Here Today... Gone To Hell!

As you all know, Metallica was inducted this year. And i think GNR deserves it to.

What's your thoughts on that ? How should it go down   ???

I think it would be weird to get the "new" band to accept it, because at least 80% of the material came with the old lineup, and i don't think Axl's to keen on sharing the same stage as slash  :confused:

(maybe this has already been a topic)

here is how it will go down:

they will be inducted in 2012

I would be shocked if Axl showed up for it but if he is into it

U will probably see Axl and GNR do a song and Slash,Izzy,Duff and Adler do a song with a singer.

just hope it doesn't go on like Van Halen. that was embarrassing

 :rofl:

I don't think this topic has ever been discussed before.

By the way, does anyone know the release date for the next album...?  ???

You don't have to worry about that happening.

The five guys who get that honor will be the 5 who contributed to AFD.

I would love to see the 5 of them up there together. Won't happen. But it would be a pretty magic moment nonetheless.

yeah they definitly deserve it!  it would be great if they were mature enough to do one song.

You don't think the scenario that you just described wouldn't be embarassing?

Maybe they could arrange the largest stage in rock n roll history were Axl is kept a good half a kilometre away!  just kidding lol

They deserve it more than anyone.

I agree, any scenario would be embarassing unless they get there shit together and show up at least to honor there legacy. Im sure Axl and Slash dont have to stand by each other.

Actually, after thinking about this a little harder, I guess if they did perform together at the show the reunion talk would really take them by storm.  But there is no point in doing it unless all parties are happy to.  Would still like to see one song though!

There have been plenty of bands that have gotten over their hurt feelings to get back together.  Who would have ever thought that the Eagles, after all of their in-fighting, would tour and record again.  Same with Pink Floyd, the Police and DLR and Van Halen. 

That being said, I am not holding my breath.  Axl and Slash both need to do some serious growing up.

Yeah, that was pretty bad.

I think it would be the new band and maybe Duff and Izzy participating as well.

I personally still believe that creative differences will keep these guys apart forever.  See below quote from slash.  He knows that Chinese Democracy is a good album but we all must agree that the old band would never have been able to make it.  The old band were really raw.  A cool riff made so many great tracks.  Chinese Democracy is what Axl wanted GNR to evolve towards.  Its just a bigger production that the others went into.  Contraband shows the simple approach preferred by Slash/Duff.  Whichever you like is your own opinion.  A lot of us like both.  

Listening to CD and Contraband will definitly back this arguement up.

In my eyes, i wouldnt mind seeing a one off performance or a few shows but i dont think these guys will agree again creatively speaking, judging on these 2 albums.

Lets dont turn this into reunion talk

Axl has one thing that bands like Van Halen, Motley etc dont and that is, this guy just doesn't give a shit about fame or money... those bands reunited for the money and fame. Axl would never do something just for that which is why this is a different story.

Axl commented on this even...

He commented on Hall of Fame?

Apologies if that was aimed at me  :)

and you're correct about Motley and Van Halen!

yeah in his QaA.  ill try and find exactly what he said now.

I believe Slash said something like "I hope we could be mature enough" and Axl said "Thats cute" (Of slashs post). 

Ill try and locate it now.

NO, i just don't want the thread locked which is why I said that about the reunion.

Hi

This is what Slash said in relation to the RNRHOF.



This is what Axl said

Thank you jacdaniel, iv'e been looking for quotes about this from the guys for a few days now ( also one of the reasons i got this thread together ) 
 : ok: : ok:

Personally I think if Axl wasn't involved than the rest of the guys should just stay away from it too. The Van Halen one felt very half assed but Metallica this past year was great.

Not to sound negative, but GNR being inducted in 2012 or even a few years after that isn't a given. I mean, there are some bands like Iron Maiden, KISS and The Stooges who haven't made it in. Those bands' debut albums came out in 1980, 1974 and 1969 and despite their popularity/influence etc. haven't been inducted.

If/when GNR are inducted, relationships between people might be very different than they are now so it's difficult to speculate what could happen.

No problem mate!  :) Had to do a bit of digging to find em!

As we all know, G'N'R will be eligible for the RNR hall of fame in '12. 

the theory:

They will do a one off reunion show.  However, Axl and Slash steping on the same stage together, to do a soundcheck a couple hours before the show will be the first event in timeline zero, when everything imagineable will happen.  Shortly afterwards, the universe will cease to exist, then, rebirth.  Billions of years later, GNR will reunite and so the cycle repeats.


Okay, I'm joking...  OR AM I!?

There is a thread for this in already in this same section.  :)

Where's a facepalm smiley when you need one?
Oh well, i'll give the link instead:

 ;)

why arent gnr on the hollywood walk of fame?

heres my wild guess...at the rock hall you will see Steven, Slash, Matt and Duff...and MAYBE Izzy...  Instead of GNR tearing the roof off the place like Metallica did, you will see Fergie and the Black eyed Peas do renditions of GNR songs...or something equally lame..

Bands can't be inducted until about 25 years after a bands first album is released, is my understanding, so they wont be eligible until 2012

Hell yeah I think that it would go down like just the old line up would play in the bands they each made for themselfs hell with all the things you could tie to GN'R it could fill up a whole wing in the RNR hall of fame!!!!

Good fuckin question but I dont know???

Im taking your stash away your out of your fuckin mind high :rofl:

I was thinking that too and knowing some people with there own agendas I think there is a strong possibility that it could happen (the RNR Hall of fame part I dont think the reunion part but it could happen)
