kanudo19 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I'm sure all of you would be equally lighthearted if the rolls were reversed in this story. Axl would never do a thing like they did, and if he does i'll stop being a fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NGOG Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) I'm sure all of you would be equally lighthearted if the rolls were reversed in this story. Dude, Axl gets ridiculed by other artists on weekly basis. Not satirized, actually ridiculed. Not many of us really care. Axl writes a typically Axl satire about a Superbowl performance - with no malice intended - and everybody is up in arms! What would YOU be saying if Dj ASHBA was seemingly "playing" an unplugged Les Paul? Edited February 5, 2014 by NGOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl would never do a thing like they did, and if he does i'll stop being a fan.So substitute karaoke with cover band or Mickey Mouse. Axl would find it funny? Axl Defense Force would find it funny? See, all fucking around aside, when it comes down to it, I'm a big proponent of the Golden Rule, so Axl should be the last fucking person casting stones.I'm sure all of you would be equally lighthearted if the rolls were reversed in this story.

SunnyDRE Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I don't see anything wrong with Axl's comments, but they weren't "funny". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Magisme, I think it's pretty clear (well, as clear as an Axl tweet can be) from Axl's follow-up tweet that he's taking the piss out of the media uproar over something so insignificant on the scale of world problems, not a potshot at RHCP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Axl can't write a coherent clause, let alone a coherent sentence, so who knows. Again, though, would Axl think it was funny if "karaoke" was exchanged for some other choice epithets thrown in his direction? Of course not.

Angelica Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) It comes off as passive aggressive snark to me. I'm guessing a brave resistance fighter managed to pass word along that the Peppers were being mean about the HOF debacle.And Mags is right, no way no how is Axl in a position to take pot shots (lighthearted or otherwise) at other artists at this point in what passes for his career.

But I agree with Amir. If you read how Axl started his comments he said he enjoyed the show. And he gave the RHCP the benefit of the doubt. So clearly he is not bashing the RHCP. Did Axl cross the line that separates funny from silly? Maybe, I´m willing to give you that. But the whole controversy is idiotic to begin with. ESPN should be talking about the game not about the half time show. The SB is about a football game. I guess the real problem is the obsession the media has for ratings and celebrity related stuff . And Axl decided to add his 2 cents on the matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volcano62 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Hahahaha I've never seen so many people butt hurt. Ya'll need to get off GNR forums if EVERYFUCKING single thing Axl does bothers you so much.Axl says Fleas had a google chip in his ass. Deal with it.The Peppers but not being "plugged in" at the Superbowl is a million times more embarrassing than Axl's "weigh in" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magisme Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I hope Kiedis and FleaI'm sure all of you would be equally lighthearted if the rolls were reversed in this story. You would be slating GNR for mimming and not Anthony kiedies' spin on the event.Do a little reading around. I openly called the Peppers' non-performance lame. Nice try, though.In all seriousness, I hope Kiedis and Flea don't lose 15 years of their lives over this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netcat Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 C'mon, you really don't have to be one of the Axl's Stockholm syndrome victims to appreciate the joke. it's fun. he's taking a piss out of RHChP, media, angry fans, and he also makes an ass out of himself. it's like a short story with no positive characters. i love his tricky psychedelic humor and i want more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay410 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I don't see the problem with the Peppers not being plugged in. It makes complete sense. They only get one shot, their performance has to be perfect and cued to a light show and fireworks and shit, and its 35 degrees and it was raining at the time. Why in the world would the NFL risk screwing that up?If playing at the super bowl, or miming, is embarrassing, sign me up for some embarrassment.
