Here Today... Gone To Hell!

i'm sure alot of you have noticed (since 2002) how the new gnr logo actually says "G&R", and the same with this new logo, and certain festival promoters are listing the band as "guns & roses" (even though i'm sure this could be a mistake, most still list them as "guns n' roses", and that's the name axl owns too), so how do you feel about this? i think it's ok that he wants to make this something different, also in writing, but do you think they will use "G&R" for other purposes than touring, like on the album cover? it's anyone's guess, but feel free to add thoughts on this! :beer:

It's still "GUNS N' ROSES". Anything with "G&R" is just an arty thing for the sake of that type of font... if that makes any sense?!

ha, i was gonna start a similar thread closer to tour time to remind people that when theyre chanting its guns N roses. too many chant guns and roses, and they really shouldnt.

pedantic yes. but... its guns n roses. please respect that as we wait for axl to show up.

i never heard fans on any concert chanting  "guns N roses"  ....... :-X

this thread is dead horse material...  ::)

wow, thanx for the contribution there, santa's little internet police helper...

the 'n' was just a way to rebel back then i think, kinda like the way 'z' was used in the 90'z :peace:

it was always Guns 'and' Roses, one and the same : ok:  ....but it's not :hihi:

ummmmmmmmmmm a typical Conway

It's weird how people always write Guns. There are Guns 'n Roses, Guns N Roses, Guns n? Roses, Guns ?N Roses, Guns 'N' Roses, Guns n* Roses, Guns N^ Roses...(i've even seen Guns &' Roses) How hard is it to write GUNS N' ROSES? damn.

how about you read the topic.
i'm aware of the "problem".

That & sign looks like a sideways cursive N.... Idk...

u forgot AXEL or Gunsn? Roses lmfao  ;D ;D

TRUE

BTW, Happy b-lated b-day Neemo.  Glad to see you aren't incarcerated today.

it sounds like one of them could've been really drunk in the old days and slurred 'guns and roses' so it came out all together 'guns n roses' .... probably slash, i could see that happening, lol? :hihi:

I never noticed that  :o

Guns N'Roses/Guns & Roses it's pretty much a much of a muchness. I'm pretty sure the band have been called by both names since the beginning.

If you look on the official GnR web site the logo clearly shows a 5 point star with G&R + guns n Roses (guns is written with a lower case 'g' and roses written using a capital 'R' - v.odd).

thats because it's Axl Rose not Axl guns.  Actually i don't knnow why, but I didn't like the & in the name.  But they still put the N' below it.

a friend of mine had GNR listed as Guns and Roses in his music files on his computer, I explained to him it is wrong and changed it, Its a real pet hate of mine.

What about the song "Get In the Ring" where he says "and in this corner, waighing in at 850 pounds, Guns and Roses!"

& = and = 'n'

I understand how they all mean the same thing, but everyone's acting like you absolutely have to pronounce it "n" when Axl himself has clearly said "and" at least one time that I can remember, in "Get In the Ring."  It's a silly thing to even discuss, though...  :)

Guns N' Rose.Guns and Roses,means the same thing,the N is just short for the word and  :smoking:

You people are making too big of a deal out of this.

"n", "&", "and" are all the same thing and have all been used offically.  Just look at the live era booklet if you want to see them all.

I've always perfered Guns n' Roses to tell you the truth, but that's just me.

Guns n' Roses
Guns N' Roses
Guns 'n Roses
Guns 'N Roses
Guns 'n' Roses
Guns 'N' Roses
Guns & Roses
Guns and Roses
Guns And Roses

are ALL acceptable.
