Quote from Susan Kay's novel THE PHANTOM describes Axl

[Annie]

I have become so haunted by The Phantom of the Opera that I keep finding ways to relive the story. The very best novel is THE PHANTOM by Susan Kay.There is a quote that describes the creative process that gave me tremendous insight as to why CHINESE DEMOCRACY has taken so long to Be released.  ......" But for me dawn was the time of inspiration. I could not remember a period of my life when an unfinished building had not been my reason for waking, eating...breathing. It was only when a contract was completed that I felt dissatisfaction creeping upon me, a sense of loss that was almost bereavement. Erik understood that. Erik  understood things that most boys never glimpse, but right from the beginning the depth of his passion to create made me fear for him. In my mind there was always the uneasy knowledge that one day there would inevitably be the great commission, the glorious challenge to which he would give every ounce of his being and from which he could not bear to part, the beautiful, full-term child of his imagination that he would kill to possess.

pretty cool insight Annie...
i get what you are saying

the great commission, the glorious challenge to which he would give every ounce of his being and from which he could not bear to part, the beautiful, full-term child of his imagination that he would kill to possess.

i'm sure the creative process itself is very satisfying to Axl and the band...
i do believe however that the completion and release of CD will not be an end..
but rather a beginning... and that they will realize much satisfaction in its consumption

cool quote ?
