Graeme Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Cue people getting their hopes up, ignoring this and continuing to speculate... Then a shitstorm of disappointment when this turns out to be exactly what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then a shitstorm of disappointment when this turns out to be exactly what happens. I'd like to thank Del James for taking time out of his writing and tour management time to reassure the fans.

ironmt Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 It's pretty much a big fuck you to all the fans that supported this band since 1987 and put them In the R&R HOF. It doesn't have to be difficult, play a song or two together, shake hands and walk away, never to see each other again. I am not picking on Axl and If this turns out to be true, can you guess which member wasn't willing to go along with giving the fans a ten minute performance?

ohmygod Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I respect that 100%. In my eyes if Axl would perform with the old members it would be a huge slap in the face to the guys who have been in GNR since the late 90's early 2000's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITW 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I bet you HALL OF FAME GNR (minus Axl and Dizzy) will get up and play something at the Hall of Fame. Axl shouldn't even bother showing up if he's not willing to sing a song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RonMexico82 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 It is a huge slap in the face to the fans that got them into the RNRHOF. Without the old band you wouldn't have the current nostalgia tour that features the majority of the old bands music. And we all know who doesn't want to play.

You don't get to have it your way. In fact, it could be argued that the most Rock N' Roll thing to do is to not perform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNFR2003 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I believe that maybe the thought as of today--but if anyone has learned anything about GN'R over the past 25 years, it is to expect the unexpected. I still believe they will end up playing a song or two together. Once they all have to get in a room together, and finally realize the 15 year spat wasn't worth it, they will realize that playing a song or two isn't undoable. Just my opinion, not that it matters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITW 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I'm calling it right now. Steven Tyler will show up and sing some songs with Slash, Duff, Izzy and Steven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Slash, Duff and Steven will definitely play. I had my doubts about axl. It'd really be very bad for current GnR if he did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmo Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Where did Del say this anyway?I think after one let down after another for over 2 years, maybe it was time for them to actually not disappoint fans miserably? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd really be very bad for current GnR if he did that.How exactly would It be bad If he gave the crowd(the fans) a ten minute performance to say thanks for supporting us for the last 25 years. I'm not trying to start a war, I am just curious as to what makes you think It would be bad for current GNR. Hell by the sounds of It they are In favor of It.

Without these oringinal members these guys would not have a job. Imean this with no dissrespect to thenew members as I think they kick ass and gnr now is agreat band. The fact of thematter is the oringinal guys have to play some tunes I mean its rock n fuckin roll do it for the fansman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys in the band now don't seem to have a problem with the old band playing. Why should they? They're not the sensitive pussies you think they are.
