That's terrible news, hope he and his family are okay. Or as okay as anyone can be under the circumstances.

It'll be interesting to hear 2024 (or 2023?) Axl studio vocals, though.

Green Lung. British doom metal/stoner rock band whose pitch is "Black Sabbath if Brian May joined them," with lyrics that riff on folk horror, the occult and vintage horror films.
They have a song about the Blind Dead films, for heaven's sake.

Livenation are saying touring will resume next year, that's it
Pertaining to the other thread, GNR are resuming touring next year, confirmed recently in a Slash interview, and are slowly working on a new album.
This year is a year off
Good news is we’ve made it (almost) halfway through the year off!
How many Tuesdays left in the year?

I’m kinda surprised Axl isn’t on Slash’s new album seeing it’s just a bunch of covers
I think the pair of them are keenly aware that the specific combination of the two of them is effectively Brand GN'R, so their hands are tied – they have to limit collabs to a GN'R album in a way that, say, Slash and Duff don't.
#6 Re: Guns N' Roses » Axl Rose Official Website » 13 weeks ago
There are two sentences of text on the website and one of them has the sort of glaring grammatical error that makes you think it's a fake Chinese knock-off/AI-written site.
For heaven's sake, hire a proofreader Axl.

There's an Atlas leak?

Even during the Chinese years, we were never allowed to get away from it. There's even an old logo plastered in The General video.
This seems weirdly nitpicky. Most bands have one iconic logo that they're associated with; when they hit their legacy years they revive it if they went through variations over the years. Pretty much all Beatles releases use the "drop T" logo (which never actually showed up on their releases in the 60s, but was knocked up for Ringo's drum kit), pretty much all the Oasis releases use the one from Definitely Maybe etc.

Me too. Always felt Slash let his ego get in the way on that thing. Obviously Tobias was a decent player who could contribute both guitars and write songs for the band, and low key enough to not take any spotlight from Slash.
Apparently Slash had no issue trying out with Zack Wylde. That would definitely never have worked!
I thought that the Wylde/Slash thing was a bit of a disaster, wasn't it? Since the pair of them were at it like "A T-Rex and a giant anaconda."
Meanwhile, Slash now has no problem playing with Fortus, who takes more solo spots than any rhythm guitarist he's worked with before. He really was daft to blow up over Tobias, since Axl was pretty much proved right on that score; he was Chinese Democracy's Izzy, in the sense that he was arguably Axl's main co-writer for that album.

I’m with Age, it’s way more embarrassing not to create something new. However Ice, they have no shame. The first single from the reunion was a Hollywood Rose song!!!!!
Last I checked Duff and Slash weren’t in Hollywood Rose either!
I also find it amusing that 3/5 of the singles they have released since the reunion (Shadow/Hard Skool/Perhaps) were co-written by Tobias, considering Slash not wanting to work with him was the main catalyst for the band breaking up in the first place.
Hot take: I liked the "duelling solos" bit in Sympathy for the Devil.
