What a clusterfuck. 14 years since the last GNR release, all the band has to show for it is comments about Slash. Yay us. This obsession with Slash that the GNR camp has really needs to stop. They need therapy, and not the kind Beta can provide. Do they realize that every person who used to be in the band has moved on? Dear Lord.
Her comments about Slash wanting to rejoin are ludicrous. Why join something that does nothing? Especially when you are already in a successful band.
Axl is too involved in the online world. I have said for years that he practically lives at these sites, and as more info keeps coming out, looks like I was right. He needs to step away from the internet and realize that the whole world isn't obsessing over him or his hatred for Slash.
Fans are the enemy? The remaining GNR fans left are the ones who prop these AFD tours up.
The fans need to get a life? Then admit you cant move on and are still too obsessed with Slash to ever do anything, and your fans will move on and "get a life".
GNR has to get over its obsession with Slash or this band will never do anything more than AFD tours. Period.
A reunion will never happen. Its obvious now. Slash will never do it. Who wants to walk into a situation where someone is completely obsessed with you, and the obsessor has a few hangers on who are paid to talk shit about you? If Slash has any integrity, he'll refuse when Axl's bank account shrinks some more and he wants to cash one final huge paycheck.
Like Slash said a couple months ago: "The past is the past and I am interested in whats going on now".
Too bad Axl cant have a similar philosophy.

Anyone seen this film? Its a masterpiece. I hated for it to end. I was in a trance. This film is about female sexual rage and how these women inflict violence because of their utter contempt towards society. This film is not hollywood fluff.
Its about a prostitute and some loser chick who lead terrible lives. After both commit a crime(and one is raped), they have a chance encounter. This leads to a quick friendship, and they go on an adventure filled with sex and violence. Its what Thelma and Louise would've been if Hollywood had any balls. This film is pretty much from a female perspective. These two have zero care for life. The interesting thing is, you feel sorry for them even though they are killing innocent people. The actress who plays Manu is very attractive. Sort of a plain Jane arab chick, but is definitely smoking. Just added her other movie to the top of my netflix queue. She is an ex porn star in France, although I am not a porn freak so probably wont ever see her other work.
This film is a semi pornographic film, so its definitely not for prudes. The sex is real, and there are closeup shots of blowjobs, fucking, a cumshot on Manu's ass, etc.
This film is supposedly one of the most controversial films this decade. I can see why.
Great film. I highly recommend it(if you're over 18).

There are several Asian films that were far superior to Saw... A pity people don't like subtitles.
Thats why I said "american".
Believe me, I know that foreign films are light years ahead of american garbage. I just got through watching Baise Moi. Hollywood would never have the balls to do a film like that.

The Bears have to go on a run right now if they want to contend. They need a 5 or 6 game winning streak going into the playoffs. They're gonna need at least one playoff home game as well.
#17876 Re: Guns N' Roses » Marc Canter on Fuse - The Sauce » 922 weeks ago
No, I didn't miss the point. You have always been in the "legal obstacles preventing the release" camp, and those opinions are valid. I agree to a certain extent. An album cant be released if there's some sort of red tape preventing it.
Where we disagree is regarding how simple it is to record this album. All it takes is one member leaving to cause a delay that would last years, and there are plenty of examples of this. Comparing Dark Side of the Moon's recording process to CD is a joke.
Your earlier post about Radiohead was a good point. That could have huge implications for the industry as a whole. So could Madonna's recent contract with Livenation.

She sounds like an airhead crack whore. When women suck on the glass dick for too long, their brains turn to mush.

I agree. Losing Merck was a bad thing, which is funny because everyone hated him when he was involved. Yeah, he was lame how he talked to fans, but at times like this when there's a chance for forward progress, his services could have come in handy.
#17879 Re: Guns N' Roses » Marc Canter on Fuse - The Sauce » 922 weeks ago
James, come on...your focusing on the wrong thing...Bumble said and the band said the recording is done...end of discussion. The big problem is negotiating with the label. With all the money invested by the record company and then all the costs of recording done after the label cut off funds (costs paid by the artist), ten years of shit is not going to be settled because Axl has an album.Merck told you negotiations had to take place, Axl said it, this guy says it, no manager since Merck left, common sense says it is a fucking business clusterfuck. What is Axl going to do with the "extra songs", who owns them if Axl only owes Uni one album? Both parties have paid for the recordings-who owns them?????? If I 'm Axl, I 'm saying you have your one album of 12 songs and I get the rest....Uni probably says they are all theirs. No manager to help negotiate. Who is going to pay for promotion? Maybe both parties want a new contract....maybe Axl wants all the music and wants to walk away free of the label.....endless possibilities and ALOT of money at stake...throw in Radiohead's bold move and things get even more interesting..recording guitar parts that may only take a week to do is chicken shit compared to the business side of things.:haha:
thanks Pasnow and Double
I'm not doubting there are legal obstacles to overcome. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if the rights for the quotes used in Madagascar have not been obtained yet.
However, throwing in musician of the week to add to the record doesn't help things either. It just complicates things even more. How many hands do you want in the cookie jar? Especially when those hands are bound to leave at any time. You claim adding musicians is "chickenshit", well it sure took alot of time to get that last chickenshit incident under control. Almost 3 years. Big difference between a week and three years. Then you have the recent "chickenshit" episode with Brain.
What happens if Bumblefoot decided to leave? Frank? Stinson? Are you telling me it would only take a week to sort out that problem?:haha:
My point is GNR in the Chinese Democracy era has never been able to solidify itself as a real band. I'm not talking about the "this isn't GNR" crap, I am talking about the band being its own entity long enough to be able to sustain itself as a recording and touring band. The closest we ever got was 2001, and we know how that turned out. Sure, things look "safe" at the moment, but the current lineup has been together for a year. The Buckethead-Huge era was a unit for several years and things were looking good then as well. Remember the tentative June 2001 release mention not just from Axl, but from Beta? Recording was done then as well.
No offense, but someone saying recording is done in 2007 doesn't hold as much weight as people want it to. It was done in 2001, 2002, 2004, and now 2007.
If there is any hope of this album ever surfacing, the games, delays, excuses, finger pointing,etc. have to stop and Axl buckle down with his current lineup and get this thing launched. If it means removing Buckethead, Huge, and any other former members from the equation, then so be it.
Just get it done. The past two years the GNR camp has talked more about VR and ex members than they have their own project. That line of thinking needs to stop. Like all the hardcore supporters say, "the past is the past. move on". We already know Slash is gone and they hate VR. I don't need Beta or Del James reminding me every few months.
#17880 Re: Guns N' Roses » Marc Canter on Fuse - The Sauce » 922 weeks ago
If there is a finished album in the vaults, it needs to be released. Fuck this adding people shit. What happens if someone else leaves before its released? New people have to be added. If Axl keeps waiting on having a stable band for years on end, this wait is gonna go on forever.
I have nothing against BBF being on the album in some capacity, but at some point someone has to say enough is enough.
