p lame moving the announcement of coachella to that random website (tho maybe that website they'll be able to hold pre-sales for tickets..??).
clearly axl's only intention was to sell coachella & avoid questions of slash's return/lineup changes.

unless they've something else cooking just not ready to announce yet..??
i doubt that tho. think this is just another example of the big guy pussying out/not showing up for his own reasons..

I suspect that's it. The response to that pic across the forums had to make him think twice – when Axl makes his first public appearance with GN'R, the message needs to be "GN'R are back and on fighting form," not "Fat Axl has crawled back to his old band for a payday." He needs to come out looking and sounding like he did in 2006. $8m buys a lot of vocal coaching, personal training and dieticians. Fucksake, if Mark Hamill can do it for Star Wars, Axl can do it for GN'R.

Very possible. Hopefully he can get into fighting shape over the next 4 months.

Interesting choice of words.

I'm the last one to defend axl, but maybe there's more to the story.

I don't know details. I've heard rumblings that Matt and Axl had an incident. Don't know what or when exactly, but it seems to be tied to the Kimmel thing. What I don't know either is if Matt was out and it created the incident or if Matt is out because of the incident, but either way I would assume Matt is out. Completely I would guess.

I'm already imagining a certain member of this board *cough* bigbri *cough* planning an attack on a certain ex-gnr drummer 16

Bull in a China shop Sorum strikes.

Good to hear all is Roses, it's like 1993 all over again. 

In all seriousness though, if there's 'incidents' already it doesn't bode well.

I wouldn't worry too much; Axl created a tight touring machine in the modern GN'R, and they have plenty of options for drummers. All they need to do is ensure that Slash, Axl and Duff are on stage and 90% of the audience will be happy. And Duff and Slash have a good head for business, they won't rock the boat (especially now that they've committed to the reunion with those social media posts).

Fair points and as you say I think Sorum is probably the most replaceable/expendable of the lot. If this is true I'm actually surprised Sorum is/was involved enough to be anywhere near having an 'incident' with Axl.
