The Sandman Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 If it is Axl why are people straight away thinking its from 2003 or later. It is a much younger man. The photo is defiantly not recent.No, it's not him. Full stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawrence Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 It ain't Axl. It's a cheap photoshop fake! Why are people still debating it?becouse most of the people in this section are idiotsoh the irony at least we can spell, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sandman Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Brain isn't black, why would there be a black man playing the drums for Axl?Brain has a heavy tan, what's the problem? Somehow I doubt that, unless he's been sitting in a sunbed since 2002.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBruin66 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 What gets me about this is:1) The eyes do look very similar to Axl's but it could be a pretty decent Photoshop job2) The drum set. It's VERY similar to Brain's type of kits. It's the same size tom tom drum up overhead, cymbal placement is similar and there is even a rack system over the drums which Brain also uses.3) Then there's the music stand. Look at that music stand in front of who were led to believe is Axl. How many backyard gigs do you go to with a band playing and see the lead singer using a music stand for reading the lyrics off of? Not too often but we all know Axl uses a teleprompter at concerts because he can't remember shit.4) Look at the guitarist on the far right, with long hair and some graying in his hair. Is this the new guitarist who replaced bucket?Who knows. But it's very interesting.But where is the top of the drummers head??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budweiser Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 alright, im a non believer --- has anyone tried to compare the drum set that is tehre to that of brains - - brains is fucking huge compared to the shit set thats in the pick -- plus, do you think brain would be wearing a northface? not too rock n roll. more jewish saturday sinagog to me...also, if it were gnr playing the equipment would much more in the excess... id think it rare to find random cords upon a shitty half stack. they have more money than to look that unprofessional.just my opinion.....

jah772 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Leave the guy alone.He said it MIGHT be him.He posted this to fuck with forum members, though, and also put it up on HTGTH, so he is asking for an asskickin. But, no one here really has given him any crap in rebuttals, so I'm not really sure why you want people to leave him alone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madison Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I asked a personal friend of Axl's what she thought of the pic. Here's what she said:"My first reaction is that no that is definitely not him. It is rather odd the similarities though. LOL That smile does not look like his... and when I saw him at Halloween he still had his hair the same so where is his hair in that pic? Plus that other pic he looks scrawny and Ax is very in shape and more muscular than that pic... "This friend has always been cool, honest and trustworthy.

eschman Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I think we should have a subsection for GnR fashion and non-music related stuff. Can't believe this post reached 15 pages.

Inside_the_frozen_beehize Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 To Jah. I really don't care what he posted.He hasn't insulted the whole forum because he hasn't insulted me.Is a picture like that worth starting a quarrel?So the guy is not Axl.O.K I've got it but what's the purpose of this argument?

gavgnr Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 ^^so Madison's friend's FIRST thought is that this isn't Axl, well I think that this IS Axl and whats more, I expect to be proven right SOON. I'll reserve my chewing for now, my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
