(Bites cookie....)

[ecwfan]

                 I just gotta say thank you for the album and years of great music. People would joke "The hell Axl will release the album.."


                  Did you watch Steven Colbert's little jab on TV when the album was released the day of his special ? Where he joked about you upstaging his day ?

Dude probably has 2k PM's HAHAHA!

I heard someone say his PM box was full before he even came here.

Hopefully the mods, locked his PM's.

Thanks for the clearing the rumors about Robin axl.

[SLCPUNK]

The album was A plus, everything I wanted, and much more than I expected.

Thanks for clearing that up Axl about the whole Robin situation.

[SLCPUNK]

Thanks for the clearing the rumors about Robin axl.

What were they again?

[Ron Jones]

Hey Axl Hopefully you read this!

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,

Are you checking your PM's???

[Cowboy Buddha]

Axl will you tour Australia next year, and when are you looking at doing so?

If you could work with buckethead again, would you have him just in studio, or also would you welcome him in the touring lineup?

Austrailia's great and the crowds are really alive. No plans yet but I'm sure there will be.

I have no issues with Bucket. It's hard to tell what was real or not in things we were told by Merck. He's more than welcome to tour with us in some form or other provided we're both interested at the time and come to some type of reasonable terms. Personally I have a blast w/Bucket on tour and get a big kick out of the guy. A lot of feelings were hurt on this side of the fence in how things went down and unfortunately others used our silence and the public's not knowing for their own purposes at both Bucket's and our expense.

Now that you said that please tell us if Robin's out or not... because, otherwise, we'll be reading several 'Axl wants Bucket back and Robin/Bumble/Richard out' type of threads for the entire '09 year and these threads annoy us, the new lineup fans.

It really is what it is. No decisions have been made by either him, I or us that I'm aware of.

When we're touring or working in the studio or there's social things like a friend's dinner or party whatever we would hang. But as people get older they have their own lives. The Stones aren't going bowling every Tuesday etc.

Robin leads one of the most different lives I know of starting with the trapeze in his backyard to the tv in his closet. Robin's work on the next is done so there's not lots for him to do here except the elusive promo and he'd rather be on stage.

It's more about seeing where things are when Guns decides it's right for a tour and if we're able to make agreements we both are comfortable and can live with at that time.

Thanks for the clarification on Robin, I'm a big fan.  I have been wondering but staying quiet on that topic b/c I don't anything on that situation... as what others should be doing instead of spreading more rumors.  Who is Shackler and what guitar parts do you play on the album?  Thanks for everything by the way (the music, album, and priceless memories with your music).

What is your favorite Beatles album and song?

I'd love to see Robin on the next tour, but if he's not, well, we'll move on. Thank you for answering this...
and please, do a world tour. Here in Brazil - well, the whole south america for that matter - you've got a huge, huge fanbase. Some promoters even announced a GnR show in '07 to gain publicity. We were damn excited at that time.

A LITTLE ADDITION TO MY POST!

Any plans on working with Jeff Lynne in the future?
