  • I can't see it happening, or if they did reunited it would collapse due to Axl. Probably the first band I ever got into yet have never had any interest in seeing the new Axl band. Guns 2 Roses are a good cover band, they had Ben Dover playing drums for them a couple of weeks ago. :smiley:

    first gig i ever went to was guns n roses at wembley stadium in 92, support from faith no more and soundgarden. awesome indeed.
    Bloody hell!Actually saw the original Black Sabbath line up supported by those last summer, perhaps longer. Faith no more predictably stealing the show.

    That's the problem with the 'real' Guns N' Roses. Nobody other than Axl really considers them to be anything more than a GNR cover band!

  • Funny enough I'm going to see Slash tonight here in Prague. Only discovered its on on Monday, completely under promoted, and in some large shed about the size of the old Croydon Greyhound, but much more err...gritty. .I'm not a G&R fan at all but I think he's good, so I thought why not, the missus is out, bought the ticket on the net, few stops on the tram.that's Prague for you

    Anyone know what stuff he's doing on this tour?

    Coke and a bit of blow
  • My first ever gig was GnR at Wembley in 1992. Coincidently it was the same day I descovered Stella Artios lager.
  • It's hard to say you have a best song, but Estranged on Use Your Illusion II is probably mine
  • I've seen Slash live twice in recent years with Myles Kennedy on vocals and he's been doing a great job but on his game Axl can still nail it

  • There's YouTube footage of Fergie from Black Eyed Peas performing Sweet Child Of Mine with Slash and she was pretty damn good! Hers is also my favourite song from the 'Slash' album.

    Seems I'm pretty lucky as its only a 5 city tour, and quite interesting location choices, after this he's off to Lodz in Poland and then Minsk. Good on him

    The touring lineup is Slash on guitar, Myles Kennedy on vocals, Todd Kerns on bass and vocals, Brent Fitz on drums and Frank Sidoris and guitar and vocals.


    About a third of the set list might be G&R stuff, it says, including Sweet Child of Mine

    Cheers for those vids @StewieGriffinSE7 , that's getting me in the mood

    The video for that is hilarious! It's the third of a trilogy of ridiculous OTT videos, each getting worse (Don't cry & November Rain being the others) and in it Axl swims with Dolphins! Each video must have cost millions.

    Yeah i've seen the video. I also liked it when ECW (wrestling) used November Rain for their November to Remember ppv.

    Ok. OKAY! I get it.:-)

    Well, this scruffy shed is great, there are no seats, and there are lots of portable beer trolleys scattered around, you just wander off and get a refill while he's changing guitars. I'll do my best to get tanked.


  • Truly envious slash is a legend

    I just put on welcome to the jungle, paradise city, don't cry, November rain and patience through the TV , but as a barter I have to now endure half hr of 1direction videos

    Wtf
  • I'm just waiting for Henry to come along and hijack this thread again.

    Youtube maybe. I used to have some ECW episodes on VHS. Also the time I was recording all the WWF ppvs late 90s/early 2000. I've got the 'over the edge' (I think that was what it was called) one when Owen dies :( still on tape. The show I wished I'd recorded was the RAW tribute of that week. All of them did so well. You could Jeff Jarrett and Deborah McMichael visibly upset in their promo after the Owen Hart incident. Terrible

    great band so many great tracks, including Right Next Door To Hell.

    GnFR at Wembley was my first gig too. Date was definitely 31st August, pretty sure it was 1991, support acts were Nine Inch Nails (really crap live although I love their stuff now) and someone else who I really can't remember. Use Your Illusion Tour. "Get in the Ring" was awesome live - how about singing that from the Covered End to Roland? ;-)
  • "Get In The Ring"

    Why do you look at me when you hate me
    Why should I look at you when you make me hate you to
    I sense a smell of retribution in the air
    I don't even understand why the fuck you even care
    And I don't need your jealousy yeah
    Why drag me down in your misery
    And when you stare don't you think I feel it
    But I'm gonna deal it back to you in spades
    When I'm havin' fun ya know I can't conceal it
    'Cause I know you'd never cut it in my game- Oh no

    the silicone injections
    Crystal meth and yeast infections

    Got your subtle manipulative devices
    Just like you I got my vices
    I got a thought that would be nice
    I'd like to crush your head tight in my vice- PAIN!!

    Good song. I also liked Breakdown, in particular this bit

    We all come in from the cold
    We come down from the wire
    An everybody warms themselves
    To a different fire
    When sometimes we get burned
    You'd think sometime, we'd learn
    The one you love is the one
    That should take you higher

    You ain't got no one
    You better go back out and find 'em

    Mardy arsed fucker, was this his response to Julie Burchills 6/10 album review in Sounds in 1987?
  • Truly brilliant band in their day. The absolute definition of what a modern day, dangerous rock band should be.

    Saw the new incarnation at the O2 a few years back and was actually pleasantly surprised. Played a three hour set (that went on until about 1am!) and Axl can still push his voice.
  • Going to have to check his latest album out, if for nothing else he is a great fan of one of my guitar heroes'
