As usual, Knockin on Heavens Door will be used to tribute the ones who've passed.

thanks a lot!!

Had lunch with a fellow Guns fan friend who isn't following all the hype. Told him about the hybrid model and we discussed the possibility of Slash working on Chinese leftovers.

His thoughts: "if that's the case, you can say Axl won the war. All he ever wanted was Slash to work on more cutting edge material. If Slash does rejoin the band, they keep playing CD songs plus Slash works on Axl's modern material written with other people, it's the scenario Axl wanted in 96. But everybody had it neglected for 20 years."

He is really pro Slash but he sounded bitter about him. A different point of view from what I've been seeing on forums. Like "if you're going to go Axl's way, why now and not 20 years ago?"

I found that amusing.

I've said it again and now that it's imminent I won't change my opinion.

A reunion makes me lose much of the respect I have for Axl. Especially now. It seems the worse (1998~CD RELEASE) has passed so it's even worse on my book to do it now.

Just a bunch of old men cashing in retirement plans.

I get all the excitement around it and I'll probably try to get to one concert, but just for the nostalgia act.
