It would be cool if Bucket rejoined, but I think that would be a hell of an insult to BF to cut him.
Who says he's going anywhere? I personally think they need to leave Robin in the dust, keep Ron, and then bring back the other two, even though I like Frank.
#17602 Re: Guns N' Roses » Stinson bailed? NME rumor. » 946 weeks ago
Yeah, but do any of you think that's kind of stupid in some level?
If Tommy is out, IF being the keyword, that would mean the only people left from the Rio III gig in 2001, would be Axl, Dizzy & Chris. WOW, a vocalist and two keys guys.
That would be utterly pathetic that even the NEW BAND had been replaced by a NEW BAND.
Slash_McKagen, the reason so many people keep talking reunion is because the puzzle pieces fit SO WELL right now, for really the first time - EVER. VR is dead, new GN'R never was, CD still ain't out, Axl might be without a lead guitarist & bassist, VR is without a vocalist, the whole thing is a clusterfuck, and Irving Azoff, who is BIG time, is GNR's manager a man who's recent accomplishments have been reuniting The Eagles for a successful comeback, and getting David Lee Roth back in Van Halen.
*cough* where does that not SCREAM GN'R reunion?

I don't really agree. I think if it's a 'brilliant' move, it'll be by pure accident. They might be trying to release it, in the present tense, to make sure it can make some money.
But the comparison to the old band will happen no matter what. They'll find a way to make it work, such as "the old band would've never done that", even though only a year into their success they were lending songs to soundtracks for films like "The Dead Pool", "Decline Of Western Civilization II", and even to TV's "Miami Vice".
Imo, the old band was just as commercial.
#17605 Re: Guns N' Roses » The Album That Never Was » 946 weeks ago
I think by the time this is all said and done, some of your theories will become true.
I think a reunion is inevitable, Axl has let GN'R drift on for too long, and that it'll take a reunion to make GN'R relevant again.
So what might be a better idea is some sort of low-priced Christmas-priced box set containing three full CD albums, a 4th & 5th disc called "2000 Intentions" that feature unreleased demos, abandoned songs for a 'CD IV' and early finished versions of of the main three albums, and possibly a 6th disc called "Appetite For Reconstruction" which features the more techno-themed re-record of AFD that was recorded in 1999/2000 with the first incarnation of the new band.
Launch a reunion at the same time of the release, which will fuel sales even more.
Then just FORGET this nightmare that has been Chinese Democracy. Axl needs to LET GO of the past, start meeting the old guys in the middle, and vice versa, they need to understand him as an artist, and the old Guns N' Roses needs to work the follow up to Illusion II.

If Tommy is out, then Duff is in.
You do the math.
Azoff is working the wand...

Gagarin is right on the vocals.
That's been the biggest problem with the leaks, are the vocals. The instrumental sound fuckin' ace, and done, and have for the LONGEST time. Other than Axl going back and adding Ron & Frank to some stuff, i'm fairly convinced the instrumentals have been done since the turn of the decade.
It's the vocals that are inconsistent. You get something like I.R.S. and it sounds like 2006-07 throwback Axl, and then you hear something totally new like If The World or Song #2 that has 2001-02 helium Axl, and with Ron saying "before my time" basically, it makes sense that some of these leaks might be SEVERAL years old.

10-4, thanks for clearing that up.
#17609 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns N Roses on Universal Music Group Release List » 946 weeks ago
Forecast = Universal has the album
That's the significant news of this. Not that CD will definitely be released in Q4, which NO ONE knows. It may, or may not.

I'm penciling him in.
Rose/Azoff in '08!
