In the Lisbon press release, he said a release date w/in the next few months.  

That would be June 30th.

I don't see it happening.

Why does 'a few' means 3?

Axl also said 'see you next summer' at RIR3

The man clearly has severe psychological problems at this stage - nothing he says should be taken too serioulsy, i honestly wonder if he has any idea what's going on - not only in the GNR camp but in the world at large.

I don't think he's that mad!

I hope he isn't either

But lets look at the facts

He has spent 10 years hidding away - flatly refuses to talk to his fans, cancels shows and then lies that he never authorised them

This man is not all with it - remember he never was and has admitted psychological problems in the past

He is not behaving rationally - but it goes even beyond that - he is acting very strangely

I think the reason is because he's ill - i would be open to other explanations of his derenaged behaviour.

To use the words of Axl, someone thinks they know what's going on but really have no idea.

No.  A few means 2.  He's overdue again.  Doesn't bother me this time, I'm use to it.

Can't help but laugh a little cause this time it's Axl who's frustrated over the whole thing.  It's done and he has to screw around with legal issues.  Kind of like sitting in court and the federal building gets blown up isn't it?

Uh no.... If Axl said "In a couple of months" that would mean two.

A couple = 2

A few= 3

The thread starter is right.

Got to give a month as a token, so I would say even 4 months could be considered in the few statement. Beyond that, and he should have said "In a half a year" or " In a year"....or "In a couple years"

...or "In a FEW years"

...goddamnit, we really are never going to get this album are we?

Is that a shot at me? Or a shot at Axl?

If Axl knew what was going on it wouldn't be 11 years since the last GNR album of new material - some bands have churned out 5-6 albums in that time - the band had only been together for 2 years by the time Afd went out.....

'A few' is a very subjective phrase. I would take it to mean anything including 3, 4, 5, or 6 months.

There's not much point debating what 'a few' means.

Typical of Axl's answers regarding CD.

When he said see you next summer, I think he meant it. I can accept that something happened in the space of a year which affectd things. However, when he says a few months, I expect to hear something within 5 or 6. If I don't I'll genuinely be annoyed.

I hope he can show he means something when he says it at least once.

I really don't think we should be playing psychologist here. Unless you talk to him in his daily life, you have no idea how he's behaving.

Maybe he is actually better than usual because he doesn't have to put up with the public. Not releasing an album is not what i consider to be deranged behavior.

And i wouldn't say he's hiding away, just because you don't here about him, doesn't mean he is hiding away. It's like he said before, he goes out all of the time. And you make it sound like he has alzheimers, how would you know that he has no idea of what's going on if you have never talked to him personally? your psycho analysis seems pretty off base here, not saying he doesn't have problems because he has admitted before that he does, hell we all have some kind of problems.

Great post. What exactly does a few mean then? since you seem to think you are the human dictionary. Read motherfunkers post, he pretty much gets what a few means.





Problem solved.

Who knows what 'a few' means. Its pretty obvious that Axl works on his own terms and his own timescale. The guy is practically nocternal, sleeps during the day and goes out if at all, at night!

The only good thing is that something has to happen eventually, in this day and age hes not going to be able to keep it locked up forever, somehow it will get out. Someday!
