BEST BEHIND THE MUSIC EVER

Watching the newest BTM on G-N-F'N R and I'll tell you, it is the best BTM I've ever seen.

I was a huge G-N-R fan but forgot how BIG they were, how much fun in the beginning they were and then how totally nuts Axl got.

The show is flowing fast and just covering what it can in an hour but we are getting great input from Slash and Matt Sorum, Gilby and even a stroked out Adler showed.

It just seems so sad that a band with so much talent destructed like that. If you could rate a band after only a couple albums (Appetite and Lies) the greatest, G-N-R may have been the one.

Of course you are talking about a nutcase in Axl, who could have been as big as any rocker but shall now forever be a whatever happened to? case. Lot's of zingers thrown at Axl.

The best part of the show is Slash's last words about a reunion, "they can throw all kinds of money at us, but unless we're on the same page and have mutual respect it ain't happening and we are so far from that well...."

The only thing that would have made this better would have been to have Axl provide something.

Also, they did thrown in a clip of Velvet Revolver and I may have to go get the CD.

Overall Best BTM EVER.

Slash was just so cool and he got some good jabs at Axl. That in itself was worth the watch.

The saddest was seeing what Adler has become. Truly a sad case, hope he has found some happiness in life.

I saw that.

Now, I like Buckethead and Brain as much as the next guy, but what the hell is Axl doing?

My favorite BTM episdoes feature AC/DC and Poison.

AC/DC because the brothers, especially Malcom, are just plain charming.

Poison because CeCe is priceless.

I wish they had mentioned the fact that The Offspring named their last album "Chinese Democracy" as a jab at Axl and how long that album has taken to get made

A new CD by the former members of GNR...and a new Behind The Music on GNR...what are the odds!?!?

Nothing will ever beat the Leif Garrett BTM.

Ah yes the Leif Garrett BTM how can I forget.

"I forgive you, man. But why haven't I heard from you in 20 years.?"

"I love you, man and thanks for not telling anyone that we were bumping uglies when I wrecked."

(my take on the "reunion scene." with added humor.)

I watched it, and thought it was pretty good. Worth all the jabs at Axhole. They were never one of my favs, but it sure brought back some memories...

I'm beginning to think they don't like Axl very much.

I love the way they took jabs at the way the new GnR album has been promised for a decade and Velvet Revolver has one of the hottest albums out right now.

Poor Axl, he just wants to be relevant and swim with dolphins.

I loved the way the one guy said, "Axl just wants to make the most relevant album possible, but in 10 years times have changed and keep changing." Sounds like Axl is Ahab chasing his white whale.

Before watching this I had bought into "they were all like brothers until Axl went nuts" PR , but it sounds like they were never all that close. Perhaps that tension is what makes a band great.

I'm gonna check this out tonight.

One interesting thing that I never knew before was that Slash is half black. I saw a clip (I think on VH1.com) about how Axl offended him with "One in a Million"

Stompy, that is something that struck me odd, because I could have sworn at the time of it's release Slash backed Axl (it was then made public at that time Slash was biracial) and instead of acting like it was a swipe actually said it was no big deal. Of course I maybe mistaken, or it could have been just press and not Slash's true feelings.

I used to really like GnR. The first concert I went to was FNM/Metallica/GnR (first show after James's accident). I still think of that as one of the best shows I've been to.

Nowdays I could give a fuck about Asshole Rose. I hope the album never comes out.

I would've given anything to see the FNM/Metallica/GNR concert back then considering all 3 were my favorite.

I also didn't know that Axl forced the other members into signing GNR rights to him. He told them "either sign the rights over to me, or we're done".. and they did.

This was shortly after Use Your Illusion came out, when they were still HUGE.

What a fucked up thing to do.
