Nice FA :thumb:

BludgeonySteve 01-20-2005 11:28 AM

Great band, great article. Nothing more to say than that.

Squirellmeister 01-20-2005 11:40 AM

I love G n R. I am waiting for CD but not holding my breath not too impressed by the new material to be honest. Also I noticed you suggest DOnt Cry(Original Lyrics) but I'd say the Alt lyrics are better, the recording was a bit worse but I felt the lyrics were so much better.

Woodstock 01-20-2005 12:23 PM

Spectacular FA, great job. I used to like this band, but I guess I've grown out of them.

Shazzam 01-20-2005 12:24 PM

RocketKev 01-20-2005 02:28 PM

Well done, that was an excellent article. That made my night. I hope we see daylight with "Chinese Democracy" soon and I will take your advice on Izzy Stradlin's solo work.

RoCKinG STANTON 01-20-2005 03:17 PM

This is the best thread about guns n' roses because it describes them. NOt how they compare to Velvet Revolver and all that, Just information about them. Had a Great time reading this thank you lol.

Some good Izzy songs are Somebody Knockin' and Shuffle It All.. For Slash's Snakepit, it's Beggars & Hangers-on and Dime Store Rock

Cipher Hour 01-20-2005 10:59 PM

Hey blue3, long time no see. What do you think of my FA?

blue3 01-20-2005 11:05 PM

It was great.. you know too much

Cipher Hour 01-20-2005 11:25 PM

I got my finger on the pulse man, that's all. Somebody has to keep the Guns fans informed and updated from time to time after all. Thanks for filling in those Izzy and Snakepit suggestions (which I was about to do before you posted).

As a side note, picking up 117° and the Ju Ju Hounds album are definitely good ideas for anybody interested in Izzy's work. Those albums are pure old-school rock masterpieces. His later albums are also good, but for people unfamiliar with his sound I'd start there.

i heart duff mckagen, didnt know he was a punk rocker, meh, who cares, anywho

Aw shucks, you people are too kind.

Oh and yeah, I was a little surprised too when I first found out that Duff used to be in a punk band. It's an interesting kind of background to come from considering he joined a band that is pretty far away from punk as far as I'm concerned.

well, slash learned how to really play guitar by a ramones album, plus i mean, look at them, they COULD be considered a stereotype punk band from the 80s, especailly in their early days

Not really, at least music wise. They certainly did look the part of your typical hair metal junkie though in the beginning (yikes!).

on 1 day release 01-21-2005 04:17 AM

gr8t thread on a legendary band. u guys must but the welcome to the vids DVD it has gr8t songs and of coures vids. november rain is my fav song.

def topin your rep up

dUSK 01-21-2005 04:53 AM

^ With punctuation like that I doubt your rep will be doing anything positive for long.

And speaking Duff being a punk rocker, those of you who have the Use Your Illusion Tour: Live from Tokyo DVD's, may I ask what did you think of Duff's song 'Attitude'?

munky_magik 01-21-2005 06:31 AM

I'm just checking that you do know that "Attitude" was orginally by The Misfits...right?
Personally I thought it was allright, Prefer The 'Fits version though :)

The Essential 01-21-2005 07:52 AM

excellent stuff!

ANewHope 01-21-2005 10:58 AM

Nice job bro. The original Guns N' Roses is my favorite band.

Yeah but its still nothing on most other Misfits songs.

I thought it was a great article, but there were a couple of errors (I think, I could be wrong.)

Axl demanded the rights to the name GnR on the eve of the Get in the Ring tour, threatening that he wouldn't play otherwise, and the other members reluctantly handed over, realising the amount of money that they would lose.

I believe (and I'm not as sure on this) that Guns didn't turn up to a few practices so they got their friend Slash to play guitar. Then Adler (who was in a band with Slash) joined shortly afterwards.

Either way it was a great article on one of the best bands ever IMO.
