gunsfanoldie Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 The original five is possible for a few shows, not for a 18 months world tour.Only in your mind. 18 months may be unrealistic, but they could certainly do a full tour. With someone filling in for all the not Appetite songs. Obviously, its clear Izzy doesn't want to.The REAL Guns N Roses fans are the ones who complained all throughout the Nu/Fake GNR years, and who still aren't happy with this "reunion". I'm sorry, but those are the REAL Guns fans, cause they know what they've wanted since 1996. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jekylhyde Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) I like this hybrid-idea and I consider myself as a real Guns fan. Edited January 9, 2016 by jekylhyde 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patience 4 Axl Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 The new gnr forum fascists are the unflinching supporters of this reunion. ''people only like Axl and Slash'', ''Adler is retarded'', ''stop moaning'' - discussion of a reunion is insufferable.It's kind of crazy, isn't it?! There are posters on here I've never seen before, debating other posters who have been pro -reunion for years. WTF? I've wanted a reunion since Slash left the band, I've wasted over a decade posting about it and being told stop living in the past, called a mullet head, and had "he's a cancer", "not in this lifetime" and "get on board or fuck off" quotes thrown at me constantly. And now that something is in the works, but I'm not necessarily thrilled about various speculation flying about, I've unknowingly become a hater. That's some funny shit.

aArief178 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 To be honest I totaly don't understand the idea of criticizing and buying tickets. The wheel is on your hands, if in all those years when nu-GNR were touring without releasing anything new all who didn't like the idea restrained from buying tickets and going to shows, Axl would have to release the album to financially support himself. It's as simple as that. On a free market it is you who decide.I didin't buy the ticket for the new band with no new record. I will, now, if they come anywhere near because I love that they reunited and support it wholeheartedly even without Steven and Izzy.To be honest all the arguments here and all of the uncertainity of the GN'R world and its fanbase is the main reason i read this forum. So, if everyone shuts up, then its no fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romeorose Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I think Izzy and Adler could do the 25 stadium dates they are talking about easy, if they just do it like this, let Izzy and Adler play all of the Appetite songs, and let Gilby and Matt play all of the Illusion songs. Bring in the new guns people for the CD stuff. I've been reading this forum off and on ever since day 1, probably what 2004 or so I don't remember, but I just registered recently when there was real talk about the GNR reunion, because now there's something to discuss, and I can't wait until the tour dates and real lineup is announced. I look out this forum like 50 times every day now just hoping to see Izzy & Adler confirmed, haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ak1nney Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I don't want multiple musicians playing on the tour. I'd rather have the hybrid of Axl/Duff/Slash/Fortus/Reed/Pitman play full shows and make it feel like a new version of the band. The thing is, we don't know what this is. If its just a nostalgic reunion and that's all its planned to be, then fine, bring on the interchanging band. I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maXx Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVA3aXZH8IcThat clip above just shows how crucial Steven is to getting the GNR feel, he may be immature (apparently) but no one can deny that this guy is irreplaceable. Even Izzy knew itthere's just so much to say about this, he's like an orchestral conductor, he fills the whole space, playing the negative as perfectly as he plays his beats, his timing is impeccable. and he does it effortlessly, loving every moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amir Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Must be a little weird for Axl now to have two bandmates who are both completely sober and spoken for. I know they partied separately for the most part during the UYI tour but I wonder how they're gonna celebrate together.Mario Kart?Monopoly?Charades?

Even Izzy knew itThat was cool. Really enjoyed it.Not a big Steven fan tbh, but that was sweet. Such simple drums, done effortlessly as you say, and the cymbal work is great. He also seems to have so much time and space. I remember learning drums as a kid and bought a LIES drum book - couldn't believe how simple it was yet totally engaging (pretty much gave up after a few years, but in jams nowadays when im dicking about on drums, I fall back on said beats a lot). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real McCoy Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 If I had to choose between Adler and Sorum, I'd take Matt, honestly.Steven doesn't really do anything for me. He'd look so out of place in a reunion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
