What if Axl and Slash take turns with the GNR name year by year?

[magisme]

The name doesn't mean anything to me anymore. It just ensures more ticket and record ( ) sales than would happen under more nominally accurate circumstances. I don't care if they start calling a reunited 'N Sync Guns N' Roses. Unless it's the group of guys who made the name, it's just a name.

...so we can complain about pitchy clean vocals no matter who is singing?

[Manfisman]

What's the point? If they take turns to the GNR name just reunite instead and that's it.

Then we'd have generic rock songs every 2 years.

Cause waiting 14 years for an album is better...

Izzy should start a New nuGNR and tour with Ole, Rob, Gilby and Tracii.

But Ole is dead :c he drowned in 1991

Are you high? why would Axl agree to that Slash has every right to the play the bands songs... he has no rights to the name (he signed it away, and that's that). Axl would never agree to it, also! why would slash using the GnR name be any better than Axl and co using it?

Also, "Slash doesn't need the security of having the gnr name. Axl and beta on the other hand" Axl would still play stadiums if he was going on the power of his own name, slash on the other hand does a million interviews, releases new material and he only plays to at the max 5000 people. Slash would love to have the GnR banner, I'm glad Axl has control of it as he doesn't sell it down the drain or go chasing media attention (obviously I wish he would do more with the band etc.)

Slash plays small shows and larger shows has recently played to large crowds Superbowl, music festivals and last solo show in Melbourne was Hisense Arena and close to sold out (capacity 10,500)

Far better that than fucking This I Love shit every 15 years or so....

[Crash Diet]

It wouldn't be Guns N' Roses without Axl imo

[Val22]

Didn't Axl win the right to the GNR name alone?

I don't think Slash would want to use the GNR name.

I agree Axl Rose is GNR.

[axlrod]

gnr NAME was once the biggest band's NAME in the world until before TSP featuring Slash, Duff, Matt, Gilby

November 23, 1993 1st week

800,000 - DoggyStyle

190,000 - The Spaghetti Incident?

On a year, Axl has the rights to use the name, on the other, Slash. That would be easy to put on a contract.

THE GNR NAME IS NOT SOME WHORE TO BE PASSED AROUND!

"Axl would still play stadiums under his own name."

Ya and instead of being a qtr full they would b an 8th full. Are you kidding dude,

Exactly.

And somebody was actually complaining about Slash releasing a record every two years??? Seriouslly? People are so delusional concerning Axl Rose, that they now complain about bands that release music more than once every 20 years? Wow.

[EvH]

I don't really know if I think this is the funniest, or the stupidest idea to have ever been expressed on this forum. Probably both.

[Modano09]

Does it even matter anymore? GNR without Axl isn't GNR and GNR with Axl doesn't seem to want to do much.
