Dear HTGTH,

  I didn't put this in the other threads because I figured it was new.  I read about the dj up in Philly trashing Axl.  I sent an e-mail to the assistant program manager at the station.  Long story short, Axl may be on WMMR tonight during Matt Cord's 7-11? shift.  I've attached the e-mail response I got from an e-mail I sent out earlier today.  You can listen to WMMR on-line at WMMR.com.   

 
Brian,

Thanks for your email.  I love getting passionate, educated
emails from
listeners.  As part of the conversation on the air this morning,
Matt
Cord who does nights here at WMMR made some of the same points
that you
did.  Pierre's very protective of this town and the rock fans in
it.
He's as passionate a rock fan as anyone and just wants
Philadelphia to
get an explanation that is acceptable.  Hopefully we will all be
getting
one tonight as Axl may be calling Matt during his show.  Right
now, all
we have is the memory of being stood up by Axl and Guns that
December
night some years ago.  And no one, not even Axl has ever
addressed it.
So by default (right or wrong) he's gotten the blame all this
time.
Hopefully we'll get some great information soon and this wound
will
heal, then we can get back to the business of hearing and
celebrating
Guns and Roses - old and new.

Take care.

Chuck Damico
WMMR Assistant Program Director

Chuck,

  I've heard 2nd-hand that Mr. Pierre the dj's been insulting
Axl and
GNR. 
This is really unnecessary and in the long-run will hurt your
radio
station.
  Axl is what rock & roll needs so badly right now, a good,
swift kick
in
the ass!  I was at the Hammerstein on May 12th, and it was
absolutely
amazing!  Philly should be thankful they didn't get the '02
version of
Guns,
because the '06 incarnation is 10 times "Better."  I'm sick as
fuc!
listening to people slag off on Axl because they live in the
past.  The
new
material, of which all we've heard are live versions and old
demos, is
still
great stuff.  (There Was a Time, Better, and IRS once finalized
will
blow
you away, as will The Blues and Madagascar)

  Nobody knows why Axl didn't show in Philly, was it his fault?
Clear
Channel's??  I don't know.  All I know is that time heals all
wounds,
and if
you want to see the best damn rock band out there today, you'll
see Guns
N'
Fuc!in Roses.

Sincerely,
Brian in Delaware :/

 
 

[Better]

if he does go on, which is extremely unlikely, he wont give an explanation why there was no show. he had the chance to explain it on trunks show, but hedged the question.

[Dr. Blutarsky]

Wasn't WMMR going to have Axl on last week supposedly? Axl really should come clean on Philly (if he can legally) and put it behind him.

[NickNasty]

'if he can legally' being the point...he can't give CC or anyone else associated with the 02 tour legal leverage without risking alot of money for the himself.

[GnR-NOW]

i was driving back today, i was in ny last night for the show, and that dj pierre starts ripping guns n roses.  not to sound like an asshole, yes not showing up was wrong, theres no excuses for a band like gnr to just miss a show... but bitching about 4 years later doesnt help anything, and their demands that axl apologized and plays a free show are about as likely to happen as me hitting the lottery.  but why would axl want to go on a station thats ripping him.  what he should do if he can is just come clean about the whole 2002 tour, dont forget they missed vancouver to start off the tour.  and philly will get theirs too, tommy said in an interview in 04 they owe philly.  so nows a time not to bitch but to wait and see.

[faldor]

The reason Axl would go on a station that was ripping him is he hung out with a DJ (Matt Cord) from the station the other night after one of the show's.  They got along and he asked him why he went on Trunk's show and not his.  Axl told him he'd go on.  They tried to set something up last night but with the show and all figured tonight would make more sense.  We'll see if it happens.  Matt seems to be a huge fan of GNR though so I don't think for a second he would slam Axl.  He asked if they could touch on the cancelled show in 02 and Axl said, sure.  Again we'll see what happens.  Matt Cord had nothing but great things to say about the shows he took in over the weekend.

[kunzerd]

anybody listening in? anyone know if he made it on yet? any word?

[sandman]

he doesn't have to explain anything.

all he has to do is say something like,

"i can't go into details, but i do feel bad for the fans of philly that it had to go down that way, and hopefully i am able to play a show there and give them a kick ass night of rock n roll."

just show a little compasion towards your fans, and all is forgiven. it's very simple.

[Dead N' Bloated]

Anything else been said bout Axl being on tonight?


 

[leesixxrose]

Axl wont call...

he knows its gonna be a set up...

If he calls they are gonna ask him... he gets mad and hangs up... then they call axl an asshole...

he doesnt call and they are gonna say he "stood them up"

i dont think he can win this one with phily radio dj's....

They are gonna bag on him till they get fired or transfer.

[faldor]

I haven't heard them mention anything yet

[sandman]

not true. matt cord was hanging with axl after the show the other night. he's good friends with stinson. he asked axl to call as a favor and axl said he would, but that was at 5am and he wasn't sure how serious he was.

[faldor]

They're playing Tom Sawyer back to back for some reason.  Taking this double play thing to a new extreme.
