    Not sure how this is surprising to some.  Slash and Duff will release music — when they're not touring with Gn'R.  The idea of Axl trying to work on something new after Chinese Democracy is impossible for me to grasp.

    He knew and knows that the money is in playing with Slash again, not in a new album.  He won't release shit, he doesn't have to.  The current tour has generated enough revenue for him to retire and his fans keep on giving him their money.  Again and again.

    "He sounds like shit? Don't care.  Keep taking my money, Axl, but I will sure as fuck cry and moan when you deny us the possibility of hearing new music!"  That doesn't sound rational to me.

    In the end, and at aleast for me, is better to think that this band is still dead, and all I have is the great bootlegs from the 90s, that I can listen to, again and again, but for free.

    As for how to change her face, that's probably not something that can be explained other than, well, it just happens to those who study at the House of Black and White.  Does the show ever explain how burning Danny with dragon eggs produces dragons?  No.  We just accept and move on.  To get hung up on the trivial I think misses the point. 

    Word.

    Are we too hard on Guns?

    I never expected Rose to play alongside Slash ever again.  Sure, Axl sounds weak, Izzy should be there, Frank is garbage, etc., but man, Slash is there, Duff is there — not even in my wildest dreams I would have imagined that ever happening.  For me to see and hear Slash playing songs like Coma, Estranged, November Rain is reason enough to be happy, as a fan of this fucked up, dysfunctional band.

    That said, I don't think people are being "too hard" on the band.  As always, there seem to be some kind of people that feel entitled to dictate what you can or should post in the forum.  I am happy with the results of the reunion, and in no way the "this sucks" type of comments detract me from enjoying what I want to enjoy.

    In the days of Axl cover band, the criticism was 400% more present in the forum.  Others, including me, fought day and night for the right of posting and voicing our genuine opinions without censorship and most of the mods supported us.  So, if people's genuine, sincere, honest, authentic opinion is that the band sucks or Melissa Reed shouldn't be there, let them say it.  If their opinions are making you unhappy and go apeshit on your keyboard, full of rage, then the joke is on you.
