Also had fun checking out some of the Mick Wall hate sites on the internet set up by so-called Guns N' Roses fans, or mentals and virgins, as they are known to the medical profession. It's really rather flattering. Made me get up from this seat and polish my gold record for GN'R Lies that Axl gave me, bless his expensively weaved dreadlocks.

The rest of the time has been the usual blur of emails, snail mail, fighting wolves from doors, and, oh yeah, listening to Chinese Democracy by a group called Guns N' Roses. Well, I say 'group' but you know what I mean. Him. Now the dust has finally settled and the damn thing has been and gone in the wink of a dead dog's eye, I wondered what I actually thought of it. And it's simple really: same as ever. Some great tracks - Better, IRS, There Was A Time, all the obvious ones - and some right old codswallop - Shackler's Revenge, Scraped, blahblahblah. Poor fuck. If he'd put the bitch out 10 years ago we'd have thought it a masterpiece. Well, the media would. But he left it and left it and finally it just sort of squirted out like a wet fart and now it's all been forgotten again. No videos, no tours, no nothing to mark its passing except the usual not so terrifying silence. I mention this because I had a dream about Axl last night. We were together in a room at the Sunset Marquis in LA and we were laughing and joking.

"I'm sorry," I said, "for... everything."

"No, you're not," he said.

"Well, you did put me in the shit with that song..."

"And you put me in the shit with that fucking Motley Crue story."

"And who's fault was that? You were the one that wanted me to go ahead and publish it."

"I know," he said. "Those were the days, huh?"

"Just don't kill yourself," I said.

"I won't," he said. "I'm not that stupid."

Talking to Ross and Axl. Just like old times in dreamworld.

Fairly lame. I'm not a Mick Wall hater, but no part of that needed to ever be written.

Thanks for posting atari, it is funny how obsessed people are with Guns, even when they don't like them.

Tirade? The guy likes the album and gave it a very good review on Planet Rock Radio on an hour long broadcast he made dedicated to the new album.

He is right, GN'R forum members are mentalists, the masses have deserted and now the lunatics are in charge of the asylum.

It's pretty bad, but it's a blog. That's what blogs are, stupid self stroking day to day shit about people you probably don't care about. Hence, of the millions out there, I don't read them.

The sad bit for a journalist like Mick Wall is that he used to know and have access to GNR...and now he's reduced to writing about his dreams of axl wink

I agree with him that it's lame of fans to make hate sites for him. Like seriously? Some people need to grow up.

However I disagree about the album. I enjoy the rockers and the ballads...i like every track in its own way. Also...what is the point in saying if somethign had been done  ten years ago...the album wasn't ready in 1999, the "99" irs sounds like shit compared to the final one.

I read his blog now and again, its not bad. He updates it nearly every day talking about all kinds of different bands and personal stuff. GNR references are few and far between.
