 Hello all and welcome to NewGNR.com - the place to feed all your GUNS N' ROSES needs!
I launched NewGNR.com in early 2001, previously under a different domain. It's dedicated to Axl and his *new friends* so to speak.
To cut a very very long story short - saw them first when I was 7 years old - watched November Rain a countless times on TV - listening to their music took a big chunk of my life, and when Internet became popular around 1998, wheels were set in motion concerning this site. Good old IRC days. Then came 2001, Axl and a bunch of new guys in his band rocked Rio. I downloaded videos AND WAS IMMEDIATELY SOLD on them. They inspired me, and in the hopes that it would do the same for other people I tried to maximize their exposure on the internet as best I could - by dedicating a website to them and keeping it updated for the fans.
This website is basically a website that fully supports AXL ROSE in whatever he is up to, as to me, he is, was, and will always be somebody I will look up to. 
And to my surprise, some of you have even written to ask me personal things.
... I'm now 25 (born in August of 1984), I live, work, and study in Vienna (Austria)
... and for those that care... I got Facebook, MySpace, YouTube, and MSN (sladdi@hotmail.com)
Don't stop reading. Let me quickly thank some of the people that MAKE this site - it wouldn't even be half as cool without their input.
Katrin from Switzerland - you're a heart, thanks for the pics, entertaining chats, and moments!
Rafael from Brazil - thanks for all the graphics stuff, wallpapers... muito foda!
Allen from California - we owe each other a few beers. Thanks for the pics, stories, videos!
Jan from Norway - for being a GNR encyclopedia!
Limulus from Germany - yooo. He has done shitloads of video work for this site.
Robe from Austria - thanks for your support!
Manuel from Venezuela - for contributing to the site with the pretty banner at the top
Team of moderators in the Forum that ensure it's an enjoyable place and keep it clean from illegal shit that is just bad for the band. Limulus, Andy (2NaFish), Anarchy, Mark (misterbrownstone), Kev (The Spaghetti Incident?!), Anne (Rocket Queen), CoMa, Chris (irishaxl), and Lucky! You guys rule.
Last, but absolutely not least, AXL & GUNS N' ROSES, those around them, and Family
If I left somebody out, please bear with me... it's more about my bad memory than intentions. Just drop an email.
