axl -n- slash

[marknroses]

Great idea.
However, Slash would blow Axl right off stage unfortunately.
If its anything that I saw between the NU-GNR and the VR concerts, Slash is still the enigmatic, dynamic guitar performer that he was in GNR's heydays, but Axl has definitly lost a few steps in his frontman repertoire. Unless he finds his rhythm, he may just want to stick with the NU-GNR if they ever put out the record.

How exactly would a guitar player blow a lead singer off the stage?

And why exactly would axl need to find his rhythm to share a stage with slash?

MNR, that was a really dumb post.

Even though I think Slash is one the best guitarists ever, nobody is ever gonna blow W Axl Rose off stage. It just doesnt happen! He is one the greatest frontmen ever and fans cant take their eyes off him when he is on stage, he controls the crowd completley. Now whilst Slash is one of the greatest guitarists he ent never gonna controls a crowd like Axl does!

[nesquick]

he controls the crowd completley

I remember at the VMA'02 the crowd couldn't stop looking at Axl. I saw it on TV and I felt it. There was something "magic" in the air. Unfortunately, I've never seen Axl "in real" Live in front of my eyes. Now, When I saw VR in Paris, Slash also had an incredible stage presence (so had DUFF).? I was very impressed. I know now why the original band was phenomenal, put Slash, Duff and Axl, and you have the most thrilling and charismatic band on earth.
The charisma is a significative part in the success. Look at Madonna.

Its a nice Idea but its js not gonna happen buddy. 

[jameslofton29]

Nesquick, you hit the nail on the head. No one will ever have the stage presence that Axl had. It was completely unreal. I seen GNR in July 1991, and you're right, everyone's eyes were glued on him. Kinda funny actually. Axl runnin all over the stage and everybody's eyes following him. You had to watch him. Not only was his performance "mindblowing", but you had absolutely no idea what the guy was gonna do next. As much as I get frustrated with the CD situation, Axl will always be the greatest. Which makes this wait even that much more ridiculous. Cause the guy has nothing to prove. The whole world knows what he's capable of.

[nesquick]

Unfortunately back in the days I was way too young to go to a concert. in 1991 I was 9 or 10.
Some people say Axl is still great, but not as great as he used to be at his top in the early 90s (musically and physically). But I still would like to see him onstage. Just to accomplish that thing:? "I saw Axl onstage". Even once would satisfy me. As soon as I have the chance to see my favourite singer in real at least once in my life, I would be happy

Hope to see him on a big gig in Paris though, I want a big show not a small club, "parc des princes" (50.000 people) would be great. This is a wonderfull stadium, not too big, with a great sound, you see very well everywhere, it's the perfect place for the band. This is the stadium of the football team Paris-Saint-Germain (PSG). My favourite team?

[snakepiter]

the smallest the shows the better......

[jameslofton29]

Snake, I agree 100 percent!! If Axl releases CD, he better not make the mistake of starting off with a stadium tour. He should do like a 20 city mini tour here in the U.S. performing in small clubs. It would be incredibly cool if they played in an intimate setting. It would also be a way of gauging interest in the band without risking a huge arena/stadium tour. He should also pull a John Fogerty and only play the new stuff, no classics.

Axl n' Izzy

[Gunna_girl01]

i am not sure wether they are going to re-unite but hey... lets hope for the best...

i am not sure wether i would want it to be axl and slash...
i would like them all to be there 

[nesquick]

the smallest the shows the better......

I don't agree. I prefer big shows. I agree with the idea to do a small club tour to start, but after a certain period of time, it needs to be bigger. I'd like to see a big spectacle like the Pink Floyd shows when they return in 1994/95.
something ala RIR 3 with a big stage, big lights, big sound, big crowd etc...

[usurper]

Well if they ever bury the hatchet , It would be better that they tour with the banner of GNR... instead of Axl n Slash...

anyway.. I would like Chinese democracy to be a solo album... like david lee roth

I wouldn't waant axl n slash billed as gnr, I would want it as axl n slash because they aren't gnr by themselves even if they are the most reconizable.. Write a few songs, just have a good time in their older age..

well man, I said that because I think that if they ever got together the should tour with the gnr banner... that means with the whole band...? its just my opinion

that is soft...? can you tell me why page and plant toured only the two of them... and not with the other led zeppelin guys?

One was dead and the other wasn't asked (cause they didn't like him)

[mikegiuliana]

come on 'gnr" can pull of an arena tour they just have to say hey we're here to stay and release some material, the gnr name alone could carry a tour.. Gnr is retro, retro os in stlyle people want to say hey I saw gnr and gnr fans of old would want to catch a show too.. 15-20 thousand seaters is child's play.. Now if it wasn't called gnr then small clubs then building up would be better, but no way axl is going to do that ordinary new band leg work, he's a big name.. The interviews the cameras the fans close to the stage.. afd axl definetly,. not braides oversized team jerseys axl..

Because John Bonham is dead, and they do not want to re-unite without him (so I understand).

[ppbebe]

I think John Paul Jones and the other two are close friends and they've done a show or two with Bonham Jr. as Led Zeppelin.

you never know. maybe someday
