  1. I guess Steven was never the smartest of them all to say it politely (remember Duff's jokes about how they wouldn't take him to the navy?) and after all those years of drug abuse his brain has deteriorated so much he's level is like that of a 10 year old now. Sadly. I like the guy as I like all the original guys but not much is left of him anymore.

    If there ever was a reunion I'm afraid Steven wouldn't be a part of it. It would probably kill him so for Steven it's better if reunion never happens. Unless the guys would be considerate enough to take him along with another reliable drummer and let him play a couple of songs while he's capable. But when it comes to the music and business side of things they're not very forgiving so I'm not even sure they would go that far as to take him at all...

    As for Izzy, I strongly believe that if the band was to reunite he'd be there immediately. God only really knows for how long but I'm pretty sure he'd be there. So if there was a reunion the lineup would be the original minus Steven I think.

    I guess Axl would do something with Matt rather than Steven, but man Steven is really awesome, I saw him playing in Adlers Appetite and he really rocked, He is sober now and he can play very well, so If a reunion happens, which i know it wont, but IF it happens then Steven should be a part of it, I would want to see him playing some songs from the illusions albums like YCBM

    Steven might be awesome, he used to be at least and I believe you though I haven't heard him lately but is he reliable enough? I guess noone can ever be sure at what time he falls of the wagon again :question: That's why I think they wouldn't go with him IF a reunion was to happen which I agree is highly unlikely. If he stays sober though for real who knows? IF a reunion was to happen than probably in 20 years cause Axl obviously still needs more time and if Steven is sober for 20 years then I guess he can be trusted. :lol:

    That's the thing. Steven really hasn't maintained sobriety for any appreciable length of time up until now, and he hasn't shown the ability to tour consistently even with small venues.

    He mentioned in his interview that he has been sober for like 400 days or something, If he were to play with guns n roses, right after mr brownstone, like the 3rd song in the setlist he would be high.

  2. If you do not get Izzy you really are just getting a half arsed circus version of GN'R (like the 1992-3 band) since he is the one who wrote much of the material. That song Axl is singing, Patience? Well you can remove that from your setlist for a start. Sweet Child has to go also since he wrote the chords. I just do not understand why anyone would minimise Izzy's contribution. Izzy is the only guy to have walked from that band with his integrity 100% intact.

    IF axl was only allowed play songs he wrote the set list would be:

    Estranged

    This I love

    Street of dream

    November Rain

    Dont Cry

    Most the songs are axl and izzy, a few are with the other band mates.

    Whichever one has Axl.

    Like it or not, you are always better off with the voice of the material everyone knows.

    even when axl voice is not too good some shows, its still unbelievable and sound a lot like the studio.

  3. If you had to go watch a 3 hour show of Guns N Roses material, which lineup are you going to see?

    Myles Kennedy

    Slash

    Duff

    Gilby

    Frank Sidoris

    Todd Kerns

    Brent Fitz

    Axl

    Duff OR Izzy

    Dizzy

    DJ

    Bumblefoot

    Richard

    Chris

    Frank

    Axl

    Duff OR Izzy

    Dizzy

    DJ

    Bumblefoot

    Richard

    Chris

    Frank

    Slash is coming my town at festival (rock on the range) I'm not going. Guns n roses were at that festival in 2014 and i saw them.

    And also do you want to hear November rain, estranged, don't cry, you could be mine, and possible a new song? or would you rather see slash and some dude play welcome to the jungle, paradise city then some other songs that nobody has ever heard of? Im going to take the ballad and heavy rock show of axl and his band guns n roses

  4. On my count for album releases (including EP)

    AFD

    Lies (this was a legitimate release and it was successful, but does it count)

    UYI I & II (1 record)

    TSI (this one I'm not sure)

    Chinese.

    They still owe more records but... I highly doubt that they will release 2 to 3 more albums of original music.

    They have already announced CD 2 and CD 1 remix. One album with original work and another with remix from last album. I don't expect them to have a Chinese democracy 3 or 4 but I DO except a CD 2 and remix album.

    Fuck me, I've just vomited.

    whats wrong with the tweet

    Beta is part of the management team, the same management team that won't release new music or convince Axl to release new music, therefore Beta = devil.

    So, do you know for a fact that the reason we haven't had any new music since 2008 is because of the management team (Beta and co)?

    It's a serious question. There's a lot of hatred towards Team Brazil around here, and I don't know how fair or justified that is... it seems most people regard them as evil, but I don't really know why.

    Is there something they have or haven't done to deserve this?

    Because

    a. they show open contempt for the fans: 'complaints complaints complaints', 'now we don't have to release new music' etc.

    b. they're full of shit - '3 hour meeting' announcements etc. that yield nothing

    c. all that the band has done under their management is stagnate, fall apart and put out an embarrassingly shitty DVD

    d. there's a good argument to be made that bands should be managed by professionals with experience in the music industry and not your former nanny and her kid.

    Its great what she did for axl in the 90s but she shouldn't be running guns n roses. Del and Axl should be.

  6. Izzy is probably string in a mansion with his wife doing what he does. I don't think a reunion will happen if it did the lineup would probably be:

    Axl

    Slash (or bbf if axl and slash don't get along)

    Duff

    Steven adler (or matt)

    Gilby clark

    in a recent interview, izzy said that he would take part to the reunion if it happened

    Yeah if izzy did a reunion it would only be a tour. For example when izzy had a reunion with axl and gnr in 2006 he only played a few shows. He left gnr because it got to popular.

    Izzy left GNR cause he couldnt take Axl's shit anymore, he was fed up of Axl coming late to shows and other members being on substances, none of them had the bond cause they were busy with themselves, when Izzy joined for a few shows in 1993, he said that hardly anyone was talking to him and he felt very lonely, but well its the same thing with Axl's band today, all the members are on hired contracts and Axl/TB is the one who makes all the decisions, even the classic line up had problems, but they did live and spent time like a family unlike now, but well Izzy is a strange person, he is in good terms with Axl, Duff and Slash, but well Izzy just does what he wants to do and when he wants to do

    I think Axl finally accepted Izzy leaving when he arrived with lawyers demanding $$$ from Axl and the band for money he thought he was owed, Adler did the same, took the band to court. Once these guys started being successful, it became less about a gang of dudes having fun playing music in clubs and then into stadiums and then it became all about the $$$, they all felt they were entitled to a slice of the pie, bigger slice in there drug addled brains.

    I do agree with you, when they became big, the communications were through lawyers and managers, Doug Goldstein was a snake in the sleeve who kept on filling crap in Axl's mind, it had nothing to do with Izzy, but im just telling u generally, I dont know if u have seen Goldstein's letter to Axl asking for forgiveness, it was all about the $$$$$

    Yes, he left because in 1990 the band became a company basically. By 1995 to be in the band=contract. Now not saying thats bad but somebody like izzy probably does not like that

    Why not? Axl needs a real women in his life, beta is the real reason this new album has been in production since 2012? and that CD as been since 1999-2008? satan BETA IF YOU READ THS, LET EM MAKE MUSIC!!

  8. Izzy is probably string in a mansion with his wife doing what he does. I don't think a reunion will happen if it did the lineup would probably be:

  9. Lol. Axl doesn't need them. I really like new guns n roses. I don't have the classic lineup and the second classic lineup but i really do like new gnr

    If Axl doesnt needs "them", by "them" if ur referring to the old members who made Appetite and Illusions which made GUNS N' ROSES Famous, then well Axl should stop using the name and just name his band A.X.L

    Bitch please, We all know that 80% of those songs where written by izzy, axl, and del james. He doesn't need them now because he already has their replacements, also that lineup made axls life hell, thats why he disappeared from the public for 7 years. The old members just made illusions, the classic made appetite, the original (tracii guns, axl, rob, and izzy) just made songs

  10. I wrote a song about Axl and Slash:

    At first I was afraid, I was petrified

    Kept thinkin' I could never sing without you by my side

    But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong

    And I grew fat

    And I got into techno and rap

    And so you're back at 4 am

    I just woke up to see you there on my CCTV cam

    I should have changed my stupid home

    I should have moved to a new hood

    If I had known I’d have to face my past like a man should

    Go on now go, drive off this road

    Just turn around now

    'Cause you're not welcome anymore

    Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with the media game?

    Did you think I'd crumble?

    Did you think I'd give up the GNR name?

    Oh no not I, I like to eat pies

    Oh, as long as I can play Brazil, I know I'll stay alive

    I've got Vegas shows to do

    And DJ Ashba’s a buffoon

    And I'll survive

    I will survive

    It took fourteen million dollars not to fall apart

    Kept tryin' hard to write an album about my broken heart

    And I wrote oh so many songs just feeling sorry for myself

    I used to shriek, but now my voice is too damn weak

    And you see me, somebody new

    I'm not that awesome singer who was in a band with with you

    And so you felt like dropping in, “let’s work it out, what the hell”

    But now I'm savin' all my lovin' for Beta, Fernando and Del

    Go on now, do your Superbowl

    Go play with Fergie

    'Cause you're not welcome anymore

    Weren't you the one who did all those interviews?

    Did you think I'd crumble?

    Did you think I'd reunite with you?

    Oh no not I, I will survive

    Oh, as long as I can get new players, I’ll keep touring Appetite

    I've got blood boiling and rage

    I take hours to get on the stage

    And I'll survive

    I will survive

    Heres two songs about slash that axl wrote:

    I won't be told anymore

    That I've been brought down in this storm

    And left so far out from the shore

    That I can't find my way back, my way anymore

    No I won't be told anymore

    That I've been brought down in this storm

    And left so far out from the shore

    That I can't find my way back, my way anymore

    No, I.. I

    Forgive that they teared down my soul

    Bless them that they might grow old

    Free them so that they may know

    That it's never too late

    For the many times that seemed like a memory

    I searched and found the ways you used to lure me in

    I found the ways,

    Oh, why it had to be

    Mired in denial and so afraid

    If we ever find it's true

    That we have the strength to choose

    Ooo Freedom or the chains

    We held together

    This songs about axl being so un educated or whats going on in guns n roses and how all his bandmates left him except paul and dizzy and he had to replace every one " I won't be told anymore

    That I've been brought down in this storm" is about fans telling him to stop because he isn't popular anymore because of slash leaving, he won't give gnr up. thats why he kept the name

    Song 2:

    You like to hurt me

    You know that you do

    You like to think in some way

    That it's me and not you

    (But we know that isn't true)

    You like to have me

    Jump and be good

    But I don't want to do it

    You don't know why I don't act

    The way you think I should

    You thought they'd make me

    Behave and submit

    What were you thinking

    'Cause I don't forget

    You don't know why

    I won't give in

    To hell with the pressure

    I'm not caving in

    You know that I got

    Under your skin

    You sold your soul

    But I won't let you win

    You talk too much

    You say I do

    Difference is nobody cares about you

    You've got all the answers

    You know everything

    Why nobody asked you

    It's a mystery to me

    I'm sorry for you

    Not sorry for me

    You don't know who in the hell to

    Or not to believe

    I'm sorry for you

    Not sorry for me

    You don't know who you can trust now

    Or you should believe

    You should believe

    You don't know who you can trust now

    Or you should believe

    You close your eyes

    All well and good

    I'll kick you ass

    Like I said that I would

    You tell them stories

    They'd rather believe

    Use and confuse them

    They're numb and naпve

    The truth is the truth hurts don't you agree

    It's harder to live with the truth about you

    Than to live with the lies about me

    Nobody owes you

    Not one god damn thing

    You know where to put your

    Just shut up and sing

    I'm sorry for you

    Not sorry for me

    You don't know who in the hell to

    Or not to believe

    I'm sorry for you

    Not sorry for me

    You chose to hurt those that love you

    And not set them free

    Not set them free

    You chose to hurt those that love you

    And not set them free

    You don't need

    Anybody else to be

    Sorry for you

    You've got no heart

    You can't see

    All that you've done for me

    I know the reasons

    You tear me apart

    The meaning of "just shut up and sing" was a quote from slash because axl does rants. "you choose to hurt those who love you" that means you left the band, the fans loved you. You should of not left the band.

  11. Each GNR drummer has a unique skill set. That being said Frank is at the bottom of any list.

    I'd bet the outside world probably thinks that Rock In Rio 2011 was the last thing that Axl did publicly.

    I think i take back what i say, if there was a list it would probably go like this

    1. Steven Adler (brillant drum music)

    2. Brain

    3. Matt sorum

    4. frank ferrer

    That being said each one plays appetite for destruction plus songs they wrote so none of them really "suck" but like you said the are all unique in their own way

    Axl should pray to die before Adler because otherwise Adler would haunt him with reunion

    BTW isn't it the time to send Adler to the island called Reunion? It's near Madagascar. He could find his piece of mind there

    Damn no one wants a reunion more than steven. If i were axl i would probably fake my death just so he would stop asking for a reunion. Duff seems pretty cool about it because he does what he wants, just goes and plays with current gnr. Izzy is probably string in a mansion with his wife doing what he does. I don't think a reunion will happen if it did the lineup would probably be:

    Axl

    Slash (or bbf if axl and slash don't get along)

    Duff

    Steven adler (or matt)

    Gilby clark

  12. He possibly won't see him again. Axl's said in the past that he "becomes the bad guy" very quickly in Steven's eyes because he won't ever consider a reunion, which is basically everything Steven ever wishes for.

    Forget steven. As underrated frank ferrer is, frank is more than capable or playing new songs and alders songs. Reunion won't happen, you are right, thats just want steven wants. apparently axls iq is like really high and he seems pretty smart if he single handedly kept a band alive for over 25 years.

  13. http://ultimateclassicrock.com/steven-adler-hasnt-seen-axl-rose/

    Steven Adler is on record as being in support of a reunion of the classic Guns N’ Roses lineup, but that doesn’t mean he has any special influence over bandleader Axl Rose.

    In fact, as Adler admitted during a recent conversation with Eddie Trunk (which you can listen to below), the former GNR drummer has no way of getting in touch with Rose these days. “The whole reunion thing, I would love to do it just because there’s two decades of new fans who’ve never seen what the magic was,” he said. “I would love to be able to show them, but you know, that’s Axl’s call.”

    But when the possibility of reaching out to Rose via email was raised, Adler responded, “No, I don’t even have his phone number. I can’t text him. I just say prayers for him; I have no idea what he’s doing. I hope he’s well.”

    The former bandmates were last in touch nearly a decade ago — 2006, according to Adler, when he and Rose connected in Las Vegas. “We drank a $3,000 bottle of tequila, we hugged and we made our amends to each other — it was wonderful,” he recalled. “I hadn’t seen him for 15 years before that, so it was really nice just to be in the room with him. I just keep hearing that he has this thing with Slash. I hope not, because it’s too old already. Time goes on, we’re too old. We’ve got to move on. If he has resentments, I hope he doesn’t, that’s all. I love him and I love all those guys.”

    Adler has good reason for feeling all those good vibes, too — he shared the best news of the interview when discussing his recently reclaimed sobriety, which suffered a setback in 2013. As of their March 2 conversation, Adler told Trunk, “I have 423 days sober.”

  14. How come nobody thought of this one? Easily the best YCBM since the '90's

    Why can't he go see his voice trainer again? I think he will because they are doing a new album so he will have it good for the album and some touring soon :)

    Put up a NU GNR You Could Be Mine....against this...

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3BPH799Js0

    Axl was possessed!!

    Yes by the cocaine !

    Well first of all this is a proshot and the one from 2010 is not, second of all this was when the use your illusion tour was going on so they had to make it as perfect as they could. Like for example, the back round singers from this tour. they were gone in 1994 and never seen with axl again.

  15. Yes touring 2011 to may 2014 was weak, didn't suck just not as good as past shows. But vegas 2014 was awesome


    Huh, no love for If the World?

    http://youtu.be/XFDXrum9lMs


    As instrumental, the song is fine. Axl's vocals and absurdly awful lyrics ruin it. If you turn your brain off and ignore the terribly awful lyrics, the 2010 live version of the song was great.
    True! While I hate the album version of ITW, as an instrumental I really like it.

    I really like if the world. Axl did say "it meant to suck" I like the live version better though and don't mind lyrics
