I think, GN'R is not a normal band, like others.
People, who wanna have "the old times" back, are more ignorant, than fans of the "new band".
Axl is in a good mode with current GN'R, he wouldn't be in a good mode with the old.
So lets enjoy the HOF ceremony, and than Axl continues with his version of GN'R (the real GN'R)!
I'm definitely someone who wants the original band back together and would give my left arm to see the original 5 play together before I die. That being said, I love CD and that's basically all I've listened to over the last year. I also saw them play in December and thought they put on a hell of a show. axl is undoubtedly the greatest singer/songwriter to ever live, i just long for the original 5.
