u do realise u could have said the exact same words only in reference to axl?? to any countless number of strops & bad excuses??

that's what i mean when i say MSL n his ilk are a reflection of the band's own behaviour, especially w/regards the (mis)treatment of the fans. & how, in part, GnR/Axl bring this BS on themselves..

(tho that's ASSuming MSL actually has legit BS & not stupid BS)

i'm actually starting to question now how much interest i actually have in the new songs...

i want a new GnR album, officially released songs more than just about anything that's not pussy..
but i don't really have a strong desire for leaked studio demo's or unmastered, unfinished songs. i would still download them and listen to them once or twice, but i wouldn't invest myself emotionally until it's an officially sanctioned album. never have. bar the live tracks from HOB, & maybe IRS & TWAT on occassion, i pretty muched ignored the pre-CD studio leaks, i still grabbed them all & listened to them, but i've listened to them far more in the wake of CD's official release than i had before..
(also, tbpf, i think i'm getting over-CD & would prob prefer to hear a Ron/Ashba-era GnR song than a decade old Bucket song - don't get me wrong, i WANT a CD-era BOXSET with ALL the songs Bucket n Finck did.. i would just get more excited by a leaked song from the new band given i don't know what they're capable of & that 'Cuban Skies' clip, if even legit, did sound quite similar to CITR/TiL)

that is maybe why i'm more interested in the gossip. like i've implied i've always been enthralled by this unique clusterfuck in one of the most legendary and bestest rock n roll bands ever. and anything that can help explain that clusterfuck or shine more light on its madness really excites me!
the lunacy of this band is often matched by passion & while that is captured in their music, it's also captured in their behaviour which makes it an endlessly interesting dynamic.

yea you'd be bummed but it's not the end of the world, right?

i mean GNR have endured & survived worse shit than an amateur wrestler extorting them, knowwhatimean?? donnington for one thing springs to mind.. uh the entire band disintegrating is another..

i guess my point is this really isn't the end of the world. just another bizarre hiccup in the glorious clusterfuck that is this rock n roll circus. it's not like it's gonna bring axl n the band to and end.

if axl n gnr are such victims of circumstance & conspiracies as they claim then there shouldn't be much in the emails that they don't want people to see. if axl's really as genial & innocent as he makes out they should have nothing to worry about frankly..
