Tom-Ass

Hopefully Pittman.. Like tomorrow

Well, boo hoo...

It's gonna be Axl, Slash and Duff on the same stage first time since 1993. If you're not satisfied with that, stay home. Simple as that. This re-grouping is a dream come true, from a fan's point of view. In my opinion anyway. I mean, who would have thought it would ever happen? And yet, people are still bitching? I don't care about that kind of negativity.

Of course everybody are entitled to their opinions, but... I don't know. It's easy to bitch about things on the internet. People should be more positive.

That is the point.. A lot of people are staying home and it isn't a dream come true for most people.. This thing could have been huge..I am a fan.. I have been waiting for 23 years to see Guns N' Roses again.. This isn't it.. This still resembles NuGnR more than anything esle... It will also sound more like NuGnR than than anything else..

I don't think has to be the original 5 or bust but to have the original members outnumbered onstage just doesn't work.. Chris Pittman.. Just doesn't work... And unless Frank sucks it up and plays the songs like they should be played.. He doesn't work..

It will sound nothing like NUGNR.

As far as Izzy is concerned he most likely has no desire to do a full scale tour but he will be on stage from time to time when he feels like it.

Steven I just don't think we will see him very much if at all. I could be wrong.

What most fans will care about is Axl, Slash and Duff to a lesser exstint on the same stage together under the GNR name. Slash and Axl are GNR to alot of people.

How will it sound nothing like NuGnR??

You still have Axl's current voice and appearance

Too many musicians

Pittman fucking up perfect songs with Synths

Frank who fucks up the essence of the songs

What people say in a comment section and do in real life can be very different. Case in point this forum.

That hasn't been my experience.. I hang out with a lot of music fans..

Maybe Axl/Slash/Duff should change their mind and cancel the whole reunion thing. Maybe then everybody would be happy and satisfied.

Or do it right...

Watch as the tickets sell out in 0.5 seconds regardless of a vocal minority.

To scalpers who will have a hard time getting rid of the tickets.. I will go to one show but am not dropping a lot of money..

If this is Axl/Slash/Duff/Fortus/Frank/Dizzy/Pittman and a 3rd guitarist I won't go to more than one show... The hype will die out fast..

I respectfully disagree. Pittman is better than that bloated UYI band from 1992. At least Pittman adds cool layers to songs. Estranged sounds great with the backing synths!

Makes me want to throw up... A song like Rocket Queen sure doesn't sound good with it..

I don't see any positives of this guy staying. I know a lot of people think he is a douche but I really know nothing about him so that has nothing to do with me thinking he should go.

I think he ruins the songs musically.. Example is Rocket Queen. Watch the 02 Arena show.. The end part is ruined by him drowning out classic guitar riffs with annoying Synths.. It is sinful really..

The more bodies onstage the less this seems like Gn'R... You are going to have 3 originals and 7 possibly 8 others? This thing could still be good with just Axl, Slash and Duff but you really need to cut off some of the fat. This isn't Slipknot...

He also looks like a clown on the stage with his tilting keyboards... So f'n goofy looking...

I've come to the conclusion this is a 100% cash grab... For many years Slash and Duff said if they were going to do a reunion that they would do it right.. This is a joke..

Who cares what a bunch of mulletheads on a dad rock site think?

This is from facebook and they are people of all ages and genders....

Well, boo hoo...

For all the people that say no one outside this board cares who is in the band aside from Axl and Slash.. Here are all the comments from the Ultimate Classic Rock article on who the rest of the band is. Copied from facebook and I didn't cherry pick replies.

Ditch him for reals he means nothing and I hate his background vocals they're atrocious

I hope he will shut up during Rocket Queen because he totally ruins the song, in fact he should shut up during every songs. I'm sorry but he looks like a useless drunk on stage. No need for him.

THIS!!!

It isn't the fact that he is useless which he is... More so is the fact that he ruins songs.. Rocket Queen is a PERFECT example. He destroys the end part by drowning out classic guitar riffs with those awful synths.. It is cringe worthy.. It is just one more extra body onstage making it seem less authentic.. Is there going to be 3 originals and 5 others? That doesn't seem like Guns N' Roses with that kind of ratio.

I didn't watch that video in the first post.. I know nothing about him as a person and it doesn't matter. He is a serious negative on this whole thing..

This will not be the same as GNR of lately. Why? Because SLASH

Slash will be great

You are still going to have too many people onstage

Axl's current vocals

Frank changing the feel of songs

Pittman drowning out guitar classic guitar parts with synths

wont be the same as NuGnR but pretty damn close

I tried a couple of years ago (wow it's been a while, huh?) to swap MK's vocals for Axl because I was dying to hear it, but couldn't do it... hard to believe we'll be hearing this in just a few months.

Musically it isn't going to sound anything like this

Are they enough the last we heard? No

It's at least 2010 or bust.

It's kinda funny. I've said my while life. If GnR get back together, I just need a date and I'd be there. The reason I didn't and won't buy tickets for coachella is Axl, and the uncertainty of his shape, vocal ability.

I hope they come out and absolutely kill it, though.

If he sounds the way he did in 2014, it's going to suck so bad

So true... Add Pittman the reasons for me..

I cannot understand why people are still talking bollocks and insulting the 'reunion'. We know nuGuns guys will be involved, simply to make sure the tour happens solidly. Not a single one of us know anything about Steve or Izzy, and imo their complete silence shows they will be involved. Can you lot not just shut the fuck up with all the complaints till we get an official announcement on the tour and Izzy/Steve's roles. Thank you.

We already know Frank and Pittman are involved... That is enough to ruin it whether Steven or Izzy play two songs or not...

We have had all possible permutations of band members except the one we want which is an one that includes all those members. Every one lacks a key element, a key person.

Or in this case has too many elements... Pittman and possibly 3 guitarists.. Fucking lame..

Nothing more cringey than 50 year old men adding techno synths to guitar music written 30 years ago.

It really is pretty awful..... If there are so many Guns fans that feel this way.. How do you think Duff and Slash truly feel about it?

Ive been a hardcore GNR fan and seeing Axl and Slash on the same stage would be a dream come true, but for these 3, I wont pay more than 150 to 200 euros, IF it was the full AFD or UYI line up, then i would have paid up to 400 euros.

It could still be awesome with just these three if they did it right but they aren't... Step one.. Step the fuck down Pittman.

I got nothing against Frank, but I want to hear original drumming, not his improvisations.

Agree 100% with that.

Exactly!!!! I could care less who is behind the kit as long as they play the songs the way they were written.. Franks improvisations are terrible.. Well I can't say that I don't care.. I would love to see Steven back there more than anyone.. Matt I could care less about..

This isn't nearly as exciting as it should have been.. I'm not going to dish out as money or see as many shows as I would have.. Seeing Slash's band ove rthe years for 40 bucks will be much more of a Gn'R experience than this will be...

Well I hope its played like Guns N' Roses and not NuGNR. I really don't want the guitar solo duties to be divided. When the legend Slash himself is there, then no one else should play his stuff.

I hope we get the old version of KOHD and a full version of Don't Cry.

When it comes to the GNR sound, Slash and his solo band are awesome in that, they are really talented.

So I hope this sounds like GNR and not nugnr.

It is going to sound more like NuGnR.... Pittman drowning out classic guitar parts... Frank being all cute with the rythymns.. And Axl sounding like he does..

This is very true.. I would take this lineup over what it looks like the reunion one is going to be any day.. Frank and Pittman need to go... Pittman most of all....

His vocals would have been acceptable if there was more raw energy from the band or if it was closer to the Guns Of Old.. It looks like it will be more like NuGnR than anything and will suck just as bad as it has for a long time.

Pittman lol

I don't get why Pitman is there except to stroke his own ego.

And drown out classic guitar parts with Synths..

Cant Blame Steven for that one. He just wants to relive the good ole days. He probably doesnt even care that there are other GNR albums beside Appetite

And Lies... And some of Illusions.. I actually personally showed him some songs on Live Era once for the first time that he didn't even know he was on..

From the time I saw NuGnR in 2002 until now... This "reunion" doesn't look much different than NuGnR either..
