And I also believe he would have been given a clear direction by Axl
Axl has a direction?:haha:
But yeah if anything is going to happen it's whatever task Axl has asked Azoff to do. And Azoff will definetly get it done.

So let me get this right the GN'R fan community is anticipating a video game conference to get GN'R news?

Maddy. It's got to go.
#2854 Re: Guns N' Roses » What if the leaks (all of them) never happened? » 887 weeks ago
But I bet the leaks helped build some hype for that tour. It's what made it look different from 01/02. That there was some music in some form to go with it.
#2855 Re: Guns N' Roses » What if the leaks (all of them) never happened? » 887 weeks ago
I have to say I agree that the leaks have saved certain forums from going under and kept interest peaked with some that would have possibly left and lost interest a long time ago.
But I what I will say on the flip side is that even if we didn't get any leaks at all, we'd still have the live performances as a chance to hear some of the new stuff which was the case with Blues, Maddy, Rhyiad and CD. Possibly in 2006 had we not heard IRS, Better and Twat [which was played at Hammerstein] we would have heard them if they planned on playing them regardless.
Who knows if anything would have happened in 2006? I mean the only reason there was some interest in that tour is because of the leaks.

Never noticed that, my mistake 
Anyways it felt like a bit of a seperate matter from the collection of articles cause it basically means Axl is the FBI.
#2857 Re: Guns N' Roses » Overall feelings on the CD era songs.... » 887 weeks ago
Maybe I'm having a bad week or something, but it's like I have nowhere to go to talk about these songs. Every thread has this attitude that if you like it, you're an inferior music fan or something. Or, people crying for Slash.
And when I typed "move on" I didn't mean it in the literal sense. I'm not one of those people that's gonna tell you you can't post here because you don't like something. I'm just finding it hard for myself to find a place to post my thoughts without having to constantly defend myself. It's seems to be a solo fight, too. Where are the people who like this stuff? Where are ya? Speak up.
Of course, I don't want everyone here to just nod their head and drink the cool aid. We're not a cult. We're fans.
I like all of them. I just don't post as much as others
#2858 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chinese Democracy Elimination- Round 1 » 887 weeks ago
I.R.S, is the worst of the lot. Also the vocals on all these tracks suck compared to the previous leaks. There is less rasp in all of them, especially I.R.S

Guns n' Roses' 'Chinese Democracy' Leaker Gets FBI Visit
6/24/08, 5:45 pm EST
Last week, the Internet was rocked when California blogger Kevin Skwerl posted nine newly leaked Chinese Democracy tracks, including three previously unheard songs allegedly from Guns n' Roses long-awaited album. Skwerl '” who used to work in the distribution department of Universal Music and is now a Web designer '” runs the blog Antiquiet, and says he received the tracks from 'an anonymous online source.'
Yesterday Skwerl was surprised to find himself face to face with two FBI agents who paid a visit to his day job. 'It was kind of an ambush,' Skwerl tells Rolling Stone. 'When I came back from lunch they were waiting in the lobby for me. It's a little creepy they know where I work.' Two young FBI officers, who Skwerl describes as 'Mulder and Scully types,' questioned him for 15 minutes about where he got the tracks and made plans to visit his house at 7:00 a.m. this morning.
'I wasn't sure if they were going to come by with a warrant and trash the place, like in the movies,' he says. 'It was nothing like that.' The FBI officials wanted to see the original files, but Skwerl erased them last week per instructions from Axl Rose's attorneys. Skwerl ultimately gave them second-hand files that are now widely available on the Internet.
Last week Skwerl's blog crashed from the traffic flood that resulted from his controversial posting. 'My host contacts me and says, '˜What the fuck did you do?'' I go, 'Uhhhh. I posted some music.' He goes, 'What exactly did you post?' I go, 'Uhhhh. [Meek voice] New Guns n' Roses.' He goes, 'Motherfucker.' Before long his cell phone rang with an unfamiliar 323 number. 'It was a really cool guy from the Gn'R camp that was a middle man between someone who was very angry and me. He was trying to reach out and see if I'd go without a fight, which is more or less what I did.'
Skwerl agreed to take them down, but a cease-and-desist letter soon followed threatening possible legal action. 'I'm not so worried about that,' Skwerl says. 'It's a legal grey area since it wasn't for download, it wasn't a finished product. We aren't sure who owns the recordings. I feel like I might survive this.'
Update: Skwerl wants to make it clear that he's unsure whether or not he broke the law, but he will cooperate with the feds in any way he can. 'If legal proceedings come my way, I'll face them 100 percent. I'm not afraid of that. I did what I did, and I'll face the music if I have to.'
