Hi Axl

Who are you favourite singers/bands that you like to listen to at the moment?

[andy rosita]

I don't have questions, I just want to tell you that I think Chinese DEmocracy is best album on earth, it will go down in history and it's sound is so new, and modern that if in 3 thousand years there's still our planet, people will still listen to it




I love youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu  !!!!!

Hey Axl - greetings from Bristol, UK!

I was wondering if you could confirm whether the below image was originally planned for use with the album artwork and in what context?  I read that it was pulled by the Chinese artist due to fears of reprisals bythe Chinese authorities.  More generally, how do you feel about the Chinese media/government's response to CD?



Thanks for the album - look forward to volume II

How do you feel about meeting your fans?

What is the best way for a fan to meet you, if they happen to be a dude (since the stereotype is that rockers only wanna meet hot chicks)

What do you think of fans who get GNR related tattoos?

I like meeting all kinds of fans but after a show (I realize that's the only time some may feel they have an opportunity but w/the exception of close friends around...) not to be offensive but I'm generally not looking forward to walking off stage to hang with guys whether they're fans or not. I deal with Guns all day every day so coming off stage to talk about the band is just like more of the same. Unless there's pressing business I wanna forget that till it's time to go at it again the next day. And people may enjoy meet and greets and have their reasons why it meant a lot for them which I respect but overall charging fans for it I thinks disgusting of bands. Now if they did it for free to winners of a contest etc that would be different. Charging is lame. How to meet bands? Maybe try to hang out places u might hear they do sometimes.

hy Axl!

do you going to spain in the next tour?

[damianw]

i don't know what i'm doing on this forum, had never really been a GNR fan until i bought CD a couple of weeks ago. I just have to say that i am addicted to this album, i look forward to the next chance i get to listen to it. Is critical acclaim for CD important to you & how important are sales in validating the albums quality or being art is it's value purely in the effect it has upon the listener? CD is one of the greatest albums off all time, a timeless masterpiece and reminded me how important great albums are to me.
