This would actually make sense. A limited reunion to get more control of the name, then presumably continue on with CD.
That would be amazingly lame.

I'm truly sorry for the loss of your brother.
I got sober on Sept 10th 1997, and asked my old best friend (and co-junkie since childhood) to come with me. We had been getting drunk and high together for a decade.
He was unwilling or unable to do so.
I wrote him a 10 page letter a few years after that, outlining a successful sobriety program, told him life could be better, and begged him to try. He didn't and died a few years after that at age 37 in 2008. He had a cardiac arrest.
I'll never forget that. Mostly because we went down the same path and I was able (by a miracle) to get clean. His story was mine if I had not.
I'm middle aged now, and our friendship is just a memory. His daughter has grown up and now has a baby of her own. It's all very odd, even after all these years.
My condolences.

A hybrid band would essentially be more of the same IMO. Get the old band back together or just call it quits.

Having said all that, I understand fans like Cramer's current stance on this CD era. Axl jumped the shark and many have lost interest in it completely. Someone like Cramer flew across the country in 01 to check it out but like me, probably wouldn't go down the block to see it now. .
Absolutely correct.

CD 2? Please. I could care less.
#2036 Re: The Garden » Donald Trump running for President » 581 weeks ago
I missed it. I'll have to watch a replay. They need to narrow this thing down pretty quick. Having like 15 people in a debate is bat shit crazy.
They could easily cut half the line up already. Most are polling in single digits anyway and need to be eliminated.
#2037 Re: Guns N' Roses » Tommy is out(?) » 581 weeks ago
Well, I guess we have to agree that we disagree in how we interpret his words.
Yes, I have a firm grasp on the most basic understanding of the English language, and you clearly do not. I'm also under zero obligation to accommodate your peculiar emotional issues, which apparently manifests itself via frivolous arguments over trivial non-sense with strangers online. Perhaps that's how you work out the kinks of your distressed little ego, but I'm not here to be your therapist...sorry.
Tommy, a few weeks ago, wrote:“I didn’t quit the gig or walk away from it.” -src
But please, carry on.
Tommy a few weeks ago...again totally irrelevant in regards to what he most recently said. Seriously, get a life.

Carly Fiorina dominated tonight.
Cruz is such a slimy fuck face. I can't stand that guy.
#2039 Re: Guns N' Roses » Tommy is out(?) » 582 weeks ago
A band which is currently doing squat.
Also irrelevant to the news.
If you want to gloat over it, fine. That's your prerogative. Just saying, you should go the whole nine yards and say everyone (excusing perhaps Ax & Pitman) is out of the band.
No gloating (odd word choice though), just don't understand why you are splitting hairs as a means to deny/pivot/speculate what this man said. It's plain English, right out of his mouth.
GnR forum peeps do this all the time. Somebody can say the sky is blue, and the next reply will insist on examining what wasn't said about the sky color, what may become of the sky color, and what was really meant by the word "blue." It's what happens when we have a band with such poor communication, however in this case, it's rather cut n' dry.
#2040 Re: Guns N' Roses » Tommy is out(?) » 582 weeks ago
The dude says he is out of the band. So in that sense, he's currently out of the band. The rest is pure speculation on what may happen later, which frankly, is irrelevant. According to Tommy, he is out of the band. The end.
Also not sure why a moderator would put a question mark after my thread title? Is this kind of like an Obama birth certificate thing? No amount of evidence is enough?
