this band makes no fucking sense. ZERO promotion, ZERO communication, only fucking up with the fans by making quasi-supersecret hints that turn out to be nothing at all. people will hear music this year, that's for sure, but probably by all other bands except for GNR.

so all that rumors were just about a cover band (or a tribute band? what's the difference anyway...). fair enough.

yes, I do want him to bring pizza onstage and STFU (that's the hardest thing for him, I guess). to fuck up the whole thing by letting him sit behind the drumkit - hell no, of course! he might do well with a tambourine or something like that, with a disconnected mike of course.

if you mean that Minneapolis announcement, it turned out to be Metallica with A7X.

he might start releasing songs off various ChiDem sessions and actually start making money on all that - there are supposed to be tons of recordings. no need to earn billions, just a more "anthology" approach - I'm sure those would be a nice profit for him.
but suddenly I woke up, realizing all this is about two words - AXL and RELEASE in one sentence, and that's probably the single most unrealistic thing ever.
