  1. Reading comments on the articles popping up on Facebook there's a lot of negative people out there who have no interest in seeing them reunite.

    Crazy people. I was 3 when they played their last show. I'd kill just to experience those guys on the same stage. Hell, I'd be happy seeing Axl Slash and Duff and whoever the fuck else.

    Facebook cupcakes would be negative about a video of Christ's return. It means nothing.
    Or some people just have different musical tastes than you do?

    Are posters on here just t-rolls when they bad mouth other bands? Or are people only t-rolls if they don't like guns n roses?

    I haven't posted anything since all this reunion talk got seemingly serious because the whole thing makes me feel sick. Having supported the absolute fuck out of Axl and the core band that wrote Chinese and after years hoping Axl would come good on his promises to put out multiple records and phase the tired old shit out of the shows, the idea of him going out and playing EVEN MORE fucking shows promoting Appetite and Illusions is the most depressing fucking retarded bullshit I could imagine. As if enough causal fans haven't had the chance to hear all the fucking hits played in the same order hundreds of times in the last 14 years.

    And fuck all the people who haven't been to a Guns or Slash show in the past 14 years who will suddenly want to go and see them at Wembley Stadium to sing-a-long to Sweet Child and November Rain. I go for a fucking PISS during Sweet fucking Child i'm so sick of it. Then they might just pull out Better and 89,000 hipster tossers will check their Facebooks.

    Moreover, Axl has sworn time and again that he would never work with Slash. So if there ever is an announcement of Guns shows with Slash then there'd better be a bit in bold right at the top with Axl explaining just how he was so stubbornly myopically wrong about Slash being an evil, compulsive-lying cancer and also an explanation from Slash about why he's now willing to be an employee in Axl's touring jukebox.

    Personally, as much as it'd be great for Axl's mental health for him to make peace and get the Slash monkey off his back, all I want from him as an artist is to put the rest of his material out and tour it with the musicians who wrote and recorded it. But assuming he does put any of that music out we can be sure it wont include any of the songs that are about his contempt for Slash or his legal battles with Slash and Duff over the past 15 years. Which would be an enormous shame because that is some of the best shit.

    I bought Illusions they day they came out, I saw Guns in 1993 and I couldn't give a flying fuck about seeing Axl and Slash play a jukebox tour in 2016. I want Axl to be a fucking artist, just like he always wanted.

    Quite possibly the best post of the topic.

    The Axl and Slash Jukebox Tour. Brilliant.

    He forgot to credit Plant for that quote but OK
  2. Well Queen is headlining Rock in Rio Lisboa, Presale is suppose to begin on 20 Nov. So well lets wait for a few days or till the end of this month.....

    That isn't Queen. It would be like me saying I saw the Doors when they played as "The Doors of the 21st Century" about 15 years ago with Ian Astbury as the singer.
    Or like me saying I saw Guns n Roses in (anytime post 1993). When in reality it was Axl Rose solo.

  3. Fernando has one month left to make good on his "news in 2-4 months" statement, right? And someone claimed that Classic GNR at Rock in Rio would be confirmed in December, right? Sounds like this all may be lining up afterall! I guess we'll know for sure by the holidays. Should be interesting to see what comes of all this

    Maybe Fernando needs mommys permission to talk?
  4. I think there are many signs that point to a posisble reunion is in the works but IMHO it could depend on how much power Axl is will to concede to the others. Maybe Slash's stance has softened since he wrote his book but unless Axl treats them all as equals in any reunion does anyone think Slash will backdown and play subordinant to Axl? That ws on thing he has said must happen for any reunion to happen I believe.

    I get the impression some here think it is just a matter of the all agreeing to do it but I have a feeling it will be a very complicated deal to negotiate with all the old members before it can happen.

    We will know more later
  5. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh, this changes everything! Some guy said it's happening?? Well why didn't someone just tell me that!? If some guy says it, then I need to start looking into flights & accomodations ASAP.

    To be fair this guy is apparently some big deal Promoter in Argentina not some random Jabroni. Look at who he has promoted in the past. What is his incentive for lying? To rile up some nerds on a GN'R board? Maybe this guy is financially well off and doesn't care about spilling the beans. Since no band members are really talking,confirmation is likely to come from someone with connections to the Industry like this guy or Weiland or Durst.

    Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh, this changes everything! Some guy said it's happening?? Well why didn't someone just tell me that!? If some guy says it, then I need to start looking into flights & accomodations ASAP.

    I'm the biggest septic about a reunion, but i put my money on that if Daniel Grinbank says so.

    Fair enough. I guess it just seems like everyday someone "in the know" is claiming this is happening.

    ......If it doesn't happen in the next couple of years it never will.
    "next couple years"? Ahhhhh yeah- how about next 6-12 mos. No way Slash and Duff (presuming talks are under way) gonna wait that long (couple years). Those 2 live for now.....as in write/record/tour etc.... VS Axl/TB/Fernando who move at a snails pace. And as preposterous as this may sound- they don't need Axl, rather Axl and TB need them.
  6. I think I would need some new material played live at least to get me to the show. But for 90% just the chance to hear Axl sing the classics is enough.

    I'lm the 1st one to rip on any NuGuns however I'll always be 1st in line to see Axl perform. I just remind myself it's Axl Rose I'm seeing, not Guns n Roses. And yeah- other than Better and maybe SOD I don't need to hear any of CD.
