batman007 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) I for one, don't care about a reunion. But if this was the only way the old lineup would ever perform. Would you guys like or hate the idea of the current lineup and the AFD lineup to to do a world tour together? This is how it would work. The AFD lineup plays all AFD and UYI songs. And the current plays CD, and new songs. On some songs you would get the current lineup to play the old stuff. I for one wouldn't mind! I am a GNR fan of all eras. Even if Axl still hated Slash and didn't interact with him at all through the concert, that would be fine with me. Would never happen, just for discussion.

wfuckinga Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I'd rather see a 2001-2002 lineup do a tour with the current band tbh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rev Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 would be cool but for me it seems like Axl is only original member with fire anymore. The others dont move a whole lot but id like to see old lineup to just see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

classicguns4life Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I'm not against it, but if Slash, Duff, Izzy, Steven and Matt are on tour with Guns N Roses, they better be playing the whole fucking show and be in the spotlight the entire time. It may be unfair, and again I like people like Bumble and Fortus and everything, but its been way too long since the old guys played GNR with Axl. If they weren't up there the entire time or being the centerpieces of every song, it just wouldn't be worth it this late in the game. Better than nothing, but it would be a huge disappointment.

J Dog Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Nah. New band or old band. One of the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUnderScott Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Axl's not running around like he used to, he mainly walks around and dances etc... which is fine. He looks great on stage, still is the most charismatic frontman in the world, and sounds good too.I'd love to see any opportunity for all the guys to play together, from any era. The new GnR boys know they are in company of legends when there has been AFD alumni like Izzy on the stage with them, you can see the new guys respect them immensely for what they have done.

wasted Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I wouldn't mind it, call it The Guns N Roses Rock N Roll Circus Tour.Jungle, Easy, Brownstone, SCOM, RQ - Adler, Duff, Izzy, Slash, Axl.Civil War, You Could Be Mine, Heaven's Door, Live N Let Die - Dizzy, Matt, Duff, Izzy, Slash, Axl.Izzy could do a set of 14 Years, Think About You, Used to Love, Patience - the band could be Frank, Stinson, Fortus, Izzy, Dizzy, Axl for this part of the show.Then Ron, Dj & Pitman could come on for Don't Cry, Nov Rain, Estranged, Chinese Democracy, Better, Street Of Dreams, If The World, Madagascar, This I Love. Everyone comes back out for Nightrain, Whole Lotta Rosie, Move to the City, Paradise City. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetness Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 ...implying Axl would be able to handle two sets a night in his condition.Either the old band reforms, and it sucks, or Axl's band keeps doing what it's been doing, and it sucks.OR Axl takes performing seriously, does what any other professional multi-platinum recording artist does and gets his ass in shape for a tour with a band, any band, and everybody wins.

Mao5 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) there is no "old" and "new" line-up, such things don't exist, it's pure fantasy.there's only guns n'roses (1985-1996) and axl's solo bandi don't see why they would tour together, it would be completely absurd Edited September 22, 2013 by Mao5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The magic was back, the original band was going back out on the road, it was gonna be amazing. They take the stage, Slash steps up to the mic and just yells "C'mon Mickey!"

iftheworld Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 By old lineup you mean BH, Paul, Robin, and Brain? Yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhazUp Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Honestly if I am getting to see Axl up there with Slash, Izzy, Duff, etc. that would completely dissolve any interest I would really have in seeing the current lineupI would be thinking "they could have just cut the current lineup and extended the set of the AFD band".Of course this is implying that if this concert were to happen Axl doesn't Mickey it all up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trqster Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) Truth is that for like 90% of Gn'R fans out there the only member really needed to have a reunion going on is Slash,,, No one else really matters in the public eye perspective. I'm pretty sure Slash would bring out the best of Axl on stage and their legendary chemistry would still be there. But since it ain't gonna happen anyways....

t-p-d-a Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 GN'R 1985 - 2007 is historyThe Current Band has great potential to create new music. I prefer new music with the current band.I don't want a Reunion, because Mickey Mouse would destroy the Magic of Classic GN'R (85 - 90). I can't imagine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megaguns1982 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 1 year world tour from the UYI era band, just hit the BIG venues. At this point i think it would need a very persuasive ad campaign as most casual fans think its just Axl and hired hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 It would be so anti-climatic. The old band wrap up their set with Paradise City - there is rock god Slash, Duff, songwriting genius Izzy - and out steps Ashba to play Democracy! In all honestly, I would probably leave at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magisme Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 As long as the classic lineup played first, I'd be fine with it, cuz I'd just leave at the end of that set.Seriously, though, I wouldn't want any kind of reunion unless Axl got his shit together. Every time I imagine the classic lineup, I still think of Axl as the beast he used to be. I don't need to see him butchering GNR songs with the real band, ruining my image of GNR further.

Bono Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Honestly.... absolutely NOT. I don't give a flying fuck about the old and new combining. I know some would love it but to me... in MY opinion I think it'd be one of the dumbest most ridiculous things I have ever seen, not only in music but in life.
