that guy didn't know what he was talking about. Richie is an ego-maniac. Just ask him.

I think that's like saying we wouldn't know Keith Richards if it weren't for Mick. Axl and Slash complemented each other well. I don't believe either would have made it as far without the other. As far as Velvet Revolver is concerned, Weyman is a dark character. I can only take him in doses. Too depressing at times.

they have a greatest hits album? Didn't know that.

I rather liked Use Your Illusion I & II. They seem to have matured their sound quite a bit. And as a live band, they really stunk in the early days. Slash is a phenom guitarist. A real original. Real unique style sonically and visually.

Anyone who has any semblance of taste and rhythm would almost have to love Outrider. I can't hardly pick a highlight. The entire album is wonderfully crafted. He draws from diverse pools of influence (of course). I personally feel Jimmy was instrumental (no pun intended) in keeping good music afloat in the early '80s. Rolling Stone are a bunch of stiff snobs. I personally don't care for them or anything they stand for.

Ha Ha!!

Rackman is so full of it.

anybody hear of the chick band Zepparella. Being myself a Zep fan for 30 years now, I am unequivocally impressed. Check them out:

where did you all hear leaked tracks from the new GNR? I just bought and burned Contraband but you say that Axl's new material is muchbetter? I'd like to check it out!
