Speaking of Covers, Axl and Slash could do a great job on the Christmas Carol "What Child is This".
Halford did a version but I think Slash and Axl could do it even better.
FUCK NO!
Christmas music is the most jumping the shark a band can do.
Like do I think Guns N' Roses will conquer the music world again? Likely not. But, releasing an X-Mas song is sooooooooooooooooo fucking lame.

But yeah safe to say Mr. Rose ain't a fan of Trump: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmsFhiSNSqc

I don't think Paul "Huge" Tobias was that foreign to the members of Guns N' Roses after all he and Axl co-wrote Back off Bitch and clearly they must have hanged out during Guns big run.

It has nothing to do with money regarding Sorum.
I think he just has a piss poor attitude.
Axl, Slash, and Duff rather not deal with it.

Remind me when the scene happens in the movie.
#217 Re: Guns N' Roses » Izzy tweet about Axl and Duff interview » 459 weeks ago
I'm not trying to shit on Izzy cause I dig the guy.
But, he has done nothing relevant after his Ju Ju Hounds stuff.
He hasn't kept the brand name alive like Slash, Axl or Duff. They've been far more successful.
It isn't hard to see why those three get more money.
Izzy hasn't toured, hasn't been fighting in the trenches and what not.
So it is pure fandom to think he would get an equal cut.
All he had to do was show up, and take the rhythm slot from Richard.
Prove that he can last a tour and not flake. But, he decided not to because it wasn't worth the dough.
Well boo fucking who.
You don't get a raise if you don't show up for work. And Izzy hasn't proven he can tour.
So enough shitting on Axl, Duff and Slash it is so lame.

You guys act like the sun shines out of Richard Fortus's big nose.
Fucks sake. It's Izzy fuckin Stralin you're talking about here. You don't talk that way about Keef or George Harrison do you?!
He isn't Keith Richards or George Harrison.
He quit the band years ago and has never done a successful tour since then.
Why the fuck would you pay him a shit ton of money to maybe show up?
And no one is kissing Richard Fortus' ass. The fact is Fortus, is reliable. He gets the job fucking done. Light years ahead guitar wise too. Maybe not songwriting.
Izzy is a flaky. Great songwriter. But, fucking flaky.
So let's lay off the Richard Fortus attacks.
Dude is also stand up, too.
#219 Re: Guns N' Roses » Izzy tweet about Axl and Duff interview » 459 weeks ago
Again love Izzy and I've defended him previously
But, dude is wrong here.
Like some of you said his bargaining power is diminishing.
I don't think airing your dirty laundry does you any favours as well with Axl, Duff, and Slash.
What would have happened if Izzy came back, is the 3 ADS would have to keep Richard on in case Izzy proves to be unreliable.
He should have taken what was offered regardless if it was seen as a slap in the face. Prove that he is worth the equal amount, by finishing the tour and what not.
But, by staying at home and complaining that you didn't get your fair share is such bullshit. Slash, Duff, and Axl do not look bad at all here.
Slash, Duff and Axl all have proven touring experience. Izzy doesn't. That is a fact. They've kept the brand name alive for the last twenty years.
Izzy is kind of being the Don Felder in this situation. Overestimating his value and wanting more money.
What has he done? Solo albums ok. But, no touring. No big name recognition. Slash & Duff have done Velvet Revolver, solo shit, and Axl rebuilt a band and well yeah it disintegrated. But all three have been around on the scene. The same again, can't be said about Iz.
By shitting on Axl, Slash, and Duff he doesn't do himself any favours. Unless this is a ruse. And he is going to show up.
#220 Re: Guns N' Roses » Izzy tweet about Axl and Duff interview » 459 weeks ago
Look 
and 
were very respectful to Izzy.
More so Axl as it is kind of more of his place as band leader and childhood friend of Izzy.
I love Izzy. I think he is the best. He beats to his own drum.
But, like if you don't show up and have a track record of being reliable and able to finish a tour. You don't get paid. You can't just have your AWOL night and expect the band to be fine without a rhythm guitarist. Also, they wouldn't pay him their share if they had Izzy around and had Richard as an insurance policy. Therefore, carrying 3 guitarists.
I don't think Slash, Duff or Axl, look bad here.
