Yup.

If that Richard interview was real that was LAME.

ANd also, there's a lot at HTGTH that members are banned from talking about. That's not the way it was there during the 06 leaks... Well so much. Not as bad as it is now. So I wouldn't use that site as a way of surveing fan interest. And going with what was said before, I've noticed a lot of people have joined here since the news broke and are discussing it here.

Guys those were really huge IF's to those points. That's not even mentioning the possibility
that the next singer for VR will be something very, very special.  And it's another big if that the
guys even want a reunion. And a huge if that Axl would somehow spontaneously say, okay, I got
that out of my system, now back to that other unfinished GNR album... And then there is the
business of going about a reunion. Axl is not going to do a 360 degree change of who he is for
the benefit of the old days and for what the fans want.

I'll say anything is possible. But I'm looking at this logically and I'm not interjecting a possible
reunion scenerio into every topic. That gets old after a while. I think a lot of it is meant to try
and undermine the current GNR by some disgruntled old line up fans who don't want CD to be
a success, because failiure of CD, in their minds, will lead to a fantasy reunion.

A reunion is not that simple.

That guy wasn't a journalist, though. He was a guy from newgnr.com who got into E3. So he
should know better than to post that shit.

For TheMole:

FIRST

Why would they want a reunion? The guys involved are FILTHY RICH, so there are no money
needs here. Plus, you know, they still have their own things going on.

SECOND

After what Slash and Duff went through with Scott, with one of the main complaints being
that he was too much like Axl, what has Axl showed you in these last six years that he is
any different than he used to be? How would that be appealing to them?

THIRD

There would be no album. Period. The most you'd get from a reunion is maybe a few shows
or a set at the Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame. These guys have shown they cannot work together,
plus Axl is Axl in the recording studio. They would all want a say, and why would Axl want to
share that power when he has all the power now. Also because...

FORTH

Izzy would not tour with them. He wouldn't be able to put up with Axl on the road or recording.
And more importantly, with no Izzy, there would be NO REAL REUNION.

FIFTH

As I said before, if Axl had to abandon what he's done with this band it would be an admission
of failure, and he would spite himself and never sing again before he admitted he couldn't make
it with his band and his vision. Not to mention they are WORLDS apart musically. Axl has shown
he can maintain interest on his own with this band for the last 15 years. Slash and Duff have
shown they can be in a platinum selling band without him, making the music THEY want to make.

There is really no reason or incentive for them to get back together, for more than a nostalgia
show or two.
