Len Cnut Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 I don't trust Slashes sobriety, making up with a guy that wrote a song caning 'n!ggers' and was taking little sideways cancer shots at him while his Mum was dying but there you go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spunko12345 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Sorum is as close as it would get imo. Clearly not just Axl, but Duff and Slash all have doubts about him. Where there's smoke.......There's Stevie and his crack pipe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudolf1978 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 He only needs to be quiet! .Im sure that he is watching all camps move in one direction and he is out of the negotiations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicoRourke Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) Christ, his statements are being picked up by multiple outlets already. The "I'll kill them all" parts of course.He probably wanted to joke but it's going to bite him in the ass, again.

bran Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Here was what stands out to me with his clearly damaged outlook "I would probably feel like I would wanna kill myself, but I wouldn't. I would probably just kill them. [Laughs] 'Cause if I'm not doing it, they're not doing it. If I'm going down, they're going down."Sounds like something a sane sober person would say 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eye2eye Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Just call Brian he has more swagger, feel and technique then Adler and Sorum combined. Axl, Duff and Slash is all that matters (and I love Izzy but I doubt he will commit full time - some guest spots for sure) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maynard Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Brain is great but he was not the right fit for Axl's band. If Axl's band focused on playing their own songs maybe... but covering real GNR songs? Meh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passenger57 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 I love that Adler admitted he would not be able to keep it a secret. My guess is they will give him a shot and have him play on some Appetite tunes with Sorum doing extra percussion like on the HAF performance. I suspect Sorum would do most of the heavy lifting for the tour. Basically just to see all those original guys get on stage to perform together one more time is good enough for me.

Kula2006 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Steven will never be part of a full reunion world tour - I hope the disapointment about that doesn't bring him back to Mr Brownstone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalsh327 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 I think Duff's disappointment is also about Adler putting a band together and watching him unravel the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eye2eye Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) Brian is just flat out amazing even comparing him to any other GN'R drummer is insulting to his skills. I doubt Axl will sign to make it AFD lineup reunion- he will be one against whole band- Adler is just unreliable- Izzy isn't a safe bet either So I guess it will be something like Axl, Slash, Duff + Frank/Brian + Fortus with some Izzy guest performances. If it happens of course.How could anybody have faith in Adler he is just crazy and I get an impression that he is just 8year old child in old body. I think if there is a deal for reunion they will have to eliminate guys like Izzy or Adler as they can blow out whole thing.

Ant Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) Adler is like Dave Mustaine.He's just always going to be hurting, showing signs of rejection and going back and forth between being vulnerable and arrogant. It'd be cool if Duff got him to do that whole routine he did for Scott Weiland. Edited September 29, 2015 by Ant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 He was great in Guns, his big smile etc....but drugs ruined his whole deal. Still like him and wish him the best, but no way he could survive a tour sober. Maybe a guest appearance at a gig or 2, that's it. Wouldn't be healthy for him.And yeah- I doubt it's been 21 months sober. *I have no idea,. Don't know the dude, but just based on his track record.Sadly I think leaving him out would not be healthy for him either. Can you imagine what would happen to Adler if the others reunited without him? Adler has literally been dreaming of a reunion since he was sacked!

Tom2112 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Yeah well Axl would rather go with Matt than Steven.Steven is a nice guy, I love him as a drummer, but he really needs to keep quiet in many cases, I can understand where he is coming from, he see's a friend in Slash and when Slash ignores him for whatever reasons, then Steven feels bad. My suggestion to Steven would be that if you are actually sober and not going crazy, then give a call to duff and try to meet him, arrange for a couple of shows and show you are sober and all well. I guess after reading this, Slash and Duff will keep more distance with Steven. and the people who are saying Axl din't come to HOF cause of Steven, well I don't think so, he wouldn't have come anyways. per haps but after adler caled the current lineup at the time scabs, until then axl was open minded to itNo, it was negotiations coming to a standstill with the rock hall about some inclusion of the current band that stopped Axl from going along to it. I'm sure he wasn't overly impressed by the scabs comment, but it was nothing new so I doubt he took too much notice or offence by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you imagine what would happen to Adler if the others reunited without him? Adler has literally been dreaming of a reunion since he was sacked!There's truth to that, but if you're gonna put that band back together do you really want a member who's that unstable joining you? I think they would have enough trouble with the rest of the guys (mainly Axl). I don't think holding a reunion hostage to Stevens sobriety / sanity is fair though! IF Steven proves himself trust worthy and in the event of a reunion, he would most likely end up on stage with them at some point or another, maybe a once off or a full run... but he would need to exercise some restraint before that can happen - no shooting his mouth off, and no drugs or alcohol.

ZoSoRose Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) Awwwww poor Steven...Seriously? Own up to yourself. No way he could jandle a reunion tour.I still like Steven and was happy for him at the HOF, but his comments around then were terrible. And after all hes been through, he shouldn't act like 21 months is an accomplishment. Well, maybe he should, but why should others after all his relapses?Stoll wish him the best Edited September 30, 2015 by ZoSoRose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
