Fall to Pieces

[Doc Emmett Brown]

This thread keeps going and going and going...  

I havent it heard it yet (waiting for June 8th), but I would like to know if FTP sounds as if it could be on Lies?  
What I mean is, does it have that raw acoustic feel to it?  I love that sort of stuff.  Oh, and there's no piano in it, right?  Just guitar?

[younggunner]

and right now Fall To Pieces sounds like a boring ass Nickleback song with a Slash solo.

Na, lets not get crazy here. The song is very good. And vr is a lot better than most of the shit out there.

Def wouldnt come off Lies. Its more of an illusion type song. Its just guitar. Slash really shines on the track. If you ask me, if they took their time with this song it could have been a classic but its still an excellent song.

A throw back? Oh you got that right, they lamely ripped off the gnr into.
You wanted to best, well they didnt make it.....etc etc

how fucking orginal is that  

Yeah, they ripped themselves off...

So clueless...

Good to see your criticism is limited to something as trivial as that    Of course now youll go ahead and struggle to pick apart the actual performance, but youre just as transparent and childish as ever.

I already gave my view on this song and I will on the others when I have time.

Just a thought here Dave, will you be attending the VR show in Boston 5/29?  GNR is undoubtedly your favorite band, and seeing as how 2 very prominent former members and 1 other former member will be in your area, I was wondering if your bitterness will prevent you from attending or will you witness the closest thing you'll ever see to AFD era Guns?

It's your basic formula power ballad, albeit with very a very good
guitar player and a helluva frontman with an emotional investment in the song.  Not much of an accoustic feel..

No keyboards in the live setting..

I believe the subject of your and Falcons posts was "the live show" (because I dont believe that intro has anything to do with "Fall To Pieces").

learn how to read and comprehend. It?s not too hard.

 

As for your opinions on the other songs, dont bother, because theyve already been given a million times.

Each review will be "ITs average, their nothing special, it sounds like STP alternative rock, they dont hold a candle to maddy or silkworms, lmao slash is scuh a lier@! Maddy blows them away cuz their avrage, etc., etc.".  This should fuel another 300 posts for you.  Same goes for Younggunner.  "Im a fan of Vr, their good until the big boys come out to play.  Each song is average.  Theyve got good guitars...i mean the guitars are great but...Vr will rock in a very average way, but Gnr will rock the world!"    We already know...

By the way, seems like youre paying an awful lot of attention to a band that youre boycotting...downloading bootlegs, making numerous posts about them on several message boards, etc...

[younggunner]

Falcon, how was the crown on the floor when you went? A lot of moshing or no?

[dave-gnfnr2k]

Booker and Falcon people like you are just trembling after hearing this bootlegs since you have heard how mediocre these VR songs are.

Yeah...especially since I havent heard the bootlegs..  

And you continue to look more silly with each post...

[Falcon]

Very violent.  Fights, moshing and surfing.  Mostly toward the front if, subsiding as you get farther back on the floor.

FTP gave us a break for about 3 1/2 minutes, then they hit us with "Big Machine" and "Set Me Free" and all hell broke loose. ...again.

[younggunner]

Same goes for Younggunner.  "Im a fan of Vr, their good until the big boys come out to play.  Each song is average.  Theyve got good guitars...i mean the guitars are great but...Vr will rock in a very average way, but Gnr will rock the world!"    We already know...

I am a fan of VR. I have always been a fan of stp. I have been listening to stp longer than i have been listening to gnr. And I have always loved slash and duff and what they did with gnr.

And yes thats how i feel. new gnr to me is the greatest band in the world. i dont think any band nevermind vr is as good as them. But that doesnt mean i dont listen to music other than gnr. VR will and does rock. Im gonna go see them when they hit ny. Its gonna be a great live show, with some of my favorite players.

They will rock but yes gnr will rock the world. thats my opinion of course but to me gnr has a lot more potential than vr.

As for my opinions on the material and band...its not much difdferent than you my friend. The way you just described my take on vr is the same way you are with gnr. You go to great lengths against them but always throw in a few "but i still like them"....

I defend what i think is an unfair gnr review of the band or axl...u say im an axl loyalist who cant take a negative review....yet when there is a negative vr articel you give us a journalism 101 class and go to great lenghts to dismiss the article. Not the same with gnr though...strange...


Thanks falcon. Im going to nyc. Ill be up front i just wanna enjoy the show. its gonna be fun... Im not much into moshing. If buckethead comes maybe i will feel more comy in moshing....

[Falcon]

Booker and Falcon people like you are just trembling after hearing this bootlegs since you have heard how mediocre these VR songs are.  

I was actually in KC to hear the songs for myself, feel the energy emmitted from a well oiled five piece rock and roll band.   Read my review on this very board, it was quite detailed....It's not all emoting fanboy blather, an objective recounting of the nights events if you will.

No boots needed here Dave.

[Top-Hatted One]

How about we stop talking about FTP like it's the only song on the album and talk about the brilliance of "Do It For The Kids"

Sorry guys, I know replying to my own post is bad board etiquette but I just realized my question to Dave was shortsighted to say the least.

I somehow forgot Dave wasn't a big fan of AFD era GNR and suddenly remembered he also considers Coldplay a rock band.

With those 2 facts in mind, an educated guess would say a VR show might frighten a person (not naming names mind you) who held similar tastes.

I seem to have answered my own question now haven't I?

Thats the most stupid song title ever... The song is good though

You also forgot that Dave isnt really a GNR fan so much as he is an Axl fan, and that his opinions concerning ex-members are bizarre and irrational to say the least.  Asking him a question requiring even a modicum of common sense or objectivity is futile.

Booker dude, if you think Dave is childish, and discussing with him is pointless and futile, why do you bother. Just let the guy love Axl, is he harming you in any way? Man, youre fucking bitter  

[Booker Floyd]

Booker dude, if you think Dave is childish, and discussing with him is pointless and futile, why do you bother.

Good question, dude.  However, dude, lets not play stupid and act as if all he does is just "love Axl".  He posts plenty of inane, negative bullshit pertaining to anything non-Axl.  I already know the response: "But Booker, dude, youre negative too..."  Im not even going to get into that discussion, Ill just say that its beside the point, because youre pretending that Dave is just a poor victim who gets picked on for no reason.  Well, if you believe that, youre even more clueless than he is.  And if you think observing and commenting on his bullshit is "bittnerness," then youre once again very mistaken, dude.  

[Acquiesce]

I am really loving Fall To Pieces. This song is definitely a grower. The more I listen to it, the more I fall in love with it. Slash's guitar work is excellent as usual, but I think Scott deserves some props for his excellent vocals.

I didnt say he gets picked for no reason. He gets picked because he posts that he thinks GNR is better than VR and that The Blues is better than FTP and shit like this. Hes posting his opinions, which happen to be different from the majority here. So what? BUT in the other hand, the same way you bitch about him posting "negative bullshit", thats what you do on about 50% of your posts, the other 50% are for slamming Dave. And Im not pretending dave is the victim, and Im not defending him, its just that you find every opportunnity to slam him and his "Axl worship". And its becoming repetitive and boring, DUDE

I find Dave's constant comparing of VR's material never being as good a nuGN'R boring DUDE.
