Re: Tommy/Westerberg consider a Replacements reunion
Okay, if Tommy's out then the cards are really on the table for a reunion.
The cards have been on the table since the second Weiland walked out the door.
We're probably much closer to one happening then people realize.
my fantasy of seeing Slash and Fortus sharing a stage.
That will never happen. We'll never see a CD era member onstage with a reunited old lineup. There's no reason for it. The moment Axl screams and Slash starts playing Jungle, to paraphrase Amon Goeth in Schindler's List, "the past 12 years become nothing more than a rumor".
Re: Tommy/Westerberg consider a Replacements reunion
Let's don't start the Tommy's Out stuff just yet.....:rolleyes:
No one's starting anything. He said "if", and I think you of all people would agree that if Tommy does a Replacements reunion tomorrow and he's booked for a year or so, you're going to wonder what his status in GNR is.

except for maybe the drummer
in the case of a reunion, i see axl keeping frank or brain over bringing matt back. but maybe it's wishful thinking.

Re: Tommy/Westerberg consider a Replacements reunion
Matt and Axl supposedly made peace back in 06, should we see a reunion don't be surprised to see Matt behind the drum kit.

nothing would surprise me-
axl is at "peace" with the other mentioned drummers as well. it's not like matt is this incredible drummer who is a no brainer as long as he and axl are at "peace".
he also is not an original. for the same reasons i would not expect gilby to come back either.

Re: Tommy/Westerberg consider a Replacements reunion
Adler is too unreliable, he could be ok to do a full reunion tour or he might be unable to feed himself from one day to the next. Are they really going to risk a $100 million+ grossing tour on Adler, not unless he can get completely clean and I don't see it happening. As for Brain or Frank it's possible but I don't see it happening really. Matt's on good terms with Slash and Duff so he's as likely as anyone to get the spot should it happen.
Having said that if Axl, Slash, Duff and Izzy reunite and play together they could hire a performing chimp to drum for them and nobody would really care.
