guns n roses shuts down blogger

i'm not really sure how they do it, but people still seem to care about guns n' roses. hey, i was a fan...when i was 13. really, they were tailing off when i saw them @ shoreline ampitheater at the beginning of the use your illusion tour. the constant hype about the never released records baffles me. when they were on mtv a few years back for the vma's or movie awards or whatever i thought they were pretty crappy.

the other day i heard they were putting out a song that would be on guitar hero or rock band or one of those things. i was surprised, a little amused, but then didn't care. today, i was more surprised to see this headline, "Blogger arrested, accused of posting 9 unreleased Guns N' Roses songs."

wow. i would think axl would be dying to know that people might even care enough to download his new crapfest. sure, sure, it's wrong that someone stole the tracks, and i suppose it's also wrong that someone posted them without permission. but come on, are you going to download them? do you care that guns has an album coming out? doubtful.

really axl, let it go. your career is over. 1990 called and they want their mandanna back.

or, put out something for real this time. stop jerking your three remaining fans around.

(or, this could be a fantastic way to drum up free press with a fake controversy.)

I can't wait for the record to be released myself, just to see the reactions the fans & press are going to have: there's no way in hell that the most hyped record of all time can possibly live up to the hype. And hence, the bloodbath that will ensue...
