Here Today... Gone To Hell!

German TV channel WDR will air VR's performance from the Rock Am Ring festival (June 5th) on Sunday night (technically early Monday morning). The performance will be shown on the Rockpalast program, which starts 5 minutes before 1 am. The special will first air Garbage's performance from the same festival.

weiland looks gay. for real. is he trying to pull off that 80's look, 20 years later? or is he trying to be axl? at least axl succeeded in both. weiland is pathetic and VR is garbage in my opinion. but hey, that's just me. at least they can play the avarage boring rock which seems to be the trend and make some money, right?

another wieland looks gay how original or he's trying to be axl.. original

i wasn't trying to be original, i was stating my opinion.
here's a tip though:
don't take other people's opinons, unless they are about you, personally.
especially on a message board.

the point of this was to tell anyone from germany about the performance not to come in and say weiland is gay or the 80's or the trying to be axl comment.. It's just pointless because the thread shifts away from what it was intended for..

fair enough, i just thought that since this was the VR forum, stating your opinion on VR was a fair thing to do.
but hey, arguing over the internet is like being in the special olympics. even if you win you're still retarded. :peace:

of course man but at least if you said something about the show good or bad then it would help the cause.. I have that special olympics pic in 'my pics" :hihi:

lol yea it's so describing isn't it.
anyway i'll find a more spesific thread to blow off the steam in next time. peace man

I don't know what's more gay, wearing what's trendy again from GNR's hey-day's or bitching about what some other dude wears.....aren't those guys who give comments on other people's clothing in those gossip magazine's straight, married and have kids????




Nah.....

i'm sorry but in that first pic he just looks like a nazi fag.

What was the point in looking here if you dont like VR. Just a VR basher.

Being a gnr fan you shouldn't jump on someone's clothing style when axl wore many gay things and was even using cigarets holders like a 1950's actress.. Tighty whities, fur, mesh jerseys etc, but since I love gnr I give him a pass because he is being himself

How would you know what a 'nazi fag' looks like?

Takes one to know one... :hihi:

hardi-harr-harr.

i just gave my 2 cents on the guy. and axl had the persona, and the timing, to pull that off.
weiland is trying to hard to be a rock star like axl, the new axl (he should've stuck with what he was like in STP), when in reality he is just a bleek little copy who likes to brag about his drug abuse like a loser, and gets all fired up everytime someone criticizes him, like in the press. weiland should've played in motley crue 20 years ago. then his actions might have been considered cool. now he just seems out of place and makes VR look like they're trying to be what guns n' roses was 15 years ago, talking about drug habits in the media and doing the whole 80's style thing over again. they should just move on like axl has. there's nothing more sad than a rock and roll band stuck in the 80's, that's why axl moved on from slash.

VR isn't normal average boring rock.  It's far from what you'd call 80's rock... far far from it.

But your opinion is noted.  if not considered.

why is scott pretending to be like axl.. Why does he have to be put in the trying to be like axl category?? he was quite good with stp and sold many many millions of albums.. The hat is pooor taste because of what it's symbolizes but otherwise he does his own thing, he always dyed his hair, always kept it very short always used a megaphone..
Why does his actions of getting pissed a the press only acceptable during the 80's..


stop and stop, they are hardly stuck in the 80's.. I've seen them multiple times live and they are nothing 80's...

was NR 70's because of dream on, was it 80's because of motley crue home sweet home, is the blues all of the above and the 90's or elton john because it's piano?? They're just being who they are,cslash is the same as he's always been.. That's better then trying to be some gangsta rapper with braides and baggy pants who has jerseys for every team

I didn't even want to bring axl into this but it's like how can you bash someone else's clothes when you support axl rose.. That's like sliptnot fans saying KISS looks gay

Looks like the thread didn't stay on topic, Mike..  Isn't it always the way ;)

 I am throwing in my 2 cents... I hate Scott being compared to Axl, he is nothing like Axl nor will he ever be.   Scott has his OWN style and his OWN attitude towards, music, press, whatever.  Comparing Scott is nothing but whining about somebody other than Axl fronting Slash, Duff and Matt.   There should be no reason to even bring up, Scott and Axl in the same sentence when talking about VR.

bottom line is scott will never be axl. he can try all he wants, no one can ever touch axl.

No, that's not the bottom line...

the bottom line is that if any of you fuckers think Scott has even LOOKED at Axl, you're deluded.  I'm 100% sure he doesn't give a fuck about Axl Rose.  And the time he took the piss of Axl on stage?  That was the 'classic' Axl Rose look that everyone knew.  Eminem did similar.  You don't need to look at concerts of Axl to remember that look.  The look that Scott is using at the mo is unlikely to be a reference to Axl.  You honestly think he wants anyone saying he copies a guy that he has fuck all to do with?

It's you lot that analyse Axl and Scott together.  Not Axl and not Scott.  You lot need to get lives instead of doing that all the time.

There... that's the bottom line...

 He is NOT trying to be Axl...

That's the point.. he is a success on his own.. A lot of people have this idea that they just found the guy somewhere and tried to make him a star or soemthing.. The man had big place during the grunge movement, he's a grammy winner prior to this group. We shouldn't hate on those we don't know.. There is a world beyond axl rose so just let the man be,, he is the same that he has always been... A lot of you never even say soemthing constructive like heyI didn't like CB but maybe their second effort as a group will be better, or they did this first album rather fast... I don't like eevry new gnr song but I am dying to hear cd..

I hope one german person at least saw this.. :'(

At this point VR haters, its not even funny to discuss how far Axl has fallen in style, looks, taste, vocals and reliability since 1993.
Scott Weiland today is a better frontman for Slash than Axl is.

If you don't like his style fine, but don't say that its better than Axl's when Axl doesn't even show up anymore for anything GNR-related. BTW, Scott is an energetic, loud, stylin', rambunctious rock star, and he's sober with a hot wife, which is more than Axl has.

Axl has nothing left except for the few thousand dillusional fans who interpret Madagascar all day. Go to fuckin movies if you want to see Madagascar, go to Africa in the Indian Ocean to see Madagascar. You're never gonna see it on a nu-GNR album because its never coming out.

There I said it. Rock ON WEILAND!!!

MNR

Damn, Mark n Roses dropped the focking hammer.  I like that Mark.  Good call.  To me, VR is my favorite current band out there.  I think they really appreciate their fans as well.  Everyone here is obviously a GNR fan, or they would have never come to the site.  I did have a focked up dream that Axl and Slash got back together.  That will happen within the next 4 years.  Until then, ROCK ON VR!!!!

august 15th - Axl has NOT moved on.  Sorry.  He's still living in the GnR past, and doing nothing with it.  The other guys from Guns (other than Steven) HAVE chosen to move on and do something different with their lives.  All the more power to them.  How can you even compare Scott to Axl?  That's ridiculous.  This is a new era and a new band that has nothing to do with Axl Rose.  So, get over it.  And, further, I resent the word "fag".  What era are YOU from?     

Also, to marknoroses and to mike giuliana - very well said! 

fine,  no matter how much you want him to, Scott does not want to be Axl. Scott is Scott, if you had seen STP you'd know that.
good, is that out of the way now? can you piss off, or write about something else?

will someone be putting this show up for downloading?
would love to see it! :peace:

Can you be a bigger loser? go look watch the Cartoon Network you little child.

You are like those idiots who said Batman Begins is shit because it is nothing like the first. What morons like you do not understand is that, it is a different representation. A whole other ballgame if you will...

loser? i'm far from a loser, actually i have succeeded in about everything i have done in life. i was just stating my opinon, loser boy. fuck off.

Yeah, you are probably right. One thing you have been very successful at is being an annoying ignorant moron. Open your mind. I'd rather you listen to Celine Dion then VR since she is probably closer to your level.

On the other hand, you aren't very good at comming back with witty replies. And there is a difference between comming up with references to back your opinion. Instead of just bashing. But hey, if you want to sound like a child the rest of your life, go on. I'll just be one of those people laughing at you.

What happened here anyway?  This started out as an innocent topic about VR's Rock Am performance on German TV, and look what's happened to it.  We're all being ridiculous here.  Let's just stop the arguing.  If you don't like VR, then stay out of the VR sections.  Why can't some people just let the past go?   

It started out just to be a reminder to any german fans to watch it on the telly.. :-\

VR looks awesome... that is  that kind of music is about, having fun with excellent rhythms..
