Guns "&" Roses

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!

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?!

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.

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?

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.
