Zint Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Did someone jump the gun a bit before thinking things all the way through? If so, no harm. A quick Wikipedia glance at the ratings of the Nebraskan school systems would explain.Fair warning, if you want to remain in this section, please refrain from personal jabs and insults.

trqster Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Good to know some actual news, pretty happy with what I hear. The most important thing to me as a fan is that Axl keeps doi g whst he does best - touring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNR123GNR456 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 If someone from the GNR camp happens to check in on this thread, let the record show that 99% of us on this board, regardless of each person's history or current level of frustration with this band, would all love to hear from Axl. Whether it's another visit, a new interview, or a simple email answering the 5 questions provided. And above and beyond all else, New Music.We want to hear The General. Soul Monster. Jackie Chan. Thyme. Seven. Atlas Shrugged. It has been, in some cases, well over ten years of hearing about these songs. But never actually hearing them. Enough is enough. And it sure would be cool to hear a status update from the guy who sounded so enthusiastic about this material, once upon a time way back in 2008.

Black Sabbath Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 In the next 12 months if we get the bluray, a SA tour and a new album them Team Brazil will have done a great job.No one said anything about a new album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naupis Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 As I said already, so long as they keep us informed of proceedings, I have no complaints. It was really refreshing yesterday to have Fernando shed light on those few things.Their version of keeping us informed consists of lying to us most of the time, so that is hardly anything that can be considered "refreshing" or helpful.

ManetsBR Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Look, I can assure you both Beta and Fernando read the email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 If Beta and Fernando read the Email, odds are Axl's read it and his wheels are turning on how to answer it, because whatever he says turns into a news item and scrutinized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thelonious Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 BBA smacks of jealousy, you're an embarrassment.Nah, it's not jealousy; it is commitment to what used to be the greatest rock n roll band on the planet. I just wish he would start updating his Twitter regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trqster Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 BBA probably just misses (as I do...) what real Gn'R was all about, before becoming this joke of a band a band managed by the TB family. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classicrawker Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 If the Vegas DVD happens it will be good news for those NuGuns fans who are in denial about how bad Axl's voice has gotten but for me I am only interested in new music made with the current band.....lets see if there is still anything to get excited about............Would they really release a DVD without touching up Axl vocals?BBA probably just misses (as I do...) what real Gn'R was all about, before becoming this joke of a band a band managed by the TB family. Meh, I have nothing personally against him but I find it hard to take BBA seriously with his past broken promises of interviews and major news he never delivered on and his past trolling of this forum............

ManetsBR Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I understand missing the Old band. I wish they were still together too. What I don't agree with is when this lunatic starts to spread lies about me and NGOG, about what we have said and done, and starts to bring his unnecessary cinic and sarcastic pessimism to a positive and hopeful topic like this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoBrA2168 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 So what did this letter say? Can it please be posted? And maybe their responses too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towelie Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 (edited) I appreciate the effort that's gone into this. Sure, it's a long shot and unlikely to materialise, but if you don't ask you don't get. It's certainly worth a try. On a seperate note, I really think BBA should be banned. I used to just think he was a douche but on re-evaluation, I'm confident he's a mentally unstable individual. He makes up fictional interviews, tries to pass himself off as an insider and generally spreads his negativity, repeatedly attempting to piss on the good intentions of the genuine fans who actually still give a shit about this band.

Estranged Reality Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Fernando should come post here more often, or at least see what the fans have to say. Even a small effort like that seems to appease a lot of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManetsBR Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 (edited) He was kind of acid and sarcastic, we have plenty of that here. What really bugged people is knowing that perhaps Axl was just on the next room eating a bowl of healthy cereal bacon.

PerthGNR Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Thanking them for acknowledging our existence. . Ok. Personally it seems a bit premature. I'd save the thank you's until we actually received the answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfierose Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Doesn't Fernando live in New York? I haven't seen them pictured together much apart from on tour. He probably spends far more time with his pretty girlfriend ( I would hope) :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highvoltage Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Guys, I've cleaned the thread up.BBA, you'll be taking 30 days off from the main section for ignoring the mod's multiple requests. As far as your interview goes, I PM'd you asking for confirmation of your source and recieved no reply for almost an hour before I locked it. Quit playing the victim card.Keep it on topic, thanks everyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimb0 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Fernando was always nice to me in person when I met him at shows. I think he picked up guitar picks and handed them to fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlsalinger Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Hopefully that experience has prepared him for his greatest life challenge yet - picking up that piece of paper with 5 questions on it and handing it to Axl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
