Silent Jay Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 (edited) Quote He’s also looking forward to recording his first album with Guns N’ Roses. “Everyone is excited about it. There’s a really magical thing now with the band. It feels like a new band,” Fortus says of the lineup, which since 2016 has included Guns N’ Roses veterans Slash and Duff McKagan. “It feels like the best version since I joined, and it’s the most fun for me. There’s so much excitement around it.” http://www.stltoday.com/entertainment/music/kevin-johnson/back-to-the-jungle-guns-n-roses-returns-with-st/article_0920ee4e-f067-5ac7-ac2f-6c3fd48c4196.html Edited July 24, 2017 by Silent Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Its Tino Posted July 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2017 Let's all do ourselves a favor and remain pessimistic. Fortus has been talking like this since he joined. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNRfanJen Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Honestly don't know how many times we've heard this at this point. If it happens, it happens, but I don't count on it. (Of course, I hope I'm very very wrong) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure he actually said or alluded to this. When you read through the whole piece that line could easily have been inserted by the journalist who made that assumption. If you remove that one line then read the 2 paragraphs of speech that went before and after he just sounds likes he's talking about the band, and how much they are enjoying the tour. There is nothing in quotation marks that mentions an album. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing in quotation marks that mentions an album. I just wanted to post this. His quote is not even in relation to a new album but just the line up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I think with GNR now with these band members could write an amazing new album. Let's hope after this tour, the guys get some rest and work on a new album. That would be magically and it would be awesome if Izzy could write with the guys again too.

But Slash needs funds right now, so touring isn't bad for a guy who loves the road and is setting up his retirement. Difference between Slash and Axl is Slash will write a song, release it and not care about public reaction. Axl will write a song, worry about the scrutiny and bury it somewhere in his backyard. Gnr just needs a Axl that is loose, having fun and can focus within the band instead of trying to navigate the outside world too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ragefan Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 That's bullshit. Richard may be like a child hoping Axl would like to make a new album but honestly that's sounds very unlikely with this lineup. Look. We have the original G'nR on one side and the new one on the other side. There is not the same complicity as in the uyi tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Rose Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I remember when he joined and Axl said (possibly in that 2002 summer tour press release/letter) how he was looking forward to writing some interesting things with Richard lol.
