Chainsforalice Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 As long as slash is nowhere near axl i'm happy. Maybe some jams with gilby ? Izzy & Duff have already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITG Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Brainsaber's definitely my favorite poster/foil. Always a joy to read. It's like all his threads were made by Acme. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfierose Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Most of the time I accept a reunion is unlikely but occasionally I am reminded it's not impossible. I watched a Pink Floyd doc the other night and Roger Waters was talking about letting go of his feud to do Live8 with Gilmour. It's not a completely dissimilar situation and they are a few years ahead in age from Axl and Slash so maybe one day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TombRaider Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 While I have given up all hope that there'll ever be a reunion, I must say when I think of GnR I think of the AFD/UYI lineups. The current incarnation of the band means nothing to me, even if I do like Chinese Democracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bono Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Why stop hoping for what you want? If people want a reunion so be it. If they want new music from this band so be it, hope for that. Difference between the two is nobody's dangling the reunion carrott in front of us. The new music carrott has been dangled in front of fans so badly it's stupid. The whole "get on board or fuck off" mantra in the end really was a slap in the face to the fans who have always been on board. One is a hope for something from the past while the other is a hope that the GNR organization stops taking the fans for granted.And really so many of the people who hope for a reunion do so based on the realization that the new band they supported have done fuck and probably won't. It's gotten tot he point fans see more point in hoping for a reunion than hoping for this band to create their own identity. Well done NuGnR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbo Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 (edited) There's really nothing to accept and have faith in imho.I officially gave up hope for a reunion after the rnrhof, but I've highly doubted it for years. Even during that time, I wasn't expecting a performance or anything. There's just no way it will ever happen. Axl has one of the the most unhealthy, deep, venomous, hatreds I've ever seen when it comes to Slash. Add the hanger-ons who keep telling Axl he's completely in the right on top of that (most likely to keep their meal ticket), and that hatred will just never die.But it's too late for everything really. Nu Guns will never be Van Hagar. For whatever reason you want to cite, that ship has sailed. Nobody will ever look at any form of the nu line up as anything more than Axl and a bunch of other guys decently covering GNR songs. At best.I also highly doubt, for several reasons, we'll ever hear new nu music unless it's leaked or gets milked after Axl dies. And even then, I doubt it.I accept the reality just fine at this point. Axl will more than likely do the nostalgic thing until he retires or drops. It's a damn shame for both sides of the coin, but no sense losing sleep over it. Edited November 5, 2013 by Bobbo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreCC Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Hall of Fame was the end of the line for that in my view, but you never know.I don't think Axl should forgive Slash for what he has done, now that i know the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I think when Bucket and Finck left and there was still no reunion, that kind of convinced me. Instead of Izzy we got Dj, instead of Slash we got Ron.But they could do a reunion in their 60s... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a completely dissimilar situation and they are a few years ahead in age from Axl and Slash so maybe one day...Roger was also trying to work out why he kept getting divorced at the time, so his head was in trying to fix his life. I think the wheels were finally in motion when Nick said he and Roger ran into each other at the beach and he'd started the book. All of them gave their input to the book, but that's where you realize the friendship Nick and Roger had, was more personal than the falling out that happened between Roger and Dave. Axl's said he's worked all that stuff out for himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padme Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 The thing is even if the original 5 members are friends again. And they seem willing to give the band another chance. Axl still has issues with himself. I don´t think Slash, Izzy, Duff and Steven or Matt are willing to put up with riots, Axl being late, expensive videos, nerverending recording and over pruduction or the current management team. They may like to be friends with Axl. But making and album and a tour with him it´s another story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just blind Axl fanaticism. You'd have better luck gettinga straight and honest answer by asking Axl when the next album is coming out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
