GNR Legal Update

For the third time in 12 months, Los Angeles-based Cleopatra Records has prevailed in court against GUNS N' ROSES frontman Axl Rose, who tried to sue the label in June 2004 for releasing an album entitled "Hollywood Rose: The Roots of Guns N' Roses". The album featured the singer and other members of the infamous rock band during their pre-GN'R days. During the earlier part of the case, Rose lost his bid for an injunction to prevent the label from releasing demos of the band he formed prior to GUNS N' ROSES with ex-guitarist Izzy Stradlin, also known as Jeffrey Isabell. Later, in November 2004 and April 2005, the court made two related rulings in favor of Cleopatra and against Rose on all of his other claims, and entered summary judgment in favor of Cleopatra.
This week, on May 23, 2005, Judge Gary Allen Feess, Judge of the United States District Court for the Central District of California, awarded Cleopatra Records' request for attorneys' fees and costs in the amount of $24,176.38.

I honestly think it was stupid to try and stop it... fuck he wont release CD atleast let us get some old stuff for the mean time, plus I think he has bigger more important lawsuits going on to bother with a small label releasing some old songs.

Good, he deserved to lose. It's only a pity they didn't hire more expensive lawyers.

But Axl wasn't the only member of Hollywood Rose and he definitely wasn't the one that paid for the original recordings to be made.

Truth ! ... I think was Chris Weber who paid for it.
And the album is ok man ! I got it and I think is good to have a piece of history of GNR.
I don't know what's the big deal.

$24,000 to someone such as Axl Rose isn't that much money. He just signed a $20,000,000 publishing deal.

Np but he still helped to write those songs. So he SHOULD have some say as to whether they get released or not.

They have the right to do it because the person who owned the recordings decided to sell them. Which is why it is idiotic for Axl to file frivolous lawsuits attempting to prevent the album's release.
Axl probably doesn't want you to download any GNR demos or live bootlegs that were ever made ... better be sure to delete all your demos and bootlegs. After all, if you follow your logic, you should never listen to anything Axl made that he doesn't want you to listen to. Don't forget to never listen to One In A Million, since Axl doesn't want that song to be available anymore, either.

Right, then who would be buying it? The fans of Gilby or of Chris whatever? Who was this article targeted at?
Remember the reason for his filing a suit against the GH release? Wasn't it basically he didn't want the fans to spend money on what he considered unsatisfactory. Then how about this one?
You might be on the side of the issue, if not of the other.
