great music egos

Matty Boy

Americans are too stupid to grasp the humor of the Gallagher brothers. Noel and Liam are actually pretty down to earth guys and they enjoy making a mockery out of the music press.

Axl's easily the biggest psycho in rock history, but in fainess to the guy, he was molested and beaten as a child. Listen to Chris Jericho talk about how Axl's spiritual advisor sniffs the room out for negative vibes before Axl's allowed to enter.

"So what happens is he showed up and he had this lady come into the room first. This older lady. She walked in the room. She kind of (sniffing sound) like sniffed the air a bit and kind of held her hand up for a couple seconds. It was like "What, is she casting a spell? What is going on?". And then he came in, and I found out later that she was the Spiritual Advisor. And she reads the room and reads the vibrations in the room to decide whether or not Axl can be there. And she liked all of our vibes and he came in.".-Chris Jericho

yknow with this and another thread about axl rose here - i wonder, why do people still follow him around and indulge his wierdness and self obsessed behaviour - you'd have to pay me one hell of a lot to sniff a room and walk out and keep a straight face in the process.

I think id be saying '....i can smell a huge pill of ... hhhmm ... i think it may be ... hhhmmm .... shit.....

oh wait - thats just you....'

Surely he cant have that much money left after going thru muso after muso, paying for this non existant cd, and the lastest tour. I dont know about america, but in australia he coped the crapest reviews ive ever seen.

I used to be a pretty big fan around the appitite era, but after they toured here the first time back then, i was so disapointed and disgusted with what i think was the worst performance ive ever seen i hardly listenend to them again.

Anybody that charges over $250/ticket to their concerts.

But actually a giant sized ego probably goes a long way twards becoming a great artist. your average person with an inferiority complex doesn't "generally" achieve superstardom.

A Surprise Left

Axl- Complete wanker who has not turned up to concerts (and caused riots) but is a rock and roll legend who has helped to write some of the best rocks songs heard.
Billy Corgan- Egotistical wanker but great guitarist and songwriter.
Liam Gallagher-Got lucky that his brother could write such great songs, but is a bit of a loveable larrikin.
Scott Stapp- Had the world at his feet but his bandmates left and found themselves a better singer, even if they don't sell half the albums. Called Mark Tremonti a "wanker" on air in Columbus.
Bono-Does some great work but certainly has a "God complex". I don't like him but I certainly prefer him to any of the other guys listed in this thread.

oh, i so agree with you dude. I can't stand the guys face, everything about him is so annoying.

I'd say Madonna, she tries to look like a "high class lady". I just can't stand her!

axl rose- the mother of all rock prima donnas. he's moody, he sometimes fucks over his audience. but has anyone ever written a more rock and roll love song than sweet child of mine?

oh, i'd most certainly fuck him, but only once or twice, cause i'd hate to have a boyfriend like him.

talking of his love songs this is my favourite, and yes i see this moment as a great opportunity to post it here

Talk to me softly
There is something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
And please don't cry
I know how you feel inside I've
I've been there before
Somethin is changin' inside you
And don't you know


Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight


Give me a whisper
And give me a sign
Give me a kiss before you
tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now
And please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinkin' of you
And the times we had...baby


And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight


And please remember that I never lied
And please remember
how I felt inside now honey
You gotta make it your own way
But you'll be alright now sugar
You'll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now baby

I have always hated Guns N Roses, even before i realised how much of a prick that Axl was. Its just everything about them. I dont like their sound at all, the guitars or Axl's voice. Slash is obviously a great guitarist but i hated his style completely.

On a side note, i remember in the pub ages ago when i was going on about how much i hated Axl Foley, and how arrogant and childish he seemed. I think most were confused about how someone could possibly have so much hostility towards this ficticious character.

Although I love Marc Bolan's work - even his early pixie bollocks and his later, Gloria Jones-era coke shite - he had the most spectacularly humongous ego in the history of the universe. He once said,

"If God were to appear in my room, obviously I would be in awe, but I don't think I would be humble. I might cry, but I think he would dig me like crazy."

Hahahaha! That's a classic! I can absolutely visualize him saying it too
