I don't even like U2 all that much, but when I see this "charity careerist" thing thrown around about Bono, it's gotta be slapped down. I don't think Bono got interested in politics because he thought "oh this will endear me to people and make me a multi-millionaire". If anything his political beliefs has had a negative impact largely on U2. He is insufferable when he starts lecturing in the middle of concerts though.... but whatever, he's done some good work for poor countries so I give him a pass. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearl Jam has like 30 records, tours non stop, has a diffenernt show almost every night. There is BIG difference in WANTING to do something. Rose does not want to release new music. Its not corona, lawyers, "dont not how to in 2021". etc. Its I DONT WANT TO, period 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still not bad, but not exactly 30 records either. As for touring, they don't tour as much as you think apparently, definitely less than GnR has been touring in the last 5 years needless to say.

No, I wasn't, the poster I reacted to was doing that, and like someone else already explained, it's pointless comparing bands. However, if you still feel the need to compare bands (how pointless that might be), at least stick to the facts and don't make shit up. Pearl Jam hasn't released 30 records and doesn't tour non stop, like said poster wrongfully claimed, and that's what I reacted to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason why I mentioned that GnR tours more than Pearl Jam was to simply emphasize how off that poster's claim was in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTV88 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Eddie Vedder’s new album, his 4th solo and third since the last GnR album was released , is up for preorder now. Can we end this debate about who is or is not prolific with creating and sharing their art with the world? It’s tiresome 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we end this debate about who is or is not prolific with creating and sharing their art with the world? It’s tiresome was that what the debate was about? Axl is not prolific, I don't think anyone disagrees with that, but to compare him to other musicians is silly as every individual is different. For some reason, a lot of Gn'R fans seem to find it difficult to accept this and they expect Axl to release a comparable amount of material to other musicians just because those other musicians are prolific.

MidnightToker Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 In my dream last night, Axl and Vince Neil did an ad campaign for Taco Bell. They did commercials together and separately, like Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes in State Farm commercials. They sang "Home Sweet Home" together in one of them. Anyway, that's just one idea for marketing the new album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free Bird Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Why is it silly to compare musicians? Only point in comparing things, is because there are differences. Comparing musicians to other musicians or bands to other bands is the most logical you can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only point in comparing things, is because there are differences. Comparing musicians to other musicians or bands to other bands is the most logical you can do. apples to oranges kind of thing imo. We know Axl doesn't release new material very often. We've known it for years, yet some of us continue to compare this individual who takes his sweet time with his music to very prolific musicians. It's like comparing boxers from different weight classes for example. why would you expect Axl, who has released 1 album in 30 years and 3 singles to be more like Eddie Vedder? the comparison is pointless. Is Axl magically and suddenly going to change? or is it just another day of letting the coping mechanism do its thing instead of accepting we can't do shit about it so maybe it's better to enjoy what we do get which is more than nothing at all. it's not like Axl is forcing us to continue to be Gn'R fans or post on the internet about the band or give our money to him. Constructive criticism has its value of course but whining about it and pointing out how Pearl Jam is shitting an album every other friday isn't going to make much difference in Gn'R land.
