If guns had reunited in 2006 where would they be now?


Recommended Posts

CD would be the same, except Slash would have re-recorded the parts with his "feel" and solos. Think the live versions of the CD songs that Axl makes Slash do now, but in the studio.

CD would have sold a lot better due to the hype of the reunion....I mean regrouping. Not that it matters since they sold the album to Best Buy. By now, 10 years later they'd probably have broken up because once the novelty wears down they'd be an arena rock band again and not a stadium group, so they wouldn't have the obscene amounts of money on the line to keep them honest with each other. At the same time, maybe GNR would finally be dead since Axl wouldn't exactly be able to go back to a NU-GNR lineup after opening the pandora's box of having Slash back in the group.

I doubt they'd stay together long enough to get another album out after touring CD. Too hard to split the dough. 

2006-Reunion tour+Finck leaves the band or doesn't re-join or whatever it was. Huge hype, big stadium shows ala what happened at the beginning of the actual reunion. 

2008-CD released w/Slash

2008-2010-Tour CD to diminishing crowds similar to what is happening now at the tail end of this tour but more pronounced. Solid arena shows, but not like the sold out stadiums. 

2010-GNR doesn't renew Slash's contract, Axl hides in his mansion while listening to Lana Del Ray songs. 

2017-GNR use their final cash cow of reuniting the AFD 5 to tour and play Appetite live.

just imagine

Axls '06 killer voice and a monster on Les Paul... That would be fuckin amazing..

Why does it matter though if they are just gonna tour the same set list of 20 year old at the time songs. At most, we'd get Slash on CD songs. What are the odds they would actually release an album of original music written by Slash+Axl?
