Just once I'd like to hear about the lights go down, Welcome to the Jungle starts, Axl runs out and starts his intro scream to a burst of pyrotechnics onstage BOOM, turns to the crowd to as "you know where you are?", and suddenly notices every single seat on the 13,000 capacity arena is empty. Just a few random yellow jacket security guards having a smoke over by the main floor exit.

Who cares? It's not the complete band, the ones everyone agree constituted "the originals". How can anybody hope to recreate something that was a moment in time over 25 years ago without the same group of people. When you start replacing, even if it's only 1 member, it is really just a cover band so to speak. next thing you know, it's piped in vocals or, just as an example, bass. I doubt any of their fans can really believe themselves when they think it's old times again, better than it could ever be. Those silly GnR fans. Can you imagine thinking that way?
Are Bleater and Santa's Douche the same guy, or do they just get their talking points out of the same crackhouse?

Do they have to show some attention to each other as a prerequisite(sp) to being selected or is Axel getting soft on the old days..?

..sound is awfull but the video is something not seen in 18 years . Duff and Axel on stage together ...feel free to close this thread if there is something already along these lines or send this to a already existing thread about this subject...couldn't find anything to post this question in..?
Being severely late to every show is just total disrespect to the audience. The Stones used to do it I guess and it probably sucked, but I get the buildup. I understand it can create a rabid dog mentality in the audience which is cool. But really, these people paid money to see you. They are excited to see you perform. So you insult them practically every night? 2 hours seems to be the average wait. That would be close to the crappy curfew laws for concerts where I live. I would never waste my time with this nonsense. I can honestly say I probably wouldn't go even with free tickets. I would definitely show up 2 hours late if I went.
Someone mentioned dimebag and the fairness of life and I have to agree. You don't want to see anyone die, but damn, Axl checking out early wouldn't make many eyes shed a tear I'd imagine. He's just such an enormous asshole. And you know he'll get to grow old and evolve into an even bigger asshole. It would be a nightmare to work for him.
gnaw on it
GNR played Youngstown a couple weeks ago. i guess they went on about quarter to 11.
Tommy Stinson did an interview with the paper that week and was asked about going on late...he says "well, we get done late." if they'd start the first show on time they wouldn't get done late, but that's too easy.

Isn't that past Axl's bed time?
I wonder if this ashole will show up too the hall of fame induction ? Even though the hall is a fucking joke. It would be cool too see the original band play together. I'm suprised they are all alive after reading their books.
Yeah, but since the show starts about 8PM and lasts until around 11PM, Axl and band will probably just be hitting the stage an hour or two after the program has left the air. This means the band will be performing in front of the folks cleaning up the auditorium and gathering up the catering, long after the tv crew and the audience has gone home.

Same thing in Minneapolis. They played until 3 am. That's a looong night.
4 hours + of Axl Rose?
Fuck, that'd be a bit too much of an endurance test even if it were the Appetite GnR lineup, much less Axl & the GnR DuJour Band.
120 minutes should be more than enough to get the point across live.
Scramby eggs and bacon.
I can't picture AxHole doing a 4 hour show. He's not a workaholic like Springsteen, or someone who just plays endless jams because they love it, like the Dead. Actually, I don't even think Bruce does shows that long anymore. And the Dead actually took breaks between sets (usually when the 'shrooms wore off and they needed more)

I wouldn't want to sit through a 4 hour show by anyone never mind the Bill Bailey rapist tribute act, fucking stupid idea.
a-ha!
that's what my dad claimed he was known by in his hometown of Lafayette, IN. (they lived in the same neighborhood of all things.)
It is literally out in the middle of nowhere at times, despite the fact that there's a major engineering school in the same town.

Still waiting for a relevant Browns Team
The show in Indy was great. It definitely wasn't the original lineup but still a great solid rock show. I don't mind them going on late. Local shows don't start until 10 and the best band usually goes on at 12 or 1 anyway.
The original lineup of Guns N' Roses will appear at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's induction ceremony in Cleveland on April 14, says keyboardist Dizzy Reed, who we should point out is not an original member.
According to an interview in Billboard, the five original members of the band — singer Axl Rose, guitarists Slash and Izzy Stradlin, bassist Duff McKagen, and drummer Steven Adler — will show up.
Some of the other members who've joined the troubled group over the years — like Reed, guitarist Gilby Clarke, and drummer Matt Sorum — will most likely be there too.
But the big news here, according to Reed, is that the five guys who made the great Appetite for Destruction will be at Public Auditorium at the same time on April 14.
"I know that all the original band is going to be there," keyboardist Dizzy Reed, the longest-standing member of the current GNR and an inductee that night, tells Billboard.com. "I don't know exactly what's going to go down. It's one of those things I'm sure will all come together and be really cool. I'm just going to go in with a good attitude and a clear head and a grateful heart."
Of course, this doesn't mean they'll play or even show up onstage together. Rose has a history of chronic asshole-ism, and the original quintet hasn't played together in two decades.
Either way, it should make for an interesting night, to say the least. —Michael Gallucci

Writing In All Proper Case Takes Extra Time, Is Confusing To Read, And Is Completely Pointless.
That's an understatement. Can Rose even still sing...at all?
That's gotta be car crash tv at its best
fuck your fucking framing
Well... just the fact that the five of them will even be in the same room is probably enough to make Satan put on a sweater.
it won't be on live TV and they'll edit all the good shit out.
i knew i should have bought tickets to that show.
About twenty years ago I would have given a fuck. Now after twenty years for it to sink in that Axl Rose is one of the biggest douches on the planet? Not so much.
"Don't want 'em to get you goat, don't show 'em where it's hid." - David Lee Roth
Hmm... Very interesting. I put my money on Slash. I hope they play. Very cool. Except the singer.
Not to mention that this is the Rock and Roll Hall of "Fame" we are talking about here. Will they be on before or after fucking Donovan? The hall has about as much integrity as the Syrian government and are about as relevant as steam powered automobiles.
Not quite accurate, "ism" is defined as "indicating behaviour or a characteristic quality: ie, heroism". I think he just IS an asshole.
Brilliant !!
Oh come the fuck on my brothers. THINK!
You are talking as if Axl will actually show up. Just because he is scheduled to & bandmates think he will doesn't mean shit. Guy doesn't even show up when 60,000 pay him to. And if he does choose to, he does it 3 hours late.
Fuck Axl.
What REALLY took the fucking cake was when he was on "That Metal Show" and one of those jokers finally got the balls to make a somewhat veiled reference to this and Axl BLAMED IT ON FUCKING SLASH.
A sweater vest will suffice...Well... just the fact that the five of them will even be in the same room is probably enough to make Satan put on a sweater.
WOOOOOOOOOOO
I really love you baby, I love what you've got
Let's get together we can, Get hot
YEah well it will never top Van Halen's induction ceremony, err ah nevermind. Hope GnR can get it together even if for one night.
"Nothing gets a yak over a suspension bridge faster than 'Back in the Saddle Again' by Aerosmith" ~ DLR
Can't imagine that anything will come of this.
Slash has a solo record due out and seems to be enjoying working with a singer he can actually stomach.
Adler is - and always has been - a trainwreck. Who would want to risk working with him?
Izzy has pretty much given up on the big time and does his own thing (his solo records are worth checking out). He was the first to tire of the circus way before it all went down the toilet.
To suggest it all depends on whether Axl says yay or nay is a little too simple. Do any of these guys - Adler aside - need the money enough to handle the hassle. This would be the reunion to end all reunions, but can any of them be bothered?

Maybe they will do one or two songs but Slash would be crazy to get involved in a reunion.
