#321 Re: Guns N' Roses » Looks like rehearsals have started! » 493 weeks ago

I'm not trying to be a bitch here or a Axl lover.

As I was a huge fan of the Buckethead and Robin Finck era. It hurt when those fucks left. And they replaced Finck with that mother fucking cunt DJ Ashba. I hated that guy huge.

Anyhow, long story short. I will take Axl Rose on a bad day over shit like Myles Kennedy. I saw some videos of him singing GN'R tracks and it is painful.

No emotion, no feel and the lack of intensity.

Even when Mr. Rose phones it in, he's still the only one that I think can sing Guns songs.

The energy too.

Iggy Pop is the only rock star that comes close to the magic I saw in 2002 and 2006.

Again just some guy's opinion.

But wow I hope during the reunion there is no special guest of Myles Kennedy. Cause' I almost hate that guy as much as Ashba, almost.

This is pretty incredible. Slash show in India within the last week. Crowd sings the song loudly and they even hum Slash's "slow solo" during the earlier part of the song.

That's one way to cover up a bad vocalist (though Myles is actually very good on Sweet Child compared to other GN'R songs).

Sorry that is fucking lame.

I never want to go to a Guns show were the fans hum any shit.

Also, Myles Kennedy fucking blows worse than a hurricane.

I hate that cunt. His singing sucks.

I rather take Axl Rose on a bad day than here any fuck attempt to sing Guns N' Roses songs.

I hope no full on reunion happens. Bring back Finck or Bucket. Add Duff and bring out CD2 if Tommy has quit and been a bitch.

#323 Re: Guns N' Roses » As the reunion rumors are on a treadmill... » 508 weeks ago

I don't mean to be an asshole here, but who gives a shit about Steven Adler? Honestly? How many song-writing credits does he have? Is he a cornerstone of the band?

Well he lacks any substantial credits, and clearly was replaceable with Matt Sorum. To conclude, the guy doesn't matter.

If a reunion were to happen, he would be a huge liability.

The guy is stuck in the past.

When I think of key Guns members from the past I think of: Axl (1 in songwriting credits), Izzy (number 2 in credits), Slash, and then Duff.

I never am like, who Steven Adler, that guy rocks Guns' needs him.

The drumming position is very replaceable.

I am personally hoping, the Rose just gets back with Finck and Buckethead. Dream a little dream here.

#324 Re: Guns N' Roses » Question to fans of 01-02 lineup... » 513 weeks ago

I saw Guns in 2002 in Toronto at the ACC and 06 in NYC.

Bucket was the highlight. Axl sure wasn't that stylish, but, he sounded great. Watching him run around was amazing.

Then Buckethead left and it felt different, maybe, he'd come back. It didn't happen. Robin was still there it felt all right. Once he left, I threw in the towel.

Either reunite or get Buckethead and the Finck Tank back. No half-measure Axl.

Time is wasting.

Likely won't be able to do what you could have done in 2002. I'd respect the band more if he brought back Bucket and Finck. And finish what he was going to do with an incredibly talented line up.

It seems highly unlikely. As the past is a great indication.

Axl Rose reminds me of a Brian Wilson figure. Extremely talented, but self-doubt and depression have derailed the guy.

Maybe it is a good time to call Buckethead up, after all dude has been through a lot.

Hard Times should be a the follow up's name. A nod to the great Charles Dickens book and the amount of time and effort spent on the album.

#325 Re: Guns N' Roses » DJ has left GNR » 516 weeks ago

Wow is it Christmas in August?

I hated this cunt "DJ Ashba" from day one. I thought who is this fucking poser? With shitty tattoos and a weird top hat? Oh it is some fuck I give two shits about because Robin Finck wasn't in the band any longer.

The dude seemed to want to be in the band for his own personal gain.

Also, it was like what the fuck? I thought you were going in a more industrial / grunge / queen / avant-garde type of rock Axl? Why the fuck would you hire a guy who plays in Nikki Sixx's shitty Motley Crue wannabe rock band?

So good riddance to this fuck.

I seriously hated him from day one, and the band turned me off big time when this guy joined.

I hope for a Robin return, with Buckethead and if not count me in on this whole reunion talk.

As you either get your core guitarists back from your era Axl or just stop. As their is no need for anymore new assholes.

Bring back fucking Robin. It is the right call and yeah some people don't like him. Well his finger prints are all on Chinese Democracy and everything since 1998 that we haven't heard.

To conclude, Fuck you Ashba.

And mods sorry if was using offensive speech, but I really hated fucking Ashba in this band.

Bring back Robin, Axl. I'm rooting for you again. Maybe a touch of Buckethead and you can never go wrong with a Slash.

For the record I saw the band in 2002 with the almost classic Chinese lineup (no Tobias) and in New York in 2006 with Izzy Stradlin's guest appearance since leaving the band.

#326 Re: The Sunset Strip » What Are You Listening To? » 532 weeks ago

Sharon Van Etten. I've been loving her stuff. The album: Tramp is phenomenal if it is your cup of tea.

Also, I've been loving the Smashing Pumpkins single: Drum + Fife.

#327 Re: Guns N' Roses » Ron stirs tempest in a teapot » 532 weeks ago

Buckethead coming back would be the best option for the band.

It would feel that music was moving forward and not backwards.

Hell even Robin Finck coming back would be great.

I hate Ashba. Ron is a nice bland guy.

What got me excited about the band was Buckethead and Finck. I stopped following when Finck left again, as what was the point?

Ashba just comes off as a shitty hair metal fuck.

The whole point of post Illusions to me, was that Axl was going to make: industrial, grunge with Queen overtures kind of rock. He wasn't going to stay in the formula of bluesy dirty rock that defined them.

So when Ashba comes in. I'm like what the fuck dude?

If one of the two Chinese Democracy guitarists come back I am back.

Other than that, I have no interest in some asshole trying to be Slash with a shit load of tattoos and a crappy rip off top hat. Hot Topic called they want your shitty look back bro.

Back on topic, Ron sounds like a son of a bitch in the interview.

In this article it states:

The lineup also includes Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Cold War Kids and members of the Strokes, the Cult, Weezer, Velvet Revolver, Guster and others. Harrison's son, Dhani, is set to perform, and the event organizers are promising surprise guests.

Who is going to be fronting Velvet Revolver?

#329 Re: Guns N' Roses » Ron Visiting Israel For Benefit Show » 569 weeks ago

I always laugh when people bitch about Israel. Yes NALTAV that's ISRAEL not ISREAL.

Especially when they call it: the occupied territories. Guess what? Israel won a bunch of wars, and when you win you get to keep the land. Or you give it back eventually.

When you have Westerners in places like Canada, the United States, and they bitch about Israel. I wonder when they're going to give their land back to the Native Americans. Or when Hawaii is going to be set free. Because we're going down that occupied road right, everything should be fair game if you don't believe Israel has the right to exist.

The fact of the matter is the jewish people have been their for thousands of years and are one of the most persecuted groups in the world.

When Hamas, recognizes Israel maybe there will finally be peace in the Middle East. Now I am not saying killing innocent civilians is ok. But, launching rockets into a country isn't either and Israel is defending itself.

I can go down the list of countries that should give back their land, how about Turkey you know give back Cyprus they invaded to the Greeks. Then Turkey should give back the Holy Roman Empire back too. The United Kingdom better let the Irish have Northern Ireland back.

War isn't good.

Props for Ron playing this benefit show.

The question you have to ask yourself is, how many years does it become acceptable to have a piece of land before you know people forget about it?

As I can point out countless countries that should give back their occupied territories. Oh I forgot Italy, hey give back Rome to the Vatican, too.

When people recognize that Israel has a right to exist then peace can happen.

#330 Re: Guns N' Roses » Opinion Piece: Why Izzy Stradlin Was the Heart of Guns N' Roses » 577 weeks ago

Look Axl and Izzy go back way before the other guys in Guns N' Roses, so I think there is a certain loyalty there.

When Axl wasn't going to do the Hall of Fame, by Izzy not doing it as well, it made Axl look like less of an asshole, even though the whole Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame is a pile of bullshit.
