The article for some serious faults in it...
But nothing new really...and if you agree with some of the stuff they write there I gotta ask what people actually knows about GNR history...
Like saying Axl and Slash was the duo and core of GNR when it actually was Axl and Izzy..and how its an ever changing line up when most band members have been there for the last 6 years, some even more.
And how its shocking that people didnt react to the new songs...well dauh..they hadnt heard them before...

Yeah I love how all articles about concerts focus on how the crowd doesn't react to the new songs. People go to concerts to hear the classics, the songs they know, they sing along, now the songs well. The new songs, are, well, new. What do they expect people to do. Granted many people have heard the demos, but probably not as many as you'd think. And another thing, why does everyone have to say that the band is trying to replace Slash with THREE guitarists. I guess Izzy Stradlin and Gilby Clarke meant nothing to the band since we need ZERO guys to replace them and THREE to replace Slash. How do these reporters get these jobs anyway.

For Dutch reviews this one is pretty mild. I would've thought the Dutch press would slaughter Axl since the Dutch music press is pretty Indie minded. They sorta accept the fact that the original GnR will never play again and settle for Axl's version of it.....

That was a pretty fair and accurate review for the most part. Axl has no hope in hell of passing this band off as Guns N' Roses, without Chinese Democracy on the shelves. ?

that's right. That I do agree on. They need to have that album out. They need to drop more than just one album too. They will always be hired musicians in the press UNTIL they release a lot of albums and tour like hell and make a name for themselves.. But they always have to do some of the old shit... |

that's right. Yeah and even then they're always gonna be compared to the old band. Each album is gonna be compared to AFD. It's not gonna be easy by any means. I don't really expect the media or the masses to accept them as Guns N' Roses. Not for quite some time at least. I've already moved on though. And I'm thrilled as hell they're making any sort of news at this time. |

I don't really expect the media or the masses to accept them as Guns N' Roses.? Not for quite some time at least.? I've already moved on though.? And I'm thrilled as hell they're making any sort of news at this time. As you can see with some of the whining bunch here, its a loose-loose situation for Axl and the band and I have a lot of respect for him actually wanting to do this. Yeah I'm sure he has enough money where he could comfortably sit on his ass and do nothing for the rest of his life, collecting royalties. But he loves his music, loves the fame, the fortune. I just hope he can handle it if the new band isn't quite as successful as the old band because that's gonna be tough to do. |

Being as big as they used to, I don't know. |

There is no doubt in my mind that Axl can be the biggest thing in rock once again. He doesn't really have much competition in the rock world. U2 and Metallica are still around, but their best albums appear to be far behind them. I think Chinese Democracy will be an awesome album but it will unlikely reach Appetite success. I just don't think a 44 year old Axl can connect to a new generation like a 25 year old Axl could. He can be the biggest thing in modern rock but he will never be as big as he was between 87-93.

Axl is planning a serious comeback this time round and we'll all just have to settle for that.
Would you rather "settle" for Velvet Revolver? Not I. Bring on Captain A! |
