Video of Duff's wife's friend mentioning reunion

[EmilyGNR]

Cause that homepage is as much of a joke as gnronline.com was

Ah, another whiny complainer.

If you don't  like it don't post there.

Problem solved.

[Gaymo, the Hobbit]

who said i post there?

[damnthehaters]

I heard sex in the library at Sacramento State.

Until I hear Axl, Slash, Duff or Izzy (we know Steven's not in the know) squash this than it's not going away. Why are they not squashing it???.......

Maybe because they have better things to do than waste their lives squashing the ten millionth reunion rumor strictly for the benefit of fans who just can't let go of it?

The only people suffering from bullshit reunion rumors are the people believing in them.  Not the band members.

Like I said, just tweet "No reunion guys, all these rumors are false.". Easy. 7 seconds.

why? that's free big publicity

To publicize what exactly??

It does keep the brand name "Guns N' Roses" out there.

poor way to do this, don?t you think?

[overmatik]

What also makes me wonder is the fact that Slash refuses to say anything about it, even if just to say there's nothing to it. So far he has kept his silence and won't even comment on it.

Nothing is going on with the band, but still the media are writing about them day in and day out, keeping them relevant without them having to do anything. Not a poor way seen from marketing perspective. Many people weren't even born in the 80s and reading about them in the media now is one of the ways the fan base keeps on growing.

Nikki Sixx says "any publicity is good" but I don't exactly embrace that concept.

One has to assume him and Axl are up to something. The money would be crazy

It's about inches folks, inches....





































Column inches and the media's need to fill 'em..... Truth doesn't necessary come in to it 

[Ow-So7411501]

The band doesn't squash the rumors because the speculation helps keep the "Brand" out there. Even the tweets are vague. Don't think for a moment that that's not on purpose. It benefits the originals who stand to gain (any publicity which promotes their band and helps to sell albums). The members who are still (are they?) in the band want to keep their jobs, so they'll stay quiet.

That's why I don't get why moderators and other posters here piss on others who speculate on Band Activity (or lack of).

But in what context, though?

Great news, everybody.  Axl Rose may have finally given up the ghost of touring with a bunch of nobodies and might be open to reuniting the line-up you know and love.

Isn't that the tenor of most things you read?  They all have the undercurrent of our long national nightmare being over.

I know some here take great offense to that, but you can't deny that's how it comes across.

Letting all this talk go unchecked, if there really is nothing to it, is going to make continuing with a new pack of randos that much harder.

Yeah, but as I posted above, maybe that what they want. Anything that keeps people speculating helps keep the brand out there. Benefits everyone. What I don't get is that if this is the case...why do certain people get pissed when fans speculate on a certain board?

[D-GenerationX]

I'm not sure I see the upside here.

Like it or not, if people are thinking reunion, word coming down that the next move is more touring with new random faces is going to seem like a distant second of a consolation prize.

I agree with this

I can see in the eyes of the general public.  If a north American tour was to be announced and after all this hype of a reunion  All we got was Axl and a couple more unknown musicians.   It would be a epic bomb

Now there's a fucking surprise!

Kidding.



The media focusing on the hypothetical reunion could be better than them not writing about GN'R at all.
Yes, some who read it actually believe it's already a done deal and it'll happen whenever the article states it's gonna happen. The rest are in the "I'll believe it when I see it" camp.

Anyway, I still think this thing has been cropping up constantly over the years and GN'R hasn't really said a whole lot about it then either.
