One Man's Plan To Reunite Guns N' Roses (Mini-Doc)

"A short documentary about one man's plan to get Guns N? Roses back back together. Growing up best friends with Slash and Axl, Marc Canter had a front row seat for the rise and fall of one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Nearly thirty years later, if anyone knows what it will take to get them back together it?s him."

Another of those "I'm the only one who can reunite them" bullshit claims but I still found this video interesting. Marc Canter is the one who wrote the "Reckless Road" book.

I watched this yesterday.

Can't imagine Axl is terribly thrilled with it.

He didn't actually state that he could reunite them... not that it matters

Cool video of Axl playing at his wedding... say what you want about this guy... but he was extremely close with both guys. Certainly, he was pushed from Axl's life.

I never really warmed to the whole Canter thing.  The dude seems WAY stuck in the distant past. 

When he talks, I kind of feel like I'm listening to Al Bundy talking about scoring 4 TDs in one game for Polk High.

I think you could say the same thing about any of us posting on a Guns N? Roses fan forum in 2015.

The major difference being that Marc was actually there, and has forgotten more about Guns N? Roses than we will ever know.
It?s also thanks to him that we have Reckless Road, which is a pretty fucking awesome document of the classic lineup.

Hahaha agreed.

I don't think he is malicious or out to make a dollar doe.

He wouldnt denounce Slash. therefore the powers at be put him on a list... then doing his thing on mygnr had to put a nail in the coffin. He seems naive about how that could be seen as a good thing in Axl's eyes.

Agreed... Everybody has on opinion but he was best friends with both guys, not some fan postin on the internet. He has a unique perspective. Unfortunately no longer, so when he answers about questions about how Axl might feel today... He is obviously just speculating, albeit from a different angle than most.

The book is aces.

There is a section on that site where he answers questions. Nothing outrageous or malicious. just his opinions on Classic GNR and stuff about old shows and setlists.

Sometimes people will ask why does a hate b and he gives pretty standard answers, nothing anybody hasn't heard before.

[DeN]

so, who don't think he can reunite GNR these days?

funny to see all the crows around a rumoured dead body.

[axlvai]

Good Luck Mark!!!!

Crossfingers here.

That was the band i really felt in love... n i will love forever

[Sosso]

A reunion just for money and nostalgia? nope.

[axlvai]

Maybe a reunion for music? That is good?

[Sosso]

Nope.

[mortismurphy]

A reunion for 'money and nostalgia' would be terrible. Far better to play Appetite in casinos. Oh, wait...

[D-GenerationX]

Never really bought into all this supposed disdain if they reunited for "money and nostalgia".

You'd be there buying tickets with the rest of us.  Stop the madness.

Would we really expect an album?  Axl can't release songs that are done for 10 years.  But he's going to "dive in and find the monkey" with the old guys, post haste?

Not likely.

[jarmo]

Certain fans who would wet themselves if there was a reunion are the same ones who've been whining about the "cash grab" and "pointless" touring. Ironic.
