Here Today... Gone To Hell!

Sorry if this is an old subject.
When Axl says, "Guess what I'm doing now" in My World, is he smoking a joint?  Something else?  You hear the lighter flick, then a couple hits.  Like I said, sorry if this is old news, but I've always thought this, and I would just like to confirm it.  Thanks.

BONG!

No it's not a bong.  You would hear the gurgling.  I'm being serious here.  Has this not been discussed before?  He's clearly hitting something, and saying, "Guess what I'm doing now".  My guess is a roach.

i always thought it was a hit from the ol' crack pipe....

masturbating

It's a crack pipe.......

i wish everyone would stop appolagising for shit.....man fuck em' (us...whatever)

I dont know what it is...maybe a state of bliss or somethin', gettin' his rocks off!! :beer:

dead on.

When he said that line he was recording vocals for My World :peace:

That was during the recording for "Rocket Queen" not "My World"

When Axl says "Guess what I'm doing now..."

He is plotting the Chinese Democracy saga.  You can even hear the subliminal analogy hidden in the context. :hihi:

Well, since a you can hear a girl having an orgasm after he says it, I'm assuming it has something to do with sexual activity. Not smoking a joint or a bong.

Amen on that

Back when this was first out I was at a friends house smoking some hash. There was like 5 or 6 of us there. Someone asked that same question... the response from another was simply "He's banging yer mom" (hilarious if you were as stoned as we were at the time).

Personally I have no clue to what he really meant, and I think that was the intention.. to "Use your illusions".

he was writing the email "Slash is not part of GNR anymore bla bla bla"

Ditto. I think "Guess What I'm Doing Now" = "Use your illusions"


I guess he was writing out the "Guess What I'm Doing Now" line. :peace:

"Oh my distorted smile"

he's smoking crack ok, nothing more nothing les. you can clearly hear him flicking the lighter, you can clearly hear him inhale, and you can clearly hear him saying "guess what i'm doing now" while holding his breath before he's exhaling.... c'mon it's not that complicated to figure out.

so it has to be crack? cant be a joint , hash , weed , a cig?!

I always thought he was diving in and spanking the monkey  :hihi:

doesn't sound like a cig or a joint to me, but it could be weed or hash, but people who smoke that very ofthen use water pipes...

When he says "guess what I'm doing now"?

He was putting the finishing touches on "Chinese Democracy."

Thank you.  You clearly hear the lighter, you clearly hear him take some hits...  "Oh my distorted smile..."  Could be crack, bud, meth...  Doubt it's tobacco heh  I hope it's a roach, because crack would be disappointing, but whatever.  He's still the best.

Axl was doing what Im doing right now...smoking a fat probably 5 pap joint :smoking:

The moaning in the background is suspicious though...maybe in between hits he was eating a groupie out or somethin' :peace:

Actually, when Axl decided to record 'My World' he was on 'shrooms. Someone put them in his tea. It only took him 3 hours to write and record the song.

That's probably the reason why it sounds the way it does.  :P

Man, I thought Pink Floyd was fucking trippy on mushrooms, but My World is a whole new level of trippyness. Listen to that shit on loud and your in tears laughing :hihi:

And listen to pink elephants rumbling. :hihi:

crack, joint , hash, weed and 'shrooms?

I should have thought that people's imagination is rather poor. Use your illusion more.  : ok:

Guess what Im not doing now...

Being original :hihi:

Performing a new trick of steering a thread off the track.  :hihi:

Now... Guess what Im doing now.....

Maybe Axl needs more 'shrooms to finish chinese  :hihi:

Sex.

Crack?

mmm close...  :smoking:

re:rocketqueen  while recording song, something axl tried to work out with various people- a recorded sex act.  he says it was somewhat spontaneous but premeditated, something he wanted to put on the record.....  it was a sexual song and it was a wild night in the studio!!!!

yeah i was always sure, he meant he was jacking off.

Definately smoking something.. You hear the lighters then after awhile you can hear someone exhaling.....

No he is just breathing. Kind of like he does at the end of Patience except in a more sexual way. He is not smoking anything. It would have nothing to do with what the song is about.

he's having a wank whilst on drugs.

He's about to light a fuse to an explosive or to touch the button.

Yeah, blowing up his world.
