ChineseIRS Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I can see there being some twist to the reunion, like Axls retiring or something after its done. But to deny that its happening at this point is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to deny that its happening at this point is ridiculous.Fine with me. I don't really care to be honest. I wouldn't think Axl could keep up being in shape anyway. But I really just want to see Axl and Slash together on stage. Whatever happens after that, I truly couldn't care less. Obviously I want the band to continue and have a whole new rebirth, but if it doesn't at least I saw it once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvH Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Jesus shut the fuck up Mitch Lafon.Also, does anyone else find it hysterical that Kushner, VR member that has nothing to do with GNR, currently has more in his favor to be part of the reunion than Matt, VR member that yknow actually played with classic GNR on their albums and tour? Who would have thought Matt Sorum would be the only surviving VR member NOT in a Guns reunion.Yup. I really don't get why Dave might be involved. Bring Gilby FFS.

Billsfan Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) People still wanna argue that Eddie Trunk is worse? I mean I'd vote no trunk isn't worse. Trunk really hasn't speculated on who would be in or out of the band. I don't completely distrust Mitch I just think he's completely speculating. I think he's trying to analyze and read between the lines but I think he's reading a little too much.I'm gonna vote Izzy Adler and sorum would all be involved still.

bangit Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I can see there being some twist to the reunion, like Axls retiring or something after its done. But to deny that its happening at this point is ridiculous.This is my view also. They have probably seen the massive global success of the final motley tour and thought that the time is now.... retirement afterwards. This maximizes ticket sales worldwide and the final pay check! This would be the right decision for me. I think we are seeing the start of a final farewell type reunion tour as a one off 2 year project. Just my opinion / gut instinct on it.

No better way than to do that with Slash one last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuzeville Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Axl going on Kimmel is as much a confirmation is anything. He wouldn't be bothered to go on for anything less.I can't remember what the occasion was when he went the 1st time around though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smoking guns Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I've been saying this all along, and I still hold to it: I don't think this is a reunion of Axl and slash. I think this is a new business partnership between them, which will result in lots of new cash grab licensing deals, but nothing in terms of live performance.Niceguy, what drugs do you take for you delusion?

I'm just screwing with him. But clearly it wasn't selling what they'd hoped or Axl never would have gone on to promote it. It said something at least. He has to go on TV to sell a GNR tour in the US. Did it with Vegas, did it with That Metal Show in 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangit Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I get your point. Infact i think i was mistaken - $15m was the total grossing sales for the last tour so it would only have been about $3m for vegas i expect. If this is to be done properly Axl needs to get off his ass and do some interviews etc. At least Slash - 'the media whore' - will be around to do the bulk of it! Good times ahead - hopefully!

Now he is called a media whore, only thing that changed is us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsfanoldie Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Slash should get paid truckloads of money if he has to field all the questions about why they are back together. That will get exhausting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a reunion between Axl and slash, but not a guns n roses reunion. But calling the whole thing a reunion is a lot easier than "renewed partnership between Axl Rose's Guns N Roses and Slash/Duff Mckagan who will be bringing in Dave Kushner while Rose will be retaining Fortus, Ferrer, and Pittman."
