Title: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: alexrose on July 19, 2005, 05:01:09 AM Aaron:
I think Robin said it best himself when he wisely stated: " I know now that when i dig in the mud, I'm gonna get dirty as hell and wish for a swim. Then when wrapped in white linen, I'll secretly start to sweat and stink. And so it is. By - these years - I'll suppose you're suggesting in the flesh on the planet. What comes up for me now is consistent. The more I learn, and the greater I attune my attention with something beyond this little life of mine and yours.The more simply my way unfolds. I'm much more consciously aware of how my thoughts and actions bring immediate situation and circumstance to my life and that's hard to unlearn. Try as might. I see the me-to-be bathed in an obvious color and dancing wild desire out loud your lawn. A posture preluding silence." - Robin Finck ??? http://www.nin.com/access/7_19_05/index.php Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Dok on July 19, 2005, 05:25:19 AM That guy's supposed to be a rock n' roll guitarist. What a freak.

GNR needs musicians who "think outside the box".? ?:beer: Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: August 18th on July 19, 2005, 09:49:31 AM glad to see this thread backfire and all this support for finck. : ok: 8)
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: ppbebe on July 19, 2005, 10:37:12 AM Robins wording never fail to impress me.
There's a note of strong resolution in this statement. well said Robin! But what is "preluding"? ??? Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: August 18th on July 19, 2005, 10:39:44 AM preludium, isn't that some sort of "foreplay" for classical concerts? like a warm-up or something of that manner.
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: ppbebe on July 19, 2005, 10:49:50 AM Oh, a prelude!! Silly me! :D
I get it. So he's saying (this long) Silence preludes to something (huge). Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Where is Hassan Nasrallah ? on July 19, 2005, 10:54:26 AM aaron might also be making fun of robin.
there is no "robin rocks" here. Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Buddha_Master on July 19, 2005, 11:27:40 AM Wow. I hate to be having this reaction as a long time fan of NIN and Fincks mark but...that is some really amateurish poetry. Like something Mike Meyers would say on beatnick spoken word night. I am not a poet with words, but that doesn't make me not able to judge someone else's. I can't play the guitar, but I can recognize that Jimi Hendrix was a guitar god.
This is really horrible. Hopefully Axl is keeping Finck the fuck away from any lyrical input on Chinese D. Guns N' Roses is the very definition of great lyricisim and musicianship. Axl would never write something that pretentious and gay. Finck just needs to stick with the guitar. Someone needs to tell him that great poetry can be really basic in its nature, and should never sound like someone is trying to sound intelligent and poetic. He needs to be mindful of the flow and let go naturally. What a bunch of trite. Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: ppbebe on July 19, 2005, 12:00:33 PM Excuse me buddha but if you call this pretentious and gay, what we should call some of your posts on dope? :hihi:
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Buddha_Master on July 19, 2005, 12:12:20 PM Excuse me buddha but if you call this pretentious and gay, what we should call some of your posts on dope? :hihi: Man, you find my shit pretentious and gay? I am just being me dude. Finck, as I have seen interviews with him from years back, doesn't talk like that. And dude, I have never made one post about dope. And if I did, then I don't remember, so it never really happened. :smoking: Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Wooody on July 19, 2005, 02:07:34 PM Excuse me buddha but if you call this pretentious and gay, what we should call some of your posts on dope? :hihi: Man, you find my shit pretentious and gay?

I'm just saying Robin might secretly sweat it out, which might stink but his sweat is no more pretentious and gay than your shit is. A real Master of whatever field would say, "Forget the sissy words such as "pretentious" n "gay", or forget about your art." :smoking: dude, it's ok dude, we can't all be like Rimbaud dude, ok dude ? nice dude. : ok: True But that titanic guy made it. Judging from the film the Rimbaud dude was a pretentious gay. :hihi: Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Nytunz on July 19, 2005, 03:09:33 PM Bla bla bla! Robin Finck is a damn good Guitarplayer! and a Poet! There is more about Robin then the eye can see!
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Eva GnRAxlRosette on July 19, 2005, 03:15:52 PM I enjoy robin's style of writing... and writers don't 'walk around' speaking like they write. Does Axl go around talking like "It's hard to hold a candle...." ::)
anyhow yeah, an opportunity for some "Robin Love" :love: : ok: Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: nesquick on July 19, 2005, 03:18:13 PM NIGHTRAIN! NIGHTRAIN!? :hihi:
His backing vocals are...NIGHTRAIN! Some bootlegs are Hilarous.

But he did use the term "dive in and find the monkey".? ?:hihi: Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Saul on July 19, 2005, 03:35:12 PM I enjoy robin's style of writing... and writers don't 'walk around' speaking like they write. Does Axl go around talking like "It's hard to hold a candle...." ::) I dunno , I havent heard axl speak a word in about 3 years. ??? Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: rainX on July 19, 2005, 03:51:09 PM Do we even know 100 percent of Robin said this, or if it's just this Aaron guy mocking him? This is the same Aaron that "pisses on robin's shoes", correct?
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: ppbebe on July 19, 2005, 03:57:19 PM I donno. Wasn't it Trent who said "piss on Robins shoes"?
I dunno , I havent heard axl speak a word in about 3 years. ??? Quote No. But he did use the term "dive in and find the monkey". I want to find that monkey. Where is it? Oops bloody off topic.Yeah Robin's got a style, whatever he does. That's his nature. Don't be jealous, dude. :P Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Saul on July 19, 2005, 04:13:14 PM why is it that Trent and the NIN members seem to have a huge hardon for Finck? ???
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: rainX on July 19, 2005, 04:16:02 PM why is it that Trent and the NIN members seem to have a huge hardon for Finck?? ???? how could you not :) but yeah, i always found it weird that trent seemed to go out of his way to diss robin like that. it's not robins fault he wanted to stay in guns n' roses. Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Saul on July 19, 2005, 04:19:08 PM why is it that Trent and the NIN members seem to have a huge hardon for Finck? ??? how could you not :) but yeah, i always found it weird that trent seemed to go out of his way to diss robin like that. it's not robins fault he wanted to stay in guns n' roses. After checking the NIN site you see it's an obvious dif at finck .. cause that aaron quote was a responce to this brilliant question ... "That fucking aaron north guy sucks ass why would you pick him over the great robin finck???" lol Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: crazycanadian on July 19, 2005, 04:22:10 PM Wow.

Some people!
I've been called a freak all my life. Join the club Robin and be proud of it!!! Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: HoldenCaulfield on July 19, 2005, 05:00:50 PM It's just a theory at this point, but I believe Mr. Robin Finck is the coolest friggin' person on the planet...
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: jameslofton29 on July 19, 2005, 05:40:26 PM So Robin really wrote this. Its hilarious, but not in the way you might think. He has waited so long to be a real rock star and release an album that at some point, he decided to become a poet. Trust me, if this guy can sit around writing this kind of stuff, there is NOTHING happening with GNR. I'm not bashing him for writing this. If he wants to do this, more power to him. But it just proves zero is being accomplished on CD. And dont give me that bullshit line about the 'music is already done'. Fortus contradicted that statement in one of his last interviews.
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: AdZ on July 19, 2005, 08:06:36 PM Do you honestly think him it took him months to write that?
I'm pretty sure he can do more than one thing in a day.. Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Saul on July 19, 2005, 08:17:24 PM Do you honestly think him it took him months to write that? I'm pretty sure he can do more than one thing in a day.. ??? I dont understand. Did someone say it took him months to write it or? Personally , I dont think Robin even wrote it , I'm thinking that the North guy is mocking him. Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: AdZ on July 19, 2005, 08:34:37 PM I was talking to jameslofton29, philosopher of the century.
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: jameslofton29 on July 19, 2005, 08:39:33 PM ADZ, it's actually ' Philosopher of the Millenium.
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: AdZ on July 19, 2005, 08:40:24 PM You're banned.
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Timmy on July 19, 2005, 08:45:25 PM I was hoping this would pertain to the record
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: jameslofton29 on July 19, 2005, 08:47:21 PM ADZ, you've got some thin skin if 'philosopher of the millenium' offends you that much.
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Saul on July 19, 2005, 08:47:57 PM I was hoping this would pertain to the record NIN record or GNR record? ??? Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Timmy on July 19, 2005, 08:51:19 PM I was hoping this would pertain to the record NIN record or GNR record?? ???

THE record Ummm , I'll assume you mean the GNR record. But really , even though you are on a GNR board doesnt just mean we should take it for granted you mean democracy. :peace: peace Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Timmy on July 19, 2005, 08:57:57 PM I was hoping this would pertain to the record NIN record or GNR record?? ???

Personally , I dont think Robin even wrote it , I'm thinking that the North guy is mocking him. Yeah, I suspect the same. Anyway, this could have taken 5 minutes of his or Aaron's (or whatshisname) life. Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: badapple81 on July 20, 2005, 06:51:14 AM So Robin really wrote this.

How does someone putting a paragraph or two of poetry prove that nothing has been accomplished? Why do you turn every thread into a nothing has been recorded/finished thread? Starting to sound like a broken record. Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: DoubleTalkingJive on July 20, 2005, 02:52:08 PM So Robin really wrote this.

Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: rainX on July 22, 2005, 01:57:42 PM So there's no confirmation either way whether or not robin even wrote this?
Title: Re: Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck Post by: Casbah on July 22, 2005, 05:59:39 PM He did write it.. it is somewhere on his website.. I think in the 'you first' section.

I think in the 'you first' section. yes, in 'quest' - 'call and response' - 'you first' it was in response to this question submitted by a visitor to the site: "How have you changed during these years and what is the next methamorphosis of you?" I think it's awesome how Robin shares with his fans. :love: |
