New Band

[GNVR]

Don't worry, this is not a new band vs. old band thread.

What I'd like to know is, who here thinks that the new band really represents Guns N' Roses?? What I mean by that is: Do all the new members have the style, stage present, attitude and look needed to be in GNR?? Axl Rose decided to rebuild this band and get a fresh start.? In 2002, they were referred to as a circus emsemble (or whatever the term) and people mocked them non stop (especially BH).? Today, they all pretty much have the same rockstar look as Axl does, and to me, feel and look more and more like a real band rather than a cast of hired guns like in 2002.? My question is:? Which new members truly fits the embodiment of the new GNR?? In? MY opinion, Tommy Stintson, Richard Fortus, Dizzy Reed and Ron Thal all have IT.? Robin Finck (even with the new look), Brain and Chris Pittman do not look the part.? Any thoughts?

Bullshit, this is the very essence of a new band v. old band thread.

and what are you comparing the look of nugnr too exactly the way they look is what nugnr looks like any comparrison turns this into a OLD vs New thread

Compare GNR in 2001-2002 to today.? Back then, it was Axl Rose and the replacement.? In my opinion, it was hard to support them cause it didn't feel real.? Players like BH, Paul Toabias and others didn't fit.? It was a hired cast except Tommy.  I've always felt like he was perfect in GNR.  Today, I look at what Axl's done and I think that he's succeeded in rebuilding this band.? These guys really gel and are exciting to watch.? Again, I'm not talking about the old band here...

I disagree...I think Fink looks spot on now.

His 02 goth look just didn't suit the rest of the band. I mean it should be about the music not looks anyway...but if we're going on looks then 2006 is major improvement on 2002.

I think the new band looks ok as a band together now. Although i've never seen the need for 3 guitars really, it doesn't seem like theres that many places where a 3rd guitar part adds a lot to the songs.

v2002 vs v2006 (sounds like a Version of Windows Software )

v2006 looks much more like a rock band, v2002 lookd like a circus freakshow
