    How is that Slash looks exactly the same as he did 15 years ago, but Axl looks like his Father?

    Slash is younger however Slash has been drinking most of his life and you can tell when SLash pulls his hair away from his face.

    I still dont understand what Axl is trying to do here... this is NOT Guns N Roses touring no matter what he wants to call the band... this is a shitty immitation.

    Back when GNR were a band... they could have ruled the world... but this narcacistic ass-munch Axl Rose, goes and tosses all that away...

    Hey... now I am a much bigger Pearl Jam fan since I dont have GNR dates to look forward too :-)

    Understandable opinion, and I still share yours that he should never have kept that GNR name. He should have went solo ala Ozzy. But, what you get, and what he's trying to do is give you a concert with all of the GNR favorites, except other musicians are playing the instruments - but that fucking guy is still the one singing - and no matter what anyone says - NO ONE CAN SING LIKE THAT - So it still works to an extent.

    Do you really think he sounds like he did back when they came out? I think the funny thing as well is that he is still making crowds wait till 10:30- 11pm tom come out onstage... He really thinks he is still on top of the world... GNR has played NYC once or twice recently, and i honestly had NO interest in seeing them... I may have been interested if he just toured as Axl Rose (but not really)... Chris Cornell isnt still touring as Soundgarden...(and he ROCKED OUT)

    Yet...here's a guy who hasn't released an album in nearly 15 years and he still holds our attention.

    The reason Axl's always late is because he's a manic depressive and he suffers from stage fright. He's not exactly the egomaniac that people make him out to be. The reason people still care about Axl is because he's still one of the best songwriters and frontmen in music history. I can't wait for the day when he lets the music do the talking. All the haters will be kissing Axl's ass if he releases "Chinese Democracy". From what I've heard of the leaks I would say that Axl's sitting on the best album of the decade. Supposedly the band is going to set up the release of the album after their current tour finishes on Saturday. Hopefully we'll get the album this year as music has sucked for far too long, and it's time for W. Axl Rose to come out of hiding and give music the kick in the ass, like he did 20 years ago with "Appetite For Destruction".

    Matty boy, your optimism is admirable, but I don't share it with regards to the release of this thing.

    I do share your opinions on Axl and I do think the album will be truly fantastic, but about a year ago, those tunes leaked, they were touring successfully, even Izzy was jamming with them, I was SURE he was ready then, but now, I don't know. I just don't see it happening. I'll be first on line to buy this thing if and when it does come out.......I'll bring my social securtiy check to pay for it.

    Don't Cry is an incredible song. I'd been checking in on the setlists from this tour and the past tours, but didn't know Don't Cry wasn't played. I can see how it would be emotional.

    I'm looking forward to Chinese Democracy, but I'm trying to temper my expectations. GNR was my all-time favorite band before PJ took over. I heard most of the leaks, and love There Was A Time. The version of Madagascar I have is rough, but it could sound great if it's cleaned up. The rest is so-so.
    May your days be long, til kingdom come.

    He's almost run out of Countries he can play without an album at this point. He could still play South America but that's about it. If he announces another tour, after this tour finishes next Saturday, than I'd say it's all over as far as "Chinese Democracy" is concerned, but we'll see what happens. You, me, and millions of other people will buy this fucking album if it ever comes out though. Hopefully "Sorry" and "Prostitute" will leak next.

    What have you heard? I think I've heard everything everyone else has:

    Better - The second half isn't as good as the first.
    Chinese Democracy - Not bad.
    I.R.S. - Meh.
    Madagascar - I have a rough version. A polished version would be great.
    The Blues - Meh.
    There Was A Time - My fav leak. Awesome.
    May your days be long, til kingdom come.

    Most of what you have listed.

    I've always said that Madagascar was very epic...much like Civil War.

    Madagascar , The Blues, And There Was A Time Sound Like Use Your Illusion Type Of Stuff - Which Is Cool, Because I Love Those Albums

    Irs Is A Cool , Basic Riff Tune

    Chinese Democracy I Like The Studio Version Much More Than The Live

    Catcher In The Rye , I'm Sure Would Be A Hit, But I Don't Much Care For It

    Better - Is A Great Song And Sounds Unlike Anything Gnr Has Done In The Past
