jekylhyde Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 It could mean goodbye Ashba. That would be sad, cause I would like to hear new Guns-songs written by Axl and Ashba. But then again, I'm a fan of Sixx AM too, so it would be great to see them more stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classicguns4life Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Thats fine. Guns isn't doing anything so its not like Ashba won't have plenty of time. No, unfortunately I think Ashba is in GNR for as long as we have New Guns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoking Baby Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Sixx AM to open for GNR so people can have a blast of 80's cock rock with lots of botox and #swag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 It also depends what James Michael's schedule is like as a producer, I don't think Nikki's going to be pushing for Sixx:AM to be a year round thing, and might put more time into Sixx Sense and photography (probably start doing art galleries and coffeetable books). He could also resurrect the Brides of Destruction. I don't know if he answered that on Reddit or in recent interviews regarding future plans.

Val22 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Yeah, I read that. I thought that DJ was already working on the new Sixx AM cd? He had something on his twitter awhile back about it. He said he and the singer Michael wrote some songs and had begun recording them. Maybe I misunderstood.Well, as long as GNR and Sixx AM don't tour or do anything at the same time, I'm sure DJ can do both.When I saw the first Cruefest, Nikki was playing with Sixx AM and the Crue. Maybe Sixx AM and GNR will tour together one day! NOT! That would be cool though.Anyway, the Crue will be touring for over 3 years and are supposed to record a new last album, so I think DJ is okay with whatever GNR is doing for the near future.

Nick85 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Good, I hope DJ leaves and never comes back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Facekicker Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Hopefully, though I reckon DJ will cling on like a limpet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liers Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Would be nice. Dj isn't a bad guitarist, I just don't like the guy. If he left, it would be nice having Robin or Bucket return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I suspect DJ would go with whichever band is paying him the most money. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowmass Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I suspect DJ would go with whichever band is paying him the most money. Id imagine "Guns n Roses" (wink wink) makes more than Sixx AM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I suspect DJ would go with whichever band is paying him the most money.Id imagine "Guns n Roses" (wink wink) makes more than Sixx AM.You would think a guitar player like him, who is really addicted to trying to turn himself into an "iconic" type guy, would go with the band that allowed him to express himself as an artist. The band that allowed him to write and record music, and then allowed him to perform live music he helped create.That must be a real hard thing for DJ to come to grips with. GnR gives him the publicity and "fame" aspect of being in a legendary rock band. But all he does is plays guitar parts that OTHER people wrote and made famous. And just being associated with GnR and Axl helps DJ become "famous" just by association.But with Sixx AM, he is actually involved with writing the music.Would you rather become famous and popular because of music you wrote, or because you are playing in a band that has already achieved that success? As an artist, which route would you go?So I retract my initial statement. I think fame and popularity is more important to DJ than how much money he makes.

wasted Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Sixx am is played out. Dj probably will hold on to get a GNR writing credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I don't see DJ going anywhere. He'll find a way to make it work even if the scheduling gets disasterous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2112 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Personally I can't stand Dj as a player, but! I realise that Axl has a good friendship with him, and it seems as though he considers him a good writing partner... If Dj was to leave I think Axl would be very bummed out. A replacement musician would be easy to find (Dj is not a great player by any stretch), but getting the right personality might be that bit trickier.

BangoSkank Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I don't know why he'd need a new one if DJ left - Ron is pretty underused as is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
