Mike reread your posts and others. you're not making any sense than just being an ass.

You just hate this band don't you? Without them, we won't see CD.

I have never said I hate this band.. i said I never got to know the band the way you do others.. I want to hear cd and want to own it but for me personally it doesn't matter who is in the band playing the instruments.. Axl can change the band around again and people will love that band as well.. So as long as axl calls it gnr and is in the band people will like it

if you are a gnr fan and the band changes around but one guy stays behing (axl rose) you most likely want to hear something new because axl rose is still in the band.. So basically my interest so far is because it's gnr and axl rose..

I didn't just like dave kushner from vr.. I didn't like hear a song or see a video and get all into him.. I grew to like his playing because I went to shows and bought an album and saw videos hear tons of interviews..

I just can't be into a band of guys that never release any material for the band they joined..

Whether you like any member individually or not is none of my concern. I have fav bands that I don't know each members name.
But face it. If the bassist who made the music together and was the bandmaster for rehearsal left, the band would have to reconstruct everything, from finding the right person. How hard it would be for them and the fans. How long it would take.

If you understood a fans feeling, you couldn't say that.

Why would that be scary??

[mikegiuliana]

I don't know how long it would take..  it wasn't anything to really think about.. Sometimes I forget people are really into the members of this band.. Maybe I look through history of gnr and see how they were able to find replacement either for good or short term in a hell of a lot less time then now.. I saw them live and they were all good musicians just never got into them as a band rather then a singer with a familiar name.. I am sure many people here are younger and new gnr fans first then found the older band later

For me I think I see it as losing new gnr would be like missing something I never had or never was.. it's like when you see bucket head as a former member of gnr.. I don't see it because to me he never was a member of gnr.. i could have blinked and his time would have passed.. There's many way to view it.. being I did grow up liking gnr in the 80's I just might have a harder time to just be a fan of each new member because it seems un natural.. If some kid got into van halen in 86 david lee roth might be nothing to him and sammy everything to him when he thinks of van halen..

I am sure there are people on this board that watch their bootlegs shows weekly, and play one of the few songs on their i-pod or I-tunes religiously.. maybe they read all the interviews or see the side shows the guys play.. I just don't so I don't have an ties or close feel to the new guys.. if axl had said I formed a new verison of the new gnr it wouldn't phase me

At the end of the day,.....or century at this point..,   it couldn't matter at all of who is in this band except the God,  Axl Rose.
I saw the Rock in Rio show,  me from Santiago, and a show in america,   and unlike most of the posters here that keep calling it a failed tour,   it was the greatest rock shows i have ever witnessed!    there was no Insync, NIN tape playback bullshit,  but balls to the wall,  fuk ups and all,  (we cant help tommy fukkin up Oh my god in Rio and also his other blunders on great songs),    but everyones eyes were on Axl all the way,  .....even when he left the stage for bugethead/ robin's  meek solo's.     Everyone waited for Axl to kick some shit into the show.   that's all.    He can have any circus act play next to him,   and he will be the Clown that everyone wants to see and pay their money for!     We love him!    otherwise you would not be here,.....right?

Thanks RainX and chineseblues for those two videos. There addition to my collection is greatly appreciated

Cheers RainX and chineseblues.

Left. Yes, I would. why not?
As I've stated in the jungle, Chris and Brain are my idols. 
Rumour has it that Chris deleted himself but he will be back, I believe.
the God?  I'm yet to get religion lets alone idol worship.

Again you're knowingly begging the question.
How much you are indifferent to the band members except Axl or not is irrelevant to the matter.

I guess A fan of 'only Tommy' would worry if he's still in the inactive band or not little more than you do, while I personally don't get the mentality fully. I wouldn't call myself a fan of some band unless at least I like the music particular to it, which is, as it were,  the musical chemistry of the band. but oh well, it's still not the point.

The point is if you really wanna see your 'God,  Axl Rose', you better pray for his people to stay. Any Member's departure obviously wouldn't speed the project but hinder. it wouldn't be easy to find a right one to build the band chemistry anew with cos he got to be a trusty on all fronts. internal conflict is the last thing the band needs.

See your posts are so off the mark.
Your mind numbing dead horse should have been posted in the right section.

the person who sent me this one said "last one" so i think that's it - hopefully we'll get an audio boot of one of those shows

Thanks for all those videos.

Those video's were killer. Dave Pirner still sounds great. I hope they continue to tour. They sounded great. Tommy imo really fits in with those guys. I really cant wait to get the new album. I have always been a big fan of SA.

So wait - you want Tommy to stay in Soul Asylum and tour with them?

I certainly hope that isnt the case if something really is going on behind the scenes...however if Tommy does a considerable amount of more shows with SA it would be an inclination to the opposite.
