Axl helps the environment

[gilld1]

A joke does not always equate a put down, atleast not in my book.

Anyway, I don't want to fight with you about it, I guess we can agree to disagree, eh?

Read any good books lately?

This is nice news. Thank you for posting this, rabia.

Thank you, Jarmo, for keeping this a positive place for true GN'R fans.

There are many of us that back your positivity. A few have to manufacture misery but that's not the majority.


Mr. Rose has always seemed very honorable and loyal. It is so lovely to see a celebrity that believes in helping from the heart and doesn't feel the need to get publicity for it.

Well done, Mr. Rose.

youre welcome, dreamer girl. its really cool that Axl does this kind of stuff quietly, making a contribution without seeking publicity.

I agree 100%. I imagine there's so much he does for charity that we don't know about because of his kind heart and modesty. It's so rare to see this in a celebrity.

There are those that criticize him and fellow GN'R members for not being in the media doing interviews, etc. I think it's quite refreshing that Mr. Rose and GN'R let their art stand alone without seeking the spotlight.

It seems that it's not about the fame and fortune for them. It's about the art.

Back in the day there was a mystique that certain artists kept about themselves, I remember reading that there was an excitement generated when artists like Led Zeppelin or Marlon Brando would say something publicly because they didn't feel the need to constantly self-promote.

I think that's really cool and so desperately missing from today's artistic culture. Celebrity saturation and obsession is a sick part of our society and it's wonderful to see those rare artists like Mr. Rose and GN'R that don't play into it.

Robert De Niro and Al Pacino are also like this - not seeking attention. Johnny Depp and Leo DiCaprio have also gone on record as saying they prefer to keep the mystique by not constantly talking and letting their work speak for itself.

I think this is a sign of a true artist that is so passionate about their art they don't need the constant affirmations from critics and fickle fans.

We need more of this!!

So once again, bravo and well done, Mr. Rose!

There is nothing wrong with a little humor is the right place. This thread is not the right place for it. Jarmo has every right to get upset. Every damn day he has to put up with so called humor. I personally do not find any of it funny either. You want humor like that why don't you take it too a private board where you all can talk shit all day. It's a waste of space over here. As far as I am concerned.
Jarmo is trying to keep this fun but informative. That is not an easy thing to do.
peace

Glad to hear Axl is doing his part to saving our planet

[lostdream]

I love animals and I think everybody who tries to save animals lives earns a lot of respect. The way we treat the ones, who cannot help themselves or are weaker than us shows a LOT about our personalities and souls. Children, animals....

Well done Axl! Respect! 

And besides I do believe in Karma: what you give is what you?ll get returned.....

This forum has a very low threshold for humour.

For unfunny "humor", yes.



Somebody posts that Axl has done something nice and immediately you have to try to add your "humor" to it.

So predictable, so fucking boring!


The same shit happened when his house almost burned down and he was part of a group who helped save his neighbor's house. Some of you had to make fun of it. 





/jarmo

Seriously, dude, lighten up.  Life is too short to get all butt hurt every time someone tries to have a little fun.

well why don't you have your "fun" at the expense of someone else who deserves it?  why continually pick on a man who's dedicated his life to chairty and making amazing and inspiring art that has touched the hearts of millions around the world?  of all the people you could troll after on the internet, mocking and insulting their every move, why not pick somebody else?  aren't there enough axl haters already?  don't you feel silly being part of such a tired trend?

Man, shut the fuck up.

It's been resolved so let it go.  Nothing was said that was that bad anyway.

I like that axl is green but I would rather he save the world of rock n roll in addition to the environment.

he's already done that.  twice now.  forgive him for caring about larger issues too.  sorry you don't approve.  why don't you start a band and save the world of rock n' roll yourself?  oh right... too busy posting on the internet.  maybe you'll get around to it next year.

[gilld1]

Can you not fucking read?  I said that I liked that Axl was green, what more do you want? 

You want to give me shit for posting on the internet, well what the hell are you doing?  Pot meet kettle!!

Twice?  That's a bit of a stretch.

I made a cartoon of Axl singing. I posted it here and it was removed completely (I don't think it was even moved to the Jungle). It might have been a little lame, but it took time and I thought it was fun. Because so little is goin on I thought it might bring a smile to a fan.

I guess it just made Jarmo angry. That wasn't at all what I wanted. I love the fans. Oh well.

What dose this have to do with the topic

[Buddha_Master]

LOL.

Man, I don't know what Jarmo saying what he did to Horsey's thread had to do with this topic either but, I had a story that related to that.

But alright man. Look. Axl doing what he can for Mother Earth is fucking cool. Axl has always showed signs of genuinely giving a fuck about important causes. Like the contributions of giving Civil War to uh, some cause that seems to have escaped me.
