Adler's such a wild card you don't know what you'll get with him or what stress/problems he may add to a situation that so far seems to be running surprisingly smoothly. I just don't see 60 year old men who seem to have their lives and careers in order wanting to risk rocking the boat for little, if any, return. Quote

History2010 Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 The fact that people still fall for Niven's garbage is really sad. People should have stopped listening to him so long ago, same with Goldstein. Both are pathological liars. 1 Quote
nycgunner Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Not sure whether this is true - frankly would be sort of disappointed as I am desperate for new music. Something certainly seems to be happening. Gnr’s Instagram is relatively active recently and I just got an email about new merchandise that is about to be posted to the GnR site. 1 Quote

This would be the same Slash and Duff that Adler essentially said had had enough of him, no? Slash and Duff aren't stupid and they're not stuck in whatever 1980's time warp they would have to be in to think Adler is a must have. Quote
Powderfinger Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 I’m sure a deal could be worked out on the proceeds of a new album and tour by Izzy & the others. He writes a few tunes, loot is split equally for the album, tour and merch sales. Richard likely remains if Izzy comes back.... Quote
kiwiguns Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 (edited) The ship has sailed in terms of a AFD reunion. If it could of been worked out, it would have been in place for the NITL tour as that's when the value would have been at its highest to the brand and all individuals involved. The NITL tour provided facts that clearly suggest, the current line-up sells tickets and can sell out venues around the world. Tour promotors see value in the current state of affairs and so do the causal fans paying to see the band live that makes up 60% of the audience. Maybe like an estranged marriage, friendship or family relationship all involved have realised things are to complex and complicated, and lets leave it be, and have moved on as adults do in life. Their are a couple of ex band managers that were relevant and privy to the bands past endeavours. Comments made during that time were relevant to the band and the stories told since than are informative about that period of the band and its past. Like most fans i have read books and listened to interviews with Niven and Goldstein on there involvement in the band in the past. Unfortunately they are out of the loop interms of the current happenings within the GNR camp. I have read or listened to interviews Niven has provided and he has yet to acknowledge that he has had no involvement in the bands activities for a number of years and he is out of the loop interms of knowledge. He always seems to act as if he knows or is privy to current GNR affairs. We all know that's not the case. Edited April 20, 2019 by kiwiguns 1 Quote

Ok you may have a point but i would even like matt sourm sharing the duties and handling the bulk of the show's and adler doing way more than 3 song's a show though... and slash and duff know really what the old school fans wanna see happen and so does axl ...this group likes to keep us guessing we all know lol..duff said it ,axl said it, slash said it that they love the mystery about the band and keeping the fans guessing ...

double talkin jive mfkr Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 axl's cliché conflicts with his drummers matt/steven is so far out dated and loser to have sustained itself putting the product on the back end rather than just perservering as a whole with the most competent members that gel the best on the stage axl finally realized his error and these 2 along with izzy back in the fold asap Quote

The return would be worldwide adoration and, believe me, Axl wants and needs it. You keep conveniently forgetting that this is ROCK N’ ROLL. Get on with it. Quote
EvanG Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 I could have seen Izzy doing a couple of shows, like the original plan was, but there's no way he's going to tour for two years. It's clear that he doesn't like touring or wants to be committed to a big machine like GnR. 1 Quote

Tyler Drama Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 To those of you who want Steven back, would you want him to completely replace Frank and play the entire set? If so, this is what your YBCM intro will sound like: Quote

soon Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 (edited) I wonder if Izzy's preferred guitar tone has been a sticking point at all? On AFD and Lies he has a beefy enough hard rock guitar tone. By UYI a less saturated telecaster tone was his thing on some tracks, and certainly his live tone wasn't so beefy on UYI tour. If that is still the tone he prefers today, Im not sure how it fits into the stadium production thing Guns is doing? It would sound too thin, maybe? Unless they had Mel double him for the entire show which would completely undo the magic, imo. Or the just go all 91-92 and crank up Slash enough for two guitars. Again, then what is the point?
