Axl should release an Opera--hear me out

[GeraldFord]

After Chinese Democracy is out, for his next project Axl should make an Opera. It could be like The Who's "Tommy." Actually, the new Who album has a "mini Opera" on it so that got me thinking. I'm not bullshiting, I think it'd be awesome. It could be two CDs, two and a half hours long---but just one song (one track per CD). Imagine having it be like "Coma" and "Estranged" and "Locomotive." One song, epic....Maybe Axl could make a film to go with it. Thoughts...

I like the originality...but no. Sorry man.

There could be Dolphins and everything!

Maybe something like "The Wall"   Beep Beep Call from USA for Mr Rose... Beep Beep

I appreciate your idea. For absolute starters, let's wait until Chinese Democracy comes out.. Also, there's apparently another 2-3 albums worth of material to come out afer that, so such a epic opera would be a few years down the track yet

Actually, I wish White Trash Wins Lotto was recorded or someone had some lyrics up from that..... I've always just been so curious about it.

Didn't he kinda do that with the music video trilogy?  I guess not really but I could see him putting together a Tommy or Wall type album that would work.  I doubt he'd ever make a movie though.

The Who did a mini rock opera on Endless Wire. Something like that would be an idea for Axl to do.

"Opera" is throwing his whole idea off. A "Rock Opera" is what he should be using instead. I agree that Axl has the potential to make one of the greatest Rock Operas of all time, especially after hearing the UYI albums for the first. I still feel that the old band, with the contribution of Izzy (writings such as 14 Years, and Dust and Bones), and Duff (writings such as So Fine), would have been able to make one of the most amazing Rock Operas
