Axl Rose official website?

[DeN]

You don't create a website just to have a website; there's always an underlying purpose or something to offer.

You can create a web site to just have a web site. I mean, who knows what it could be used for in the future, but you definitely could just create one to have one ready, in case you need one at some unknown point in the future.

yeah that's pretty much my point, I didn't say it was to sell a book tomorrow... but if you create a platform
it's not for nothing, and as you say, if Axl needed to express his feelings, he already had his Twitter account
(and f@ck Musk )

To be honest, I don't know. I just don't jump to conclusions without any evidence other than "There must be a reason".

Agreed, although in a way, whenever someone does something isn't there always a reason, no matter how small right? 

But, I get what you mean.

Heck, he might have realized the URL was available and thought....shit, I need to scoop that up before someone else does and then posts stupid shit about me.

(Political opponents do this all the time to each other - getting the URL's to their opponents' names, etc.)

Personally, I think he got bored one day and said . . . fuck it. I'm gonna make a website. Why not?

Or maybe, like others, he is leaving twitter (even tho he's not that active on it) and this gives him a new/different outlet to give shout outs or wish someone a happy birthday or whatever.

But, again, I do agree. I don't think it's worth thinking too deeply into it. It is what it is. He made a website. People do it all the time.

Are we sure Axl knows he's got a website?  I know it's linked but he doesn't say too much on X and I don't think he has much interest in creating a site for himself.  Wouldn't surprise me if it's one of those things he just doesn't care about.

I think so. I could be totally wrong.

But the fact that the web site links to his only official social media accounts, that alone serves a purpose.

I would think there's a purpose and Axl probably knows a site was being linked but I was wondering if it's one of those things that's more business related than a personal thing. 

[jarmo]

Personal business? 

I'm guessing it's both. Any artist with a web site, it's there for their own sake.

It could mearly be a pointing website to drive traffic to his social media. Obviously having a little content to justify calling it a website rather than just a holding page. It would at least be available on a search engine page 1 at somepoint when typing his name/
