This was rumoured years ago, so if we ever hear it (& who knows if we will) it wont really be a reflection of what he sounds like in a studio now.

Damn, even Ringo Starr takes 7 years to release an album.

I'm still processing Axl getting a promotional website when he has never had a solo career and currently has no projects of any kind lined up.

The main information to take from this site is that you have to "Learn how to live and run, or die trying". Which sounds like a troll when the guy hasn't done a whole lot of running this century.

Jarmo’s take, for what it’s worth…

“Or he just decided to use this down time from GN'R to launch his personal site, since there's nothing GN'R related happening at the moment that would interfere with it?”

This kind of desperate apologia really brings me back to the old days. He hasn't changed one bit. Even Russ and Dave became cynics eventually.

Seems completely useless indeed. What is supposed to be happening on this site? News and updates? 14

Reminds me of something like this: https://www.kevingage.com/

In his case I can see the need. He's a solid actor with a few big credits to his name, but generally he is unknown. I imagine they put up sites like this so that people who might want to hire them can get a quick introduction about who this guy is etc. A promotional tool.

For Axl Rose though this hardly seems necessary.

Fleetwood Mac - Rumours

Never really listened to this. Great album. A few rather unknown songs that are pretty good.

Best of albums are a bad thing. You don't get the consistent groove that goes into a proper album. All of those songs were created in a small moment of time and that makes them fit together. Greatest Hits and the like feel like a mess in comparison. Very disjointed.

Axl seems to be a sucker for these old legends. He will go above and beyond to please them, unlike his own band.

Makes me think what a missed opportunity it was to not do a AC/DC album.

Axl autobiography would be pretty interesting. It will probably fare better now than 10-15 years ago when the world was still kind of hostile to him. I think that is less the case now.

They didn't show Dallas over here until the late 90s. Dynasty was all the rage. I was watching re runs of that when I came home from school as a kid. Soaps are easy to like if you just get into them. Now I'm mostly too old and set in my ways to watch that type of stuff.

Think I can comfortably say I've never watched a Dallas episode. But yet I know somebody shot JR. That's how big the cultural impact was. Huge in the 80s.

It's almost an achievement for Axl to not do anything productive in all his time off. Does he not get sick of sitting in his house ordering take out? Slash goes on tour because he's got nothing better to do, Duff got his family, so what is Axl doing? He's got a housekeeper, pool guys and whatever to do all that shit the rest of us have to do. There's no wife to order him around, and I can't imagine him on a business schedule so I suppose he mostly lounges around the home all day?
