fastfingers666 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Throughout Guns' history, they've always had a few instances where people have filled in for members that are injured, sick, etc. From Izzy coming back after Gilby's motorcycle accident, to Duff filling in while Tommy Stinson did some Replacements shows (which probably helped the reunion), most of these substitutes have been fairly positive for a lot of fans. My question is, who do you think/hope would come in to replace any member of the band if the unfortunate need would arise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, but this is not intended to be factual or rumors. Just an idea of what fans would want to see if something happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BreakDown2014 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I'd love to see Tommy with GN'R at least one more time. Same with Robin and Brain. Maybe bring Robin on stage a few times during the tour and play Better with the new lineup... that'd be amazing Anyway, Axl definitely has a huge list of replacements in case one of the guys gets sick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastfingers666 Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 Agree with Zig-Zag. In my opinion, he actually contributed to the band's live sound, unlike what I've seen of Pitman (just an opinion, nothing against the guy). I think Gilby should be second in line (After Izzy of course), but if Izzy says no, Gilby would still be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having Better on the setlist for a few shows and bringing Robin on stage would be a great surprise and I'm sure most of the fans would have a great reaction/ appreciate it. That's the good thing about everyone being cool with everyone (except for Buckethead and Axl, Tobias and Slash, and a few more).

Bono Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 The first show hasn't even happened yet and we've got people wondering who we'd like to see replace the originals who have replaced the replacements of replacements. How about we not discuss Menudoing this band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastfingers666 Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 The idea isn't replacements, it's what thoughts are on Axl's mentality. On a reunion tour, would he pull from classic or NuGnr? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Jesus Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 No body really cares about the drummer except the internet cupcakes. Adler was replaced by a drumming machine and no one knew. Izzy has always been come and go. Fortus is great compared to Gilby and a notch below slash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just once would be great already. Axl don't seem to have a grudge with Bucket though - not anymore (the shared Dr Pepper). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 San Francisco is one of the dates so Buckethead & Bootsy Collins could happen, if Brain was there, would turn into a Praxis mini-reunion. Axl, Slash and Duff would probably take a 20 minute break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
