ManetsBR Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I know what bothers a lot of people - including me at a certain level - is that when Axl gathered a new band on the late 90s, he decided to still use the Guns N' Roses name, despite being a completely different band. In you opinion, what would have been a better name for Axl's new band?I remember a couple of years ago Steven Adler said it should have been called W.A.R.I like Rose N' The Gunners or Rose N' The Guns. New Guns isn't band. What are your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jekylhyde Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 He should've done what Ozzy did after Sabbath, tour under his own name. The name "Axl Rose" could be as huge as "Guns N' Roses" if he had started really working on it in 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeez Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 (edited) it should have been called W.A.R.Not a bad idea, actually.But it wouldn't make any difference to the music which in the end is what matters to me. Edited May 6, 2013 by Jeez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManetsBR Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 Perhaps today, but maybe not on 1999. Anyway, I don't think W.A.R. is a good name, it's kind of lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManetsBR Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 maybe in 1993. Axl Rose was a dead brandname by 1999.No. His years of silence only helped to build the hype on his name. The Axl Rose name was still huge on 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 (edited) Knowing now what Axl's plans were for the band, he had to keep the name Guns n Roses. It has allowed him to sell a lot more tickets to shows, especially overseas. So financially speaking it was the smart thing for Axl to do.
