didn`t they rehearse with their full production in atlanta in some airspace hangar or something once? maybe i`m wrong on that one though...

looking ready to kick some ass if you ask me. don`t forget he`s 54 years old.

you can debate it all you want. Adding Izzy makes no sense from a business point of view. he might make a slight difference in the US, but i highly doubt he`d draw another couple of hundred people to a gnr stadium show even there. in South America/Europe/Japan it`ll make no difference... and don`t get me wrong. I´m a fan of Izzy and i`d love to see him with Slash, Duff and Axl on stage and especially in the studio. I don`t think this is all about the money, but in one of his rare interviews axl said that he doesn`t believe that even a reunion with Slash would lead to substantially bigger audiences in most markets (he was obviouslyy wrong about that, although he added that it wouldn`t be enough to make him deal with slash again). now they´re getting 3 million $ per show. allegedly 50% for axl, 25% for slash and duff each. adding izzy would mean they had to split the existing cake. i guess there`s no way the would be getting more than that in total...

By the Sword would also be amazing. Something about that track always felt like GNR to me.
my favourite Slash song. easily on par with his gnr work imo. and one of his best solos.

Search for Guns N`Roses pictures on google. The answer to this ridiculous discussion is right there...
#47 Re: Guns N' Roses » Nightrain Official Site » 498 weeks ago
yeah... and it is as obvious, that he has absolutely nothing to do with the business side of gnr. never had, never will.

And unlikely to be an act that could show them up
AIC isn't a huge draw anymore. Not without Layne. They've actually played as an opener before. I'm surprised they haven't opened for GNR before.
they opened for gnr in Nijmegen Netherlands in 2006.

TheMole wrote:I've said it before, and I'll say it again: IFOCS is (to me) by leaps and bounds the best post-GNR album of any of the members (yes, that includes the Izzy stuff as well as CD). It's an album that had a couple of excellent singles, fan-servicing deep cuts and above-average fillers. It was a great reflection of where rock music was at the time without loosing sight of that rawness that was so unique to GNR. A dark-but-not-bleak album that sits right on the edge of grunge and post-grunge, with a healthy dose of hard rock infused in every riff and solo. I always say it's what AIC would've sounded like if they would've been from Louisiana.
Eric Dover is to my ears the best singer Slash has worked with post-Axl, and Beggars would've easily charted on-par with (or better than) GNR's non-ballad early 90's singles if it would've been released as a GNR song.
Snakepit I is definitely a great album. Half killer/half filler to me but when listening to the best tracks you can see why Axl wanted him to bring those songs back to GNR.
When hearing Snakepit for the first time and Beggars intro kicked in I thought, "My god... why isn't this a GNR song?"
My soundtrack spring/summer of 95 was Snakepit, Elastica, and Mad Season.
I always say it's what AIC would've sounded like if they would've been from Louisiana.
I assume you thought this when listening to Lower?
Axlin..I never heard that Cult record. I'll have to give it a spin.
In fact, I guess I'll check out these last few Slash albums while we're waiting for this reunion to kick into overdrive.
I`ve been listening to Slash`s first solo record and some songs of the follow ups for the last couple of weeks.
I don`t know if you`re into Wolfmother, but this is one of my favorites. Easily on par with anything he did in Guns imo, especially the Solo.
edit: seems to be the same guitar he posted a couple of days ago.

Well, if he had made his mind up before then it begs the question, why bother going ahead with the residency & the dvd? (The dvd was recorded during that residency, right? Or was there an earlier one the year before??).
The dvd was recorded during the Vegas residency in 2012.
Looking back on that last (full) show I saw, I do gotta say they put on a fun show in fairness to them, & I always enjoyed seeing BBF.. But.. I'm glad they're gone!
exactely my opinion on that. they put on a kickass show every time i`ve seen them, but Slash being on stage with Axl again will completely erase the 2001-2014 live era.
