GUNS N' ROSES: No Reunion Planned - Dec. 11, 2008

Contrary to published reports, Axl Rose has no plans to reunite the most successful GUNS N' ROSES lineup. GUNS' co-manager Irving Azoff told Sal Cirrincione of Premiere Radio Networks, "There are no plans of a reunion, nor have there been any discussions of a reunion, with former GUNS N' ROSES band members. In the future, we hope that if media have any questions concerning GN'R, they'd at least check their facts before running inaccurate stories for their own benefit."

My thing is that I wouldn't be against a reunion if it were done for the right reasons.  As in these guys genuinely wanted to get back together and make great music again.  But that will never happen.  It would strictly be for the money and I don't want to see that. 

I also don't see Axl tossing guys like Tommy, Ron and Richard overboard to pad his own bank account.  Just doesn't seem like his style. 

If sometime in the future Slash, Duff, & Izzy joined back up w/ Axl I don't think it would be for the money... they all have money.

[R.B. Huckleberry]

Far as I'm concerned, I'd like to see the Chinese Democracy band take over the world.

no foolin'. I've listened to Cd several times a day for 2 weeks. I want more.

[ThatGuy]

it'd be cool to see izzy back writing with axl.  they wrote some good songs together.  then you'd see some izzy songs being played like pretty tied up, 14 years, etc.  dont really care about anyone else...

yeah, but let's face it... izzy writes kinda dumb simple songs.  nothing epic or grand or that deals with complex emotions and deepness.  it's just simple little two or three chord songs about the same old stuff.  izzy could write a great song about a car, or dinking beer, but there's simply no way he's capable of composing something as symphonic as this i love or street of dreams.  or even estranged.  he just doesn't have it in him.

[CaughtMeInaComa]

Ahh Shucks! Greatest thing ever could have happened. But ohh well. there's always next year.

[GnR-NOW]

I want to hear more songs from the members who ARE IN Gn'R.  TWAT, Sorry, This I love ... are grand songs.  Bach was lying when he said Sorry was mind blowing.  No matter who is in the band, you'll never recreate AFD.  The only progression that makes sense is to continue the sounds of Chinese Democracy.

[PJ]

Tommy seems really cool Minus his statement

What statement?

When he told D to get on board or fuck off?




/jarmo

i dont remember any bad comment of tommy about the band or axl
even in the worst years (2004-2005) he was always positive and talkative abut gnr and how axl was great and supportive

[D]

So lets see, Robin stabs Axl in the back twice and he is welcomed with open arms but a dude like Slash is public enemy number 1?

weird.



What more proof do some of u need on the subject? He didn't inform or tell GNR anything and Trent is posting that he isn't leaving NIN in 2009..........

It doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out what that means right?



I don't hold grudges right, I Mean the dude did get his with a bottle of piss or something, so saying Get On Board or Fuck Off was probably pretty cool considering the circumstance.

[reed2009]

people we got to go with the hand were dealt with and right now its axl's guns and the cd is fucking great and hopefully a great tour and lots of promotion follow

if in the future the old guys get back id be totally for it, but lets live for right now and see what unfolds in the future ! rock on gunners

Man you really are delusional. You don't know what the situation is between Robin and the band. Maybe his contract expired again (which is what happened in 1999/2000). Maybe he needed money to pay his bills. Who the fuck knows, but to say he stabbed Axl in the back twice is bullshit. Robin was in the band for 10 years dude and took a lot of shit from you so called fans in the process.

Man some people are beyond dumb. What do you know about Robin and Axl, or Slash and Axl for that matter? Two completely different stories and issues.

[draguns]

D, I definitely agree with what you are saying.  I like Chinese Democracy and I posted my review of it on Facebook. One of my friends stated  that" I'm blinded for my love of Axl" as a result of my review. With that being said, I see nothing wrong with a reunion when the time is right. It may or may not happen in 2012 when the band gets into the Rock N' roll Hall of Fame.  I think that people want to see it b/c there was never any closure to it.

[Jim Bob]

Those of you who seem disappointed by this news should seriously re-evaulate the reason you are at this board.

agreed.

[falungong69]

and look up the definition of the word "loyalty" while you're at it.

[CaughtMeInaComa]

I think you need to evaluate why you're here. All you do is bash people who would enjoy (in an way) the original band playing
together. OK, There IS a New GN'R! We get it Jim BoB. Now shut up. Stop harrasing people who type their opinions about
the old band. Get off your soapbox and trying to force your opinon down people's throat. There is room for us both here.

[D]

Oh I have plenty of loyalty to Axl unlike some guitar player who has left him twice now to play with somebody else and left him high and dry when the most anticipated release ever is out.

I don't understand why people keep giving this guy the benefit of the doubt. Dude wrote one fucking song and he is far from being irreplaceable.

I think the Robin situation is a huge reason why the promotion hasn't been that great because axl doesn't have a full band right now, one is fucking playing with a pop star Rihanna and the other is in a huge mainstream band.

So yeah, forgive me if its hard to fully get behind a bunch of guys who are always out playing with other people more than GNR.

[western_chaos]

It sounds like the person who wrote this statement woke up on the wrong side of the bed. 

LOL. I'm glad they responded to this though.

[jarmo]

True.

Your room is called Dead Horse.

So yeah, forgive me if its hard to fully get behind a bunch of guys who are always out playing with other people more than GNR.

Nice try.


Like I said, it would be nice to see you support the band like you support your other bands.
