Frustrations for the band

ahhh, VR lovers. i did not just say that.

I love the old band.  Without the old band I wouldn't be following this new band.  And people who have a problem with me saying new band, listen to Axl at RIR3.  He himself says "The New Band"  But I'm not going to judge the new band till I hear CD basically.

As far as "bands" they are both bands.  They have just come together and stayed together in seperate ways.  I doubt there are many differenes between the Illusion Era Guns communication and The Chinese Era Guns Communication.

yeah I am suprised they sat this long, but it's not a band it's session players hired to help axl create his ultimate album.. it's no difference then ozzy after sabbath just axl kept the name.. Just like BH could leave anyone could and it would go on.. They work on their things full time then come backw hen axl needs them.. A band has much more say, axl has all the say..

Best post I've read all day....

everyone has their own definition of what a band is, this is not what I call a band.. Anyways when you get into more then second line of replacements that have been in the band as long or longer as some real gnr players and you have zero to show for it, no material and tommy has been in since 98 and no one knows this.... It's hard to get through to some because tthey want gnr to exist so bad they think anything called gnr is gnr, or anything with axl is gnr...

Off that I feel for the guys, I'm sure axl promised them a hell of a lot sooner and they have had to wait.. They had to bite their tongues so they could be able to be apart of their material one day.. You know how stupid tommy must feel being asked day after day for years about cd and having no clue or the rights to say anything about it or his "band"
I mean cause bands only the lead singer knows anything, in a band the players aren't allowed to say anything

hired guns? . . . ha ha. they are a band whether you like it or not

I just cannot understand why people won't accept it!

               The old Guns n Roses were a true " Band " in the sense they toured , did interviews and released music. By the Illusion albums however...things changed. Slash and others claimed the album was produced nearly like how the Beatles did the " White Album ".  With the band truelly not being togethor at all.

                    I really can't judge this G'n'R yet. They have done shows as a band. The clips of them at Rock in Rio seems very cool .
