Ralphelmo Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 ChD suck like freakin black hole then. They rehearsed Slither. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Jay Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 You may not like it but still Chinese is a GN'R album. VR and that Conspirators thing are just bands that seemed to happen just as Snakepit or Loaded. Dreadful stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kickingthehabit Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 So many people dispute it as a real GNR album, though. You can talk technicalities but it's not fair to ignore that part of its history. To a lot of people Chinese Democracy is The Phantom Menace. I thought for sure they would have played Slither by now.

Ralphelmo Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I won't take you out from your your comfort zone: ChiDem is great and was recorded by the greatest band in the world with the most badass singer of all time. Now, if you're pleased, this pointless fanboi discussion is over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 They should play some VR stuff. I like CD better, but VR suits this new band well. Perhaps they're holding it back cuz Slash and Duff were on rocky ground with Weiland when VR broke up and then he died and shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modano09 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Because they won't change the set list or let Steven be the full time drummer or pay Izzy like an equal partner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that. The Phantom Menace observation. They share a lot of similarities I think. I strongly believe Chinese will do more over time, if not already. Majority of rock fans changed their mind on Chinese, and all over the world people like certain songs. Just as Star Wars nerds will start to believe The Phantom Menace was not that bad compared to the new Disney astrocities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewbacca Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) Phantom menace, eh? This means this band will release another medíocre (critically panned) album, before landing a decent one, then they will break up again, except this time Axl will be fired and the rest of the band will find a new singer and give us an album that will be favored by critics and fans alike.

Jeez Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Maybe because CD is an album from the band he is currently playing in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Cavalerra Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Probably because Slash keep them for SMKC, what else they gonna play? Covering GNR again while Slash already back on GNR? That would be pretty stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocArunas Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 What does it say on the on the CD cover? GNR, correct. Does it say that on the VR stuff? Nop. There is you answer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megaguns1982 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I reckon if they reworked ghost and let Axl lay some lyrics over it youd have a bad ass song 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphus Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Because Axl is in charge. Slash and Duff made the effort and learned the songs on their own. I don't see Axl cranking up Slither and learn songs writen by a guy who once called him names. It would be cool if they played something from Slash 2010 solo record. Or anything from Ain't Life Grand. Awesome album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovim Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) Axl said his favorite material to play live now is Chinese tunes. Sounds kinda different compared to Spay. Edited November 5, 2016 by Rovim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Słash Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Cause Axl is too Lazy to listen and Rehearse new songs unless Agnus tells him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's great to hear the guys back, but it's still Axl's new version of Gn'R. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildStar Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Slash N Duff have really beefed up Better. I love the intro they do. It was a great song made even greater. Slither was on the rehearsal list. I would have liked Axl to do it as a one off. He does plenty other covers. VR were amazing, Chinese Democracy is amazing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towelie Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Cuz Axl wouldn't do it. Axl swallowed his pride enough to make this reunion happen. In exchange, Slash swallowed his pride enough to play CD material, so there even Stevens. Ain't no way Axl's gonna throw Slash a bone by playing music from Slash's solo projects.

Sunset Gardner Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 because axl is a child and slash and duff need to be very careful and choose their battles as to not upset the child. the child doesn't like resistance and not getting his way.
