I don't care how shit or naff they are considered Shake Head

all I know is that during my student days, after a night on the Frosty Jack, as the sun was rising, Appetite for Destruction would inevitably be dragged out by someone who would be much to cool to admit to liking it sober..and we would all get our second wind Thumbs Up

oh happy days of playing the "air settee" Laugh

Hmmmmmmmm shitty, cheesy, pants American rock-wank. Never my cup of tea, although everyone around me loved them, but each to their own innit, especially with music. Although I must admit, much like Def Leppard, their songs do bring back some good memories, even if I don't actually like them.

Oh OHG!!

I am buying a PS3 just so I can talk to you and pwn some merkin no0bs on the new Modern Warfare when it comes out. Laugh But I will still be playing on the PC as well Wink

B..bu...but you chose their worst song! Eeker

I'm sitting here listening to tunes, Mr L has a film on, I dunno what you're all on about.

But Bradders is an equally good guitarist as Slash (and NEVER gets recognised for it! Mad ) many people surpass Axl in lyrics...Axl can wail...but I suspect that it was tabloid stuff that made them. Though I confess, my feet are firmly in the "alt" camp.

Not dismissing GnR out-right...but I think there were much better bands at the time, doing much the same thing...but they didn't appeal to middle American kids...and possibly scared their parents because they weren't so relentlessly hetero.

GnR=Motley Crue with a slightly better musical ear and a smidge more brains...but Motley Crue are pure shit.

the BAND are decent enough guys but Axel Rose is a GIT,
he canceled a gig at maine road at the last minute in the 80s, THOUSANDS of fans came from all over the country for nothing, he said "its ok I will come back at the end of the tour keep your tickets",
NOT to mention WE had spent 2 weeks building a stage setting up the lighting sound system and set, plus preparing the arena for a gig,...and on a whim,..he calls it off,
it ALL gets pulled down again,
weeks later they come back as promised, it ALL has to get built again and made ready again fans come from all over the country again,(including my friend with his disabled son)
show day comes, the arena is packed with fans ALL cooking in the blazing sun,
while their are MAJOR ROWS going on backstage, MR Rose has decided he doesnt want to DO the gig afterall,
the band have been there hours, the punters are cooking in the heat, many needing medical attention, but still the wrangling goes on backstage, right up until the promoter tells Rose that if he DOESNT go on he is gonna go out n TELL the fans EXACTLY whats happening,
so he goes on, he does just over an hour DOESNT SAY A WORD to his loyal fans who have been waiting all day for him, walks off stage without even speaking to the rest of the band gets in his limo and leaves, now THAT is an asshole,

I saw fans burning their T shirts, Nod

I do agree that Axl Rose is a tit though and destroyed the band Thumbs Up


It's alright. He got his come-uppance in the vid for 'November Rain'. Looked like a petulant wee Jimmy Krankie stood, in his over-sized tux, next to his leggy model gf. Laugh

(love Slash's guitar riff in that song though...the damned thing almost talks).

Reminds me of a Fleetwood Mac gig from the very early 70's. I gave them the same sort of Goodbye. Alas! They had played a full gig.

Ah November Rain... utter cheesetastic genius.

Estranged is Slash at his best IMO.

And yes, I did like Guns N Roses, and yes, Axl is a prize wanker.

Which is why I've only listened to their latest album once, and shall be sticking to Velvet Revolver if they ever find a new singer now they've got rid of that drugged up idiot.
