authorized_dealer Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 And good for him!! We told him to drop the stupid jersey's and guess what happened on the first leg of the new tour? He is looking good and like a rockstar!! The leaks came and people started yelling he better play those leaks and he did but still with allot of bitching that we are downloading motherfuckers.We wanted some other songs on the setlist and he started bitching but guess what happened? Axl listened to us like a kid to his momma. He gave us new songs within one week after he probably heared about the fans bitching. First Axl is saying NO and starts bitching but afterwards we are always right and he follows our advices. Anyone who can't see that is blind!

But maybe who knows he has even tried since Slash came by his house. But on all the other things he is listening to us. He can't do what the fuck he wants because he likes to listen to our opinions and he follows them up. He is more insecure then we think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
final_touches Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Yeah, and we told him to play Estranged, drop the braids, release Chinese Democracy in 2001, in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005...No, seriously. I don't think the posts on this forum really had an impact on the things you mentioned. It's just that Axl alone decided to do things that coincidentally the majority of people on this board liked to see too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And about playing enstranged he doesn't know that. He only knows about the bitching about the same setlist not the details about which songs. And CD releasing and the reunion he knows we are bitching but he can't do that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren't in 1992? Most GNR fans are getting old and pushing 30. I think he is very unsure about himself and he listens to the fans. He was fine with the same setlist every night and all of a sudden he changes it? He wanted to do that himself? Yeah right he was bitching about people complaining about the setlist but he changed it after all this time. And about his clothing he was still getting spotted in clubs in early 2006 with those stupid jersey's. And all of a sudden in NY he had was dressing like a rockstar of his age. All those topics complaining really help something. Maybe not all but trust me they help a little bit. And you can tell that by the sudden setlist change since Axl heared about that recently.

invisible_rose Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Is isnt a coincidence at all. Forums are an easy way to tap into fan opinion.The comment he made about the bitching regarding the setlist - then he switches it and mixes it up a little. He'd be stupid not to listen to fan opinion. Regarding the reuninion and releasing CD - well, both are out of our control and to an extent Axl's. He can't do a reunion without the other guys and clearly doesnt want to. CD will be released when its ready. Simple as that.But why not listen to fans to taylor simple things like a set list to their tastes. Of course he's listening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kesseli Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 no. its all coincidence. he plays the leaks because he leaked 'em himself to have new tunes to play. he wears other clothes because he's not retarded.

dobadog Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Izzy is good, but i never missed him when he was replaced by Gilby during the UYI tour. Izzy left because he wanted to. Slash on the other had, he added something special to the Gn'R sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
authorized_dealer Posted November 4, 2006 Author Share Posted November 4, 2006 If i was Axl and i read this, i'd want to vomit..... on you.LOL i also vomit over Axl. He is an insecure fuck. That's why he is taking so long to bring out the album and that's why he lived a like fucking caveman for 10 years. The man is a fucking idiot. But i like the music so that's why i like the fucking idiot. He better do what we tell him to do otherwise he walks around like a complete idiot in jersey's like some gangsta rapper. Now he is dressed in designer shit and dating hot models again. So if he listens to us he will turn out just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you can tell that by the sudden setlist change since Axl heared about that recently.Agreed.Anybody who thinks the changes are all just one big coincidence clearly hasn't a clue how the music business works. The internet is the greatest tool for a musician and his management team to get feedback from the diehard fan base. And when those fans overwhelmingly express disappointment with a song he plays (such as Rhiad) or the clothes he's wearing (everything from the oversized jerseys to the granpa track suit he was wearing at an airport) or even how T-shirts are sold at a concert - they listen. This isn't to say they'll change everything that fans request -- but the input (especially if it comes from a large majority of fans on a forum) is definitely taken into consideration and addressed.
