    ... just off the top of my head while thinking about people just connected to PJ , let alone everyone else. I love GnR's music and always will. I will also always, think that Axle Rose turned into a massive dickweed who doesn't give a crap about his fans enough to even start a show on time. I have no probs with Slash though.

    Not saying any of them are, just saying that depending on your perception, most rock STARs could easily fall into douche category one way or another. I don't think any member of PJ outside of EV, falls into the rockstar category. Think about any rockstar with a name that most people recognize and they're gonna have some quirk or some part of their persona that people are gonna find annoying.
    Okay... I totally disagree. And Axle is way way worse than anyone I can think of.

    Guns N Roses paved the way for hard rock music and the bands from Seattle with Appetite for Destruction. Mother Love Bone seemed to be heavily inspired by this band. It's too bad they can't work things out. I would love to see the original lineup. The band (minus Axl and Izzy) sounded really tight at the RRHF induction. Axl was a unique singer and frontman: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ry-P9x9U ... ce=message

    Even though Axl is a giant clown-douche now, he is still one of the last great rockstars ever. Him, Chris Robinson of the Black Crowes, and the Gallagher brothers.
