In a perfect world, what would the ideal situation be?

[mortismurphy]

go get em girl....quid pro quo I say. I honestly don't get their point of view either. These clowns have the balls to criticize a guy who is INFINITELY more succesful than they EVER will be. Let the man run his business as he chooses. It really is end of discussion. If he wants to retire, he has the right as he has earned it. If he wants to work again, let him work. Hell, how many people do you see criticize Jim Brown for retiring too soon? The man did his time, made his mark, and moved on. It is perplexing how much time and energy people put in to worrying about what someone else is doing. 

Bit of a bold statement unless you know the personal history of everybody here. You could be talking to people who are at the very pinnacle of their chosen field here for all you know.

It's a deflection tactic and a statement with no practical application to the issue being discussed.

If there was a relevant fact based counter argument to be made, there would be.  When that's not present, you get this sort of thing.

Next, he'll be telling us how our momma so fat.

I state facts. You live in a make believe "shoulda coulda" "if this, then that" playground world. If you get your rocks off doing that, have fun jerking Mortis off across the pond. 

Have a nice Sunday!

[jarmo]

Don't try to explain to the self proclaimed experts that they're wrong. 

Isn't it obvious they're the best at knowing how to manage, promote a major band and so on?

By the way, of course they never claimed to be experts or know it all. It's how you act, not always what you say.

Haha! They will go to extraordinary lengths to attempt to defend their idiotic tactics and narrative, while attempting to be witty and amusing- failing miserably on all fronts.

The "should" and "needs" are hilariously a result of their misplaced entitlement issues and their inherent need to try and impress others online. It is equally as amusing when they try and play the poor, abused victim.

How is it a delusion? Sky stated Axl is ''INFINITELY more succesful than they EVER will be''. I do not see how that can be fairly stated as certifiable fact without a detailed life history of each individual poster it is applied to. That is assuming we have established certain quantifiable rules for measuring 'success' in the first place. For all you know, some of us could be top lawyers, successful business owners, top athletes, etc.

Of course, the original poster could have meant ''INFINITELY more succesful than they EVER will be as rock acts'' which is fair enough: none of us here are (probably) Mick Jagger!

I have always believed you have won the argument the moment the opposition retorts to crass pejorative comments. Emily loses nearly every one in such a manner.

[The Wight Gunner]

The Ideal situation for me would to be in Seaclose Park on the Isle of Wight, waiting for GnfR to hit the stage. Living 2 miles from the venue has seen me hear Blur and the Prodigy headline for the past couple of nights. Today I have seen Fleetwood Mac come in by helicopter, so close I could see Mick Fleetwood and one of the women. For Years I hoped that Axl would pay a visit to Festival Island, heres hoping for next year...

Keep on inventing imaginary scenarios In your warped head.

I feel very safe in saying  that I seriously doubt whether the circle jerk of complainers and crybabies here has anywhere remotely close to the success that GNR enjoys.

If your only defense for the current situation with gnr is, to attack the other person personally whenever they point this out, then that just shows how indefensible gnr are.

I think you are all insane.

 

I have nothing else to contribute....It's the same shit all the time.

Wish there was something of substance to look at it, hopefully soon.

I have no need to "defend" GNR, they have done nothing wrong and are on hiatus at present.

You are a very twisted, negative and confused little person.

Please go infect a AC/DC forum and spread your toxic idiocy there.

We seem to have radically different opinions on just what constitutes a 'twisted and negative' person since you are about the most twisted and negative person I have seen on the internet.

It's totally meaningless.

Whether I am a world renowned brain surgeon, or a guy washing windshields at red lights...so what?  I'm neither, obviously, but what would it matter?

How is that the rebuttal of an easily proven premise that a rock star has not made great use of his time over the years?  Connect those dots for me.

Its just deflection, as I said.  And another way to dress us the same concept : stop pointing out inconvenient shit.

I think the argument is always thats its Axls time....   

So as "we" may see those years when Axl was in his mid 30's to mid 40's as "lost" years.  Axl himslef could be very proud of those years and got exacttly what he wanted out of them.

Personally, I see those years of his life, as the perfect time to pump out records and tour the crap out of the world with the greatest guns line up ever (early 2000s).

But for all I know, Axl is very happy with what he did and where he is in life..   So if that is the case, in no way is it a waste

You don't seem to like when it's pointed out to you that not everything is about releasing material. Plenty of bands and artists "retired" after experiencing either professional and/or personal difficulties.

In other words, you don't think it's a valid point to make that Axl did manage to get through things most people never have to deal with on that level.

I think its a pretty big stretch to take a guy that used terms like "the worst year of my life" and try and spin "well, whatever he was up to, at least he was having fun."

[jarmo]

I'm not saying anything about having fun.

I made the argument that if you had the worst year of your life, and you managed to get through it, that's a win. It doesn't matter who you are.
It's not about releasing music.
