probably doesn't care. He must be pissed nuGnR wasn't inducted. They deserve to be. It's a lack of respect towards Axl and everyone that spent so much time and effort in CD, and in keeping the GnR name alive. This is like inducting KISS but leaving out Eric Carr, Eric Singer, Vinnie Vincent, Mark St.John, Bruce Kullick and Tommy Thayer. Truth be said, Steven, as much as I enjoy his playing, never contributed to the GnR songwriting. Why is he up there? Why isn't Paul Tobias, who co-wrote Back Off Bitch, Oh My God, There Was A Time, Catcher In The Rye, I.R.S. and Prostitute up there? Where's West Arkeen? Without him there wouldn't be It's So Easy, Bad Obsession, The Garden and Yesterdays? This fucking sucks. Even nominating one of my favorite bands of all time, the RRHOF still pisses me off.

WhazUp Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 (edited) All in all I feel the right people got inducted. I am happy with the decision.

Flayer Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Why does Sorum get so much hate around here?It's a mystery to me...There's always been a hate-on being nursed for somebody...Robin, DJ, Dizzy, Axl, Slash, etc. Eventually they all move on. This one will too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
