Holy @#$%!! Guns N' Roses on MTV VMA's
 
Did you guys catch that?? They are my favorite band, and as soon as Jimmy Fallon started whistling, I knew it was going to be Guns... I was friggin pumped!! Too bad it's only Axel and Dizzy, I really want to see the original band. Oh well, it still rocked...that was the best closing act ever in the history of the VMA's, what a huge surprise. Man, I'm still pumped. I don't like the fact that the rest of the band are all goth-like though, it reminds me too much of Marilyn Manson. Axel can still sing his a$$ off though. I'm definitely going to the concert when they tour here in the US.

heh, you beat me to the thread :)

all of a sudden ihear the opening to welcome to the jungle...i was preparing to get pissed because i figured some modern day shit band was going to butcher it...then axel comes on biggrin:

I hate Guns'n Roses these days. I've now three ties had ticket to their concert, and everytime they have cancelled it, with most lame excuses.

Pyro 08-29-2002 10:43 PM

COOL!...

08-29-2002 11:46 PM

08-29-2002 11:49 PM

is the bang famous? how come ive never heard of them and also can u tell me the name of one song that everyone should of heard before in their life-time

=[DOA]=VonMeyer 08-30-2002 12:06 AM

Guns N roses Axel, duff,slash and i forgot who else. Gn'r were big when i was in high school. That was about 9 years ago! ed:

Hollywood 08-30-2002 12:36 AM

They were the best... It's funny, because once I heard him Whistling, I knew it was the song "Patience"...and right away I thought " Holy shit it's GnR". But I knew it wasn't going to be any of the original band...except Axel and Dizzy, because I keep up with the news on the band. Slash has tried to meet up with Axel, but he won't hear it...he's really being a jerk about the whole thing. I don't want to see a bunch of odd-looking guitar players walking around with masks and makeup on... I want Slash, Matt, Izzy, Gilby, Duff, Dizzy... I am still hoping that some day there will be a true reunion.

Innoxx 08-30-2002 12:57 AM

Yeah, the performance was a little disappointing, axle's voice ain't what it used to be. What's the deal with the assclown band members, they looked like they escaped from a marilyn manson concert.

Mr.X 08-30-2002 01:30 AM

....no mojo sans Slash! [img]http://www.sector101.fsnet.co.uk/yahoo/smileys/57.gif[/img]

Bazooka_Joe 08-30-2002 11:24 AM

Jimmy Falon came out in a Guns shirt, and I was like Ohhhh yahhhhh. . .

They were cool as hell to see playing again, but they sound like crap now, honestly heh

Sicilian_Summers 08-30-2002 11:34 AM

yeah...i thought they sounded like shit too oOo:

Totenkopf 08-30-2002 11:43 AM

=[DOA]=VonMeyer 08-30-2002 11:58 AM

No, you mean In my opinion guns n' roses suk rollingstones are the l337 lol

or I think that guns n' roses suk rollingstones are the l337 lol

secondly, in the post after youd said youve never even heard of them.....so how would you if they even "suk" or not?

anyway, Axl, duff, izzy, slash, Matt (prefer him to adler). Thats what GNR was all about. I wouldnt pay to see them now, i would only want to see the original line up.
Slash did say in a recent interview (about 2 years ago..err not so recent) that he would come back if the original line up came back. he says he wont play in a second rate GNR. And the group will only reform if axl cuts his crap about changing the music style. cant see that happening, and its a damn shame too.
Guns N Roses are up there with the best, regardless of what others think.

what was really strange was wacko jacko. that is something that scientists should be studying. evil:

08-30-2002 01:48 PM

you say they look like marilyn manson well 1 of the guitar players is from there so thats why.the other one is bucket head great guitarist

KTOG 08-30-2002 03:42 PM

i'm a huge G&R, i own the majority of their cds...but i thought they sucked mad pole on the VMA's . I know it was live and all and live stuff never sounds like the stuff on cd. But wow, you would think after 10 years of having these songs Axel would get the lyrics down and sing with the music hake:

Hollywood 08-30-2002 08:52 PM

But you have to understand, Axel runs around a lot on stage, and sings while he is doing it. It's not like the boy bands or some other rock bands that have their mikes turned down really low so you canbarely hear their real vocals, only the background music. Axel has always had many voice problems in the past, because of the constant drinking and smoking. But he did sound pretty good...for a live perfromance anyway. It's not compared to the CD's he does of course, but you have to understand that he must go through a ton of sessions before he gets the lyrics to sound right. On stage, it's just Axel's unique, raw voice.

Innoxx 08-30-2002 09:53 PM

Yeah that too, i cannot sing while running, especially doing my spot on axel rose voice. At least he did this famous shuffle dance, for like 2 seconds.

Pyro 08-30-2002 10:15 PM
