Axl being axl

[-Rob-]

problem is Azoff doesn't deny it.

Bingo.


It's unfortunate that any type of forward progress always seems to be greeted with 3 steps backwards.

There is no smoke without fire.

A similar story surfaced after the release of CD.  Remember, Nobody knew where Axl was or had seen him for 2 months.

now this.  Hopefully all is ok with him.

Guns N Roses' Axl Rose won't tour. He's done next to nothing to promote the all-but-forgotten Chinese Democracy. But when it comes to his manager, Irving Azoff, he's a man of action, having hired and rehired him three times in one month.

According to the New York Daily News, the manic-depressive singer is said to be resisting Azoff's pleas to try to revive the bomb album - pleas which, we would assume, run along the lines of asking (or begging) Rose to assemble GN'R and get them on the road already.

According to an insider, "Axl doesn't want anything to do with it. He won't come out of his house."
Hiring and firing - business as usual

    "We're in daily contact with Axl, and we look forward to continuing to support him and Guns N' Roses" a rep for manager Irving Azoff

As proven, not exactly the way to sell an album. A source close to Azoff admits, "Axl is Axl. People get hired and fired all the time in this business."

Azoff's rep says that, as of last week, he and Rose are on speaking terms again: "We're in daily contact with Axl, and we look forward to continuing to support him and Guns N' Roses."

Which probably means another firing is down the line soon.

Hope this is BS. How you going to bring in a new player and NOT go on tour?! they need to come out and say something...

[jacdaniel]

Yeah I think they'll have to release some kind of statement. 

[Voodoochild]

That was just a rehearsh of the original article, but even more harsh.

Really, people stating Axl as a mindfuck should really get a sense of ethic before talking. He said himself how he NEVER had such a diagnostic. And the Azoff's team quotes doesn't sound like in place to me.

The original article is clearly trying to push it into Axl's supposed crazyness. Azoff's team quotes are vague enough to back this shit up, but could easily be taken out of context. Trust me, I'm a journalist and I know what I'm talking about.

Shit like this being published in a gossip section of a shitty website doesn't mean shit to me. Of course they make it belieavable because of all the no-promotion and all, but that's what a rumor comes from otherwise it wouldn't be good enough.

Its laughable how some crows loved the article, tho. It must be like honey pot to bears.

[jacdaniel]

but there is no smoke without fire and one can see how the glove fits.

[IKnowWhereIAM]

Anytime an 'article' included the phrase 'which we would assume' you can wipe your posterior with it.  

[Voodoochild]

but there is no smoke without fire and one can see how the glove fits.

No sense. Anyone could make this "smoke".

Of couse the glove fits, that's why I said one could believe in that one. That's how people make gossips.

[jacdaniel]

true or not, its stories like this that signal its time for an update from the band.

Reading Axl's Q&A made people believe a video would soon be released.

Several reports are claiming that tours were been planned but seem to have fell through.

Fan confusion over the Best Buy deal.

Now this story leaking around. 

It looks to me as if Axl should come out and give an update to let people know what/if anything is going on.

If he doesnt, then it gives gossip magazine's fuel to sell these stories.  Although its more promotion than we've seen in awhile.

People who are fans won't need any statement to know this is a pile of crap. Stop trying to fan the flames of this shit fire.

What exactly is a pile of crap? The gossip story in the NYDN? And you know that how? I'm not saying we should believe everything we read but I don't just automatically pass it off as bullshit either. Especially when GNR seems unable to move forward with any kind of plans right now (including releasing a video that was apparently already completed).

if you keep this saying in mind "actions speak louder than words" it's clear where things are with the band

Amen!! Not saying a thing allows people to come to there own conclusions no matter how crazy some are. Its time to come out and address the rumors. And dont say that Axl doesnt owe us anything. I play in a band and I appreciate every person who has supported my band as well as my art. I take time to speak with people after shows and before shows. I feel like i owe it to them because they sent there hard earned money to see my band and support my art. So i dont think that a few updates here and there would hurt.

good shout on the tabloid journalism.

"People get hired and fired all the time in this business"
this rings true.
and axl is of course axl.

With those random quotes of a nameless 'insider' and anyone close to someone put together to suit the story,
t's still nothing surprising or worrying if last week a rep would say they contact axl everyday while bumbles texted axl live on fox news.

[TransAmMan]

Dont get me wrong I would love to have Axl tour and put out more music.  But if being in the music biz is gonna make him go off the deep end I would rather have a happy healthy Axl that doesnt give us new music than to have no Axl at all..  New music or no new music, tour or no tour. Axl the real fans love you.  All the other are just haters. "I dont give a fuck bout them cause I am crazy"

[Jdog0830]

I love the man, but the new York times are reporting that axl is refusing to leave his house. They also say he keeps hiring and sacking Azoff. Crazy eh?

God dam New York Times how would they know that is Axl still in New York state???
