General GNR chat

[Carlos Gunner]

Izzy was the coolest Cat in Guns N Roses, he did not compromise with Axl in his most egocentric states and stages... he did not care about fame and money enough to pretend the attitude of Axl was not shitty.

Why is Slash not dating a super hot lady?

[PermissionToLand]

Are you high?

He doesn't go for those scrawny, helpless model types if that's what your asking.  His woman are more voluptuous and can hold their own.

I thought Perla Hudson was incredibly hot. Losing her must be somehow painful.

Megan is not sexually attractive. That is the problem if you are talking about a Rock Star.

Are you high?

I am not high, I do not do drugs.

Why are you upset?

This is the question people do to others when they are offended.

GNR has beautiful and deep lyrics and content, but it is also a binge, party, sex, drugs, and rock n roll kinda band.

[Carlos Gunner]

I LOVE GNR, I have always loved this band. The original family.

I have to admit there are some things I do not like anymore about the band. The fact that they are older now, means their stamina and sexual presence have dramatically reduced. It is just not the same as it was back in the good days. Their sexual power was part of the magic GNR had in the past that was so deeply impactful, and uncontrollable also, it is mostly gone forever. It is sad but just part of nature and humanity.

I especially dislike the fact they spent part of their youth and adulthood fighting each other instead of creating more amazing material. It is true they wasted their chemistry and part of their lives fighting, instead of creating. That is just a damn pity to me. We could have outstanding material if just they stayed together.

GNR proved to reach its highest potential with Axl, Slash, Duff, Izzy Stradlin, and you could have either Steven or Matt. The combination of these guys was tremendous, a bomb, that no other Rock N Roll band could replicate. Because these guys were the shit, the real deal. They destroyed themselves, and it was proven that not even Axl by himself was able to replace the other ingredients or elements of the band as successfully as how the originals were. No total disrespect towards the replacements, but the originals can not be replaced UNTIL TODAY, I told you Axl tried, but he could not, he even got himself a musical GENIUS maybe ten times better than Slash and he could not take his place, Buckethead.

I think the same will happen when Axl tries to write new music with the replacements or release it and he will realize that it is just not gonna overcome their old material, now only because they are old and their minds are not as they used to be, but also because the chemistry is just not the same, regardless of how virtuosos the other elements can be.

I think it is true Axl controls MOST to EVERYTHING in GNR. That is why I believe they do not release new music anymore. Let us say it, it is true that Axl's voice can not be compared to his voice in his prime, he lost a lot of his power, you could notice this even in the CHINESE DEMOCRACY Album.

I think Axl did not try hard enough to have Izzy back in the band, that was really disappointing to me. When I saw Axl's interview back in 2016 about Izzy and the reunion of the band, when I heard Axl I thought he was hiding something, and that was my impression, that he was not being clear about things, about Izzy.

[Carlos Gunner]

I think the band itself became very superficial. and that was one reason, from my perspective, that it took so long for Axl to release new material after GNR's breakup, CD. The band had an image that was very hard to erase or replace. I remember there was a time after GNR's breakup when people did not respect GNR and thought it was a silly band, at least from what I remember when being a fan in a time GNR was forgotten and also ridiculed. I sometimes wonder how it came to happen they became popular again, cause I think people in the music industry will not help you unless they get something back.

Sex, drugs, and Rock N' Roll, the bad boy's lifestyle, loses some of its meaning when you are older.

I am aware of Axl's mental condition according to what I ve read and for what i ve seen him behaving. He is a musical genius, and yet there is no geniality without a touch of madness, for some. Every genius lives in between those polarities. Heaven and Hell.

I don't think he's with her to prade her around and say because I'm a rock star, the rest of you guys should be green with envy.  Don't know Perla.  From what I saw of her around the divorce, I didn't care for her as a person.  But then again that's not the best moment in your life and you do some stupid shit.

[Carlos Gunner]

I have considered that Slash and Duff came back to GNR mainly because they saw that their careers were not going anywhere higher and they returned to GNR expecting a better condition. But I also think that now that they are part of GNR they are sorta like puppets who follow Axl's instructions, and have no voice and no vote in the decisions, that Axl takes all the decisions. I personally think this is true because Slash has released material in a constant basis, but within GNR it has stopped.

I think the song ABSURD and the other one, Hard School, are ridiculous and desperate songs. I think it was just not the right choice to mix different GNRs eras and I also think it is a mistake to mix Slash and Duff with the replacements in GNR.

I think Richard Fortus consciously or unconsciously tries to look like Izzy Stradlin, unfortunately, they somehow resemble. But damn it must be hard for him to try to make himself a name while walking in somebody s else shoes.

I do not like the combination of Slash and Richard Fortus.I do not think they should share guitar solos in a song, different energies.

Sorry for being superficial myself about Slash's life. This was just in my mind.

[PermissionToLand]

Yeah, this guy is high as a kite.

[Carlos Gunner]

Yeah, this guy is high as a kite.

No, you are just triggered and trying to bring me down, that is all, posser. Fuck off.

[Carlos Gunner]

Absurd, the song, is Axl calling us motherfuckers, how disrespectful that shit it.
At least I can say the song is not good, and the solos are noise.

[Carlos Gunner]

I like GNR
everything people like about GNR is OLD GNR. O R I G I N A L G N R
oR most of it
they did it to themselves by not creating new music
by not releasing it

[Carlos Gunner]

It is way true most people love mostly OLD GNR original GNR
Chinese Democracy songs are probably the least popular even in concerts

I think you get fans, and you get superfans.

I get you, afd was a game changing album, but I think 30+ years on, it's all beyond analysis. I think, from a human perspective, the band members have to be doing what they're doing. It's about quality of life and peace of mind. If you think about all the rock and pop stars we have lost over decades, just be thankful they're here, and still able to entertain people.

What is the reason Axl and the band are not releasing new music?

It makes me consider Slash and Duff have no saying in the decisions in GNR.

They should close the cycle with an ultimate GNR album with Izzy Stradlin.
