Title: Baz reveals more about "The General", CD, and more!
Post by: GNRreunioneventually on November 05, 2007, 05:33:53 PM
hey all when i saw this up on CD.com i about pissed myself with glee ;D

anyway, heres the artical that was re-typed by guns_n_motley-

in the new metal edge november/december edition. I typed up the part about Chinese democracy.


Well, Ive heard the six tracks that were leaked, and they're amazing

Bach: But those arent the final versions. he laughed about those. those arent the record. those are some other version of whatever. One of my favorite songs - I asked axl if I could mention the song titles and he said "fine"--and one of my favorite songs is this song called "the general" which is so, its by far the heaviest metal tune I think ive ever heard axl do, this slow grinding riff with these high peircing vocals, screaming vocals. I was like , when is this coming out? and he said "2012" I was like dude, your killin me! He goes, "well this comes out on the third record. it relates to this song, its a trilogy, this goes with this lyrically." hes got it all figured out, hes just different than other people. he does thingso n his own time, in his own way, but you know...the worlds not prepared for what ive heard from this guy. its got the grandness and the epic-ness of november rain but with the snarl, the attitude of appetite. because the album that ive heard, alot of the drumming is by brain, who plays so heavy and mean. its a really...grand is the word for it, but its still got that attitude. Theres some great music comin' your way. My album meanwhile is 100 percent comin out on november 20. thats 100 percentile. its done, its mastered, ive got it on my fucking ipod and its ready to go.

and another question

Do you ever get him on the phone and say "will you just put your fuckin record out already?"

Bach: I said that to him once, and it was one of the only times he bristled at me. He goes "Oh, everybody, sebastians got a great fucking idea. Hey! I should put out a record! Thanks, man what would I do without you dude...thats awesome." I was like Ok, I get it. Ill never say that again. see, the thing that nobody gets, that I get, is that he has like four albums Done. Ive heard it. So get ready! All you people who dont think hes gonna put out a record are sadly mistaken. He just takes his time. its his album. axl does what he wants to do, thats the way it is. And just cause you havent heard it doesnt mean its not done.


when i read that part about "The General", isn't that the same thing he said about "Sorry"?

:peace:

Iprobably read too much in to that buuut...
I understood it like axl's plan is that the third album will be out 2012, (wich in my world means second album maybe will be out 2010 and first 2008? :D pure speculation of course) at first i thought it was a joke from axl but then i as i said read maybe too much in to it :hihi:

If the third album is gonna come out in 2012, I suppose there's a 2 year break between the other albums, so 2008 will be the year of the first one, right? ;D

Thanks for the info.. Hope it's true about this interview. :)

yeah and he said sorry had high peircing vocals, screaming vocals..

but he also said sorry was more like doom metal

and general was "its by far the heaviest metal tune I think ive ever heard axl do" wich to me means fast drums and shit.. also didn't someone say that the general was brains favourite song or something or that it erally showed brains skillz or something?

God Damn you made my day!  Whatever will the negative fucks (who throw out the $13 million or $15 million figure for one album) do when they find out there are 4 albums all made for between 3 and 4 mill. a piece???   ???

This really did make my day, thanks for posting.   :beer:

Ali

so would that mean that both songs are like that or is it posible that he got his titles messed up?

and the same thing was said at CD.com, if the last one falls in 2012 then maybe the second in 2010 and the first in 2008, but what i don't understand is WHY have it spread out over a course of 6years?

why not release one album every 6 or 7 months?

Thanks for posting.

no problem, but the credit goes to guns_n_motley at CD.com for re-typing it

Brain: "Watch out for a song called The General".

That was taken from an Internet chat with him back in 2002/2003 when asked about his favorite track on 'Chinese Democracy'.

becayse maybe there are too many awesome songs.. like why release album number 2 when there's still enough great songs to release as singles on album one.. you know.. that can be one reason.. to be honest i would do the same thing and release a new record every second year.. and maybe the world aint ready for all at the same time :P :hihi:

If it's not a commercial succes and doesn't blow the emo and rap crap out of here i don't care, it's not axl's musics fault, it's the people who don't realize what good and not :hihi:? to be honest i don't care about those people.. as long as we the fans like it and the bands like it that's what matters, i'm sure i will love it, if it's a big commercial succes , well congratulations to axl and the record company and everybody involved

Seems like Sebastian is the spokesperson for the band these days.  I'm beginning to think that he'll give us the official release date before anyone else.  He makes it SEEM like Axl has a definite plan of attack here, and I'm sure he does.  I just wish we were brought up to date a little bit about what that plan must consist of.  But I know, I know, this is GNR, that's not gonna happen.  I'll just have to accept this information as true and that Axl just doesn't feel the time is right to unleash the beast to the public.  I just hope the time comes sometime soon, if he's going on what the public is into right now we'll never hear the album.  Maybe he's waiting for the music industry to reach an all-time low before he saves us all.  I think we're almost there.

See, Baz listened to my profile!

It all sounds great and the way he describes it is very unlike the way he describes HIS OWN music, which means he knows its way better than whats out there.

I like that Axl has a concept. I just hope he didn't get carried away with it and that it doesn't get tired by the 3rd record. I'm not sure I can handle 5 new November Rains and 3 Estrangedes. Axl with GNR has already made many great songs and covered the spectrum of human emotion. It will be interesting to see and hear new material, some of which covering new themes and sounds.

But like I have said before, the songs that have been heavily covered by topics on these boards and dissected are probably not even going to be the songs that matter in the end. Axl woudn't leak his BEST songs (except to Baz - lucky him)

well, this is kinda what I was thinking, three albums sounds awesome and all but... its hard enough for them to release ONE album.......I dont even want to think about the other two... I would even go as far as to say that I wont really wait for the other two, just give me one and Ill be happy.

Yeah, let's take it ONE album at a time.  Let's not get ahead of ourselves.  I'll take an EP, like Lies at this point.  4 new songs, 4 older songs dubbed over with crowd noise, give me something.

Am I the only one who sees this 2012 thing as a joke in ways?? I mean what if the first album(s) dont sell like planned, and they need to release them earlier... Or they sell huge and demand even speeds it up.... Hell the way the CD set list has changed, it could be on the second.....

Didnt axl say back in 02 an album every 6 months? I just think the whole 2012 thing might be a stretch, even on axls part(at least i hope :hihi:)

I wonder if Bach also asked Axl if it was OK to talk about the existence of 3 albums and potential release scheduling ;)

Post by: gcluskey on November 05, 2007, 08:45:08 PM
Well if Axl has three albums coming it looks like he's gonna make alot of money for himself over the next few years and he can relax and put his feet up and not have to worry about recording for a while or listening to everyone whining about him. Thanks for the update Baz. I think Axl's idea is pretty clear now, spend a few years putting alot of work in then chill out and release his work when he wants to. Axl you're a fuckin legend!!!

"its got the grandness and the epic-ness of november rain but with the snarl, the attitude of appetite. because the album that ive heard, alot of the drumming is by brain, who plays so heavy and mean. its a really...grand is the word for it, but its still got that attitude."

I don't know about anyone else, but reading that made me happy. ?A drummer like Brain really only comes around once in a while.. He's that good..and he's got that groove. Steven had it. Matt didn't/doesn't have it and Frank doesn't have it. I'm still glad that Frank has recorded tracks but I'm glad that Brain plays on the majority of the album (from what I've read). ?;)

well, since the first album of this chinese democracy trilogy was supposed to be out in 1999, we know that we can safely add 9 years to any release date that Axl gives us.

This can be formulated as follows:

Actual Release Date = (What Axl Says) + At least 9 years.

This means that this third album with The General will safely be yours in time for Christmas of 2021.




Give me a break. This is just Baz dropping Axl's name to give his own album more publicity. Isn't it obvious?
Why do you all believe this crap?

although i can't argue with your reasoning i have to say that if the record company has everything in there hands, then a release date for the second and third one should be out RIGHT when they say it will be. think about it, the record company (IF they have it) won't let Axl have it back so when the time inevitably comes that Axl wants to change something they won't let him and they'll go along with their plan........course that could bring up some major legal issues and the posible threat of us not seeing the other two but i digress, once one falls the others will two when they say they will imho

I've always been worried about the whole 3 or 4 album thing. Mainly because I fear that if Axl doesn't like the way that the first album is recieved, then we could never get to hear the rest of the albums.

It would be nice just to have the first album received...period.

It sounds like sarcasm to me, dude.  Like, maybe annoyed but still maintaining a sense of humor?  That kind of thing.

Funny you say that...

Frankly, I could not think of a better description for myself: Slightly annoyed, and steeped in sarcasm....24/7.

I laughed out loud when I read that? :rofl: :rofl:

whatever, 2012 for the third record isn't that bad..maybe it's like first record in 2008, second in 2010 and third in 2012. They'll have plenty of time to promote the record (aka touring? :love: ) and get people to buy the record sounds like a plan to me  : ok: One record every 6 months might be a bit much....if Axl was serious when he said 2012 that is? :hihi:

Wow,

1) AWESOME!!!

2) The 3 album concept is back?!?! I swear we got news from the band that that was no longer in the pipeline?! We've heard so many conflicting pieces on this notion over the last few years!

Can anyone remember the last time it was denied and whom by? Werent we told CD was going to be one record with 12 songs or something.

Wow, Thanks Baz,

Im not putting him down though, hes a cool guy,

But I want to hear the band talk about chinese democracy, not someone who isnt in the band,

I want to hear someone who actually worked on the songs saying "the general is this awsome song that we made, It has this fast grinding riff''' etc..

Baz is cool, but I would rather someone in the band talking about gnr...

Mabye im just psd off that Baz is continually hanging this carrot infront of all our noses, and
in away, hes creating buzz for cd , but at the same time, people are hating him for doing this...

Bittersweet...

No problem with being friends, best friends even....but what is that thing between Bach & Rose? Sebastian is talking more about Axl & GN'R than his own stuff...I don't get that.
Is he in love with Axl or something?    :yes:  :love:

Really, I've got nothing against gay people, honestly not....but am I the only one who have this thought about the whole 'Baz loves Axl' shit? He (Baz) even weares make-up  :rofl:

But at the same time,
We dont need Baz TELLING us how good cd is,
we have heard alot of songs already from chinese democracy,
but for baz to be continually saying "IVE HEARD THIS GREAT SONG ETC"
50 times each month, its like his rubbing our noses in it,
Im glad he likes the cd songs,
But I want to hear this kind of enthusiasm from the people that actually made the songs,

I am happy about it,

Its just that it seems like a cop - out, like baz is becoming the new spokesperson for gnr,

Why havent we heard from Robin or fortus, or anyone talking about the songs?

If a person outside the gnr camp, i.e Baz, who has no real direct input into the musical direction of gnr,
can talk about a song, that no one else has heard before other then the gnr camp,

then Why cant Robin, Fortus, Bumble, etc talk about it...?

how typical, someone's always gotta shit on the cupcake
you can say that baz is rubbing our noses in it and dangling a carrot in front of our noses all you want but i'd take this over when we had the droughts where we were speculating whether there even WAS a CD or not.. i'm sorry but i'd rather have someone tell me how great it is over and over than no one confirming its EXISTANCE! do you have any idea how many skeptical friends i have that don't believe there's even going to BE an album? thats why when (yes, thats right, i said "when" instead of "if" because we KNOW it exists :-P) CD drops i'm buying about 15 copies and smacking my friends in the face with em

and we haven't heard anything from finck or fortus because they're under contract to not talk about the album! remember? anyone that works with it has to keep it on the down-low?

its like hes trying to get us excited over cd, like as if we already arent,
Next ?week, he will be talking about Thyme..

? ? I don't even consider the dates 08, 10, 12, I learned my lesson, I look at the dates like Axl (they don't exist, at this point they aren't even "tentative" and look where that date got us)....who is going to say in for example 09 the decide to tinker "alittle" with the second and third albums.

Talking about this band dates are irrevelant.

? Like I said, I love the news, thank god for Baz cause if it wasn't for him we wouldn't know any of this but I don't need Baz to get excited about the album I'll be excited as hell, WHEN IT COMES OUT! no point of being excited about before that.

Baz mentioned sorry after he listened to the songs for an album (the first album) after kroq show in September 06.

and now having heard more songs in December he mentions the general which is slated to be on the 3rd album.

So I assume the two are different songs and the song related to the general is sorry.

I think Sebastian is starting to cross the line a bit and is oblivious to the fact that the media are now using him to find out about Axl and CD and if it wasn't for his connection to Axl, he wouldn't be getting much press at all.

I think he is using Axl a little too much to be honest.

That would make more sence to me, I'm reading slash' bio and just read the part about GNR having two albums(appettite and lies) in the billboard top 5 albums at the same time, i could see axl wanted to out do this and therefore won't have too long a gap between each album.

Nice to know that there is indeed 3-4 albums almost or fully completed for us to hear one day.

well, since the first album of this chinese democracy trilogy was supposed to be out in 1999, we know that we can safely add 9 years to any release date that Axl gives us.

This can be formulated as follows:

Actual Release Date = (What Axl Says) + At least 9 years.

This means that this third album with The General will safely be yours in time for Christmas of 2021.




Give me a break. This is just Baz dropping Axl's name to give his own album more publicity. Isn't it obvious?
Why do you all believe this crap?


baz isnt dropping axls name at all. im tired of people saying this. DJ's ASK HIM these questions about CD, the leaks etc. and baz answers them. its not like hes going out of his way.

I love Sebastian but I think he should shut up for a while.


I know u guys are loving all these updates but I want news from AXL not Sebastian, and if he isn't careful, he is gonna go too far and truly piss Axl off and then it may be 13 years before he hears from Axl again.


I think Sebastian is starting to cross the line a bit and is oblivious to the fact that the media are now using him to find out about Axl and CD and if it wasn't for his connection to Axl, he wouldn't be getting much press at all.

I think he is using Axl a little too much to be honest.
I agree to an extent, however I don't think he's using him to be honest.. I think he's as excited about this as he seems to be about pretty much everything. Baz seems to be a really outgoing guy who loves to talk without taking a moment and really think about what he does necessarily..remember the Savage Animal stuff on VH1's Supergroup? "Yo check it out, i've got a name...Savage animal dude, yeahhhhhhhh!!! I love the way it rolls off my tongue man, fucking awesome man" etc clearly missing the irony of that name as a bandname and not realizing how ridiculous of a name it really is. And then that interview on Eddie Trunk last week where Ron was pretty much hinting Baz not to talk about CD so much..which he obviously did. I don't think he even really realizes that he's basically the only one who's really giving us any insight into GNR (even though he isn't in the band to begin with) and how that can come across on people.

Then again, I'm sure that Axl knows about Baz talking about all of this stuff, and even if he wouldn't (which I doubt) he's bound to find out.


Title: Re: Baz reveals more about "The General", CD, and more!
Post by: Voodoochild on November 06, 2007, 01:51:17 PM
Did anyone read the rest of the interview? How can you say he's more focused on Axl/CD than Angel Down?


Damn, can't you notice how WE, as GNR fans, obviously pay more attention on that? We are focused on Guns N' Roses. Just read/listen to the whole interview before. Also, of course Baz will talk about Axl every time - it's what people do on interviews. They need to tell the same history several times to each magazine/radio/whatever.

I can't believe how something good about the album - which everybody here wants - can't be just something good. There's always people who will bitch about not being the way they wanted.

Post by: ppbebe on November 06, 2007, 02:56:12 PM
judging from the article, that's what axl said to baz.


Bach: One of my favorite songs - I asked axl if I could mention the song titles and he said "fine"--and one of my favorite songs is this song called "the general" which is so, its by far the heaviest metal tune I think ive ever heard axl do, this slow grinding riff with these high peircing vocals, screaming vocals. I was like , when is this coming out? and he said "2012" I was like dude, your killin me! He goes, "well this comes out on the third record. it relates to this song, its a trilogy, this goes with this lyrically." hes got it all figured out, hes just different than other people. he does thingso n his own time, in his own way, but you know...

Didn't Baz say he sang on Sorry? ?Or is it The General now? I'm confused.

Also, let's say the release pattern is the 2008-2010-2012 pattern people are talking about. ?I would think the chances of the other two records leaking ahead of time would be immense. ?Maybe the record company is pushing Guns to condense or release all three? ?Pure speculation of course.

when he mentioned of sorry he just heard the songs for the first album,didn't he?and now having heard more songs he talks about the song on the third album. and I assume the song related to the general(slated for the third album) is sorry(slated for the first album).

After reading the answer to the second question in the first post again, I realize he's saying he heard all 4 albums.  Didn't realize that until now, just thought he'd heard the one.

he listened all the new material. so, "4 complete albums" (3 albums + some extra tracks, probably).
i suppose the tracking list is not totally fixed for the next ones, but maybe it is now, since Axl said the general
is on the last one.

anyway, it's time to give us a first single, i hope the record company will be smart enough to do that this month.

and i hope the legal problems has nothing to do with the old members...

Releasing 3 cd's might be a problem for the record company... but if the pattern is 2008-2010-2012, there's no way they would leak much earlier than any other record. I mean, would the millions of copies of the other two records just sit in some huge warehouse for two (or four) years? Haha. They won't go in production any earlier than any other record.

I think they don't even want to make a 3 cd deal right now if you know what I mean... They probably want to see if the first cd sells or not. Why don't they just ask us. ;D ;D ;D

Nothing to do wit the music because you may like or dislike any music, but you can't call GNR fans as inferior to Nirvana. Nirvana was cut, dried and died. GNR is an epic story and they're open for any type of speculation. Different members comes and go and different versions of Axl come and go and people may have different opinions about them (dumb or not). But they exist and continue to stride to a better conclusion to the epic.

The fact alone stands that people who like GNR are perhaps seeking a higher source of inspiration from a band that was all over here yesterday and lived to tell about it today and sing and play songs about it instead of a numb-nuts who ended it. GNR fans are smarter than Nirvana fans - I'll always believe that until my end.

another good point.

when Baz was answering madison's question on the trunk show the other day, he said:  "nobody else in this business has helped me out as much as Axl Rose."

I'm beginning to buy into this theory more and more.  I mean granted, mentioning Axl as much as Baz does is done primarily to drum up interest in the public for Angel Down.  BUT, I think Sebastian is truly greatful for all that Axl has done for him and he's willing to try and do the same for Axl.  And I think it's quite possible that Axl has given Baz permission to push his name and information about Chinese Democracy.  After all, "the timing couldn't be better."

if the songs are done and the discs are all complete (no reason to think they're not at the very least close to finished) i'll be shocked if the 2nd and/or 3rd albums don't leak somehow.

Seems like every new CD by major artists leaks a week or two before it comes out.  Albums 2 and 3 could take years!  That would totally suck ass if it leaks.

as for the Slash dropping Axl's name - c'mon - why shouldn't he?  Slash is tied to GNR which is tied to Axl.  Should Slash talk about Weiland? hahah.  Isn't the book about his days in Guns too? 

Show me one person here who WOULDN'T ask Slash about why he left the band or what it was like being with Guns back in the day blah blah blah.  It's what people want to hear and know more about.  Thats what I would talk to him about, not the making of Libertad for god's sake!  :rofl:

Very well said. I always get a laugh on these boards when people want to PRETEND slash has nothing to do with gnr. Newsflash, ALL the music you own by gnr (with the exceptions of a few unfinished demos) and love, have SLASH in them. 90% of ALL concerts that this new band plays, and we all love, would have nothing to play if it was not for SLASH! The argument that some use is "this new version has been together longer than the old" WHO CARES!, In all this time, what have they done? I have been to the concerts, loved them, they play Slash's music very well. People all over the world know slash, he is and ALWAYS will be thought of when you here the words Guns n Roses. Why do you think his book is selling? People who love gnr what to know things about the band. He was there for the BEST part of the band, I think he knows a little more about Axl than buckethead. Sure he is going to tell some stories and twist some things, so would Axl. There is no right or wrong. They were both strung out on drugs and booze, who are we to say one is a liar and one isnt?

Wow. Slash talking about Axl nowadays or GNR after he left is one thing. He has zero connection with him or the band now and everything he says is no different than any of us saying the same - just wishful thinking, although he always seem to make it sound like he knows something.

Sebastian talking about Axl who worked with him in Angel Down, who asked him to sing on Sorry on the new album and with whom he did a major tour is other thing.

But when people who haven't spent any time with Axl in the last ten years say something even remotely nice, it's all about them clearing the air and being cool towards Axl.


Baz is talking about HIS friend who sings on HIS album.

It's not like he spends every interview talking about Skid Row in order to sell his new album. Some other people do it like that.

? ? I don't want to quote anyone... not to single out anyone post. But the shit posted about Slash/Axl are bullshit. They will forever be connected, for christ's sake they worked on 5 pretty amazing albums together let alone embarked on the longest tour in Rock n' Roll History....(UYI tour 91-93). I love this band new/old I get frustrated about the CD not being released but hey, it will come out when it comes out.

 Slash is great and I love him I respect the fact that he left and the band continues but that gives none of you pylons the right to disregard the work he did while in the band.

Why should he have no right to talk about his time in the band? He even sketched the fuckin' logo.

He brought out a book and that's it, if Paul Mc Cartney brought out a book you think he wouldn't talk about John, they were a bit bigger than Guns and spent years not talking to eachother. But for damn sure every interview both ever did after The Beatles they were asked about the time and what the fuck is up.

The bullshit is the fact that people are whining about Baz.

He's talking about NOW. Axl sings on his album coming out in about two weeks.

It's not something from ten years ago.


It's current, it's happening. What's the fucking problem?  ::)

He brought out a book and that's it, if Paul Mc Cartney brought out a book you think he wouldn't talk about John, they were a bit bigger than Guns and spent years not talking to eachother. But for damn sure every interview both ever did after The Beatles they were asked about the time and what the fuck is up.
 

did sir paul Paul McCartney talk about  john every time he released a wings album? That must have been ridiculous :o

^ God forbid Baz to talk about what he knows and what he has. Also, people can't say nice things about Axl, it's always ass-kissing and bad using of his name. :P

Yeah? So what about CD being released in March 2006? Or about Axl having only two or three songs recorded?

And it's usually the same people!


no it isn't, you just chose to put those who have a slightly different opinion on the "negative" pile.


They're upset that somebody who actually has spent time with Axl has something nice to say.

no im not....


But when people who haven't spent any time with Axl in the last ten years say something even remotely nice, it's all about them clearing the air and being cool towards Axl.

exactly my point, what did slash say in the recent interview that was "negative"? As far as i was concerned he was asked about Axl and GnR, what is was like way back then. He said it was crazy, bnlah blah, but also said that he wanted to put all the animosity to one side, he said he was not blameless for how things have turned out. So why move the thread and constantly bash slash? if you dont like him, why feel the need to comment?

to my main point...

I bet if any other celebrity in the world had mentioned Axl Rose on that show, the thread would not have been moved. FACT.



It's not like he spends every interview talking about Skid Row in order to sell his new album. Some other people do it like that.


again, unneccessary cheap shots because you dont like the man in the top hat.


Baz is talking about HIS friend who sings on HIS album.


^^ just about the only true statement in your entire post.


Can't we just like the old and new band and its members, past and present?

 ? First off, I'm not complaining about Baz talking about CD I think it's great and thank god for him because id it wasn't for him we would know dick.


 ? I'm talking about people saying Slash shouldn't talk about Axl or Guns because he has nothing to do with them at this moment or in the past 10 years that's a crock.

 ?Paul Mc Cartney still talks about John all the fuckin' time, back when he was in Wings he probably wasn't allowed to because Linda was there but he still did his talk no doubt about that.

 ?Slash said some things in the past and for sure he had his reasons. It's not easy, these guy's were like husband and wife...whatever more promotion for Axl more promotion for CD

 ?I love Baz am a huge fan of his work ( was a die hard Skids fan, met him and Skid Row a few times back in the day... )but him begging to get the Stern show makes him sound like a tool...regardless if it is NOW or not. "Is Axl's voice not more important than Slash's book?"

 ? What would this guy be saying if he got the VR gig? ?I'd love to see if he would be Axl's little buddy then. These guy's are all a bunch of Hypocritical rockstars.

Sorry man none of this shit flies.


? By the way, is Soundgarden/Faith No More on the main GNR page a major event happening now/recently or 12 years ago? I think Slash has much more to do with Guns than fuckin Chris Cornell and Mike Patton talk about dead horse. ?

 

 ? ?

Yeah, I think that would have to be the case too.  I mean, I'm sure if Axl didn't want Baz to say anything about CD then he would tell him so.  In a way, it keeps him in the public eye without him having to do anything at all.  It's a no lose situation.

when i read that part about "The General", isn't that the same thing he said about "Sorry"?

:peace:


You are correct, sir. ?He also said that "Sorry" had a slow, grinding beat. ?A beat he could not get out of his head.

Ali

yeah and he said sorry had high peircing vocals, screaming vocals..

but he also said sorry was more like doom metal

and general was "its by far the heaviest metal tune I think ive ever heard axl do" wich to me means fast drums and shit.. also didn't someone say that the general was brains favourite song or something or that it erally showed brains skillz or something?


No. he said the lyrics to sorry were "clean" if i remember the exact word - definitely not screeching. combined with a slightly different description of the music and i am confident he is not mixing the two songs up.

I think it's just that Axl just made a guess about the third album because he *believes* the first one will come out next year. I don't think it would all drop in the same year, there's no indication ever that this was/is the plan.

Still can't believe people fail to understand the difference between Sebastian talking about Axl to promote his album in a way that is relevant in the here and now (toured with him in 2006 and 2007, laid down vocals for Chinese Democracy in 2007, has Axl appearing on 3 songs on his album which comes out in 2 weeks, has head Chinese Democracy, is speaking about things that are relevant today) and Slash talking about Axl to promote his music when it is either BS or revolves around events that happened 11+ years ago (announcing Chinese Democracy is coming out in 2006 when he has no clue, talking about the infamous "house incident" and changing his story 3 or 4 times, talking about wanting to do reunions, speaking on things that happened 11+ years) all after several times saying he doesn't want to talk about Axl anymore

Slash's music in 2007 has absolutely nothing to do with Axl Rose.  Slash's music since 1996 has had nothing to do with Axl Rose in any way, shape or form.  Sebastian Bach's music in 2007 does have to do with Axl, he is on the album, he toured with Guns, he recorded vocals for Chinese Democracy this year.  If it's a case of both "using" Axl to sell records, that's for the individual to decide but at least when Bach speaks on Axl it's a)relevant to both his and Axl's music in this day and age and b)is actually informed and truthful

Then perhaps you are either Anti current lineup anti Sebastian axl's  friends. or just anti Jarmo?

See the same people has whined whenever GNR members talked about their album.

Baz is a musician, axl's friend and more importantly a rock enthusiast. It wouldn't be easy for a music fan that heard something mind-blowing to pretend as it was nothing exciting.

Also it's only natural for a music fan to be more interested in music than old gossips and for an active musician to take their priority to their new album over a book some other musician if not a ghost writer wrote.

So, the problem is the place where the thread belongs. Jarmo should make new sections about DJs and play.com. :hihi:

it has nothing to do with Bach at all.

i dont need to buy clues jarmo, i used the search function and came up with all the evidence i needed in my post with the links above.

Thank God.


Anybody else who can't see the difference between talking about current GN'R related events (for example Axl singing on Baz's album) and former band members talking about Axl in order to sell more tickets/books/records need to think for a bit.

As far as I know, he doesn't talk and no, the Baz thread isn't the place.

Jesus Christ. Although I am new interms of signing up to the forum, I've been around for awhile. Sure, Jarmo has a reputation of being overbearing and impulsive, but if some of you weren't such bitchy babies, Daddy Jarmo wouldn't have to clean up your messes all the time.

Here's an idea, grow up, quit starting petty arguements, and follow the rules of the forum.

: ok:


Anyway, it's really great to hear Baz mention 'The General', which I'm really looking forward to hearing whenever it's out. With arrangements by Marco Beltrami (assuming they're still used) and drums by Brain, it has the potential to be a great song. I really dig all the work Beltrami has done and Brain of course is a very talented drummer.

To clarify a bit.

Im glad Sebastian is doing great, he is one of my favorite singers and people in music BUT


I have been waiting a long time for Chinese Democracy and I personally havent minded the wait.

I just want everything to be revealed by AXL when he is ready, no matter how many years it takes than have someone else come a long with a bunch of teasers and spoilers.

its kind of like someone telling u the ending to a movie u have been dying to see or something.

I want to find out everything when its official etc, and not from Baz promoting himself.



Sebastian is a puppet because he, like so many others are Axl's "YES" men, and don't have the balls to tell him how they really feel out of fear of not being his friend anymore.

Just listen to how Axl talked down to Sebastian when he told him to release the album. I mean Baz was just enthusiastic cause he heard amazing music and he was just trying to pep his friend up and tell him that its awesome, RELEASE IT and Axl treated him like a fucking piece of garbage by humiliating him in front of everyone.

To me that really isn't cool.

You were there?

You know, the great thing about friends is that you can joke with them and have a laugh.


You don't think Axl knows that people want to hear the music?

Yeah, the fact that Baz was willing to share that story in a joking manner should tell you that Axl didn't demean and embarass him.

Sebastian is just another puppet.

I have no problem with Sebastian promoting his album, but I think he should leave Axl's release strategies a secret.
Make up your mind.? By saying you think Baz is just another puppet, I'm guessing you mean that Axl is the PuppetMaster. ?And if that's the case then wouldn't anything that Baz says in regards to 'secret strategies' be exactly what GNR wants him to say when they pull his strings? ?::)

No you're dead wrong there, Axl can't be the Puppet Master - surely Metallica would be the Master of Puppets ?   8)

You weren't there either.

I agree with your position, doesn't sound like he was being a knob.  But speculation is speculation.  Just because it's speculation that we think is correct does not make it become no longer speculation.

but in fact we can't listen to how Axl talked to Sebastian when he told him to release the album can we?

It's Sebastian talking to the interviewer. we can't even listen to how he talkes either.
I don't  think there was anyone when he said 'everybody'.

Quote
"Do you ever get him on the phone and say "will you just put your fuckin record out already?"

Bach: I said that to him once, and it was one of the only times he bristled at me. He goes "Oh, everybody, sebastians got a great fucking idea. Hey! I should put out a record! Thanks, man what would I do without you dude...thats awesome."

Post by: The Estranged MrFlashbax on November 09, 2007, 10:42:53 PM
I think it's just that Axl just made a guess about the third album because he *believes* the first one will come out next year. I don't think it would all drop in the same year, there's no indication ever that this was/is the plan.

and unless i've missed something (quite possible), axl rose has shown no indication that he believes the first one will come out next year either..  touring doesn't count because we've all been down that road before

It  never ceases to amaze me the low level of reading comprehension on this forum



Bach said

IT WAS THE ONLY TIME AXL BRISTLED AT ME

Get your dictionaries.

Bristle is not a friendly term of endearment.

Post by: Voodoochild on November 12, 2007, 09:24:54 AM
Because it seems a bit obvious that it's not like Axl don't want to release the record. Maybe Bach didn't know all the things behind the hold up, but yet it would be clear that the band wants to release it.

Even if it was a bristle indeed, the answer seemed rather like a he was making fun of Baz. Also, don't you get mad at a friend some times and answer with sarcasm in order to just make him get a clue?

And all other forums must be picking a word out of the context in order to prove how axl and seb aren't friends.

Did axl say shut the fuck out bitch! or something to seb? No.
Ones with good comprehension would read the comments as axl rarely bristles at seb. and the closest he got was the sarcastic answer that admonished seb that axl was truly sick of hearing the same thing from everyone, which was I guess more like a yell of pain than of anger.

The interpretation of Baz's story is kind of like an ink-blot test.  Depending on your opinions of Mr. Rose and Sebastian at the time of your interpretation.

Personally, I laughed out loud when I read the line.  It's obviously a question Axl's been asked literally thousands of times.  I don't think it was condescending or nasty at all.  It was definitely sarcasm.

How you interpret that story is completely dependent on your pre-conceived notion of Axl and his friendship with Baz.

In my oipnion is the way that Axl talks, when I read it was very funny, very Axl, he has a very intelligent way to talk, I don't see any insult there, is the answer for all who have the same question, I guess.

What Baz said Axl said sounds as sarcastic as it gets.

It might have been biting sarcasm, but it sounds sarcastic nonetheless.

This is ridiculous. Some of you are making it out to be like Axl is Baz's abusive step dad. Baz simply implied that Axl snapped at him a little when he asked a stupid question. I doubt anyone was traumatized over this little exchange.

I cant believe the way some of you are acting. Whatever, Axl got mad at Sebastian for a split second and made a remark. They're friends, dont tell me that none of you havent gotten mad at one of your friends and made a little remark. It obviously wasnt that serious if Sebastian's joking about it. It happens, all friends get mad at each other every once in a while. You guys are overreacting like its a huge deal or something. Once again, you guys have to overanalyze everything and it blow it up more than it ever was.
