Kaneda Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Just curious why people still come to this board...god I remember the good old days when we were all huddled together waiting and anticipating Chinese D. There was so much more to look forward to back then. So much more to discuss, ponder, and wonder about. We were all bonded by our curiosity. When leaks happened, we were the first to get them and share the music with our friends. What's keeping us here now? The band is clearly just cashing in now and heck, Chinese D material now feels SOO OLD...but the bad kind of old because it never became relevant. I just don't get it. These guys are some of the most talented musicians in the world and they are not even trying to make new Guns music. What's left to discuss? These Vegas shows aren't going to move the needle at all. In fact, my bet is these shows will be it for the current lineup. It just seems everyone is fed up and the lack of any real professional management (who's job it would be to get the big egos into the studio) means nothing exiting will ever happen. I wish I were wrong, but that just seems to be the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbo Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 (edited) It's true I don't agree with Axl taking the name, and the fact I really don't consider this GNR beyond the legal powers that be, but I still love Axl from a musical perspective.I would like for him to wow me musically again. I'm just waiting to see what happens either way in that regard, and enjoy the process with those who care as much as I do, from both sides of the fence.

Darkness Descends Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Waiting for Chinese Democracy. I guess 'soon' is not the word.

One.In.A.Million Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I come to this board because I enjoy discussing my favourite band Guns N' Roses with like minded fans. In relation to what I'm waiting for is simply more tour dates, and CD's follow up. Whether we will get No. 2 anytime soon remains to be seen, but I do hope that Axl manages to get it out sometime in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep talking to you expecting some kind of intelligent response, and you keep coming at me with this gibberish. If Blood in the Water is real, they can keep it. None of the other songs you mentioned seem to have any chance of ever being released, and if the words of the people that produced the Better video aren't good enough for you, you'll never be smart enough to realize that it is cancelled. Have fun waiting though.Ron played on every unreleased song, just like he played on every song on CD, so your theory that he wouldn't want it released flies right past stupidity and into the realm of full retardation. Again, you will never see any of it though, and that's nobody's fault but Axl's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towelie Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 A new album.At this stage, things don't look too promising in that regard. I don't know whether it's down to Axl's lack of inspiration or a general lack of faith/interest in the talents of the current lineup. It is obvious that the current lineup as it stands were never really a part of Axl's vision for NewGNR. When he was touring and recording with Finck and BH, he seemed genuinely enthused about taking Guns in a new direction musically. That enthusiasm from Axl survived BH's departure, but the combination of Finck leaving and the underwhelming non-event of the albums release seemed to be the final nail in the coffin for NewGuns.If he has any interest in collaborating with Ron/DJ/Fortus on new Guns music he sure has a funny way of showing it. A few years ago, I'd have been genuinely gutted if Ron quit the band, but these days I'm not sure I'd really care. It's increasingly hard to care about a band when the members themselves don't seem to give a shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
