Axl's Vision

[nesquick]

I keep hearing that the original members left because Axl had a vision for Guns n' Roses and they didn't want to follow that vision. What was this vision that Axl had for Guns n' Roses?

3 guitar players. What a mess

Its slash's version

what a load of shit.? 'what is it your broke the real band up for?"? ? i believe it was slash who chose to leave on his own terms.? ?blaming axl like that, pathetic.? ? ?Sorry Slashole, the real band just put on a kickass performance tonight and you are in velvet revolver trying to make another mediocre album.?

 im sorry but another mediocre CD is better than no CD, i mean hell , slash has guessed and created his own cds, quite a few more than axl has managed in the past 12years.slash has made albums, toured guessed on peoples stages and albums, so i dont think you can take the michael out of slash when axl has made like "alledgely" 36 or so songs, with no albums, just one song on a soundtrack and 4 leaks and a coupla live tracks, im not bashin axl on this reply, but you cannot take the piss out slash when he has done far more than axl.

good god give it a rest

rumor was he was gonna go industrial...in fact Duff actually mentioned that in an interview after he left GnR....Vrenna and Robin had been brought in and he didn't like the direction so he quit...slash quit for a different reason I'm sure...I'm thinking the whole Gilby/Tobias mess and Matt was fired cuz he and axl didn't see eye to eye over the same thing, i think he wanted axl to do whatever it took to get slash back...Axl said fuck you...gilby was fired or quit cuz he woulda had no creative imput....all that is just my interpretation of course....my memory may be wrong and my facts prolly certainly are, but like i said that's my interpretation

Axl's vision was Oh My God, Silkworms, etc...
It's friggin' obvious he changed his mind after the lukewarm reception of these songs and decided to make some genuine music again...
I'm glad he came around, it's just sad that he had to go through this phase in his life. I'm sure Duff & Slash could've reconsiled themselves with Axl's current vision: songs like "better", "twat" or "the blues".

First axl wants to have a successful "comeback" and a cd held in such praise as compared to beatles "white albim" and pink floyds "brickwalls", keekee....then axl wants to start a record label with Merck and open a studio in las vegas to sign new hardcore rock bands....he also wants to co-own and operate a Casino hotel (Robert DeNiro Style with little brother stu as the Joe Pesci sidekick) Hes sometimes jealous of  the "donald" trump. He is planning a very very fancy prestigious resteraunt there to compete against "Chef Ramsey" then hes gonna marry a super model put a bun in her oven and retire with some little axls running around the world....at least thats what I think his "vision is" keekee

Rings somewhat hollow.
Is there any meaning in life or is life just an empty dream? Makes me wonder.....

I have to know...

what is with the "keekee" thing?

[Bodhi]

Axl was a big fan of NIN, Public Enemy, and the Grunge movement...he wanted to update the bands sound and slash wanted to record another album like the previous ones...that is where the main problem started

  Think axl with black, heavy makeup 

axl tried to write songs, what were like on AFD, but they didn?t sound so alive. So guess he wanted to be like the new EMObands. God, hope the new gn?r doesn?t start to play more emo...
