Stress Fracture Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 I've never really seen the fuss around that image. Maybe it's my eyesight but I see plenty of equally unflattering ones where he looks out of shape, both from that period and the past few months.

Talkin about fit and manly body shape + the wish of Google deleting it... Axl should just Google Gwen Stefani and then he will see that he is fine...botox sucks.

Whomever decided to put the request for removal in caused a way bigger shit storm than the original picture ever did. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tajandreas Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Wow, we get a 30 second behind the scenes video from the band and there's zero fanfare on here. I guess hype really has died down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Axl Q&A is more interesting to mull over and the picture-ageddon is more complaint/mock worthy. Two things that would get the big responses. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess hype really has died down I thought that one was pretty lame. Just a bunch of cables and road cases... And the Jungle intro again. They're wearing that fucker thin. Some live footage & crowd shots are more interesting. Or maybe some of the band at rehearsal with their instruments or even taking a break! Cable coils don't do a helluva lot for me... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But old studio recordings and the word "GUNS N' ROSES" printed on guitar cases just aren't interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to rid the world of 'Fat Axl' http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/08/entertainment/axl-rose-photo-fat-axl/ It has gone viral. Is Axl really that idiotic, pursuing this, especially now he is doing some good stuff again with AC/DC, or is he that ill-advised by his management? Any idiot could have predicted this merely bringing renewed life to a rather old internet joke - if I'm honest. If you hadn't seen that picture before, you certainly will now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Cnut Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Every time you start wondering whether Axl might've turned a corner in life he does something like this to remind you just how big a cock he really is, it's hilairious 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Len Cnut Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 You'd think will all that money, all the attention he could still garner being who he is, all the oppertunity for artistic expression, all the crumpet out there that'd give him a tumble the last thing you would be is that insecure over a couple of unflattering photos. The worst thing is they were more of a thing closer to the time they actually occured, like you say he's just bringing more attention on em. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverburst80 Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 It's been a bad month or so in regards to selfie/autograph hunters and ginger people. Josh Homme nearly killed one recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillionsOfSpiders Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 He really does sabotage himself so spectacularly well. Oh well, he's used to it I suppose. 3 minutes ago, Silverburst80 said: It's been a bad month or so in regards to selfie/autograph hunters and ginger people. Josh Homme nearly killed one recently.

DieselDaisy Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 The autograph ban also made him look like a cock. This backfired spectacularly with Ringo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if he does these things on purpose. Every tour he does, my news feed is full of him, he becomes the most talked about rock star on all rock music related pages, good or bad. When he's off tour you hear nothing. EDIT: obviously not the meme thing though. Edited June 9, 2016 by MillionsOfSpiders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
