VR to begin work on new album in April!

[Feel_The_Burn]

I dont agree, I think its just grown men finally acting mature and realizing what a once in a lifetime chemistry and vibe they had and putting it to use before its too late.




I dont know if i want to see Slash do a Carlos Santana style solo album.......... I think those are kind of cheesy.......

wouldn't be as cheezy as some lame ass reunion.   besides, you can't reunite a band thats already together.

You know what he means  , Kiss went through various line up changes but still people love the original. I think they are all too smart NOT to get back together , really as said before name ONE major rock band that HASN'T got back together.

[Jim Bob]

fuck a stupid reunion.   you people still going on about wanting a reunion are

A. Unrealistic
B. need to get your head out of 1992
C. Disrespectful

"For the fans to attempt to condemn me to relationships even only professional with any of these men is a prison sentence and something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. I'd say my parole is nearly over. I'm practically a free man and if you don't like it you'll have plenty of time to get used to the idea."

Axl, August 2002.

Perfect quote, Jarmo.

Axl's happiness is what's most important at the end of the day, although it would appear some are too stunned to comprehend that.

If you're talking live performances, one that jumps out is Pink Floyd, unless you count a one off charity event where Roger Waters joined them to play 4 songs and was totally a one time deal.  If you're talking reunions where they actually reformed and made new music, the list grows considerably longer

I just don't see why there's such an overwhelming obsession with seeing them reunite for nothing other than money like the other bands have.  Reunion tours by and large are nothing but shameless cash grabs to make the rich richer, although there are exceptions this is pretty much the norm.  They just seem tacky to me but obviously the millions who pay to see the Van Halen tour disagreed.  But something about a bunch of rich musicians who don't like each other reuniting with the common goal of padding their already bulging bank accounts just seems cheesy to me

Yeah because he will never change his mind , ask him what he thought about the guys in '88 , bet it be a lot different. With age he might get a different perspective on things. I just think it's almost inevitable to happen.

fuck a stupid reunion.   you people still going on about wanting a reunion are

A. Unrealistic
B. need to get your head out of 1992
C. Disrespectful

A. Unrealistic possibly so , but thats what they said about Pink Floyd getting on a stage together , or Zeppelin playing again.

B. Last time I checked its 2008 , just because I think a "reunion" of some sort if eventually going to happen doesn't mean I'm stuck in any year. If guns puts out good songs it puts out good songs , but I've yet to see guns put anything out since Spaghetti Incident.

C. To who? The band members? Golly gee wizz would never want to hurt anyone's feelings , opinions are like assholes everyone has 'em.

I never said they would make a full on album  , I think they will eventually share a stage together.

Yeah, the perspective that you wanna do that reunion even less than before.   

It's gone from zero to negative!

  Peoples ideas can change through the years

The bottom line is that nothing can come between Slash and I

WOW!! LOOK AT THAT!

[jarmo]

Wait, you use an old quote to prove that the reunion is happening?

Clever.

- Axl Rose

WOW!! LOOK AT THAT!

Relationships start off well and go sour all the time.  That's pretty normal.  Axl said that when, in the 80's?  By the mid-90's a ton of shit had happened between them both personally and professionally to change that

In 2002, Axl said the comment Jarmo posted.  He said it after not speaking to Slash for 6 years.  Now, 6 years down the line, they still haven't spoken and the only interaction they've had has been lawsuits against each other. 

It's not really logical to make the comparison.  Because plenty happened between the quote you posted and the 2002 quote to sour their relationship.  Nothing that's happened since 2002 has happened that would mend the relationship, if anything what's happened between then and now has just soured what's left of the relationship even further, if you can even call it a relationship anymore.  They haven't spoken or even been in the same room as each other in 12 years

So Jarmo can validate the claim that a reunion isn't happening by using an old quote , but the opposite doesn't work? GENIUS

That is exactly my point THINGS CHANGE just because Axl feels he doesn't want it know , doesn't mean he can't want it later? Why is it always a one way street when discussing this. My point is people change , so a quote from 2002 doesn't mean anything 20 years from now.

EDIT: Anyways don't want this thread to go to shit , so I'm done discussing unless anyone has any smart remarks left , the thread is about VR and a possible new album not a GNR reunion.

If your quote is old, then that one can hardly be considered old.....



You also chose to ignore facts.

If you think Axl is more interested in a reunion today, then I don't think your reunion dreams are based in anything having to do with the real world.





Now back to discussing the next VR album.

Like I said, a TON of shit has happened between Axl and Slash on both a personal and professional level since the quote you posted

Nothing has happened between them on a personal level since the quote Jarmo posted, they haven't spoken to each other since then, and on the professional level both have filed lawsuits against each other which isn't exactly going to patch things up.  Jarmo's quote is relevant to their current situation, because in terms of their relationship, little to nothing has changed since that quote.  Meanwhile, the quote you posted is totally irrelevant because so much has changed between the time that was said and the time the 2002 quote was said

I never said that my point i was trying to get across was that things could change , from 92 he said nothing came between em and in 02 he said what you posted , so by 2012 ( nice year lmao ) who knows is what I was trying to get across. Of course he isn't more interested right now.

* Or lack there of thanks to a possible STP reunion 

[Limulus]

Axl January 2006:

As for a reunion with his former Gn'R mates, that seems unlikely. "I haven't spoken to Slash in ten years," Rose says. "I love the guy, I always wanted everyone to know how great he was, but.... I was just talking to Izzy the other day though."

there, i underlined the important parts.     

[Feel_The_Burn]

As I said change is always possibly , but of course I'm just disrespectful , stuck in the past , and unrealistic what do I know.

[Limulus]

your first underlined part isnt even an Axl quote  
but go on ignoring the "...i love this guy (= slash)..."-part he did 3,5 years AFTER that Axl press release from august 2002. off curse i do understand that it doesn fit in your anti-slash world.

its a fact that Axl changed his mind very often, so often that people cant rule out some kind of re-union ever.
but hups we talk about VR new album here, hope that will be made and turns out way better than the first 2 ones.

[Jim Bob]

it gets really fucking old, hearing you people whine for a stupid reunion.    theres no need, the band fucking perfect as it is.
