    An old, short bitch was rude to me when I tried to get up closer. They don't know what GA means. Right there in the crowd to the side near the front, a guy would not let another guy by him, it was pretty bad.
    Or maybe they think GA means first come first serve for the best spots and people shouldn't be pushing their way past other patrons who've already put the time and effort in to get a decent spot.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    I went to see the Black Crowes a year ago at a festival show and there was a huge field in back of the seats where people would put down lawn chairs to reserve their spots. BY the time I got there there was about 40 rows of lawn chairs taking up the whole center section, really pissed me off that these peole would put there chairs down once the gates opened and then they'd head back to the campgrounds to party.

    Cool. The frontman wasn't too bad actually. It just looked like he was glued to the stage!

    Just been to http://www.hmv.co.uk and the 18th of December date that it was slotted in for isn't happening. This is the message I got "This title has been deleted".
    This is horseshit, I've spent a year reading him bullshit us into believing that it was 'definately going to be out this year'. You know the worst part? Even if it is decent it is NEVER going to be good enough to justify aten year delay. I've tried so hard to not fall into the 'fuck axl' parade but I can't help it, and i'm not even a loyal fan, god knows how they feel.

    The more this album gets delayed, the more I think it's going to end up being the biggest fluke in rock history. I don't know why... it's just that more and more I'm beginning to think it's really going to suck.

    dont ever believe those HMV dates, they often stick in dates without having any kind of official info.

    i too thought this was finally gonna come out, all signs were pointing to it.

    I don't know, I mean I have seen dates posted on the site which people have said was horseshit and so many have turned out to be true, I actually get the impression they are pretty on the ball, I mean I knew the date of the Avocado was up weeks before any news leaked, and it turned out to be true.
    I agree, I really thought it had a chance of coming out.
    DOSW, I don't blame you, I htink Axl knows the expectation and is deluded enough to think this horseshit will make the sales skyrocket. To be honest I can see it coming out and just bombing.

  • I went and saw GNR yesterday at Auburn Hills Michigan. The show was awsome. Axl was on fire. He was singing amazingly. He still has it. Wow. The band sounded good but not as good as the original. As far as someone comapring them I would think that by having an extra lead guitar player on stage they could play more like the album because most albums have layered guitars. In real life you cant play every thing unless more guitarists are on stage. But without slash I think the guitar work loses it's sole. Face it there is only one slash, duff, and matt.

    You can't replace them all and have a band that can play the songs flawless and have the same sole. None the less the new GNR is as good as it could be with out slash, matt, and duff. They do a great job playing the old songs on a few songs they sounded really on. The rest were great but you know they were 95% there as far as being as great. The new songs are about as good as the worst songs on the user illusion album from what I can tell. By the way I like all the songs on Use Your Illusions so that is not bad.

    The new songs chinese democracy & better are the best new songs so far. I heard them last night and they did sound good live. Axl sings more normal on those two that is why I like them best. On some of the others Axl just does not sound right on the vocals in my opinion. I want to hear the new album soon.

    I think chinese democracy sounds like a song that could have been on the use your illusion albums other then the drum work sounds like a drum machine. If you get a chance go see GNR they put on a great show.
  • by the way Sabastien Bach opened singing all the skid row songs. Man that guy does not age. He still sounds great and is a great preformer. He was so full of energy. He was swinging the mic around a lot and doing a lot of head banging. He looked like he was having a blast. He did come back and do a song during the gnr encore.

    Well I don't think Chinese Democracy is coming out any time soon but I'm seeing GNR again on Saturday, I feel this thread is more about the shows than that album.
  • Have fun holtz.

    I'm planning on it, first time I've seen them this year and my 13th GNR show ever. THey dropped ticket prices for the show so I was able to get some more people to go with me. Thankfully its on a Saturday night so the 2AM finish won't be that big of a deal.

    Enjoy the show - It seems the first 8 songs or so are pretty much a set thing, but they are changing up the Democracy songs a bit, some nights playing Madagascar , some not -

    They did'nt play it at MSG - which bothered me because they found the time to play My Michelle with Sabastian Bach - which did nothing for me

    Anyway - enjoy
    I'll keep taking punches
    Untill their will grows tired
