Axl - Legal Press Release

[axlroses]

Should I assume that we will get a press release about the tour and album once these "loose" ends get taken care of?

To be clear this is a counter claim and a result of them suing Axl not just once but twice.

When information is not provided everyone complains yet when detailed information is offered up there are a large number of people who try to second guess it.

This will not delay the new album - quite the opposite - tying up these loose ends allows us to get on with it

/wonders what will be happening in the VR camp over the coming days 

[speed_stone]

I smell some Bullshit!
Axl keeps contradicting himself.
He said many times recently that he hasn't seen Slash since 1995 and now all the sudden there is a suprise visit?
Sure... ?

if you want to talk about contradictions, your man slash is the epitome.
i'm sick of your negative bullshit.

I can't help but feel a bit stupid when reading these comments by management. Just like when Mysteron wanted us to go and bash some reporter for not liking the leaks. Geez, we're not 15 anymore.

I don't feel stupid but it surely makes them look stupid.

Stupid for issuing a press release as an answer to two lawsuits he feels are wrong?

They sued him for something that Axl's side says was a clerical error. Duff and Slash's lawsuit claims Axl was "suffering an apparent attack of arrogance and ego".

Now when he gets his side of the story out, he looks stupid?

Hey remember when we were told that "outside influences" were holding up CD?

So was this the outside influence..the convo took place outside (between Slash and Axl)?

okay just trying to add some humor to this so don't mind me

[DeN]

thx Mysteron.

and thx Axl, i had an amazing good laugh, imagining Slash & co.

hope this story is true, i think it is, people will see Axl is not all
black, and Slash & Duff are not all white.

Yeah.. We want DETAILED INFORMATION ON THE FUCKING BAND. Not a fucking law suit.

AFUCKINMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i dont even know why any of yall care about this crap. WE/I WANT A GOD DAMN SINGLE!

Agreed. Car dealership lawsuits. Ex-bandmember lawsuits. We don't care ............................!

Merck - Get the Drift . . . We want information about CD . . . everything else is crap. "Everyone complains . . ." what a jerk.

[Gaymo, the Hobbit]

It seems very childish and unnecesary to me.

[Allman]

Because it's written as if it came from a Highschool

Why?

Sure, it may seem childish, but it also looks like he's just playing the game that started when he was sued....

There is more at stake than the clerical error . . . ?or this would be gone already

[Booker Floyd]

They sued him for something that Axl's side says was a clerical error

But didnt they release a statement concerning this a year ago?

[speed_stone]

i really hope slash really said that about matt. i really can't stand that scumbag. he's the biggest backstabber... fuck him..

matt is a coward, did you ever read that story matt offered about axl chasing him and his dog around with a chair and matt didn't dare to go back to the studio? nuff said.

Thanks Mysteron, and thanks Merk! ?That last statement, about tying up loose ends, makes me feel a lot better. ?

[superloconoriega]

For something to be delayed it has to have a date ... think about it.

[BLS-Pride]

It's great Axl gets his side of the story out and shit. But that Merck responce was lame and made him sound like a fuckin prick.

"When information is not provided everyone complains yet when detailed information is offered up there are a large number of people who try to second guess it."

Yeah considering the fanbase has been asking for information for years.. not on a law suit but on the band and Axl himself.. music wise.

Thanks Mysteron tho.. good lookin bro.
