Re: [新槍] Ron Thal的訪談~

[adolfo (Prisoners in Paradise)]

(恕刪 後面一點把它翻完)

Ultimate-Guitar.com: Some disgruntled GUNS N' ROSES fans make the comment
that the group's current lineup isn't GUNS N' ROSES, but is actually Axl
Rose's solo project. What is your response to that?

有些不爽的槍花迷覺得新槍不能算槍 只能算是艾叔單飛組的團 你怎麼說?

Thal: They're right in their own mind if it isn't GUNS N' ROSES as they
define GUNS N' ROSES. If you don't like calling it GUNS N' ROSES, call it
GN'R, and if that makes you feel better, then good. That's what I like to
call it — GN'R. If you feel GUNS N' ROSES is so strongly defined by the
members that were on its debut album, fine, call this GN'R and find something
else to cry about — something worthwhile. There's bigger problems in the
world than what a band is calling itself. Jesus, it's fucking rock 'n' roll.
We're just going out there, playing, and having a good time. Call it GN'R and
enjoy it, that's all. That's my suggestion if the name's really a problem for
anyone — if you wanna listen to GUNS N' ROSES, put on the "Appetite" album,
be happy, and if you wanna listen to GN'R, put on "Chinese Democracy" and
come to a show.

在他們的小腦袋裏面怎麼想都對啦 你可以叫它槍與玫瑰 也可以叫它GN'R
如果你覺得原始團員才算數 那就去哭哭吧
世界上有很多比團名更重要的東西
幹 這是他媽的搖滾樂耶 我們站出來開演唱會 然後大家都覺得很爽 不然還要怎樣
你要槍與玫瑰就爽爽的聽毀滅慾
你要GN'R就聽中國民主 然後來看演唱會

Ultimate-Guitar.com: So basically then, what you're saying is the following:
contrary to what some people say, whatever you call this band, it's still a
band?

所以你的意思是說 不管別人怎樣 這個團就是這樣?

Thal: Yeah. It has people that have been in the band for... I mean, Dizzy has
been in the band for a good eighteen fucking years or so, going on nineteen
years, and Tommy's been in for.. What? How long now? Eleven years is it? Or
ten years? I don't know — I lose track. But you have people that have been
there for a very long time, that have written songs, that have recorded
songs, and have toured, people that have done everything a band does. Again,
it's about entertainment and perception, not truth. The truth is it's a band,
just like many other bands that write and record and tour, but if people
don't wanna see that, it doesn't change what we are. It just changes how they
look at it, and that's fine. It doesn't make any difference, because we're
still a band going on tour, promoting the album of songs we wrote and
recorded.

是啊 有很多人待過這個團 Dizzy待了他媽的18年有吧 現在是第19年
Tommy大概也搞了10年 好像是吧 我搞不太清楚
反正基本上有一些人聚在一起很長一段時間
寫歌 錄歌 巡迴演唱 做了所有樂團該做的事情
我再說一遍 這是娛樂 不是要探求什麼了不得的真相
真相就是我們是一個樂團
不管別人怎麼看或說 都不會改變這一點
我們還是會繼續巡迴 做專輯 錄音
