I guess you're not a 'real' fan for supporting Guns N' Roses no matter what.
no that makes he even more true GnR fan because she's willing to call the bad guys on their BS & stand up for her convictions even when she's being shit on, which is the GnR way!:mosh:
ASSuming Nalt is a girl of course..

About a Girl?
School? NO RECESS! NO RE-CE-EE-SS!!
& if u wouldn't mind i would like it blew..
oh fuck! what a cracking little record!
I'm a Negative Creep & I'm Stoned! so many hooks!
but i don't think they grew into it either. i think kurt was always writting those poppy songs - been a son/sappy. it's just on Bleach he purposefully tried to avoid the pop songs (save for About A Girl) so Nirvana could release a 'hardcore' debut - which was the thing at the time, the Meat Puppets & most 80s alt-rock bands put out a hardcore debut before expanding their sound on their second album..

I'm with you DCK....a shocking amount of prejudice on display.

i seriously doubt that every single person in israel is trying to kill each other
stop being so single minded
that's not what we're saying, at all. the point is that citizens of a country have a responsibility, no matter how far removed they are from the brutality their government is creating. it starts with those very people who have to say "NO - we're not doing this until that is fixed"
i think it's entirely reasonable to be singleminded in this respect when there is a clear line between what's right & wrong.
the muslim/irish analogy is completely out of bounds btw. Israel is currently conducting a genocide against the Palestinian people. what is outrageous is that it is Jewish people, with their [recent] history of persecution carrying out these crimes against another sect. the Muslim faith is now the most popular in the world, it is a tiny minority of fundamentalists who are conducting a war, not the government of a country. The war in Ireland has been finished for nearly ten years now.

You have GOT to be being sarcastic...
you have got to be sarcastic.
that no melody thing is EASILY one of the most preposterous & bemusing things i've read since joining this board, on ANY subject.
the whole point of Nirvana was their melody - that they were able to take grunge/hardcore/metal & turn it into POP music.

wtf this DCK GENIUS, nobody ever said somebody Shouldn't Be Allowed To do fucking anything
everything about R n' R is political - EVERYTHING is political.
i'm sorry Neemo but it's just not as simple as Ron - or in our most base/explicit language, a famous jew playing for some less fortunate fans. there are millions of rock fans in turmoil, you don't have to play specifically in a country which is currently running it's own genocide & famine on a group of people - what about those people? a lot of them have prob nvr even heard of GnR or ever get the remotest chance at hearing that music..

it's bizarre & even INSULTING to even ask this question
dylan has 400+ songs all better than whoevr is in a distant 2nd place.
#3188 Re: Guns N' Roses » Ron Visiting Israel For Benefit Show » 814 weeks ago
Just because of "the situation" they should be denied a rock show with Ron Thal? Suck my dick.

#3190 Re: Guns N' Roses » Ron Visiting Israel For Benefit Show » 814 weeks ago
As having a wife that's Israeli I can't stress how much i would like you two to shut the fuck up.
haha
just sayin man.. don't really care to open that particular can of worms, just sayin.. what diff ur wife makes i dunno..
re: Olorin.. while there are even issues with ANYONE (jewish or not) simply 'visiting' Israel it's unbecoming to validate the behaviour & HR atrocities that are currently being acted out, even with something as small/relatively insignificant as playing a rock (benefit) concert.. but nothing is small or irrelevant in this respect really..
