ZoSoRose Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Ok, now THIS kinda pisses me off!Ashba has NOTHING to do with this album's creation. He can say he's been a part of his history, as he contributed to bringing a lot of it to life live. We rip on him, but he at least is the "live voice" of a lot of the songs on it, especially those they started playing in 09. That's why I had him sign my copy when I met him. But he is clearly "acting" like he was on it here. If he said, "Wow, thanks, Axl! Glad I could help bring it to life, live!" or something like that, then fine, but what in the actual fuck?!No mention of the guys who made it, you know, your band mates?!For fuck's sake!

star Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) If there's no news of Bumble Foot recieving an Axl disc, then that will speak volumes Edited January 16, 2015 by star Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Even though Ron actually contributed to the creative process of the album and played on it. He must have gotten one, it'd be asinine to not send this to the folks that made it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Is that an award for the album finally breaking the 'ten copy' barrier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
star Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Maybe the idea is for Ashbar to play the disc, listen, and learn ;D Edited January 16, 2015 by star 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towelie Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 Is that an award for the album finally breaking the 'ten copy' barrier? I think the figure ten is the amount of extra copies the album sold from Ashba's fanbase.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfierose Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Is this a new award or one he's randomly taken off the wall and sent? DJ sounds as if he wasn't expecting it (that doesn't mean anything of course, for all we know he's been asking for one sending for the last three years) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bacardimayne Posted January 16, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2015 So rather than giving that to one of the 4000 people who actually played on the album, he gives it to the guy who has absolutely nothing to do with it and butchers half of the solos from it on a nightly basis? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lio Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Is this a new award or one he's randomly taken off the wall and sent? DJ sounds as if he wasn't expecting it (that doesn't mean anything of course, for all we know he's been asking for one sending for the last three years)Maybe he did take it off the wall, to make place for the new album.And, as one Ashba fan says:A gift so deserved ! It's finally a reward so much deserved given all that you bring of wonderful in the group !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If DJ figures this out he passes Axl's ingenious test and is allowed to make contributions to the next album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dando Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Did Josh Freese get one as well?Josh should have done, he co wrote Chinese (the song) , I like DJ but all he's done is tour the songs not record them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Embedded image for the lazy:Didn't Chinese hit 1 million before even going on sale because of the Best Buy deal? Why is DJ's name on the record (doesn't look quite like his signature, maybe Axl wrote it?)? Why now? Is it a message, like, "Hey, one day we'll hit 1 million with our own Axl n' DJ album"? So many questions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
