All in all kinda of reminds me of old times. It is worrisomely like old times, but I think the record company does want to release something with Slash on it, so there's hope.

axlslash Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I'll believe this when I see a source that doesn't start with the word "former." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IncitingChaos Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Axl is just going to fit CD2 lyrics into whatever they come up with. Slash's band doesn't even sit around and write songs together. It's easier to piece it together now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIST Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I just hope they don't go the reformed Aerosmith way with commercial shit like "pink" and "girls of summer". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bust it out during the encore or something.. Slash needs to get himself an #Ashbaswag beanie to replace that top hat ... hip, stylish, but still rock n' roll. And I believe Slash has recently re-connected with a certain someone who knows the proprietor of that website, and who should be able to hook him up with a 5% discount on the purchase. As for the topic itself, would be amazing news if true, obviously. I just don't see Axl as the kind of guy to just do a cash-grab tour. If he's back in and engaged, there will be new music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How fuckin' hilarious would it be if the lights go up in Vegas, and it turns out "Slash" s just Dj in a wig and tophat? Oh man I would laugh so fucking hard.

Archtop Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) I guess the idealist in me would love to hear that all members of the regrouping are jamming together and working on new material. To me that bodes well for great chemistry on stage. Realistically I'm probably greatly out of touch, and bands haven't needed to write in this way for a number of years. It seems to lack enthusiasm. However the fact that slash, Duff and Izzy have all reportedly been in a studio working on material is amazing. I am genuinely super excited to know what they are up to.

TheDemocracyRose Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I think Slash is working on stuff who he think should be GNR songs. And some of Axls stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSHGUNS Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I love Slash style with the hat... but thought the leather top hat was a bit too much, luckily I noticed he had stop wearing it recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faxl Rows Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Hoping for majority fresh stuff, but it would be nice if some of those infernal unreleased CD tracks get a Slash makeover. Atlas Shrugged and shit. Still want to hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick85 Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 If Slash is just adding guitar parts to tracks that already have vocals, then Axl would not be needed there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colossus of Rhodes Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I'll believe it when I hear it. One thing though - Unlike in the old days, you can be present in the studio via Skype, or similar tool. Sure not the same thing as being there in person, but I gather you can interact and/or just listen the boys play. And the boys play like motherfucker LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slash97 Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Yes. Makes sense for them to start making only a couple of songs to see how it goes, and if all goes well and they gel again, maybe we'll get an entire new album next year. I'm probably way too optimistic, but I can't help but feel ecstatic about this news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing him tweet about GNR, and having all this speculation about what he's recording for the band. The best was the pic of his guitar in rehearsals. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkarmy Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 there is no real guns n roses recording until Axl gets off his fat lazy ass and into the studio. Knowing slash is laying down tracks is as close to "new gnr" recordings as DJ saying he was laying down tracks for the next album. Axl simple has lost confidence in himself or the drive or will to put out new music. He doesn't rehearse with band, he doesn't join the band for jams/writing sessions. He's a self conscious hermit and occasionally pops out of the cave. I mean I'm going to Vegas because I believe the dude can do but I as excited as I am to see Slash and Axl on stage again, I'm equally disappointed that I think this sounds the death gong for any new GNR music.

"some" songs were created in the van and the band hideout as you can read in their respective bios, but many songs were made with Axl nowhere to be seen. and why would he? he doesnt play an instrument. he's the singer. why did CD took so long? cos he didnt have music. now, he has.
