MSL strikes me as the type who is dying to regain his glory days as the top "insider" for GNR so he'd go to great lengths to say whatever he can possibly say to rekindle such attention. Also, has anyone noticed that he seems to have a pretty intense Axl bias?

EXTREME BIAS!! 

Got to admit i know nothing much about the whole Nuguns period, i have seen that most seem against Team Brazil, it is a bit weird her starting out as Axls girlfriend's son's babysitter and then a manager?

Old school footage for sure.. Not too crazy about the sounds of a new album with Melissa, Frank and Fortus.

I think we may be alone in that opinion?

Keep the big screen and have the rest as 93 Skin n Bones style.

Sometimes less really is more.....imo

It's obvious they like to cover other bands. I could get behind them doing a "Spaghetti 2" sometime, but until then. They should stick to the covers they've already recorded and released IMO. But scrap LALD, instead play Mama Kin, play Nice Boys, play Aint it fun, play Sympathy etc.  

Not Sympathy.....thats the sound of a band breaking up!

what do they think of Axls singing now?

i chose the holy grail,I've always wanted to see that stuff.

im a bit worried that any new stuff might be a bit CDish and thats not for me.

they done Honky Tonk Woman in 93 and that was cool!

The times I've been to see GNR it was with Matt playing and they were excellent concerts 91,92 and 93. Never saw them with Steven and never wanted to see Axls new guns so I never knew who was the drummer/drummers were then.

I really liked Matt on drums....just saying

We can agree he wants to be involved based on his twitter posts right?

We can agree he's done guest spots with GNR for every tour right?

We can agree a stipulation of his was that Adler would play?

We see from multiple reports that Adler was supposed to play. Izzy denied involvement before Adler hurt himself but after Adler was on board, which leaves 3 possible outcomes for why he isn't playing.

1) He wanted original lineup only (makes no sense as he's played/guested with every lineup since 1985)

2) He wanted a full time spot and no Richard (makes no sense because of course Axl is going to play chidem songs which he'd have no interest in/ability to play)

3) He got lowballed while everyone else makes massive amounts of cash. Alternatively he wanted to be an additional spot alongside Richard. Either way they denied a full time slot and/or $ to a founder who wanted to return for fear of over splitting the pie.

I can't agree with what you are saying because I don't know the true facts,there are a lot of assumptions and opinions but not facts.

Izzy has said not at this time and a lot of cryptic tweets which can be perceived different ways by different people.

I do appreciate your passion for Izzy and I also hope he does join even though we don't know how long 'this' will last.

You don't know that it's about money,nobody knows except Izzy.

Good point, had Slash just overdosed and died like a true rockstar when his heart stopped I wouldn't have to waste my time explaining this to you. Isn't even an argument, it's like a 40 year old explaining the birds and the bees to his 10 year old son. You're too young for this talk, we'll try again in a few years!

Do you hate the  whole band? 

Why so angry?

LOVE THOSE GUYS!!!

I've never heard Chinese Democracy.......perhaps i might try.Not today though.

The Holy Grail of videos...illusions tour films??

Yeah, it's not bullshit.  How many stadiums did nuGNR sell out on their own?  Thought so.  It's obvious Axl wasn't really making bank on those arena tours trying to sell no name musicians as Guns.  I was at half filled shows.   And those CD songs died a quick death on the radio and charts despite the so called plenty of fans it had.  Even Axl dropped most of them from the setlist because no one was interested.  

This band has always been about nostalgia, even while Axl continued his half baked effort to change that.  His willingness to once again play with a guy he called a cancer is a testament to that.  You don't need to be a mullet head to think the best version of this band was the classic lineup.   And liking CD surely doesn't  make anyone cool, edgy or modern.  Seriously, wtf.

just got my membership as i used up my likes.

Patience 4 Axl i agreed so much i spent money on membership lol

Did anybody notice that Slash has gone back to wearing his old style hat and not the ugly plastic one he's been wearing for the past few years? Just another awesome little detail about this.

he has worn that one for ages now,he hasn't worn the leather one this year

If Izzy were there then definitely Dust n Bones (with Slash doing the vocals like the old days!)

Ok just caught up with the vids and threads, Thank you to ALL who posted stuff!! Ive had a great evening in front of my computer (weird i know ) 

I love this feeling of community right now! 

love and peace to you all (except the occasional negative dicks)

Great mods here too

I will say this about him.  It's about time a millionaire in his 50's dresses a little better for a big performance than just grabbing an old tshirt from his hamper.

Thats his style on or off stage and i love it
