I am not saying you must think Slash's solo is better but cool to see respect for his effort on them and his skills.
Of course.
Slash is one of the greatest guitarists of all time. I would never doubt his abilities.
#203 Re: Guns N' Roses » 20/4/16 FORO SOL, MEXICO CITY, MEXICO » 479 weeks ago
given current circumstances, I'm still happy!
Amen to that. No complaints.
#204 Re: Guns N' Roses » 20/4/16 FORO SOL, MEXICO CITY, MEXICO » 479 weeks ago
Because some have said they preferred Bucket and Finck solos, good to see Slash win them over on solos he didn't write but did do justice.
Well, I still prefer Robin's solo of This I Love but given time...

I love seeing you guys fully embrace Slash on TWAT and other CD songs... Makes my heart warm.
Why wouldn't we? It's fucking Slash, baby!
Just awesome.

Hillary is going to smash Trump. Praise be.
Even though I personally would have preferred Sanders it is what it is.
Too much, too soon.

I'm glad you're okay, James.
Stay safe.

Take a look at the above video. Axl Rose broke his foot recently and has been confined to a Dave Grohl-esque rock n' roll throne for live performances. So he's kind of just sitting there, wiggling around, kind of bouncing. It's awkward as hell. It's like watching someone's dad singing along to the classic rock radio station in the car. Axl's voice has been noticeably struggling in recent years, and he did his best last night, but it only makes things worse that he's sitting down and can't exactly project as he could standing. It's hard to watch, and it almost makes you wish he would have just had one of his classic Axl Rose stage meltdowns. But this Axl Rose today doesn't have any of that rockstar fire. No, the band started on time. He apologized from the stage about his foot: "Sorry, I can't do my thang." The Axl Rose your parents remember would have probably performed anyway and broken his other foot, or refused to play at all. Or played half a set, said fuck it, and ended the show early. He sure as hell wouldn't have apologized. How many millions did Guns N' Roses make for this show? How much more will they make in the subsequent tour? And this is what we get? Is this how we're supposed to remember Guns N' Roses now? This is sad.
What a bunch of hogwash. Seriously.
People get paid to write stuff like this?
Better not start on time, Axl! Better not treat the audience with common courtesy, Axl!
Better have a meltdown, Axl! Better start a riot, Axl!
Fuck off.

I saw them last year while opening for the Foo Fighters (coincidentally the show were Dave Grohl broke his leg while falling off the stage) and was completely blown away... Shocked even.
All I knew was that they were called Ghost and what Papa Emeritus looked like - never in a million years would I have guessed that they were going to be so damn good.
Been on a lovely path of discovery ever since. Definitely the greatest band to come out of the 21st century.
Have a good time!
#210 Re: Guns N' Roses » For the tour - Rules SG would have in place » 479 weeks ago
Look...
Axl, Slash and Duff have not played together for over 20 years time.
Taking that into consideration by also adding in three others which have NEVER played together and it will take some time to get the right chemistry going.
What I am trying to state here is that, to put emphasis on the fact that there is bound to be some jittering involved, making mistakes can and will happen.
Nerves. Maybe that is all there is to it.
