You know, the best thing about Axl's tweet is that it looks like he's moving on from CD. No relaunch. That's good news, imo. Restart with a new album.

Future music was never promised to us...and who knows if it will ever come? Who knows if Axl will ever tour in the US again? Chinese Democracy was a rushed product (how can that be after over a decade?) with major flaws in production and mixing.

Part of me is regretting ever stumbling upon Appetite as a struggling teen in high school. How could I ever know that 12 years later, I'd be doing this shit? Why do things have to be so dysfunctional? We are Axl's fans, but also his ennemies. We are bitter because Axl treats us as such. When he dangles new music in front of our faces, we all come running back.

This things is so broke, it's ridiculous.

MSL I think what underwhelmed people was what you actually "released/said" on 2nd Feb.  I am inclined to believe that you legitimately have documents, I also thought that 2nd Feb something a little more concrete or substantial would have been "released",  Your original video had intimated that a truckload of stuff was going to be unloaded on that date if there had been silence from the GNR camp.  Rightly or wrongly, with or without you fanning the flames, the 2nd Feb was built up to be something quite "interesting"

Now perhaps that was your original intention and things changed in your game plan between then and Feb 2nd which is your prerogative.   But when the resulting disappointment from some forum peeps was directed back in the form of anger, abuse etc - whilst childish, puerile and unnecessary, it was not entirely surprising.

Right on Aussie.

what you did release on Feb. 2nd was absolutely nothing. Most fans picked it apart in seconds, and it seemed like something a GN'R geek would cook up by piecing together rumors of the last five years of the band.

You didn't say anything substantial. Nothing was shocking, and then afterwards... "Doc McGhee FIRED from GN'R"... umm, okay... like Azoff before him, Merck before Azoff, Doug Goldstein, etc.

You haven't said one thing yet that's a bombshell. But you want to be compensated for you and your people... I get that, and that's fine.
