Good thing Axl looked so much better when he turned up in Australia later last year, because you can't honestly say he looks good in that picture for being a damn sex icon 15 years earlier (other examples of early 90's hottest celebrities in the same age include Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt and others who have aged like fine wine). Someone who was not a dedicated fan wouldn't even recognize him.

OK, enough being superficial. It is just a bit hard to get over, his looks were like perfection!

Duff looks so great though. Like a different person, but great!

Well everyone looks different as they age, even if you get some kind of surgery, you can still see the difference.

I agree that Johnny Depp looks amazing, but I heard that Brad Pitt in person has the worst skin, so he probably wears tons of makeup.

I think Axl looks pretty good, but no one looks at 49 like they did at 25. It's the way things are. I'm sure Axl enjoyed his youth at the time, like all do, but age catches up with us all, my friend. Just keep a positive mind and stay active and enjoy your life and it will show on your face.

I think alot of Axl's current aging appearance is a result of the stress that comes along with no longer playing with the best band of all time. Playing with Slash again would probably be like a natural botox.

I really, really hope we get a reunion!

Then go and talk about it in the reunion thread.

Sorry, but for me GNR will always be Axl, Slash, Duff, Izzy, and Steve. I wouldn't care at all if the current lineup of GNR were to end tomorrow. I call those guys Pellet Guns N Pussy Willows.

I really, really hope we get a reunion!

The times right now are even more mysterious than before CD was released. No idea what to expect if anything.

They were originally going to be called NRA N' Flowerchildren.
