Guns n Roses: Critical Rehab

I predict a similar letter next year from Courtney regarding Nirvana's induction.

oh okay, I wasn't thinking about the whole HoF is nonsense who cares kinda angle. Fair enough.

but it's not an "i don't care about the HOF" stance. it's a "fuck you, slash, i'm bigger than any of this" stance. nothing admirable about it on any level.

I don't think he's saying "induct izzy and duff, fuck slash" at all - he seems to be saying that he'd be happy to be inducted if they included EVERYONE who's been in G'n'R from Live Like A Sucide up until the present day.

The line about Izzy and Duff refers to peoples' wishes for an Appetite-era reunion at the RNRHOF ceremony or whatever - he's saying that's never going to happen, but ppl who actually come out to GnR gigs are welcome to be delighted if any past members ever get up and guest, and he is equally going to be happy if those two ever do, and doesn't really expect anyone else would.

if Axl had actually gone it'd be a zoo -- at least now the other guys can go and have a really fun night together, hopefully get a good guest singer onstage for the jam session.

have you ever considered writing horror stories

oh look it's the guy who started this thread and its stupid premise nobody agrees with

I love that Axl uses the phrase "don't get it twisted."

great post

Dude, I bought a Black 'n' Blue and a Badlands album based on thinking somehow I could trust your critical opinion about Guns 'n' Roses.

lol I would still rep for the Badlands album over Appetite but I'd be more inclined to say "this is my personal issue" now

would love to see almost anybody front gnr @ the hall of fame show. scott weiland, alanis morissette, morley safer, anybody. mostly just so i could imagine axl losing his shit about it.

Lil B, Karen O, Jay-Z, Death Grips, anyone.

Get David Lee Roth in there.

would pay to see that. or death grips.

blue shirt matt is starting to look like jocelyn wildenstein.

It looks like he glued chunks of hair to his scalp almost at random.

in case you wanted to, you know, wear me

I think the guys Axl didn't want to see inducted are more likely to be Adler and Sorum than Slash. But this is all about Axl not wanting to deal with the pressure of the situation, not whom they are or aren't inducting.

Basically Slash, yes. Although I'm pretty sure Axl doesn't want Buckethead there either.

Nah, he loves Buckethead and begged him to come back to the band over and over. He did screw him out of writing credit for a song on Chinese Democracy though.

I guess it just stuck out to me that Axl seemed to not want to name Slash in that letter like he's Voldemort or something...seemed like a lot of fancy footwork to not say his name, yknow?

yeah, that was my read.

nuGNR released an official band photo today

yipes

all we are asking is for our rightfully earned place in the rock and roll hall of fame

and maybe for somebody to launder tommy's ensemble

I'm imagining Alanis Morissette fronting GNR and singing "Live and Let Die" at the RnR HOF ...

nuGNR look eager to talk about fluttershy and rainbow dash.

which one of those clowns is Tommy Stinson?

RRHOF can do without Guns'n'Roses. Overrated band.
