#201 Re: Guns N' Roses » As the reunion rumors are on a treadmill... » 508 weeks ago
"I have to write some copy this weekend on Guns 'N Roses for a feature to go with my photos. [...] If you tell the truth it sets off too many wars, or egos way out of control. The original line-up is supposed to play Download in June with their metal chums, Metallica, if Lars can be bothered to turn up." (Ross Halfin, 02/04/06)
New GN'R played Download that year. And by February that plan must have already been in motion along with everything else. 2006, after the leaks, was the year Axl tried to do what he failed in 2002 - release CD and make a successful comeback. I doubt that he would have been willing to forget about CD at that point and to go through with a reunion. Who knows where Halfin got that information from. Somethings might have been mixed up, or mis-interpreted by him.

Thank you for the link. I just read the whole article. I don't wanna participate in any Steven bashing, but when you read the whole thing it's nearly impossible not to understand why Slash and Duff won't play with him. If there ever should be a reunion tour, Steven will never ever be their drummer.

I gotta start listening to radio shows and podcasts. On Metal Sludge I read where Adler was on Trunk earlier and was bitching about Gilby, Sorum, and he even said Duff didn't like him. He's fucking crazy. Even if a reunion isn't close, its closer than its ever been and in this situation he needs to keep his mouth shut. Any time he opens his mouth, the chances decrease on his involvement. Someone listening also said he sounded high.
Do you have a link for that? Was that a new, i.e. recent interview? I would be curious to hear/read the part about Duff..

With ITW finally gone, it's getting really difficult for me as I really like all of the remaining songs. I went with Street Of Dreams this time. I still haven't gotten over the fact that it's not called The Blues anymore.
#206 Re: Guns N' Roses » Baz pipedreams about DJ/Guns song » 508 weeks ago
fine by me. I don't think DJ's contribution is needed for any future GN'R release. Plus this way we would at least get to hear what he would have brought to the table.
#207 Re: Guns N' Roses » Dissecting Chinese Democracy: Oh My God » 509 weeks ago
I kid you not, OMG was the song that got me into GN'R in the first place. I was still pretty young - maybe around 13 years old (my guess is that it was in 2001 or early 2002) - when I first discovered it for myself. I must have had heard some of the hits before, but somehow I hadn't really gotten into them. I found OMG by chance in a MP3 collection my uncle had given to me. I got so hooked by it that I went on to go through all of GN'R's albums trying to find out where it came from. Obviously I found something else. A year later I had ALL solo releases up to that point and half of my lifetime later I'm still here following every bit of news

Doom & Gloom is a fantastic song. Keith's album is pretty great too. They still have the spark

Those three songs might include some of the stuff Richard mentioned that is based on Slash's own riffs.

As for an album/reunion, I wouldn't mind a CD2, but I don't foresee it. If, and it's a big IF, GnR reunited with the AFD or UYI era (Sorum) and announced it soon, they could definitely being selling dates for next summers tour. Would have to happen soon tho. A Super Bowl reunion would rock the house, but wouldn't happen not just due to lack of interest & commitment, but the strict timelines & Axl's notoriousness to being late. Ashame, that would definitely generate buzz.
According to the insiders, Duff has made it clear he wants back in, Slash or no Slash, and has wanted back in for a while. He wasn't just doing the band a solid playing the SA tour with them.
Not buying it. I'll believe it if it happens, but I don't think Duff would join this lineup:
Axl
Robin
Rich
Duff
FrankIt just seems like a terrible mish-mosh of random people.
I actually could see that happen. Don't forget that Duff was still in the band when Robin joined.
I played with Robin a few times and he’s a great guy.
And he seemed to be very open to the new guys when he filled in for Tommy. IMO, Duff rejoining is way more likely than a reuinion that includes both Duff and Slash.

I'm voting ITW until it's gone. Can't believe it's still here with TIL and Catcher gone.
