speedking Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 From: http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermo...ewsitemID=52419Former GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Izzy Stradlin took the stage tonight (May 17) with GNR for the song "Think about You" at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City.GUNS N' ROSES frontman Axl Rose made various references to Stradlin during their May 15 show at the Hammerstein Ballroom.Tonight's concert is the last of four New York City shows to be performed by the current lineup of GUNS N' ROSES. These are the only U.S. appearances scheduled so far for the group, which counts singer W. Axl Rose as its sole original member. BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE was the opening act for all NYC dates.GUNS N' ROSES 2006 touring lineup:Axl Rose - VocalsRobin Finck - GuitarRon Thal - GuitarRichard Fortus - GuitarTommy Stinson - BassDizzy Reed - KeyboardsChris Pittman - KeyboardsBrian "Brain" Mantia - Drums(Thanks: TalkingMetal.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersillyspacemonkey Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 this actually kinda saddens me that a sole member of GNR has been reduced to only a one time guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetRose Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) Who said anything about a reunion?????? But of course,Axl has the right to change his mind.If he wants to change it,then what are you going to do?That's my question for those going gaga over the new album and current line-up.......what would you do if he DID ask the guys to come back and they accepted,although it probably will never happen...............but what if he did and it did happen?Are you guys still gonna lick his ass?or are you gonna drop him like a hot potatoe?????

KBear Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) I see this as the first step to any sort of reunion...whenever that may come to fruition. In fact, this was a reunion of sorts, however short and slight it may have been. Axl and Izzy performing together again on the same stage...first time in 15 years...amazing!!!What really sucks though, is that I would've gone to this show if I could have got the day off work. But I couldn't, and then when the 12th and 14th shows were announced, I got the 14th as it was on a weekend. I knew the last show was gonna be the best, if only because the band had some time to work out any bugs. Oh well, the 14th was still an amazing show. To see this though, would have been that much better. Edited May 18, 2006 by KBear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SylvesterStallone Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Wow....I wish I could have been there....first time those two have been together in over 15 years....

F*ck Fear Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 There is no filler on Appetite. But I think it would have been better to have done a different song tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the better songs on AFDDust N Bones on the other hand is clearly a fillerThey both rock. DN'B IMO though, is the better song. None of Izzy's songs were filler. Double Talkin' Jive, Pretty Tied Up, DN'B, 14 Years, You Ain't The First...all quality songs. Of course, this is all subjective, not everyone will like these tunes.I'm not sure I'd call too many songs on any Guns album (even UYI) as filler. It seems that different fans have different favourites. I can't really stand songs like Locomotive, RNDTH, and Garden of Eden; but others love these songs. I can recognize that they are good efforts, I just am not into the way those songs sound and flow. I don't think the band said, "let's just throw some garbage on their to fill up each disc." They were going for something with these songs. They weren't intended to be merely filler songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lick who's ass???I'm talking about the ones on here that seem to lick Axl's ass no matter who(non-orginal guys) he has in the band or what he does with the band,and diss the originals or anyone who likes or stands up for the orginal guys on here..Are they gonna do the same(continue to lick his ass),if and when Axl were to decide to ask the originals back?And I am by no means saying that it would happen.Just an honest question.Would they still be licking his ass,if the originals were to ever get back together?And I am not posting this to start a war or be bashed about.People can post an answer without having to get all damn nasty about it.
