Axl on Better music video and more

[oneway23]

Axl,

Might I humbly request that we hear Chinese Democracy start to finish on the next tour??

I'm sure the guys are jumping out of their skin to play their songs!

[LaneSax]

Axl, thanks for Chinese Democracy which i personally think is your best work.

what's your pick for album of the year?
and have you heard the new MetallicA album?

Ours of course!!

Yes, I like it.

haha an obvious question huh.

on a side note, your album is doing really well here in tiny Singapore.
the Axlites here love it and it's exceeded expectations here like we knew it would.
do make a trip here if you're bored enough

[anythinggoes II]

Do you still write with or have contact with Paul Tobias, does the guy have any projects of his own going???

[Layne Staley's Sunglasses]

Speaking of Scraped, what influenced you to come up with that intro?

It's very soulful, gospel-ly (if that is even a word?) and something the homeskillet Freddie Mercury would do.

That, and as I said earlier today, a big FUCK YOU to all the people who said you can't sing anymore.

[SLCPUNK]

Hi Axl!

Concerning the video for Better, will it be a "live concert compilation", or did you shoot something specifically for the music video?

That's a great question, I'm very curious to see what a modern day GnR video will be like.

[WhosGilby?]

Axl can you give us some insight into Riad N the Bedouins?

[Schwarzgold]

Since it worked for gunns, 'll try the same 

Hey Axl,

great to hear of you. One question regarding future releases: One of the greatest wishes of most people here (I assume) is to see and hear more of the stuff that happened behind closed doors over the years. And I don't mean the ugly stuff, I mean the cool band stuff - backstage footage from the tours, interviews with the guys, talking bout the music - stuff like that.

Since there ist some footage circulating (Lush Productions, 4mins or so), here the question: Is it planned to release anything of that kind in the near future - maybe a DVD?

Thank you!

Hey Axl,

Why did you kick Tom Zutuat out of the Roxy during the listening party?  Was that true?

[DuffRoze]

Here is one question though....

Will the band ever be able to play Vancouver again?
(but victoria is better anyway)

Axl, do you remember that song that you denied at the Cuckoo Club in 06?

[SterileEyes]

Axl, forgive me for the ridiculous question...


Who is Riad and who or what are his/her Bedouins?


Happy Holidays / Happy New Year!

G'day Axl Rose, question: Pearl Jam are reissuing their first album Ten, the reaction from some people has been negative because of its pricing and people's opinion that its unlike Pearl jam to do something like this as they are making money from old material? What are your thoughts about a band like PJ doing this, and have you met Eddie, Mike, Stone or Jeff before?

[Alfie Bones]

 1.)  Is "This I Love" your favorite track on the album ?

 

In case Ax doesn't answer you, he said on MyGNR that Sorry is his favorite to listen to right now.

From everyone of us here

Thanks so much for taking a little time out to talk to us. You have no idea how much that means to us. Your songs are the reason we are able to get through tragedies and other horrible shit that happens in life.

Thanks again!

[conjurer]

We have seen some snippets of what looks like a documentary that was being filmed.  

Do you foresee a day when we will get to see more of it?

[morokolli]

Oh my god,

I am just speechless. I love you Axl Rose. You were absolutely awesome in Helsinki, I loved the concert and I have only had ears for chinese democracy since I bought it, it's so good!!!

I'm giggling like a little girl all over again!! Like when I was 10 and saw the vid for paradise city for the first time and thought, wow who's the handsome man!? Been a loyal fan ever since!

Love,

Mexican fan living in Helsinki

Hey Axl,

First off I just want to say that the reason I respect you is because you refuse to Downplay. I use that word the most when it comes to talking about you because what makes you 100% genuine is that you show you don't care in the most natural and least cliche ways possible. I've also learned that how everybody describes feelings and music as "heavy" is fucked up. You can write a song like This I love and that is heavy and that takes balls. A song like "estranged" or "this i love" can change the whole vibe in a room whether the the people in that room want it or not. That is you...to me. This seems unrealistic but..I wrote a song that contains lyrics inspired by u called "the strip". It asks the public to do the strip cause they are fake. www.myspace.com/killandrade...

Hey Axl,

Why did you kick Tom Zutuat out of the Roxy during the listening party?  Was that true?

This has Vanessa written all over it.
