I wouldn't go as far as to say that he's a little fag but I will say that the rest of that band should definitely be fronted by Axl.
He was way way way better.
If one of them doesn't OD first, they'll mature and start to lose earning potential. Then they'll come to their senses and reunite just as all former greats have.
Re: What's With All the Gay Ring Entrance Music Nowadays?
I agree GNR and STP were both 20x better than Velvet Revolver
Axel wrote a completely racist song, knowing Slash is half black so I doubt we'll ever see GNR together again. Still it's better than most the shit thats out there right now, which isn't saying much ::**

CCR may be confused with southern rock but they are from CALIFORNIA
Southern Rock Groups
Lynyrd Skynyrd
The Allman Brothers
ZZ Top
Molly Hatchet
Charlie Daniels Band
Re: What's With All the Gay Ring Entrance Music Nowadays?
Just seen ZZ Top not too long ago, they still have a great sound and are good showman. They're getting up there in age, hopefully they'll call it quits when they can't deliver a good live performance anymore. I've always been a fan of the Stones but they're fucking up by continueing with their career. Poor Keith can barely play anymore, Jagger forgets half the words to his songs and hits all the wrong notes. Like seeing Roy Jones get knocked out :)
Drugs are bad mkay
Re: What's With All the Gay Ring Entrance Music Nowadays?
How about Pantera or some Hatebreed something that makes the crowd go into a frenzy!!!!Back in October I was at a UFC event at The Mohegan sun in Ct and Arlovski came out to some Hatebreed and I wanted to punch the guy in the face that was next to me the whole arena was going nutz it was awsome
Re: What's With All the Gay Ring Entrance Music Nowadays?
Definately a time and place for everything. I certinaly had my moments where Pantera was it :)
I'm suprised you don't hear too many fighters walk into the ring with Pantera, Alice in Chains, or something like that. It seems very fitting for the occasion.

Southern rock, country rock, rockabilly, folk rock...call it want you want if you want to get anal about it. The ozark mountain daredevils were from the midwest but does that mean they did not sing southern rock?
Everybody knows CCR (or originally known as the golliwogs) were from southern California but it does not matter where they were from because with lyics,tunes, songs, and albums under names like Mardi gras, Bayou country, born on the bayou, proud Mary, Cotton fields, green river, etc. etc. etc.........................you can't get any more southern than that!
Re: What's With All the Gay Ring Entrance Music Nowadays?
There is a guy by the name of David Torres that I see box on a regular basis. He is a good up an comer. He comes out to the Welcome to the Jungle (G&R) and right where the music kicks in from the beginning giutar mahem his Mariachi music takes over. So clever !! It's really cool he tricks you!! Those Mexican fighters have the best music!
Re: What's With All the Gay Ring Entrance Music Nowadays?
One I think of is Spinks' entrance for the 1st Judah fight.
What kinda dance was that?
Re: What's With All the Gay Ring Entrance Music Nowadays?
number one skynard ain't gay, and i'm a big rap fan, O0 but more importantly a fan of good music. but if you knew anything about music and boxers, you'd realise that taylor is from alabama which also happens to be the hometown of one of the biggest rock bands of all time...yep u guessed it LYNYRD SKYNYRD!!! the name of the song which you so eloquently deemed gay is called "simple man" which speaks to the fact that taylor thinks of himself as a simple man who keeps his training regiment simple and effective. be as it may i can understand your dislike for certain genre's of music, but leave the ignorance off your keystrokes! i like the fact that fighters are choosing more personal songs rather than typical fight songs which are a dime a dozen you can literally pick up any rap or rock album and find at least 2 or 3 "fight" tracks, to find that perfect song that expresses who you are and what you are about is a beautiful thing and imagining that moment as you enter the ring to "your" song brings a smile to your face, but that's just the opinion of a punch drunk monkey that owns a computer! peace. correction: i believe taylor is actually from arkansas, but i could be wrong i could google it but i'm too gawdamn lazy! it ain't eazy bein cheezy!

Damn right TKO. ;)
Gay's ass. ::**
Some songs are timeless & say what they said forever.
And also, respect would be nice.
Ali's achievements aren't any lesser as the years go by, why would Frank's be?
And it seems that nobody knows how to spell Lynyrd Skynyrd. ;D

Funny you should mention this. Manny Pacquiao actually came out to Rocky's "Gonna Fly Now" during his fight with Larios the other night. That was surprising for me, since I was half expecting him to come out to one of the two Filipino songs he recorded (Para sa Yo and Laban Natin To if I'm not mistaken).

The boys from Skynyrd are from Jacksonville, Fla...they only sang Sweet Home Alabama because of Neil Young's whiney ass song "Southern Man"...hence "I heard Mr. Young sing about her, a Southern Man don't need him aaround anyhow"
