CHI DEM, greatest hits tour, etc......

[Jameslofton29]

maybe it won't be as amazing as afd or illusions but from what i've heard I believe it's right up there along with it.

Actually, I do place the CD era songs up there with the old shit. I think I'm one of the only people that doesn't even listen to the old material anymore. I havent listened to that material in ages. Which makes it even more frustrating they dont have the guts to release something. The new material can easily stand on its own.

looking at all of your topics, and reading all these comments made me wanna laugh.....

I used to be a huge GnR fan - wow...i really, really loved them. Went to many of their concerts, had always all the updates, etc... But after 1993 everything changed, and it will be like that - no matter what.

when it started back in 2002 - i was laughing, 'cause they really looked like a bunch of clowns, and when i went to the concert i was really embarrassed for them - honestly. By the way - Axl admitted that by himself to Kurt Louder on MTv, that 2002 - was a big catastrophy.

then for 4 years we could see few notes about Axl and his musicians, that pretty much nothing was going on. Then blaming Buckethead's leaving the band for the album delay... PLEASE !!!!!!!

And now when the year is almost over, when Axl started the whole process of bringing back the band to life again with concerts and empty promises, we ( i mean fans) are still with NOTHING !!!!

Here are some of mine personal thought - would like to share them with all of you, and see possible comments.

First of all - the mix of people in the band - WTF ???? Three guitar players???? Two piano players??? Why Axl didn't hire the whole orchestra?????

Glorifing Finck as the best guitar player ever.... PLEASE !!!!! Finck dosen't really know what the guitar is for, and fucked up all the guitar parts - during the summer concerts. I dont know about the new stuff, so... cant really say anything.

Second of all - all this chinese democrasy tour was a big mistake too - no mentioning the new album whatsoever - for me it was more like "greatest hits" tour, with some hints of what may happen soon, and their headline song should be - "Yesterday" - honestly, cause the words fit so good to the whole story.

Plus being at few concerts got that feeling it's too much Roses, and just few Guns left..... which is sad

And last but not least - my theory of the new album...

I think Axl want to gets closer with the releasing date to Velvet Rovolver's new album, so they can compete what is better....

Actually i can bet my ass this is gonna be so true...

Let me know what you guys think of that

Sincerely

I ain't the first

dear noob,

fuck off

comprende?

Hey noob, how about you fuck off too? Capiche? December 14??

This dude has alot of good points, that some of you brown nosed Axl ass-kissers don't want to admit.

Last bording call for the train to 1992..

My trip should be rather short since I'm only 1 year away in 1991...though I must admit I'm not going to like the overproduced 12-person band they toured with that year...when's the train to '93 scheduled to come in?

PLEASE! Stop quoting what you hear other people say. You werent there. I love this new version, but you kids will NEVER get to experience the gnr we grew up on, and that is ashame. I seen them in Pittsburgh stadium, packed full! That "overproduced" show was the best that I have ever seen. Sure, I will admit it, Axl and this band sound tighter, his voice actually might be better, and he looks healthier. But no bootleg of these shows can ever bring the experience to you.

I was there, and you cannnot compare the bands anymore than you can compare Van Halen w/out DLR or AC/DC w/out Bon Scott. It is a different feel, yes, but who gives a shit. When I first got on this site I was kinda like you and went to the "you werent there" card as well (only I wasnt dissing the current lineup like you are). But you know what, who cares, they are different, and to them the NUGNR mght have given them the same or better vibes than we got . Sure the impact wasnt there, but these people are on this site for a reason, they love the band (most do) and you cant tell another person his passion. Bumblefoot might be someone elses Slash and you have no right to deny them that cause "you were there". I made that mistake, but after getting to know these guys, there passion is there too, albeit a bit miplaced at times , but there.

Sounds to me like you are stuck in the past, and that makes you incapable of the getting the vibe these new fans feel, so lay off and stop the bullshit, it makes you look shallow.

And by the way, I have seen them twice this year, and there is someting original and raw about this band like they were before, they may still create another revolution, and you will be too damn close minded too see it, jackass.

Shit, I'll get on it to. Music was cooler in general back then and I was only 6 and would love to reunite with my childhood.

You are a fucking asshole! Or maybe you cant read? Where did I diss this band? I SAID if you like gnr than you should like whoever is in the band. Stuck in the past? I seen them in Cleveland this year and loved them, I support the old and new band. Your reply to what I said makes no sense. Show me 1 line where I diss the new band, or i am stuck in the past. Just remember, the past is why this new band is here today. Maybe before you reply, you can get someone to translate this for you.
