I hope someday you do rip his lungs out.

AXL ROSE!! At last I'm seeing hate for such bands that outside the prog world, they are so praised and told to be AMAZING!! That's amazing! They suck!! (no offense, please)

I, somehow, have fun with Gene Simmons. Though, somehow similar with Axl, he thinks he's God of rock, and really he has not near being at least in heaven(, get it?) of rock.

I have to disagree with you (for once) as Gainsbourg Thumbs%20Upis a phenomenal musician, composer, yes with a twisted sense of humor like a French Zappa but should not be put in a same thread with guys like Rose or Simmons.or Rotten.
I do like almost all his songwriting fhe recorded under his name or for Jane Birkin until he went ''reggae'' which i didn't like.

Bono - just because, that's why Stern%20Smile
 
 
...having said that, I will be taking great pleasure in waiting 15 years after it's eventual release before buying Chinese Democracy.... assuming I'll still be alive by then.
What?

I would say:
 
1) Gene Simmons as biggest swine
2) Roger Waters as most arrogant
3) Lars Ulrich as biggest sellout
and
4) Axl Rose as biggest all-round jerk.

I got to relate the Gainsbourg story. He was on French TV and asked if he was afraid of anybody. The chain -smoking unshaven playboy casanova poet pulled out a large denomination Franc bill and burned it while everyone was looking on aghast . )As in most countries, its a crime especially publicly) The host kept telling him that he won't be able to deny it. Serge sneered back the French equivalent of f*** them . Live on TV LOL He also openly (and very crudely) proposed immediate sex with a famous female American movie star who was on the same show . Incredible.

is there any doubt?  Gene Simmons, though somehow he'd be the one I'd want to hang with more than anyone on that list.. they'd all be way too hip for me, and a few there would start drooling on my shoe and it would be embarrassing

These "gentlemen" have at one time or another displayed bad attitude, bad taste, bad vibes, supreme egos and just plain pure stupidity. There is a story behind each one , most really just to get in the press.
