The success of Motley Crue could impact Guns N' Roses?

TO stay on TOPIC. If the crue can have success with this tour. It should be easy for AXL to out do them condsidering Vince Neil now sings like the biggest wanker ive ever heard.

I just saw The Crue on Jimmie Kimmel and I have to say that Vince Neil really sucks now. What the hell happend to that guy?

If the Crue can pull off a tour with Vince sounding like this than Axl should have no problem gettin back out there and doin CD right.

People think Axl is washed up, please Vince is so uncool now it aint even funny. I mean, this guy sounds REALLY bad. Axl stiill has his power and range, anyone who has seen the new GnR can vouch for that. 

I cant fuckin wait for GnR to get out there and slay everyone in their path.

OUT

The only possible way I think this could effect the Nu Gn'R is if the Motley Crue reunion is so utterly successful that somewhere down the line Axl has thoughts of reuniting the old band together.

I totally agree with you and, fingers crossed, if Motley's reunioun tour is successful maybe just maybe Axl and the other four originals may follow suit and do their own reunion tour.? And I know I am dreaming but hey dreams are free and it would be fantastic if it happened!

axl has way more integrity than motley crue, they are reuniting for the fans and for money/fame etc

axl has money, doesnt appear to really want fame and doesnt ever seem concerned about his fans

so i think a GNR reunion is a helluva less likely to happen than any other band. so Axl would never do something for the money, so i cannot see a gnr reunion happening

if the New GNR is a failure axl will just retire into the sunset forever.

Why do people always think that the success of some older band will help axl realise something and he will release the album..?

People must think axl's mindless..

I bet the other band members sit around hoping motley crue does good so they will be able to hit the road.. Hey guys if motley crue does good then the album will finally be out..

The one thing I will say do you feel motley crue fans feel that the crue will become really big again and top the charts?? I ask that because every new gnr fan is so sure that theior band will make the ultimate comeback..

I know mc wasn't as big as gnr but they were pretty damn big and successfull..

It's nice to me, I use to love MC... More rock is always a bonus, jsut funny how the bands coming back r now clean

interesting comparission, but sorta insulting (haha---don't like that corny metal stuff...sorry for those here that I offend, but I always thought MC were theatrical and old school...)
I'd like to think GNR were in a league of it's own, and it wouldn't really matter what the rest of the world was doing musically.  However, this is not the case (i.e. GNR were HIGHLY relevant when they first burst out of the scene in the late 80s and stood apart from the pop-poodle-metal.  But then when grunge came around, GNR seemed bloated and decadent--although I love thier musical work during this time).
So I really hate this comparison, bc I see gnr as more musically credible and relevant.  But that's my opinion. 

oh, and a side note:
It's mentioned that ppl who will be goin to the MC shows will want to relive that magic that they felt when they were younger.  But isn't that what we were doing when we went to the last GNR tour?  Wasn't Axl mostly singling songs from AFD??  But that's like all good "old" bands/musicians.  Mainstream fans wanna hear the hits.

Well if Motley Crue tour over here like they are supposed to then I will be there to get tickets.? At the end of the day it will probably be the last time that they do a world tour and I definately want to see them.? You guys in America dont know how lucky you are with all the bands you can go and see at any time.? We are lucky if we get one decent rock act over here a year - although we are spoilt next year with VR and Green Day!!? So anyway Motley coming here is a huge deal and I cant wait and I dont care if they are doing it for the money as long as their concert rocks!! ? ?
