Title: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: Deniz on July 10, 2006, 05:52:19 AM I got up this morning and was just turninig the pages of my newspaper (H?rriyet) and in the 3rd page of the Kelebek add there was a half page axl interview that just shocked me.There's nothing very important in it but i thougt axl didn't give interviews so it was quite a suprise.Anyway he talkes about the 93 istanbul concert, and some other stuff.Then the interviewer asks about the cd and why didn't the label confirm the fall release, and he says there was a lot of changes in the company and they always supported the group, and when axl noticed that they r coming up with some great material the company allowed them to not release it and work on the cd more.He also mentions that he is trying to make this band like the old gn'r and it wasn't his choice for the old members to quit.When the guy askes if izzy is making an apperance he say's come to the show and see it for yourself.The guy then askes if there s any chance of a reuinon and axl says it's a very far chance.The paper also mentions that axl is afraid of water so he is not going to the arena on a boat but on a helicopter or an ambulance.Plus he wanted an afterpatry with turkish models packed in it.So one of turkey's most famous top models, Deniz akkaya, is invited.
Most of the interview seemed bs to me but for the ones who know turkish here's the link http://kelebek.hurriyet.com.tr/dunyadan/4724216.asp?gid=100 Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: Olorin on July 10, 2006, 05:55:38 AM Since when is he afraid of water?

Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: mert on July 10, 2006, 12:32:17 PM Interviewer: You are on the road again after a long break. How do you feel?
Axl:These shows are very important for us. We will be there no matter what is takes.I hope we will give our best to all of you who have supported me at all.We cant wait to see you in our trip to there. I:What do you remember about the concert in 1993(in istanbul)? A:All those shows were very special.Audience were warm and alive.It was exciting for us knowing that our shows were huge and nice. It was very important for the band. I:You said that chinese democracy will be out this year but record label has not confirmed yet?what is the last situation? A:There have been lots of changes both in record label and the band.People in the record label had lots of idea and they wanted the album to be as good as it can be.We always believed that we had the right songs but then someone thought that we could do it better. We started recording and continued to add new songs and recorded again and again.I believe when the album is out i will be proud of it. And we also have bunch of extra songs. I:Sebastian Bach tried to be the frontman of Velvet Revolver.And for this tour he is touring with you.Is this an answer to the members of Velvet Revolver? A: Sebastian Bach is my friend and we are touring with his band.The thing that we are trying to do is making GNR like it used to be in the past.This was not Guns n roses but now i feel that it is GNR. That was a thing that i lived before the guys in the band joined.And you know before them there were different band members in GNR. I wanted it to continue like that but that never feels good. I wasnt the person who made it this way. I: We know that Izzy is touring with you. Will we see Izzy here in Istanbul? A: Izzy was with us at some shows.But i dont want to say anything about istanbul. Come and see. I:Are all the doors closed to ex GNR members about a reunion? A:I think this is a very small probablibility. I:What do you want to say to Gnr fans in turkey? A:I want to thank to all GNR fans in Istanbul because of their love and support. It will be a great show. Thats the end of interview guys. My english is not perfect so maybe there are some grammer mistakes. but i have translated everything. there is also an article in the newspaper and it says organizators wanted to bring axl to concert arena by a boat but because axl is suffering from aquaphobia he will be brought to arena by a helicopter or an ambulance. Axl rose wanted only turkish models for afterparty.And the first name to be invited is Deniz Akkaya Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: Voodoochild on July 10, 2006, 12:48:08 PM Thanks dude, great read. :)

its seems real to me but i get the sensation that he is not sure about releasing CD soon :confused: Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: RichardNixon on July 10, 2006, 01:03:25 PM So the label kept rejecting songs?
Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: DazRose85 on July 10, 2006, 01:06:26 PM but i get the sensation that he is not sure about releasing CD soon? :confused: That's what I thought.

Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: RichardNixon on July 10, 2006, 01:18:16 PM but i get the sensation that he is not sure about releasing CD soon? :confused: That's what I thought.

Quote This was not Guns n roses but now i feel that it is GNR. he said the same line in 2002. And didn't he say that now he felt new GNR as an old band or something along those lines, on the radio this year? Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: mrgnrdvd on July 10, 2006, 07:43:43 PM I:Are all the doors closed to ex GNR members about a reunion?
A:I think this is a very small probablibility SO YOUR TELLING ME THERE"S A CHANCE Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: Locomotive98 on July 11, 2006, 03:48:50 AM I dont understand. Axl says I want this to be like GNR of the past, then why not get the old band back then. Thats the only way its gonna happen. Why oust your entire band only to decide that you want it to be the same as it was?
'I wasnt the person who made it this way.' - Priceless. As for him suffering aquaphobia - probably got it mixed up with agorophobia - hence not seeing him for 8 years or whatever.

Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: jarmo on July 12, 2006, 07:20:10 AM There's something wrong about this interview.
Parts of it sound like they were taken from various other interviews / press releases. :confused: /jarmo Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: Mikkamakka on July 12, 2006, 07:38:44 AM Thanks dude, great read. :) The thing that we are trying to do is making GNR like it used to be in the past.This was not Guns n roses but now i feel that it is GNR. :D ''What we're trying to do is build Guns N` Roses back into something,'' Rose explains quietly as he stands in front of a sunken isolation booth. ''This wasn't Guns N` Roses, but I feel it is Guns N` Roses now.'' :P January, 2000 Axl Speaks Rolling Stone, January 2000 The article mentions that "The new Guns N Roses album is tentatively titled Chinese Democracy and loosely scheduled for summer 2000." :rofl: http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/articles/showarticle.php?articleid=30 Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: Slashead on July 12, 2006, 09:24:33 AM To all the doubters: go see the new band live and tell us what you think. Not sure you would appreciate what I think about this version of GNR... :-\(Yes, I saw them) Interesting interview by the way. Axl should talk more... Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: rckn on July 12, 2006, 02:24:03 PM I:You said that chinese democracy will be out this year but record label has not confirmed yet?what is the last situation?
A:There have been lots of changes both in record label and the band.People in the record label had lots of idea and they wanted the album to be as good as it can be.We always believed that we had the right songs but then someone thought that we could do it better. This the same story that he told in radio interview 2002. It?s records company?s decission. We started recording and continued to add new songs and recorded again and again.I believe when the album is out i will be proud of it. And we also have bunch of extra songs. Right answer: It is definitely coming at fall, but the date will be annouced, when we know what song are going to be on it. Now he said, when... This worries me. Title: Re: Axl interview on turkish newspaper Post by: Where is Hassan Nasrallah ? on July 12, 2006, 02:47:41 PM i mean prada, chanel, gucci, interviews ..... turkish mafia never stops !!!
