I definitely don't think he is being sarcastic.

He is an idiot. Plain and simple.

Now that the smoke's cleared a little, any desperate, misguided attacks have been just that, a pathetic stab at gossip, some lame vindictiveness, the usual entitlement crap, he's obsessed, crazy, volatile, a hater. I once bought a homeless woman a slice of pizza who yelled at me she wanted soup. We got her the soup. You can get your own.

 :lol:
Wonder what kind of people would say " he's obsessed, crazy, volatile, a hater", certainly no one here in this forum?  :D

Hopefully this whole situation gives Axl a good kick up the butt to write some badass, angry, volatile songs!

If this letter makes him an idiot then I don't know how Axl could do the right thing other than follow other people's demands.

I've only followed the response on this forum and it is very different from the one Axl is refering to. Perhaps Axl was expecting worse and was somewhat surprised some tried to understand his point of view.

Oh by the way, which one's Pink?

Dear Axl.

Thanks for your letter Axl.

I'm not really sure why people who claim to be fans of yours - post comments on forums attacking your personally for your decisions.

It's your life, do as you please, If you make another album i'll buy it, if you go on telly i'll watch, if you tour i'll attend if I can.

And if you still wan't / need that copy of "The Guns N' Roses Multimedia Experience" - Our Company wrote for you / MCA back in 1995 its still on our servers.

Peace.

Rob.

Lots of widow moaning on this board :giggle:

It doesn't matter what Axl does or doesn't do, everyone seems to think they have the right to be pleased by him and in their funny way of seeing things, it's Axl's duty to please them :rolleyes:

Keep enjoying your bitterness. Some of us will keep enjoying the amazing music and intense live shows

dont twist it!!
i'm still a huge fan of what he created with the old band. just done with anything supporting Axl + new band financially (directly). the way he handled the HOF situation and now is trying to save face is something i highly disagree and i'm very fine with responding on boards.

@Nature Boy: "maxed out his dickness": haha, that was good, thanks for a nice day start!!
wtf a you doing here then ??? this is a site about the NEW gnr !!! go to the justin bieber site ...... :fpalm:

what's that please?

Back in 1995 b4 the big split.   I worked on a Project for MCA to feature band info and all the music videos on 1 CD,  As well as Robert John to Put all his official slides from his book.

It was ground breaking at the time - Full screen Video on Windows 3.1  / 95  

Concept CD Was done - and submitted to MCA London.

And then fell to one side.

I still have Masters of all the Vids.  And the letter stating I could have access to all material do as we wanted.  I got a list of all the footage ever done (inc. Live) and televised / PPV footage that was available.  

Then Robert John wanted to do just his Photos on a CD, Once I forgot about time zones and woke him up at 4am. He thought I was Axl.

Then we were going to do a scaled down version of the video product to add to the end of the current CD Lineup.   Then  may be a Greatest Hits was talked about back then to include this.   And then the internet Came!   Forums / Website etc.

  
Whats sad is that we had something that was cool / unique and could have been rolled out to other bands.  But we picked Guns as we were all fans.

The Robert John thing - just didn't feel right.

So its there on a shelf at home.   :(

Do you not understand basic concepts?

He said he was done supporting the new band financially.

This forum is for all fans of GNR, not just the new band.

Hah i really can't understand all the hate the guy is getting. Axl has always been a 'unique' to say the least.

Respect the music, not the man.

Has anyone visited any of the other forums to see if he is getting a ton of support there?
