    well...i respect his hiatus etc and dont see it as him being unkind to fans.
    recently..he never failed to talk to fans or even take pics with them if approached at Airports,clubs etc.
    to me..he's always been a nice guy to fans...heck he even beat up security to protect a female fan in a hotel once.
    whenever he attacks fans etc..i think it's the fans fault for breaking simple rules like "No Cameras Allowed" or asking stupid questions like "Where's Slash?"
    the only time when i thought he was an "asshole" was in Montreal 92 when James Hetfield got burnt and he just walked off stage so that GN'R will recapture the headlines from MetallicA that night.

    And if the press say he is an asshole, the next day the whole world say he is an asshole.

    You have to admit that the 2002 tour had to sour folks a little. I don't quite understand why he pulled the trigger early on that tour. He should have waited until everything was ready.

    He has to build up a lot of trust with fans...I think that is a big obstacle...the music is great, but do we trust him to be there and put on a good show?

    i agree with the press not helping as well with bullshit lies etc
    there are many rockstars who have done worse..but they just arent significant enough for the press to report it...the press only report the negatives

    2002 tour was a disaster yes towards the end in December when his plane couldnt arrive in time etc causing the riot.
    hope no such thing happens on this year's dates.

    yup. Gn'R is coming over here too. :eek: apparently they're doing 2 gigs cause the first one turned out to be so popular it sold out in less than an hour I think.

    lol. my theory is that the rain somehow manages to kill her.. :rolleyes:
    (I'm not too serious with this) maybe she gets a flu cause she gets all wet and cause she is so tiny and slender she can't take it.. :p

    dont you notice the start of the video is Axl going to bed?
    so after that its all a dream...with his big rock show and rockstar wedding...then he wakes up at the end before the scene with the roses fading
    part one was Don't Cry's video
    Del James is Axl's friend who inspired the videos etc with his book "Without You"

    apparently no. i did not notice that. or maybe i just thought, and this is as likely as anything else i think, i thought the in between bit was him remembering.
    i'm going to go and watch it right now.


    so the rumours are true. axl rose does in fact have friends ;)

  • I must say that GNR is one of my least favorite "classic rock" bands. I'm much more of a Van Halen fan. Axl has an annoying voice imo and he's a royal asshole.

    yes it is..it's all explained in the VHS tapes Making the Fucking Videos Part 1 -4 that were released in 93-94
    and isnt the parts where he falls asleep and gets up like he's having a nightmare obvious enough that it was a dream?
    and he doesnt die in Don't Cry..can't remember the exact thing cos its been ages since i touched my tapes..but it has something to do with a certain part of him dying inside in 1990 and therefore starting afresh in 1991.

    PBM
    part 3 was suppose to include Stephanie and be something aboot her but well they broke up before they could film it..so Axl left that part blank and made Estranged's video which showed the after feeling of losing Steph and her kid Dylan.
    the bedroom where the police found Axl in the house was Dylan's room and that dinosaur was his fave toy.

    I LOVE the old Gn'R (Appetite, Use Your Illusion, etc...) but Axl's ever-changing Gn'R cover band is an absolute joke. Call it what you want, but it sure ain't Guns N' Roses. He should just swallow his pride and call it what it is: An Axl Rose solo album.
    "I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer. I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument."

    get ready for a response from AxlUlrich

    my question tho is this: while i am not completely for keeping the name GnR because 3 of the members who were there at the 'peak' are gone, especially slash and duff, wouldnt u say the GnR sound is still there?

    the underlying style that made GnR, well GnR, has remained and wouldnt u at least give Axl credit for that?

    plus, the other guys did sign off the name GnR to Axl didnt they? I mean, they can complain but at the end of the day, they DID sign it off. I dont really agree with keeping the name, but i wont blame Axl for doing so. It his right.
