The Holographic Universe Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Many forum meme era believe that Axl is receiving 50% and the other two 25%. Is that the consensus on this board? I just can't see any agreement other than the big 3 splitting it equally. I can't imagine Slash would be involved at a reduced rate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Jay Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 (edited) 50% 30% 20% That is why Izzy wanted to split equally is nonsense, probably needed more money as a guest. Shows were sold out without him anyway. Edited September 8, 2016 by Silent Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IncitingChaos Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I believe it was all split equally....each getting 1 million per show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reclamation Project Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 This was the report the media ran with... "Meanwhile, we hear the infamously warring members of Guns N’ Roses won’t have money to fight over during their reunion tour. Sources tell us that instead of having salaries, the core band members will be splitting tour profits." http://pagesix.com/2016/04/05/david-arquette-couldnt-get-in-to-vip-guns-n-roses-show/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italian girl Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I really believe the big 3 split equally!! Axl finally finally on the same level as slash and duff. The UYI era is over.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Jay Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 The big 3 should have split the loot equally with Dizzy Reed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reclamation Project Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I think the real question is what percentage Melissa Reese's MacBook Pro is getting... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stella Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I'm guessing it's 33% for each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoop Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 It would be impossible for Axl to do this without Slash, so I really don't think he has the leverage to demand twice as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. There's no way Slash would accept half, especially when he has the most leverage in this whole thing. Him being back is the main reason they were playing to 60,000 some nights instead of 10,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swedish Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I would belive Slash, Axl and Duff each get 25% and then the rest of the band shares the other 25% (Including Steven, I would guess he is paid about as much as Ferrer is per show he's playing).

Agree with both of you. Axl getting twice as much as Slash, even though Slash had a huge part in the success of GNR again, is like a slap in the face. If the numbers are true, then Slash really lowered him down to much less than he is worth .... i guess less money is better than no money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megaguns1982 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Id say it's something closer to 30% each and the remaining 10% divided between the remaining members. guns n roses is a business as well as a band. Probably mostly a business sadly. look at Metallica, they rarely release new music these days but constantly make money in other ways using their brand. the big 3 are businessmen first and foremost these days and the percentages would have to be pretty even.

DieselDaisy Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 It is all just about business and cash and not music at the end of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It think something along the lines of this. Maybe Axl 30, Duff/Slash 20. I can see Axl getting a BIT more, since he kept the brand alive, and is the 'owner' of some of the ChiDem work they are playing. But I dont see why Slash (or Duff) would accept anything more then 10% difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
