Slash on the other hand..... Couldnt disagree more...Duffs tone is VERY recognizable, and that tone is meant for every GnR tune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allwaystired Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I wonder what the general reaction will be if these dates don't include any new material? Will it put the nail in the coffin for people in terms of new music, or just lead them to expand the goalposts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I certainly wouldn't be, but there seems some very, how shall we put it, 'optimistic' opinions out there from people who are perhaps a little more naive. It'll be interesting to see how those sorts of people react, should nothing happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who's followed this band pre-reunion should know the drill by now. Rumours of weight loss and then Axl comes out larger than ever. Pics of new/rare track on the alt setlist, which never make their way onto the main set. Those are my 2020 expectations for GNR.

betterman Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 (edited) - Roll On 2 You 2 - Feelin' It 3 - War Schemes (Seconds) 4 - Monster Of Soul 5 - Benny & The Jets 6 - Shrugged 7 - Hundred Skies 8 - Forgotten 9 - Here Today 10 - Riders Out Of Sight 11 - Hard School ?

Dean Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 The biggest obstacle that Axl Rose has faced in the grand scheme of things that has resulted in Guns N' Roses to have released so little music is none other than Axl Rose. My biggest downfall is that I still believe Axl has it in him to beef up that back catalogue with brilliant music and if anything, the Village Session leaks have only cemented this belief. What a talented motherfucker. In my opinion, best songwriter of his generation and not many rival him in terms of being a frontman, but he doesn't half do himself a grave injustice with the lack of creative output. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will it put the nail in the coffin for people in terms of new music, or just lead them to expand the goalposts? I've said in over the past couple of years and I'll stand by it: I do not believe GN'R will release any new music until after Axl passes. As always, I'd love to be proven wrong, but that's been my stance since about late 2016. "Insiders" on GNR forums mean nothing to me and haven't for about 20 years lol. So I put no stock or hope into any rumors going around at any given time. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the shows I saw in 91, 92 & 93 we were always very seriously considering what we'd do if Axl didn't bother to show up. I've never had another concert experience like that lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's your opinion and I appreciate that, bit I wouldn't put Axl in the conversation for greatest songwriters. Singer yes, and yes he has written and helped write great songs but he has very little material and the quality control on some of it goes from 0-100 dreadful -exceptional. Compare him against artist like Jerry Cantrell, Chris Cornell, Metallicas, not to forget all the other non rock/metal artists out there too who have released consistently brilliant music throughout their careers. Like a lot of people have said, if he would just release music then maybe he could be considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like a lot of people have said, if he would just release music then maybe he could be considered. Opinions obviously differ but IMO the artists mentioned above don't hold a candle to the material written by Axl Rose. That's just my opinion. Metallica, Soundgarden etc never ticked any boxes for me. Even outwith that, I don't think there's been any bands/songwriters this side of the Millennium that rival him either. I'm a big Queen fan and I've said the past few years that the only thing that stops Axl from being the best frontman is the lack of material he has released. For the length of time he has performed in a live setting, juggling GN'R with AC/DC when I don't think many people could have filled those massive shoes - it automatically puts him up there with the best of them IMO. But again, lack of material prevents him topping it for me. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or was it just from "Fernando" saying 6 months? An "insider" from another forum made the claims. They're already using the "plans changed" and "Axl is making too many demands" excuses to cover though. Same source said a NITL blu-ray was coming by the end of 2019 as well. So, as usual, the "insider" information means nothing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
