i went to 4 shows from one of the first to the very last in 2006, and I never once saw a poster promoting any ex-members.   Same with the show I saw in 2002.


Hmm.. I can't say I saw banners at every show that I saw in 2002/2006, but I did see 3 shows in 06' - 1 that had banners promoting the original lineup and I saw a 2002 show in Pittsburgh that had the same banner hanging.
I remember reading from many differnet sources that all  the advertsing (including TV commercials) over in Europe before the Spring 2006 festival dates included only originals members. And mostly Axl, Slash & Duff. This was right before Bumblefoot was announced as the new Guitarist and the rumors of a Reunion and Slash rejoining were everywhere. This Ad campaign obviously fueled that fire, until the tour kickoff in N.Y.C. with Bumblefoot on guitar

Well, I'm 110% sure the band had no idea of that...

And I don't expect them to be searching for posters or ads so they can make sure that it's just them on all kinds of advertising...

That is right. Clips of Axl from the old videos... not the band.

very possible, I never saw the TV commercials.........I did see posters with pictures of only Axl, Slash & Duff ( this was interstesting because VR's downhill slide had just begun with Slash's supposed rant to Axl about how much he disliked his band members)..........It was probably just the promoters making a buck

What ashamed they got that Tennessee swill to sponsor. Someone needs to show up with some of Kentucky's finest, and show the people what GOOD liquor tastes like.

Old images of GN'R were used for the poster, cause they're (unfortunately) a lot more recognizable to most people.

Poor excuse, like the people who will visit will be non GnR fans who don't know about the changes. Come on, the ones visiting will be fans who already know about the changes, in detail. Even people who are not following GnR know Slash is gone and in VR. but there he is on the poster.

It is because of stuff like this that the current line-up isn't getting exposure...nice job living in 1987 and making up excuses for it by wanking over old pictures...I know I will get flamed for saying this because you are a "HTGTH Crew" but screw that, it's the truff peace

Really, what would one expect? The event is sponsored by that Lynchburg Piss Water.

until the NEW GnR release a record, this is the reality of the situaution...Slash is a household name that everyone associates with Guns N Roses 2nd only to Axl............if you did a public poll that lists 8 people,  Slash, Robin Finck, Tommy Stinson, Dizzy Reed, Bumblefoot, Chris Pitman, Richard Fortus, Frank Ferrer. And then asked which names they associate with Guns N Roses, Slash would easily beat the combined vote total of the whole new band  ok

Nice way to spin what I said, Slashhead.

We are talking about folks who are not GnR fans...they won't visit these events so no need to make a poster with them in mind.
GnR fans will visit these events...they all know what is going on. So put a poster of Axl and Finck in there, they will know it is GnR.

In fact, post just a poster of Axl and everyone on this planet knows it is GnR....even people who don't listen to the music. So there goes your theory.

 And read slowly, maybe you will understand the point  peace

The current line up isn't getting exposure cause of stuff I do? Check out Gunsnroses.gr first and then open your mouth... You have no fuckin idea...

It's the "truff" that you have in your own head, for which I don't give a flying fuck...

I don't care when people, who have probably done nothing more than post a bit on the internet, tell me how to do whatever they think is "right".

I stick with the reason I stated. The old members are UNFORTUNATELY still more recognizable than the new ones, and until Chinese Democracy is released and we get some official videos it will be like this, whether we like it or not.

There are people that don't even know that GN'R played in Greece in 2006, cause it all happened in 2 weeks with almost no promotion (except from ours)...

You ignored the point I was making....nice.

Read again slowly, only GnR fans are gonna visit these events...so the poster is directed to them.....anyone who thinks there is 1 GnR fan left in this galaxy who doesn't know Slash left a decade ago, is or demented or a Slash fanatic who just can't get over it. I am not saying you are, I'm saying the ones who believe that rubbish ok

So yes, you are insulting the current lline-up with that poster. If another person had posted what you did, it would have been removed or placed in another section. I won't say more here because you will just ignore the point again and keep that retro poster, so anyway.

And the guy who said Axl isn't the band...first that was not the point. I was talking about recognizing members by non GnR fans....you say Axl, they say GnR...you say Slash to them, they say VR and the guy who appeared on Ellen trying to sell his house peace
