Yesterdaze Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I hope I'm not being misunderstood. Of course, I'd prefer GN'R to play, but it would be incredibly lame if no one played any GN'R tunes.It would make the band look like a bunch of big babies and make things even more incredibly akward, as in "that's it?"

Not just Axl, like some would like to believe, all of them are.I just don't want to hear any of the classic music covered by people who have the potential to put Fergie to shame.

AXL_N_DIZZY Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I don't know... maybe "My Michelle" or something would at least be interesting. If it's a trainwreck- so what?? The whole thing's a trainwreck anyway and maybe that would just be the cherry on the proverbial sundae... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinaleblood Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 If they really feel they MUST cover a song, then I hope it's CORNSHUCKER.You know, the whole song will be censored by beeps and we won't hear anything. :xmasssanta: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yesterdaze Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) Bottom line: if there is no performance of any kind, I feel that the whole thing is very, very half-assed and totally akward.Has there ever been a band inducted that has neither performed or had others perform in tribute to them?Just to put things into perspective, let's say the Chili Peppers get 30 minutes between induction speech, acceptance speeches and performance.How dumb and condescending would it be to have GN'R have half of that and half of the thunder? If they're not going to play, at least someone could represent their music and the bandcould take honor in that a reputable rock band, one of the biggest of the last 20 years is paying tribute to their legacy. Besides that, you're all really jumping the gun: Green Day could reallysurprise you, like it or not and put on a unique and fitting performance. I always thought Limp Bizkit was dogshit, but their performance of Sanitarium at the Metallica: MTV Icon showwas done very, very well.Since I'm not holding my breath for the boys to get it together, I'm eager to hear what Green Day comes up with.I'm actually pretty excited for the whole works and it's hard to believe it's already next weekend. I actually have butterflies. Edited April 6, 2012 by Yesterdaze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scumcat Esq. Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) I don't want to hear GD at all. They couldn't have made a worse choice.If they really feel they MUST cover a song, then I hope it's CORNSHUCKER.You know, the whole song will be censored by beeps and we won't hear anything. :xmasssanta:If Duff and Axl performed this song (instead of Jungle or SCOM or whatever), it would be great.

I actually have butterflies.Haven't you heard their cover of SCOM? I'm not trying to be offensive to anybody with this statement, but it sounded like the most flamboyent homosexual in the galaxy was singing karaoke.Along with a talentless band just trying to strum something that didn't come near to sounding anything like the song.

Rovim Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I really dislike Greenday. I feel like there should be a 'fuck no' option in the poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandOla Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Yeah, that would be cool. But I also want Gn'R to perform too. Still keeping my hopes up on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackrose87 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 definitely no!! no way they could pull off a guns song and do it any kind of justice. However if they were joined by Slash,Duff Steven it might not be too bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, I'm kind of proud of them for not trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noonoo Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 cover of SCOMI'd really like to hear Green Day cover "Dead Horse", but they'll probably choose one that the general public knows, like "It's so easy".Don't ever underestimate those goofy bastards.

sleeper Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I voted no but..... If the band cannot perform because some members refuse to show up or show up and refuse to play some other band should cover a couple of the Classic GNR songs. If it is Green Day so be it. Duff is very close to some of the GD band members so at least it will mean something to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
