Fron NIN.com: Robin Finck

[alexrose]

Aaron:
I think Robin said it best himself when he wisely stated:
" I know now that when i dig in the mud, I'm gonna get dirty as hell and wish for a swim.
Then when wrapped in white linen, I'll secretly start to sweat and stink. And so it is.
By - these years - I'll suppose you're suggesting in the flesh on the planet.
What comes up for me now is consistent. The more I learn, and the greater I attune my attention with something beyond this little life of mine and yours.The more simply my way unfolds. I'm much more consciously aware of how my thoughts and actions bring immediate situation and circumstance to my life and that's hard to unlearn.
Try as might. I see the me-to-be bathed in an obvious color and dancing wild desire out loud your lawn.
A posture preluding silence." - Robin Finck

Agreed.? GNR needs musicians who "think outside the box".? ?

glad to see this thread backfire and all this support for finck.

[ppbebe]

Robins wording never fail to impress me.
There's a note of strong resolution in this statement.
well said Robin!

But what is "preluding"? 

[August 18th]

preludium, isn't that some sort of "foreplay" for classical concerts? like a warm-up or something of that manner.

[ppbebe]

Oh, a prelude!! Silly me!

I get it. So he's saying (this long) Silence preludes to something (huge).

[Where is Hassan Nasrallah ?]

aaron might also be making fun of robin.
there is no "robin rocks" here.

Wow. I hate to be having this reaction as a long time fan of NIN and Fincks mark but...that is some really amateurish poetry. Like something Mike Meyers would say on beatnick spoken word night. I am not a poet with words, but that doesn't make me not able to judge someone else's. I can't play the guitar, but I can recognize that Jimi Hendrix was a guitar god.

This is really horrible. Hopefully Axl is keeping Finck the fuck away from any lyrical input on Chinese D. Guns N' Roses is the very definition of great lyricisim and musicianship. Axl would never write something that pretentious and gay. Finck just needs to stick with the guitar. Someone needs to tell him that great poetry can be really basic in its nature, and should never sound like someone is trying to sound intelligent and poetic. He needs to be mindful of the flow and let go naturally. What a bunch of trite.

Excuse me buddha but if you call this pretentious and gay, what we should call some of your posts on dope?

Man, you find my shit pretentious and gay? I am just being me dude. Finck, as I have seen interviews with him from years back, doesn't talk like that. And dude, I have never made one post about dope. And if I did, then I don't remember, so it never really happened.

No sir. I'm just saying Robin might secretly sweat it out, which might stink but his sweat is no more pretentious and gay than your shit is.
A real Master of whatever field would say,
"Forget the sissy words such as "pretentious" n  "gay", or forget about your art."

dude, it's ok dude, we can't all be like Rimbaud dude, ok dude ? nice dude. 

True But that titanic guy made it. Judging from the film the Rimbaud dude was a pretentious gay.

[Nytunz]

Bla bla bla! Robin Finck is a damn good Guitarplayer! and a Poet! There is more about Robin then the eye can see!

[Eva GnRAxlRosette]

I enjoy robin's style of writing... and writers don't 'walk around' speaking like they write.  Does Axl go around talking like "It's hard to hold a candle...." 

anyhow yeah, an opportunity for some "Robin Love"
