    Now here's a thought - Possibly get one or the other on stage with each other - I'm pretty sure Axl would do it if asked - He's a huge fan of PJ, always has been - but getting EV up there with Axl? I don't know....

    whoa...Axl is a PJ fan? what the heck? :D haha. Where did you hear it from?

    If it's true, that's cool :p



    Also, speaking of artists he "respects," apparently he likes Christina Aguilera's voice and called her the best vocalist of our time, or something along those lines. I suppose that explains the supposedly little excerpts of Aguilera's "Beautiful" in a solo?

    Axl said something last night that I only caught the tail end of... it was something like, "...sincerity... and once you learn to fake that, you've got it made."

    I honestly hope I didn't hear that right.


    He has a very sarcastic sense of humor.

    Definitely true - Slash hated PJ, Axl loved them - pretty interesting huh?

    Piss off. Those folks deserve rock and roll as much as anyone else.

    Actually, jacksonville itself is a pretty big city (but it doesn't have that feel)

    You gotta give these guys SOMETHING.

    Well now Slash spends his time whoring himself in a Volkswagen Commercial and playing with that heroin infested nimrod Weiland, while Axl is performing 2.5 hour sets and getting into fights with Tommy Hilfiger. Sounds like their meant to be apart.

    Did you actually see the Better version of that commercial? Harley had it on their site for a day, then it got taken off. I think GNR management didn't want it released yet. But I think it's on youtube, i'll try to find it.

    Not sure if you guys heard but Axl & Crew took a lot of heat for cancelling a gig in Maine that only 3K tickets were sold for - claiming the fire marshall gave them problems - a lot of people are questioning it - and it scared a lot of people that this tour would implode -

    But , on a brighter note, they played the next gig, of which some of the people who had tickets to the cancelled show, were allowed to attend, and all went well

    MSG tomorrow night - Looking forward to it

    I didn't believe the original story for the cancellation but since then Axl and his manager have actually posted on the biggest GNR message board giving their side so there must be more to it than just Axl flaked. Looks like a decent show last night, some sound problems but they did Down on the Farm again so thats cool.

    It says "forthcoming"...CD has been "forthcoming" for about 13 years.

    Yeah, Down on the Farm is cool, but you could seriously replace that with any number of the obscure Illusion songs, and the fans would like it better
    Ah, Fuck it - at least they're mixing it up a bit, I guess.

    also, i checked on papa roach's website and he's not going to be in b'more on monday with gnr, but sabastian bach is.

    is it just SB? is there a chance that axl could play before midnight! i don't understand why TM doesn't have this info on it, listing the opening bands.

    whenever axl doesn't show up and you see people turning over cars and shit, that will be your notice that it is cancelled.
