Does anybody else think that the only thing that's holding New GNR back from gaining Old GNR like popularity is their lack of albums released?

If they got a track written by Izzy and played on by Duff as the fitst single...

That is exactly it.

If Axl had released 4-5 albums now post-old band, then he would have shut up a large portion of the critics.

A lot of people were not only mad that he kept the GnR name going without the actual members who made it famous.....but also because he hasn't done hardly anything to keep the name alive, other than living off the work of past members. Proving that he didn't keep the name GnR because of how much it meant to him, but only kept it for the name value in terms of booking shows (IE: to make money).

But if Axl had released several albums and was adding to the GnR legacy with the current band, then a lot of the griping and complaining would dissapear.

You are right and it does seem the holdup is Axl. I mean, he hired a bunch of studio musicians, they are very adept at turning out recordings...

Theres some kind of problem with label. Maybe its more profitable for them for the band to keep touring. If tickey sales drop then maybe time for CD II.

Lack of music yes. But I doubt they would still be as popular as they were in their hay day.

New music would be awesome. I'd have nothing to complain about.

Has there ever been a band that has been more popular 30 years after their heyday than they were during their heyday?

Kind of a naive and ridiculous expectation for any fan to expect.
