Yesterday I posted a thread questioning about what Merck actually does in GNR, and what influence he has over Axl, was it deleted and if so why?

I don?t hate Merck, I just wonder what he actually does apart from releasing silly statements each year.

He's the manager.

There's no point in having a bunch of people speculating and making fun of his job.

I?m not making fun of the dude; I?m just asking a question.

What does he actually do?

And I answered, he's the manager.

If you wonder what a manager does, you might wanna read some articles about it online.

Isn't a manager supposed to get their artist to release material, work to deadlines, and do basically whatever the label tells them to?

I'll just presume that he?s Axl's sidekick then.

A talent manager, also known as a personal manager, is one who guides the career of artists in the entertainment business. The responsibility of the talent manager is to oversee the day to day business affairs of an artist; to advise and counsel talent about professional matters and personal decisions which may affect their career.

Like that fortune teller that told Axl to avoid cities beginning with the letter M.

Thanks for that Jarmo.

Is that why they played in Madrid, Spain, Milan, Italy, Malakasa, Greece and Manchester, UK in the summer?

And have shows scheduled in Milwaukee, WI and Minneapolis, MN on the upcoming tour.  ::)


Looks like you're only trying to stir shit up.....
