Axl Gets Peeved, Lou Reed Loves Tai Chi, Lohan to Play Stevie Nicks?

  • G ‘n’ R Tour shocker: Axl Rose has turned surly. His target: The Eagles of Death Metal, who’ve reportedly lost their opening slot on the Guns n’ Roses tour. At Friday’s show in Cleveland, the Eagles played a set some in the audience described as “horrid at best,” and were greeted less than warmly by both booing G ‘n’ R fans and Axl himself. “So how’d you like The Pigeons of Shit Metal?” Axl said from the stage. “Don’t worry, that’s the last show they’re playing with us.” Oooh, snap!
  • In a move that may benefit literally dozens of out-of-shape hipsters, Lou Reed is narrating a relaxation / self-defense DVD featuring his legendary Tai Chi instructor, Master Ren Guang Yi. Lou’s also doing two soundtracks for the disc, both of which are reported to be based around ambient electronic music.
  • Lindsay Lohan has bid for the rights to Stevie Nicks’ life story. Reportedly, she’s a big fan of the Fleetwood Mac singer and would love to play her on screen. [Insert cocaine joke here.]
  • Today’s sign of the apocalypse: Christie’s is auctioning off a page of Britney’s high school homework.
  • Time-waster of the day: Test your knowledge of Beatles’ solo careers here.
  • Booyah: New Shins tourdates here.

lindsay lohan….could be interesting.

Donovan | 11/27/2006, 3:05 pm EST

First Eagles show I went to is still probably the most fun live show I’ve ever seen. Maybe they had an off night. Or maybe Axl is a pompous sociopath.

heavyhitter | 11/27/2006, 3:31 pm EST

Axl for dictator of the world!

SoWhat451 | 11/27/2006, 3:32 pm EST

Axl Rose is a Vampire. Fact.

New GNR is legit. Don’t really care who opens up for them…saw them in Baltimore, best show I’ve ever seen………

Joe C | 11/27/2006, 3:38 pm EST

Axl Rose is the biggest prima donna in music. He’s absolutely the last person who should criticize another’s performance.

Trance | 11/27/2006, 4:00 pm EST

Eagles of Death Metal are awesome. I like your braids Axl, theyre cute.

tim | 11/27/2006, 4:02 pm EST

axl is great and hes not the only one who thought they sucked the fans did as well

anonymous | 11/27/2006, 4:04 pm EST

Christian, you are a much better writer than Elizabeth. Really, who would want Britney’s homework?

Kliffee | 11/27/2006, 4:07 pm EST

Broken Axl!!

Me | 11/27/2006, 4:22 pm EST

The Pigeons of Shit Metal!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

john | 11/27/2006, 4:27 pm EST

lol “the pigeons of shit metal” thats great

Jarmo | 11/27/2006, 4:28 pm EST

What a waste. Merck required me to service the anus’ of the band members, then Axl goes and kicks them off the tour. Its all good though, Merck gave me a medal.

Who doesn’t suck these days?

Axl Rose is a washed up loser. Nice braids dude, so rock n roll. Chinese Democracy? There will actually be democracy in China before that album comes out and if it does come out it won’t sell.

Reality Check | 11/27/2006, 4:38 pm EST

I’m with Donovan. I saw EODM a year ago and had a blast. They’re not really suited for arena rock though. Maybe that was the problem. But in a venue with a few hundred, they were awesome!

? | 11/27/2006, 4:39 pm EST

The bigger crime is that papa roach can open for GNR and not get booed off stage. Fans in Cleveland get a tongue in cheek rock n roll band and you don’t know what to do with them.

For Axl to badmouth and throw EODM off the tour after one bad show is pretty unprofessional.

Leave Axl alone, the boy’s bad news

EJH | 11/27/2006, 5:13 pm EST

Who is actually buying tickets to see Axl front a Guns n’ Roses cover band anyway? No Slash, no Duff, no Izzy…how lame! Sebastian Bach is one of the opening acts and he didn’t get booed?! That should say enough right there.

bodi | 11/27/2006, 5:49 pm EST

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that Chinese Democracy will come out by the end of the year with no advertising and no known release date. It’ll be Axl’s way of saying F.U. to all the sellouts out there who go on TRL and shows like The View to sell records. I’ve heard some of the low quality demos of the new songs and they’re a whole lot more GNR than Velvet Revolver’s Contraband.

paul | 11/27/2006, 6:11 pm EST

yea the gnr demos that leak kick ass and there low quality

Therzo | 11/27/2006, 6:15 pm EST

Axl rose hasn’t written a note of music in his entire pathetic life. And any loser who pays to see the remnants of a once great rock band are total suckers. You should all get in Axl’s fat belly and have a party with the rest of the degenerates who think EoDM is not real rock.

Marie | 11/27/2006, 6:16 pm EST

Axls an arse.

Anyways, before I get attacked by the snarling bodygaurds of his to off every person that doesn’t bow down and pray to him as god, I really really really hope Lohan DOES NOT GET THAT FREAKING PART!!! I will just hate her even more.

Shotor2 | 11/27/2006, 6:32 pm EST

GO AXL! you’re the only rocker left, put out that fucking magnum.

Marie | 11/27/2006, 6:35 pm EST

Im a fat lesbian bitch who wears sports clothes.

Therzo | 11/27/2006, 7:02 pm EST

I write songs about living in my grandma’s basement. Sometimes I write them about my mullet and my Gwar T-shirt collection. I’d like to see axl do that!

truant | 11/27/2006, 7:04 pm EST

THERZO… stop advertising what an idiot you are. Half of Use Your Illusion’s tracks are credited solely to Rose (Words and Music) November Rain, Estranged and Dead Horse immediately spring to mind. Due some research, dumbass.

John | 11/27/2006, 7:05 pm EST

ONO, do all washed up losers sell out Madison Square Garden everytime they play???

Officer Jarmo | 11/27/2006, 8:01 pm EST

You may not discuss about this. Im trying to police the GNR community.

ThereWas aTimeWhenGNRsoundGOOD | 11/27/2006, 8:08 pm EST

everyone’s been saying that this new GNR kicks ass on this tour, but these guys are playing the old songs and shit so obviously these guys will sound good. Axl needs grow some fuckin balls and release his new Chinese Democracy shit or just overdose.

There was a time when GNR sound GREATTTT

Me | 11/27/2006, 8:55 pm EST

To the asshole who pretends to be Jarmo on every blog:

Give it a fucking rest, loser. You aren’t funny.

Go suck Madison’s short, fat, buck toothed 42 year old ass.

Laurens from Indonesia | 11/27/2006, 9:17 pm EST

Didn’t know Axl could be funny. Pigeons of Shit Metal. You have to admit: that’s funny.

Huh? | 11/27/2006, 10:02 pm EST

Does this mean Lindsay Lohan has to have sex with Mick Fleetwood, Lindsey Buckingham, and Don Henley?

Madison | 11/27/2006, 10:26 pm EST

I used to love Axl but now I love the EODM because they are old and ugly like me. Axl also wouldn’t let me backstage anymore and my website is going to hell because I am a jealous maniac.

used to be GOOD | 11/27/2006, 10:54 pm EST

everyone’s says the new GNR is so great during the tour, but what these FOOLS forget to realize is that they are playing the old material!! obviously (DUHHH), new GNR are going to sound so great. Axl needs to grow some balls and release his new chinese democracy. until then this new band will always be known as a cover band with the orginal singer.
…There was a time when Guns N’ Roses used to be GOOD…

bowieno | 11/27/2006, 11:15 pm EST

thought everyone who likes guns-n-Roses was an A-Hole….still do!

Capt. Obvious | 11/27/2006, 11:19 pm EST

The Shins = kick fucking ass

illusionsists | 11/27/2006, 11:25 pm EST

Axl in a cover band? Do you not realize that Slash and Duff joined GnR AFTER the band was created? He did us all a favor by kicking the POSM off the tour. People actually buying tickets to see Axl and the rest of GnR? Yes, in fact several shows SOLD OUT. I just answered a few questions that are as simple as 1+1. haha morons.

bodi | 11/27/2006, 11:59 pm EST

check out pollstar.com. GNR is #5 this week, the lowest they’ve been in months(they’ve been in the top 3). besides the rolling stones they’ve been higher than U2, Chill Peppers(except this week), killers, The Who, PJ, Aerosmith/Crue, etc CONSISTENTLY. People try and say how GNR isn’t selling out all their shows so they’re a failure……..NO ONE IS SELLING OUT MANY SHOWS TODAY!!!!!!!!!!! GNR, despite no new album, no advertising, and a new band, are still one of the most popular bands in the world. Just wait till Chinese Democracy comes out………..and it is coming out.

Playstation 3 | 11/28/2006, 12:28 am EST

ehhh the orginal line up was in a league of there own.What used to be good said was right. They need to release their sh!t ASAP so Axl can once again be king of the hill.

Jarmo | 11/28/2006, 2:24 am EST

I wish axl would take my butthole to paradise city

Phoenix | 11/28/2006, 7:50 am EST

People come to see Axl? That means people have been patient all those years, lol.

Ne-Gro | 11/28/2006, 12:08 pm EST

GnR could have been the new Zep or Stones, but Axl and his vaginal bleeding fucked it all up. Metallica sucks.

Ginger Genius | 12/30/2006, 10:14 am EST

Josh Homme has the rockability of Axl Rose in just his little toe on his left foot. Any man who self proclaims himself as a “Rock God” even after not releasing anything for over a century needs to shut up.

Take your whig off Axl

James Carlson | 1/6/2007, 6:18 am EST

I was at that show and everything about it sucked including Guns. I think the Pigeons would be better suited playing dive bars where people are so drunk they start sounding good.Ive heard high school bands that sound better.You people like them cause you think there clever and avantgarde when they really just suck. Guns became a joke band but these guys started out that way.All they have to do is
just play in Canada for the rest of there career where they would be Rock Gods.
