Oh, and just for the record, our main difference is that I believe in this band and a poster does not prove otherwise...

On the other hand a few posts do...

I went to a few shows together with a whole group in 2006.... they all (and I) thought Finck was the least impressive guitarist and were most impressed by Fortus. Live too sloppy, sounding embarrassing many times even, noone can deny that  peace

I don't think he left GnR, this is just a few months touring with NIN.. but if he left, I see no problem. People who now pretend he is GnR should get a grip  hihi

Bucket and Fortus is all this band needs ok

You want an ex member in the band?  rofl

Just stop posting and kissing asses...

I am the guy who designed this poster, and the main reason i did it the way you see was explained by Chris and it is more than clear.
Until the time the present lineup is fixed and Guns N' Roses as we know them today release a series of new promotional pics (including individual member pics) and music videos, people and fans will never be able to IDENTIFY with these new members. Image is all that counts. Different indivuals in a band, different personalities. This is my point of view. I love and promote the new band, but i tend to see how things communicate visually.
There are thousands of pictures and videos out there of the old band people grew up with and recognise. We should embrace this history
My only wish is that the new GNR will soon present themselves to a whole new generation of fans and we will reach a point where the new pictures and videos of those new members will be synonymous to the name Guns n Roses. People like Chris and Jarmo strugle hard in presenting the new band as an entity, with a new identity.
More than all that, this is a tribute party to the history of the band, i see nothing wrong with accepting the fact that the people in this poster are loved and still connected for so many people with Guns N' Roses.

I'd just like to add that these parties are also a peek at the present and future of the band, through the few pro-shot videos we have, the videos that are worth playing at a tribute party... (RAR 2006, Download 2006).

I don't believe that RIR III is a good video that represents the current lineup.

Quote from: Christos AG link=topic=51690.msg1068736#msg1068736
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

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
Maybe you are missing the point of all this...........Guns N roses "Appetite" etc..... is 20 years old now, most of the fans from the old days have grown up, got married, had a family, and started careers. Many of them don't give a f*ck who is in Guns N Roses in 2008.....does that make them not fans?, just cause they don't "troll the internet for new Chinese Democracy leaks while posting on GNR message boards". I disagree, these people are Fans,..... but GNR to them is, and probably always will be Axl & Slash because thats what they grew up on. Guns are CLASSIC ROCK now, AFD & UYI are, and will be a part of our pop culture till the day we die and maybe beyond......and like it or not Slash was part of it.

First party went GREAT but no pics cause we were too fuckin drunk to take any. I believe we only took one...

We didn't make the same mistake last night though... LAST NIGHT WAS FUCKING AMAZING!!!!

I've got MANY pics and i'll post them as soon as I go back to Thessaloniki on Monday.

But last night's highlight for me were the GREAT reactions when we played Knockin On Heaven's Door from Rock Am Ring 2006...

People loved it and they kept asking me where they could find this video. They were asking for new songs, we played the ones from Rock Am Ring...

AMAZING NIGHT...

PICTURES & DETAILS SOON...

yea i think it would have been cool to put current members on the poster rather than old members.   you say its because the old guys are more recognizable, but you are doing nothing to help that.   otherwise it sounds cool.

"Said - said - said: I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in trenchtown,
Oba - obaserving the ypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet.
Good friends we have, oh, good friends weve lost
Along the way.
In this great future, you cant forget your past;
So dry your tears, I seh."

Bob Marley

I don't expect you to understand the meaning of these lyrics... It takes half a brain to understand them...

you say its because the old guys are more recognizable, but you are doing nothing to help that.

And how would YOU know that?
