sammerc Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 A friend of mine knows how much of a fan I am of Axl so he sent an early copy of GQ (he prints the mag.) to me today! It is roughly an 11 page article. (including pics) I haven't got through it all......the guy who wrote it rambles on a bit. I find it so far pretty interesting. However, anything about him would be to me. So I am a bit bias, but I know from reading the posts that any little tidbit, people love to dissect on this board. So look for it! I am not sure if it is out in the stores yet...or in your mailbox maybe?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrettyTiedUp763 Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 (edited) I just bought it! Thank so much for the post because I never would of noticed. I would scan them for everyone, but I don't have a scanner. The article is not that great. The man just interviews one of Axl's old pals from Indiana. I never saw that mug shot before. His hair is all feathered. Lol. For anyone who wants it, Clive Owen is on the cover and there is no mention on the front. If you just flip through it, it starts on page 385.

The Third Man Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 (edited) what does GQ stand for?or is it just GQ?i never heard of itwhats its target audience? music lovers?Gentleman's Quarterly.It aims itself (or so it says) at a more upmarket "metrosexual" (stupid word) group of men.

odecom5 Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 GQ stands for Gentleman's Quarterly. odd that he gets an 11-page spread but there's no mention on the cover. i'll pick it up today. by the way, is this in the US or UK? they have different versions, I believe.

You know how these magazines always seem to be a month ahead!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammerc Posted August 18, 2006 Author Share Posted August 18, 2006 It is September's issue. It has a close up of Clive Owen on the front. His spread starts on page 384. The article stops and continues on a few times at the farther end of the mag.This isn't an interview with axl himself. This character interviews hometown (axl's) people/authorities.IMO it was entertaining. The guy is real descriptive on the moments before "YOU KNOW WHERE YOU ARE?" blasted out of New York for the first times in years and the energy of the place. Being that I made it to NY for 2 of the shows.....the way he describes it hit a spot for me. Makes you re-live that phenomenal moment.**For all who gets the mag, the photo shoot right before the Axl one, is hot and kind of an added bonus.

Axl_morris Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Okay im in the UK and i just bought it. It had Christina Aguilera on the front and no Axl Rose anywhere. Although it was called GQ the music issue. But there weren't any other issues and the shop sold tons on magazines....help!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
