I'm not sure any kicks in the arse would be enough for Axl, who one could argue has learned nothing from his tour experience with the previous GnR...but hey, this is how it goes....

I hope the album does get released (I somehow doubt they can afford the financial loss of not releasing it) and yes, I will buy it, even though i have mixed feelings about Axl, the guy needs to get many things in his life sorted out, but he for all the flaws he a is unique and individual character and it comes through in the music.
