AXL SPEAKS!!!

[younggunner]

If the album doesnt come out this year and they just release a single to hold us over i really hope they dont play any other news songs besides the single at any shows they might play in.

[Carlos_f_Rose]

Quoting Axl in Madagascar....  13 years are nothing  and "Its never too late"

[Dont Try Me]

the great thing is.........when he said that the band is gonna get out soon........that means that he won't take that long to finish the other songs listed..........this is sooo fucking positive..............bring on GUNS N ROSES

only a single would already be awesome in 2006!!!

[Carlos_f_Rose]

I think only a single would be dissapointing.... but anyway who knows what to expect.

[Lord Kayoss]

Axl appears and speaks on the friday 13th...
about 13 songs...
that took 13 years....
and 13 millions...

for the supersticious ( not my case) 13 is a good luck number...

Maybe the album will come out the next time Friday the 13th rolls around.  There are usually two a year.

October, also June 13 is a tuesday.

seriously though i doubt Axl bided his time till a party for a different band was held on the 13th of a month so he could vaguely release some info to his fanbase

Everything doesn't have to be in riddles. Maybe he said we should hear something "this year" because he doesn't know exactly when he will finish the album. but it looks like sometime this year.

[McGann]

For Axl, this is
A rather precise statement,
In my opinion.

Far, far better than
"Don't know if soon is the word"
And ol' "Live your life."

Also encouraged
That he listed song titles
(And named a new one!)

It seems to me, too,
That he has a long-term plan
(Multiple albums

And tour, perhaps)
Overall, I'm quite happy.
Thanks, Uncle Axl.

Also, it should be noted, that the public lovefest between Slash and Axl--both using "love" to describe the other, within one month's period, is intriguing--to say the least.

maybe it way just a sidekick?
but i guess axl "loves" slash guitarplaying, but i doubt that has the same feeling for his personality.

[chineseblues]

does the "nearly" done not alarm anybody?

No, not really. His whole vibe concerning CD seems to have matured. He could have said something much worse than 'nearly done'(soon still isnt the word, it'll be ready when its ready, I'm not concerned with that right now,etc.). It was very interesting how he actually said how many songs would be on CD, and also naming a song title we hadn't heard before. Those comments were obviously aimed towards us, because the general public doesn't give a fuck about how many songs are on CD, or what he thinks about Izzy and Slash.

Its about damn time, you came around to the positive side 

[marknroses]

I don't see anything significant here (except a healthier attitude of his former GNR mates) - but I will say I'm damn happy and proud that Axl is coming out of the woodwork. Remember, he didn't appear anywhere public between January 1994 and May 2000. Which makes me even more concerned for the guy.
Remember that he is bi-polar. He can come out and act cordial with people, then the next minute you won;t find him (remember Philly 2002?). He seems to come out when its convenient for him, then disappears for 6 months to a year. If he reappears in the next 2 months, then this is truly news and something is brewing in the nu-GNR world.

Perhaps he'll collaberate with a rock band. Im glad that Papa Roach wants Axl to collaberate, but wait a minute - didn;t Weezer also want to collaberate with Axl back in 2002? What ever happened to that? Axl also failed to collaberate in the past with Ice-T, U2 and Sebastian Bach. He did to his credit collaberate with Don Henley, Gilby Clarke, Steve Jones and Alice Cooper. Hopefully this time Axl means what he says.

I don't understand Axl's plans anyways. Wasn't he supposed to have 3 new albums and a album of b-sides? Now plans have shifted. It would have also been nice if one of his bandmates came out with him, Tommy or Dizzy or Richard. When he goes out solo, it doesn't display the best camaraderie in nu-GNR. At least VR spend time off-stage with each other.

GNR needs to act like a team again, and I mean off stage and off-studio if we want some real news again - that this is a band ready to put out this music they have made in the cover of the four walls of their studio.

I'm looking forward to seeing the team together.

1+3+1+3=8 
Remember the number on his jerseys. #26..... it could mean the 6th of june (tue)
No I don't think the dates are fixed yet.

[estrangedpaul]

Hmm, wasn't someone sure 2005 would be the year because it was "14 Years" since the release of Use Your Illusion. Maybe Axl wants to release the album when he thinks its ready rather than to for some cryptic superstitous reason.

[kaasupoltin]

What does it matter, I'm sure CD will be out this year and that's all I need

[shotgun_blue]

WOW!- its exploded on here! With damn good reason too, everyone has to be a little happier after this news. just a quick point, Axl is not an 'average guy' he's my god and i'm guessing many more on here! I'm an average guy because I can't sing, entertain and write Like he can (no one can!)- I also cant buy a lambourgini gallardo or get anywhere near super models (let alone shag one) like he can!

[liquidvirus]

WOW!!!
I've never been this shocked by the news on this site....Axl fuckin Rose baby! I guess any sort of music would be good, when we've waited so long.
Hopefully this means a proper commercial release and not just more touring....Please, No more touring without releasing an album.

[Lord Kayoss]

What does it matter, I'm sure CD will be out this year and that's all I need

You can hope for both of us.

I'm still the President of the "believe it when I see it" club.

[Mikkamakka]

Fuckin brilliant news.

I can't believe that someone would moan when he says they've got 26 songs nearly done!

That's two fucking albums. After all the talk of "there is no album" and "He can't finish a song"

BTW, when you say "26 are almost done", usually means you've completed a load and you've got some finishing touches ? on a few more to do.

It doesn't literally mean they've got 26 songs and their still working on all of them.?

It's coming mutherfuckers.... and props to sp1at who did tell us to look out for this article as Axl had spoken to a RS journalist.

@#$%Funker

Thanks for the good laugh.

BTW he didn't say shit. Maybe 2006 is the year, maybe 2007, maybe 3050 (3+5=8!!!).

[horsey]

here's a qoute'little note.
your like a hotdog without the mustard ,you better ketchup !
axl might have been silent but now he isn't.so that can only be good.speech speech axl cheers to you !
rock -on !

nothing signficant? LOL. Another MNR gem.

We were just updated on the status of CD and a plan to release some new music.

I think that quite significant.

[ppbebe]

  So you like FKD/sf too? Tanks for the good laugh to you too.

Please, No more touring without releasing an album.

Amen to that. for gods, the fans and the bands sake.
