 ... AXL Rose tearing into a steak at the Old Homestead ...

that's the end of what's in the Post ... below is just some info on the steakhouse

Old Homestead Steakhouse
56 Ninth Ave., New York, NY 10011

PRICE RANGE:? $$$-$$$$? Expensive to Very Expensive
CUISINE:? American Traditional, Steakhouse

Profile
The definitive old-school Meatpacking District steakhouse, complete with a tacky cow sculpture out front, the now-shopworn Old Homestead has seen better days.? But it still serves up some of the best steaks in town, and the experience is inimitable.? Who knows, with the resurgence of this neighborhood as a destination for diners and revelers, the Old Homestead may someday soon be rewarded for hanging on all these years. - Steven A. Shaw

Extra
Old Homestead was one of the first American steakhouses to serve Japan's fabled Kobe beef.


Gypsy comment:? That reviewer said "the Old Homestead may someday soon be rewarded for hanging on all these years".? Hopefully, GNR fans will soon be rewarded for hanging on all these years too!!!

Steak is good shit.

[gnrrock]

Must be nice...

Lets all pray that he accidentally left a cd full of demos next to the bottle of steak sauce.

[Christos AG]

Old Homestead Steakhouse starts now.

[BLS-Pride]

Sounds damn good to me..

Ok, that was funny.

Maybe he played the disc for the Grillmaster in order to ensure his steak was prepared "black and blue" (best way to have a steak, btw, in my opinion)

Axl still being in NYC could be a good thing, though.  Since Sanctuary is also in NYC - and it does kind of seem like Merck is a bit busy.. you know, not telling radio stations to stop playing songs and stuff.  Maybe he.. has his hands full with business dealings with the red headed one?  (Not even gonna use the recluse term this time - too many public outings for that to apply, for now)

Its all pure speculation, of course.

Let's all hope thats true. I could see that happening cause usually everyone is up Mercks ass and we get a bulshit responce from him. So maybe this time is actually the time.. I know im ready for a little GnR ass kicking.

[DoubleTalkingJive]

I need to hang out in the City more. ? ? ?Damn to now Axl is so close.

Dark - that is a good speculation

what he said

[GypsySoul]

Axl still being in NYC could be a good thing, though.? Since Sanctuary is also in NYC

Just as a point of info for everybody:? The Post tends to post things days or weeks or months even after it happens, so since they didn't say when Axl was actually sighted, I'd tend to believe it happened around the same time he was here for the Richard show and that it doesn't necessarily mean he's still here.?

[ironfin]

Stirling Sound (the famous mastering studio) is in NY. Perhaps Axl is there getting the album mastered. I believe that Appetite was also mastered there.

Here's hoping

[Axlfreek]

at we know axl's getting his protien.

[WAR41]

Well fellas, because of this NY Post small article we can assume that Axl is still in NY.  This could potentially be a good thing or a bad thing.

Axl came to NY for his bday and the Victorias Secret thing that Richard was playing at.  At least that is what is believed at this point to be the case.  Now if you think for a second, where is GNR's band management located?  Thats right, Sanctuary (and Merck in particular) are located in NYC.  Now in my opinion this could mean one of two things (or both).

1) Axl is in NYC planning a statement, discussing the release of Chinese Democracy, press conferences, etc. with Merck and other top management.

2) Axl is furious with this leak and it trying to get to figure out who leaked his music out. 

I am curious to know what others may think about this.  Any thoughts?

[ironfin]

I think CD is being mastered at Stirling Studio's, NY

[godiva]

Or he really enjoys NY. He stated many times it is one of his fav cities in the world. Maybe a little vacation before getting back to work? Little time off?

come on man thats no conspiracy theory....

nah I know that could definitely be the case already.  Just seems to me that with what is going on right now that Axl would be spending some time with his management.  Even if originally just visiting was his only intent. 

Hey ironfin, why do you think it is being mastered at Stirling?  Was there an article or website that I missed at some point?

[Neemo]

Maybe he's with Lawyers and Management cuz of Radios stations playing the songs? Maybe mastering CD, Maybe Hanging out with Richard, Maybe site seeing Who knows, I personally don't care, I don't want Paparazzi action on Axl, that's just dumb, So what he ate a fucking steak, big deal maybe he went there while all flights were grounded last week. We don't know exactly what day that happened do we?

[Layne Staley's Sunglasses]

Steak is good.  He needs his strength for a possible album release/tour.

[Gaymo, the Hobbit]

Lets all pray that he accidentally left a cd full of demos next to the bottle of steak sauce.

lol, i had a good laugh. thanx
