Facekicker Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I think Axl has nothing to lose at this stage. Maybe if he fully embraced his psychotic side he could get people's attention again. It could be very theatrical. He could take a leaf out of Screamin' Jay Hawkins book and go full crazy with interesting results. I think he should stop holding back and really show his true colours onstage. He even has the skull cane like Screamin' Jay, although his smokes a cigarette which makes it that bit cooler. Maybe even Buckethead would be interested in rejoining for a full on weird album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 I felt when Bucket was there we could get some weird stuff. Sadly though most GNR fans think Silkworms is insanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristmasFnatic Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 He should jump to fans more often and attack anyone who mentions Slash. Sadly, on the Residency when someone threw ice, its BBF who called the guy out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerwave Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Buckethead is never ever coming back. Not for recording. Not for a single song in a single show. I guess the future of GNR depends on Ashba (or whoever Axl hires after Ashba inevitably quits) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facekicker Posted December 8, 2012 Author Share Posted December 8, 2012 Maybe he needs to come off the meds? It might also be the reason why his face looks bloated. My friend is on meds and has the exact same appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liers Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 I think if gnr continued touring and recording in 2002, 2003, etc, we would've gotten some weird moments and songs. Axl was a nutcase in 2002. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Facekicker Posted December 8, 2012 Author Share Posted December 8, 2012 He is still nuts but he is holding back for some reason. No rants, no passion - just aimless middle of the road safe boring Sunday matinee irrelevancy. I never thought Axl would ever be mentioned in the same breath as that.

Hustler's Revenge Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 how about some reggae? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No rants, no passion - just aimless middle of the road safe boring Sunday matinee irrelevancy.I never thought Axl would ever be mentioned in the same breath as that.I think he's just showing the record companies he can be backed and wont be a liability in terms of public view based on reviews and columns.Hopefully in the aim to get backing for promotion for a second album or even re-release if that was what he wanted.Total speculation though obviously...
