As for TSI that album was just a fun album the band did to cover songs that influenced them. As for their live shows with BH were awful that is just your opinion and most people would disagree. Since most of the shows got great reviews and the people that went to them most liked the show save the people that cannot deal with slash quitting the band. Most reviews even the loder review said if you closed your eyes you wouldnt even know it was a different version of guns n roses playing up there.

The new gnr songs like IRS and madagascar are by far better than anything on the radio right now.
Thats the most ignorant thing i have ever heard, Nirvana were decent at their instruments, they never set out to be the next Mahavishnu Orchestra or anything like that, they just wanted to make good music that didnt have to be complex or very technical...Nirvana are much more influencial than GnR, more bands have imitated them and more bands have been inspired by them, Nirvana made Alternative Rock more popular and acceptible than it ever was when hair metal was still around, which is why Nirvana are so important, and why they are greater than GnR.

And saying all modern music sucks is a great sign of ignorance.
