AMAZING!

You know what sucks guys? Everyone is going on about how amazing Axl sounds on the AC/DC stuff...

i haven't heard so much love for his voice in GNR. 

But in the end I just can't see him kicking Guns. I mean it is HIS band after all...

Even for the AXL/DC haters among the GN'R crowd, this has got to be a good sign. Some of the persistent grievances about Axl that many GN'R fans have had, have been his (supposed) 'dictatorial' behavior in the past, lack of interest in publicity, lack of appreciation for bluesy hard rock, lack of interest in putting out new music, not catering to fan sentiment etc. This stint with AC/DC just has to give him a different perspective on so many things. Even as a big Axl fan who has been content to let the man just do his own thing at his own pace, I am very excited at the possibility that all of this will push Axl out of his comfort zone and give him an appreciation for the way things are done differently with a band like AC/DC. This could end up having a big influence on Axl (and by extension, GN'R), even if you take into account the changed circumstances around Slash and Duff rejoining GN'R. Even for the gloom and doom-ers who think that his voice is going to be shot, leave aside your pessimism and just look at all the long term effects this could have. Axl is going to have a direct look at how a band that does things really differently operates. AC/DC's press, tour and publicity machines are huge. They are led by their lead guitarist. They have a mammoth international fan base that is a fair way bigger and demographically deeper than GN'R. Even if some (or many) of the fans don't accept Axl, the AC/DC way is bound to rub off on him. While they haven't exactly been prolific, Acca Dacca have been much better at releasing music (okay, not all of it has been at their best level), touring, doing publicity, interviews, doing press, etc. than GN'R. I have really, really wanted to hear the rest of what Axl has in the CD vault (with or without Slash's input). But, maybe this will push him to do some hard, bluesy Rock N' Roll with Slash, that they both can work in agreement on. There seem to be so many potential upsides to this, that as a GN'R fan, you'd be have to be blind or willingly put on a blindfold to ignore them. C'mon folks, let's all get on board with this!

It already started.  :heart:

"The rehearsals have been really, really cool.  Now I know the benefits of rehearsals for the first time in my life." - Axl

HaHa thanks. I think we've only seen the beginnings of how this could change many things for the better.

I was wondering how Slash and Duff are taking this thing if they're pissed off that they have to wait for Axl playing with AC DC...

Yeah, I was wondering if that is precisely the reason why Slash seemed so disengaged and generally "not happy enough" at the beginning of this reunion. I'd say if any of the dates or plans were rescheduled in any way, he's probably pissed off. If not, he's probably still pissed off, only less. I mean he's been preparing for that for what? Two years or so. Only to learn Axl is joining AC/DC after the first 6 dates :lol:

yes i think the same but  it was probably the only way to get back in GNR to accept Axl's terms lol

You couldn't make it up. You really couldn't

The GN'R reunion has been rather forgotten about by the media also. Luckily the first nights have sold well.

Rose has Slash and McKagan on gag orders also so it is not as if they can pass the time conducting interviews with guitar magazines about the reunion. All Slash can do is sit with his dick in his hand posting skeleton porn.
