I would guess, he made so much money with this neverending tour, that he could easily afford another divorce! 😂 Or... maybe THATS the reason why they didn't stop touring yet...😉 Edited April 14, 2020 by ZODIAC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlSlashthebest Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 O in your head you think that the people who are the bad we love think only about money? They are not artist but just showman. If you are in the most famous band in hte world I guess you want at least do one more album. I don't said they will surey making or doing nothing but I sure they try with all the big ego of this 3 men Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popcorn crew Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 You have to be on the same page if you want to make new genuine GnR album and I do not think they are. You can make some fake easy to sell shit but on great r'n'r album you have to capture real life emotions and put it in the words and music. And right now Axl can't write or sing, Slash is taking GnR as just one of projects and not his band, Duff is all about Tenderness and using GnR name for self, wife, daughter promotion. So yes they are nostalgia act and we have to find another bands new music or SMKC new album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will also be pressure on them to operate in that way as a band in a studio = no money for anyone, a band touring = lots of people making money.

The Black Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Guns N' Roses are a band and they are musicians. Guns N' Roses are however no longer artists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DurhamGirl Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 (edited) I am probably being naive here, but do you think they know that fans are disgruntled at no new music? Are none of them proud to be part of Guns n Roses anymore? For example I was proud when I received my degree and still feel the same now but Axl, Duff and Slash no longer feel like this? Do you think they feel any kind of shame at doing the same thing over and over again with no new contributions? Trying to get my head around this.

They’re not a band in the traditional sense. They’re a nostalgia act. rhianna has just said that it's not the moment to talk about new music because there are more important things to do and to think about. and I definitely agree 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, it certainly feels like they're just in it for the money and the whole thing is way too fucked up to be great again at this point. It's depressing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I disagree: this is the perfect time for new music. It's the perfect time to actually entertain people. It also helps if your music doesn't rely on clubs, gym and parties to be enjoyed, of course. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimpy Hewitt Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 My only hope at this point is that this band keeps endlessly touring to build up wealth to be able to buy UMG out of their record contract and to be able to take possession of the masters to do what they please with it. Kind of like how Metallica did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they must be aware of it, certainly the majority of the band anyway. They'd have to be living under a rock not to be. Who knows how they're feeling though? Most of the interviews they do seem like they're very held-back and reserved. I'd be very surprised if there wasn't snowballing frustration among some members though. But they're making money and looking out at crowds applauding them night after night.....so they might feel absolutely content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamillos Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 It's been discussed here. There's no way some old contract would still hold them back regarding anything. Guys just made half a billion - if they wanted to buy themselves out of anything, they could have done that already. Or break some ancient agreement, terminate it and pay a fine of a couple of millions maybe. Still, none of this could be a problem with the NITL loot. I just don't think they'll release an album during this lockdown. I'd say they prefer the old way, like meets and greets, shops, happenings, physical cd racks, advertisement on billboards etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangoSkank Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 The lockdown will be a reason to delay recording and releasing anything. There will be legitimate reasons for it and it will also be an excuse to delay and be disorganized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right because GN'R can't use the same extremely high bandwidth and remote recording abilities available to every other artist on the planet.

SAU3R Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 (edited) Why can't they just do it the normal way? Record an album within 1 year, tour it for 2-3 years, take 1-2 years off, repeat Edited April 14, 2020 by SAU3R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rumandraisin Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 The virus can't delay something that doesn't exist. Once again as fans we've got to the point, based on a few comments, where we're trying to come up With reasons it's being delayed. What IT is I dont know.
