    But the thing is, he doesn't have to prove anything and when he doesn't feel like playing it note for note, he won't and no one is gonna make him. He doesn't even play his own stuff note for note, so why would he do someone elses?

    Well, just because you're a famous guitar player doesn't mean it's a pass to butchering the songs. 76 year old David Gilmour doesn't have to prove anything either.

    On the other hand I understand. When Axl sings like shit, why shouldn't Slash play like shit? People are gonna buy tickets regardless right?

    That they decided to not re-record those CD era songs from the ground up 

    I hope they don't. In particular Buckethead + Robin Finck solos on CD era material must stay as is. The structure of CD solos was something completely different than what Slash does. It just doesn't fit him both technically and emotionally.

    Hardschool & Silkworms were completely ruined in the new EP, partially due to the mix but also Slash's rewriting of guitar parts.

    However I'm all for brand new songs from the reunion trio.

    I feel like whatever follow-up in 2014-15 had to be out of desperation as the band was becoming less and less popular and people still wanted to see a reunion which eventually came. I can't imagine another few years of the Nu Guns without any material would go well.

    Nu Guns died in 2007. Imo nostalgia act had already begun in 2009. Axl's UYIish appearance + DJ Ashba. followed by graphic works of the band in final two years. Old logo and stuff.

    If you expect normality, don't post at mygnrforum. Or don't post at any niche forum dedicated to obscure interests at all. 

    Oh really sorry. I didn't know I'm in a "BDSM: Pink Pantone 111408 Leather Fans Only" forum.

    Thank you for your enlightenment!

    Besides the insult , you couldn’t be wronger. Funny how people judge others without knowing them.. 

    what are you going to enjoy? Hm? And btw: using afd fan as an insult really shows who you are.. AFD is only the best album of the band and prefered even by casuals but yeah what do AFD fans know 🤣

    I'm a fan of all eras of GN'R myself but definitely not a fanatic who views those liking NewGnr as 'not GNR fans'.

    You're entitled to your opinion regarding AFD being the best, but I don't think so. I'm more into UYI and CD.

    And that's completely fine? you know why? 'cause: free world!

    Btw the so called 'insult' was a reaction to the below. Although I don't see neither mine or Patrick's as insulting, one can judge which one was harsher:

    Well, what does he know? He thinks GNR was '98 - '02. :lol::facepalm: He's not a GNR fan, so he has no clue.

    So take a deep breath and calm your tits Karen.

    You said it's not normal for people to be excited. Who are you to decide what is normal or not for others?
    Is it so strange that people are excited to see their favourite band over the summer? What a bunch of weirdos, huh?!

    Please don't put words in my mouth. Read my post again or chill.

    Exaggerated excitement? Hahaha. If you're not excited and don't care to see them, that's fine too. To each their own. But why do you have a problem with others being excited? Makes no sense.

    I don't have any problem with excited people. Didn't write such a thing. I just shared my 'opinion' on how I can't understand it.

    The fact that it bothers you so much that I think you're all crazy, suggests to me that deep down, you know you're being taken for a mug. But alas, it's your money. Hope you have fun. 

    Nailed it mate! I couldn't've said it better myself. Thanks! let the war begin :lol:

    On a side note: I know what I said might have hurt some. But honestly I just wrote one single sentence against the current. And that being the exaggerated excitement many people show for the same concert /same setlist every year. It's just not normal. ok?

    now peace.

    I think Axl fell of a table in a strip club in Paris in 2012? At least that's what I somehow remember he said during one of the following concerts where I was at, but I can be mixing up things, I am not so sure.

    That was 2012 in Russia.

    That is a horrible looking shirt. Look like those bootleg shirts.

    All Nightrain membership shirts look horrible and made with the cheapest material. I own one unfortunately.

    Basically imagine those you buy to wear at home from 1-Dollar-All shops.

    If Guns had released anything, would they be fit to run for a Grammy? Why do you think they were never considered for the award! I think it's so odd they don't have a Grammy!

    Which one should win the award? Hard School or Absurd?

    And then these two flimsy singles gonna compete with new albums by Dream Theater's, Metallica's 72 Season, Rammstein's Zeit? lol

    To show how dire current mainstream rock is, they gave Ozzy Osbourne the Grammy for best rock album and with the exception of Greta Van Fleet none of the winners of that award since 2010 started in that decade. They even had Led Zeppelin win that award in 2014.

    That's so true. Well, at the end of the day, we're living in K-POP era.

    Grunge isn’t a music genre. Bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam are also considered hard rock. But it was called ‘grunge’ because that word became popular at the time.

    Generally I prefer not to really categorize music bands (and most type of modern art) with subgenres. In a broader sense you might be right and these bands could be rock (but hard rock? I don't know, I'm not good at labeling!).
    I'm sure you also do not want to fall into genre trap as well :-) 

    I really enjoy such discussions although this is becoming off-topic but keep it coming people!

    hard rock was still popular in many parts of the world throughout the '90's. Oasis was I guess you can call it mainstream british rock, catchy and heavily influenced by The Beatles. Eminiem didn't bulldozed what was left of rock, there was a shift to alternative rock, , MTV2 was a thing, a lot of bands other than just Korn and Limp Bizkit found success, but it was more modern with less guitar solos for the most part, there were The White Stripes, The Hives, The Vines, The Strokes, Black Label Motorcycle Club, At The Drive In,  Razorlight, Kaiser Chiefs, Arcade Fire, QOTSA got pretty big with Songs For The Deaf, etc. Rap became bigger, but rock and metal were still a thing, it's just that classic rock wasn't where the exciting shit was happening to a lot of people.

    in the mean time Iron Maiden released A Brave New World in 1999 and were kinda back, so post punk/alternative rock alongside rap and pop all had audiences and in 2004 even classic rock had a short comeback which Velvet Revolver were a part of. It also depends on which part of the world we're talking about cause in the UK a lot of stuff were happening with shit like The Libertines for example. Wasn't that sad imo. Also bands like The Darkness which didn't take themselves too seriously were part of it and it all happened between 1999 and 2005 give or take.

    I had to use the term 'classic rock' in my text, then it'll be more or less accurate.

    Also I was more talking about my perspective on what was going on in 1999-2000. Of course from 2002 onwards, the bands you've mentioned such as The White Stripes, The Hives, The Strokes etc, were constantly getting aired on MTV and VH1 alongside lollipops like Nickleback, Avril Lavinge, Christina, Dido and so on. So yea, softer, less serious (imo) versions of rock.
