#6681 Re: Guns N' Roses » Bumble playing with a (tribute) GNR » 874 weeks ago
maybe he was just supporting some avid GNR fans, and what an asshole he is, he shouldn't be immersing himself in the fan community, he should be shunning us and referring to us as the enemy like the rest of the GNR camp, this guy is clearly a selfish pig if you ask me.
Valid points if you ask me. Axl gets bashed for being a recluse. Ron gets bashed for playing for Guns fans. Not sure what's right and what's wrong at this point.
#6682 Re: Guns N' Roses » Rankings/comments on all the new songs » 874 weeks ago
1. TWAT
2. IRS
3. The Blues
4. Chinese Democracy
5. Shackler's Revenge
6. If The World
7. Better
8. Catcher In The Rye
9. Song 2
10. Rhiad and the Bedouins
11. Madagascar
I've like IRS since it first came out even though the majority of people seem to dislike it for whatever reason. On the same note, everyone seems to love Better and while I think it's good I don't get why it's such a favorite. Pardon the pun but there was a time I liked Maddy more but it's worn down a bit over the years. I didn't bother putting Silkworms on the list but if I did I'd put it at #60, figuring they have 60 songs (4 albums worth). Maybe a studio version would do something for me, but I kinda doubt it.
As for old songs, Rocket Queen, Breakdown, Dead Horse to name a couple. Obviously the regulars as well. Really the only GNR songs I don't care for are Silkworms and My World, and they're not BAD.

haha....well at least the movie was decent
Yeah the movie was quite gripping, that's for sure. Although it took place in a desert I think, and that doesn't quite add up.
#6685 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chinese Democracy dreams (and nightmares) » 874 weeks ago
I had a dream last night that I went to see Body of Lies. I sat through the whole thing, I guess I got so wrapped up in the movie that I completely forgot that "If The World" was gonna be played at the end. So my sole purpose for going to see the movie was ruined. I walked out of the theatre and then I remembered, too late. Needless to say, I was not happy.
#6686 Re: The Garden » 2008 NFL season » 874 weeks ago
Wow, what a stop by the Bears defense. It was very close. I was surprised that Reid didnt challenge that 4th down.
I'm surprised they ran the ball there. Reid loves to throw. What happened? Maybe he out-thought himself. Put the ball in D-Mac's hands, he's your best player by far, especially without Brian Westbrook playing.

No problem faldor...this is a simple answer actually. When you say something is going to happen (an opinion) and that's what happens, that makes you right. So yes, an opinion can be right, as mine usually are. Some of mine haven't yet had the opportunity to be right, so those are neither right or wrong. I imagine a couple times I've even been wrong (though I don't recall any specific examples) and in those cases, you are correct, I was not right. Does that help?
That's fine, I was just unaware of any specific examples. But I don't need any, I'll take your word for it.
No offense to you but I hope you're WRONG with your current opinions or prognostications.

The spansih soloing in DTJ is far superior to the same in IF THE WORLD and Buckethead couldn't wear slash's jock strap. oh yeah, vr's music is far more diverse and dramatic than chinese democracy. i just didn't want to admit it to myself before.
Please provide the quotes for this.
You want to know why I got banned asshat? It's because I'm not afraid to stand up for what I believe no matter who it's against. I got banned for being right and not being willing to let it go. I got banned for demanding an apology that I knew I would never get. That is well worth a banning. I have taken on much better than you, so either bring your "A game" or walk away.
So if you and russ want to double team me all day and give each other karma for doing it, that's fine with me. Pat yourselves on the back. I don't seek or need approval from others.
Go back and look at my posting history. I get attacked over and over for being "negative" yet time after time, I'm right. Interesting.

That is fucking lame,Baz recording a country album,what's the deal with has-beens going country these days?Baz only does those "reality"shows just for the money.
Obviously. I think Baz would be the first one to admit he does them for money. Who knows, maybe he'd be successful with a country album. Jessica Simpson pretty much sucked as a pop artist, but since she's gone country she's been a big hit with the country folk. Sad to say because I really liked the album but a Baz country album would probably sell better than Angel Down.

Please no. Don't even joke about that. Though I must admit, "Don't Drop That Dime" was one of my favorites off of Libertad. If that means anything.
