Popular Post jacdaniel Posted March 21, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2018 If this happens and there is no Guns music, Axl will truly have had the most bizarre career ever... Kept Guns going for years when it was just him left. Released 1 average album in all those years. Gets back with Slash and Duff. Now there is huge interest in Guns again for the first time in 20 years. Axl is more interested in joining a band that has only 1 original member. Any ACDC album is going to be hard rock, which is exactly what Axl wouldn't do with Guns. That's very baffling to me. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not interesting in a copy/paste tour in Europe or elsewhere. I wish they could spend that time making a new album I don't think it works like that. It's not like its one or the other. They was/is a huge demand here, they are going to capitalize on that. I really think that as long as there's demand for NITL in its current form we won't see any new music or revamped setlist or additional (AFD5 or whatever) members. Maybe they'll start thinking about that once their current cash cow 'NITL' runs dry. Then they'll need an AFD30 tour (well, that opportunity has passed), UYI25 or AFD5 lineup, new music, or whatever to get people spending big bucks (or euro's in this case) on GNR again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly 10 years after CD. They are playing new songs starting in June and the album will come out on Nov. 23rd. I think that was the date that TSI? and CD also came out. But I will probably be disappointed lol If they seriously want to continue NITL in 2019 it has to be with a new album. I think it's clear that they will go to Asia and Australia again after this years Euro leg. Of course there's always those who will go and don't care about a new album but the venues will get smaller and smaller every year without something new.

As far as I know it has been fairly silent and if they would continue right after the Euro leg those shows would have been announced (or at least strongly rumoured) by now. That said, I do think they can capitalize more on the reunion in Australia/NZ and Japan, so I wouldn't be surprised if they'd do a second leg there at some point. But for now all points to NITL ending after this Euro leg, and personally I think Axl will do AC/DC, Slash will do SMKC, Duff will maybe tour the Walking Papers record and/or do something with Hollywood Vampires for example. And I hope not, but wouldn't be surprised if we get another 1993 - 1999 scenario with basically no news at all and the band dissolving. Other scenario would be new music, but that has been a pain for the combination of these guys since 1991. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trqster Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 My guess is that in '19 there will be an AXL/DC record out. One year later Gnr's CD II with Slash & Duff's re-recorded parts. There'll be some epic years ahead of us R&R fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously if they call it a day after Europe, a new album makes nonsense. Unless it is a live album/DVD from the tour. If on the other hand they plan more tours, then they need to come up with something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like everyone else I bitch and moan on here and rightly so...but if they come back to NZ I won't have the balls to boycott lol. I'll definitely still go and have a blast. Obviously it could be better though and our expectations are reasonable imo. No, and this has nothing to do with any nationality. I've already saw this show. Both in the U.S. (2016) and Europe (2017). I won't see them again with the same set list anywhere in the world. I can turn a blind eye on the current line up because of Slash and Duff. I didn't go to shows during the Ashba era, not a single one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said anything about Angus's stage presence; obviously it is legendary. I've been going to AC/DC shows since Back In Black and he never fails to deliver an entertaining show. And yes, he is very good at writing catchy, simplistic songs. However, as a guitarist, he can't hold a candle to Slash. Maybe you prefer his style- different strokes. As for speculation on several levels- what part of my post is "speculation"? It's all very well documented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stress Fracture Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 While reading the AC/DC forum I was reminded that Angus is the only band member to appear on the sleeves for the studio albums since the 70s and also appeared on his own on the international High Voltage one. It’s a highly unusual thing but it makes carrying on and marketing anything with him involved as AC/DC easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tucknroll Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I'm thinking this was axls retirement tour. One last cash grab to keep him filthy rich the rest of his life.

Axl only needs to go to the studio and lay vocals down, that would take maybe a week or two. The rest ist Angus' thing, don't think Axl is involved in creating the lyrics/songs. What will happen? I guess Angus will go on tour with GNR. Yep, no Axl/DC tour. Been saying that for a long time. Angus needs a band, Axl has a band. And since Angus is getting older he wouldn't have to play for 2 or 3 hours straight. But of course I could be wrong. If we get a new AC/DC and GNR album this or next year that will be one of the most amazing rock music years EVER. A week or two? LOL Axl takes years to do anything.

There is no incentive for Axl to make new music with Guns. To get his creative kicks? He can do that with AC/DC. To make money? He just generated half a billion dollars by playing decades old music on tour. For the fans? LOL. Generally speaking I like AC/DC, they are entertaining live band, but their music is very formulaic. Do you think Angus would allow Axl do something different to get those creative kicks? Edited March 22, 2018 by Fourteenbeers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shotsfired cro Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 ...on the sidenote, away from AC/DC topic... I find it entertaining how after 30 years of GNR breaking on the scene there are still ppl who speculate 'it wouldn't make sense'...and try to find sense in anything about GNR. Nothing ever made sense in that bend. Ax haed ticks totally different than most ppl. He is a fucking nut case with a strong auto destructive gene.

Your statement: "Don't you think that is EXACTLY what Slash & Duff would like to do? That's all they have EVER wanted to do!

YourMother'sDruthers Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Just imagine if Axl puts out an album with AC/DC though... Axl could catapult AC/DC into a whole other stratosphere that they could only imagine when they were just an Australian garage band chanting "oui! oui! oui!" to a handful of confused teens in Phil Rudd's basement.

TheGeneral Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 I honestly hope Axl will have more stage presence when he's with AC/DC again. Angus is entertaining, but to me Axl is more entertaining. And since he's the lead singer he shouldn't be dancing around somewhere in the back where nobody can see him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty123 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 The thing that strikes me as bizarre with this Axl/DC stuff is that I was always under the impression that the big musical difference between Axl and Slash was that Axl DID NOT want to record AC/DC style rock music. it always seemed like Slash was the one who wanted to do simple, classic rock music and Axl obviously went with the CD-style stuff. So now, if true, Axl is leaving his own band to the side to record the type of music that he did not want to do and that was part of the reason for his own band’s breakup???? It doesn’t make sense to me... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He views doing an appetite-style record as a step back after both the Illusions and Chinese in which each one were more progressive than the last. Ac/Dc has never really evolved musically and therefore a typical rock album fits in there in the eyes of Axl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
