#1311 Re: Guns N' Roses » Bach not touring with Axl this summer » 902 weeks ago
While I haven't heard any songs from Bach's latest solo album and have absolutely no desire to hear any of them (even the ones with Axl) I'll still give his band credit where credit is due. They write and produce albums at a way faster rate than another band that shall remain unnamed. *lol*

Baz is a fucking douche. Which is sad because he is a talented singer. But that's it. The guy couldn't write a song even if you held a gun to his head. I tried finding the clip of the interview at Much Music but I couldn't find it. And Russ not only will he be announcing what a great band Poison are every fucking night but in interviews Poison will now be the greatest thing since sliced bread. I really wish he'd just shut the fuck up. People here all kissed up to him due to his rekindled friendship with Axl. But they seem to be forgeting that when he thought he was gonna be Velvet Revolver's new singer that he thought those guys were the greatest of all time. And I'm pretty sure he would've bashed Axl left and right on every interview he'd have made. Baz is nothing but a brown noser. People always complain about Bullet for my valentine complaining about Axl or other opening acts. Well they aren't even close to being as annoying as Baz. Baz please just shut the fuck up my ears are hurting from hearing your annoying voice. There rant over. *lol*

You know what makes this funny? And maybe Backslash, Neemo or Bono will remember this or have heard about this. Back in 99, 2000 or 2001 can't remember the exact year. Baz did an interview with George Strombopopoulous or whatever is name in MuchMusic and when that George dude asked Baz a question relating to Skid Row being of the same style of music as Poison, Baz threw a tantrum saying Skid Row were good and Poison sucked, ended the interview and I think he even threatened the interviewer. Fast forward to 2008 and he is opening for that very same band that he said sucked and got mad cause someone thought they were like Skid Row and even went and called them the a big band. Way to go Baz. This guy will kiss up to just about anybody.

All right I have a question that to me was never clear since Slash left and Axl never cleared the air on this. Who is the official lead guitarist? Even when Buckethead was there it seemed that Finck did a lot of the lead. So is it Finck, Bumbleffot or Richard Fortus?

Gnfnraxl, name one official source who said Beta is the band's manager.:P
I"ll up you on this. Name me one official source for anything regarding GNR. So you got me there. There isn't one to m knowledge. But from the looks of it she is the band's manager. Is it by interim or permanently? Who knows. But I can't give you anything official cause nothing is official in GNR.

Oh, I understood. I just don't buy your shit.
While I do not agree with the way that MikkaMakka said this. I agree with him. Anyone who can't see how absurd it is to have a housekeeper as the manager of a world renowned band, clearly needs a good dose of reality check or a cup of coffee. I don't care if Beta is black, white, mexican, Chinese, american or whatever she is still a housekeeper. And I do not know her personally but I would still bet that she is not trained to be a manager of a band the stature of GNR. I am not aware of what is the degree of her education but again I'd be extremely surprised if she studied as a lawyer, accountant or anything business related at the University. Personally I have a Bachelor's degree in Social Work and some studies in Business management. I used to even own a record store. And if Axl would ask me to become the band's manager tomorrow, I'd refuse the job. If I only think of the money I'd make I'd take it with a huge smile. But I know I wouldn't be qualified to do a proper job managing a band of this stature. And again I really doubt Beta is qualified. And if she is then I'd like to be proven wrong. But let's be realistic. If she is qualified to be a manager of a band like GNR then she wouldn't have been a housekeeper up until not so long ago. Therefore this situation is beyond absurd. And this to me proves that Axl is not nearly as smart as some fans make him out to be.
#1317 Re: Guns N' Roses » Eddie Trunk on Chinese Democracy » 910 weeks ago
On the subject of wether or not CD will do big numbers. In my opinion there is a way for Axl and Uni to make money out of this baby. Only thing is that Axl will probably never do it. We've heard everybody's side of the story on old GNR and Slash even released a biography. If and that is a big IF, Axl really has 3 or 4 albums worth of material to release and plans on releasing it all this is what he needs to do in my opinion. People need an incentive to buy albums now adays. So give them what they want. When people buy the album they get a book where Axl rose tells all. Of course you charge more. In this book Axl tells all about the reason the old band imploded, why CD took this long to record, the riots in the UY tour, the cancelled shows in 02, Buckethead, Izzy returning from some shows in 06, his failed marriage, the leaks, his opinion on the forums, on why should people still consider this GNR, possibility of a reunion with the old band or making amends with them etc. He tells all. And if he really has 3 or four albums they could have this book done in 3 or four parts. Wanna read the rest of Axl's story? Buy the next album when it comes out on whatever date. Am I a 100% sure it would work? Nope but it is worth a try and it would be original. For buying Axl's biography you get his new album. Just an opinion.
#1318 Re: Guns N' Roses » Remember this document? » 913 weeks ago
To those who say that the 06 tour was a success I would just like to say that when I went to see Axl and friends in St-John. We bought the tickets 3 days before the show because they were having a hard time selling the tix and we got them at a buy one get one free deal. And we could've gotten floor tix. The arena was about half full. If that is a success well....
