The only solution to save Guns n' Roses

Bucket did the solo at the end of November Rain as well.

Normally, I'd say "keep dreaming," but now I think, "stop dreaming," because I'm sick of you posting these threads.

A reunion is never going to fucking happen.

There is no way in hell that Slash would leave Velvet Revolver months before his album release and a possible second rise to fame to play guitar for an widely-ridiculed egomaniac. (and that's being generous)

[providman]

Does bono have a contract for "the edge" to be in U2?

We're talking about something completely different. U2 has had the SAME line-up for 25 fuckin years and counting...Sure Edge and Bono had some arguments but it's a different world...Axl has been trying to rebuild a new band for more than 7 years now (when the last ex-Gunners left)...it's not an easy task and I think we all witnessed that over the past few years...

That's just a bunch of rationalizing, still make excuses for Axl no-matter-what bullshit. It's not rocket science to put together a group, record an album, & tour, only in the land of Axl is it some sort of herculean task.

[RyanMFGs]

I guarantee if Axl called Slash on the phone, Slash would shit his pants as it was just for the fact that Axl called... haha I bet a reunion would be a lot more possible than you think if only ONE MAN would change... Even with Velvet Revolver going on that would stop Slash, Izzy, Duff, and Steve from going to Rio would it? Weiland would be in lock down rehab at that point still and it would probably give the hugest amount of publicity to the Velvet Revolver guys they could ever imagine.... wow it'd be great.


But yeah, it's never gonna happen I realize that.

[Pandora]

It's now or never to reunite or Axl's done.

this is a run against time...AXL TAKE YOUR PHONE!

Rocktar has struck again  

Dude, didn't you read the latest Slash interview?  He said that even if Axl called him, said he was a better person and asked him to come back, he would refuse. Is that so fuckin' hard for you to understand?  

[jarmo]

AXL TAKE YOUR PHONE!

... and call rocktar81 to tell him Slash isn't joining the band anytime "soon".

ok, ok...maybe Fink and Fortus are going to have a bigger part in Guns n' Roses.
To a certain extent, it's cool because Fortus will have a bigger part and you all know how I think Fortus is a great guitar player. However, Buckethead kicked ass on some guitar solos like nightrain or paradise city (the end).
let's see what will happen in Lisbon.

[HoldenCaulfield]

Like I said, I love Bucket, love him to death, but I think a lot of people overstate what he has done with GNR.

You really have no idea what you are talking about. The importance of BH wasnt just in how many solos he played, but the reputations he brought in to the band.... Without him, GNR is like Ratt..tthey are gonna get laughed at even more than before....

I'm actually quite informed, thanks. It's obvious, besides what we've heard live, no one knows exactly what each member might potentially bring to the band. Like I've said, no one's a bigger Bucket fan than I am, but as far as being in GNR, thus far, his non-replaceable persona hasn't really shown...

[Fox In A Top Hat]

i for one think that this band is dead and Axl shud fuck the idea of Guns N' Roses off, its over. If anythin he shud release a solo album.

Slash, Duff and Izzy will never play again with Axl, and theres no way Slash Duff and matt wud leave VR at this point.

and i agree with the person who sed that CD isnt gonna happen anytime soon cos Bucket wudnt have left.

Does anyone here actually think this "Guns N' Roses" is gonna happen, personally i dont.

Its over, im just looking forward to Contraband.

[anarchy]

The only solution to save Guns n' Roses is... TO REFORM THE BAND BEFORE CONTABAND IS RELEASED.
Either Axl AND The former members (Duff, Slash...) decide to TALK or Guns n' Roses will die in the next 2-3 months.

Axl, take your responsability. It's a run against time...

There are so many reasons why this will never and should never happen. However since I am short on time I will just laugh at you.

HAHA!  

[KeVoRkIaN]

Best thing to do is to get this band back on track with buckethead.  Axl must have been on the phone with him recently.  Keep bucket at all costs and release the damn album.  Otherwise, I feel for the worse.  All of these headlines of chaos in the GNR camp futhur makes a mockery of Chinese Democracy.  It's time for this band to just get the job done. If buckethead is still under contract - perhaps he is trying some bargaining tactics.  I hope for the best and need to prepare for the worst.

[MadmanDan]

Of course, Finck and Fortus could definitely bear the burden.

Very true....but lets face it they ain't word class guitarits, competant yes, but hardly Slash, Buckethead, Perry, Wylde quality...and GNR needs that quality guitarist

Oh give me abreak!!!! BH,a world class guitarist,used in the same sentence with Slash and Joe Perry? WHO THE FUCK EVER HEARD OF HIM BEFORE HE JOINED GNR??

Enlight of all the new rumors going around I thought I would share this with you


As some of you may know I just came back from W. Hollywood a couple of days ago. While I was there two of the first people I met were the owner of the Rainbow and of the Whiskey Mario, and one of his floor managers Mike. Both had some pretty interesting information to share with me about the future of GNR. Mike told me that Duff told him (I feel so gay saying that) that if Axl called him up he would go back with GNR in a heartbeat no matter how well VR was doing. Though he said Slash would do the same, Duff wants it more.

He also said that when Slash comes into the Rainbow he sits in the same booth as the whole Novemeber Rain video thing. He said that Slash gets really quiet for the first 20 minutes or so because he is thinking about the old days and what not....

Take it for what it's worth, a reunion is only a phone call away.
Come on Axl get off your ass and give Slash and Duff a call.



 

[HoldenCaulfield]

I will be angry if the old band reunites. At this point in time, I'm more interested in hearing 'Chinese Democracy', 'The Blues', 'Madagascar', and 'Riyadh', and I really don't see the other old members wanting to play those...

Slash, Duff and even Izzy still have a lot of love for Axl. I'm sure Axl has it too but he is too proud to recognize it. The former members are Axl's part of life, Axl is part of the former members life.

I think so too.  But Slash & Duff recently went to Paris to promote their new album and great new band VR.  They looked fuking cool in the photos!    

I just dont see them throwing that all away to rejoin the redhead...  I love the old Guns, but it's not coming back.

A tool you may be, but ur not the sharpest tool in the toolshed. Don't believe such crappy rumours from mygnr.

We've got hundreds of interviews with former members saying a reunion is NEVER going to happen.

You know i have been a fan for a long time now and i really don't find that hard to believe.  With the egos left behind, the one thing they all share in common (Axl,Slash + Duff anyway)  is that they LOVED GN'R with a passion.  

You can't take the idea of a reunion to heart, but to say never in the GN'R world...... I don't know lol   I think now they have all soberd up and have all seen the world on an individual basis, to see and hear the reactions from people.  I'm sure they know the magic they created together.  

And i don't think it would be a case of dropping VR couldn't the two co-exist?  I think Axl would have to really prove his commitment though.  Which in my mind is the only point of concern. I still stand by my theory of a 20th anniversary Appetite reunion of some sort- even if we never get to see or hear about it.

[biddybaby]

 :)I love old gnr and would like to see a reunion I know the chances are slim to none
all the old gnr members are friends except axl it seems like axl forgot where he came from
scott weiland is busy with drugs and rehab the other guys seem to be done with drugs and are a lot straighter now and if bh is really gone and with cd taking forever to come out the old guys need a straight singer and maybe axl is taking so long  because he is lost without his old bandmembers  and doesn't realize it axl is hiring people and trying to make them gnr but its only gnr in name you don't hire your band mates band members come together from friendship a reunion makes sense axl needs to come back down to earth everybodys older and straighter now

[Lineker10]

I will be angry if the old band reunites. At this point in time, I'm more interested in hearing 'Chinese Democracy', 'The Blues', 'Madagascar', and 'Riyadh', and I really don't see the other old members wanting to play those...

Theres no reason why Axl couldnt reunite Gn'R with the classic lineup and release CD as a solo album. It wouldnt change the material if he simply called it Axl Rose instead of Gn'R. He could do solo shows with Finck,Fortus etc. - just like im sure Velvet Revolver would do their shows.
