Axl, man (this is incredible), two questions dont worry if you got LOADS many more to answer.

Democracy is a compelling/brilliant album every song has such an extreme feeling and vibe which drags you back for more, id just like to know....

1) outta the whole record what is your favourite part of music on it? like a break down at some point,strings, anything!, it would jus be cool to know!

2) in the 2006 tour when you was in the good old UK did you use michael owen's helicopter????? i heard rumours hahahaha top man if you did!

thanks for this, made my day!!

Hi Axl,

is Silkworms on the next record?

It's a masterpiece.



has a lot of guitars, lots of different drum work, the chorus is gone.

Hi, Axl

I notice there is a real difference in the mood and vibe between the song as they appear now on the album finished and the 99 demo's that I assume are your work with Sean...Care to comment on the difference, I guess in the over tone the album took from then to now? I like both products by the way...

'Scraped' is awesome, what's up with that song? How did you and Bucket, etc...Come up with it and put it together?

Whats your top albums of the year? Mine are

Chinese Democracy- GnR
Some People Have Real Problems-Sia
Acid Tongue- Jenny Lewis
A hundred Million Suns- Snow Patrol

Ever think about doing a duet with a female vocalist? I'd suggest Sia Furluer or Jenny Lewis!!!

Christos from Greece here...

First of all, thank you Axl for answering all these questions.

Both of my questions are about Catcher and they're a bit strange and may sound stupid to some but what the fuck...

1) Many people consider number 7 to be a lucky number (including me). Is this a good reason why Catcher is on number 7, or was it just random placement?

2) "How a body took a body and gave that boy a gun". Sorry for my english, but if you could explain to me what this means, I would be gratefull...

3) Don't care about May's solos (even though I love the guy), the song is pure magic, just like This I Love.


GN'R = Sometimes the only thing we counted on when noone else was there...   ;)

Axl, do you think This I Love is still the heaviest thing you've written, or has another song popped up that now holds that title?

The chance of you actually reading this is pretty slim, but here goes...  :thumbsup:

Axl !

Mind telling us what we have coming? Wondering if we have some sort of concert fottage coming anytime soon, remember from the 2 shows I was at in Norway that it got filmed.

Are you able to tell us anything about a future tour at this time? Next time I'll be folowing the band, in a non stalking way, through Scandinavia.


Oh, and, if you were to talk to Bumble anytime soon, ask if he still has the cross I gave him during Paradise in Norway July 8th  :rockon:

Hey Axl!

I love the new record. Great, great songs. A couple of questions:


1) What has become of the song Oklahoma?

2) Will the 01.01.01 show ever become available on DVD? Was there a plan before to release it?

3) What is the newer tattoo that's on your left leg?


See you next year on tour!

Axl.
What is Brain's status in the band?
Any chance of Illusion songs coming back like Dead Horse and Breakdown? on the 09 tour?
But now the damage's done
And we're back out on the run
Fun how ev'rything was roses
When we held on to the guns
Just because you're winnin'
Don't mean you're the lucky ones

Is the song title "The Ides Of March" real or just rumored and fake?
