Title: what bands have you gotten to like thanks to gn'r? Post by: CheapJon on August 28, 2006, 01:30:06 PM yeah what bands have gn'r gotten you too listen on if you don't get what i mean i can start with an example if it would not have been for gn'r i would prolly not listen to bullet for my valentine and avenged sevenfold but after they played with gn'r this summer i started to listen to them and must say that they are quite good : ok: another band was called crashdiet, a swedish band but they split up after the frontman commited suicide, dave lepard was his name, only like 25 years old.. he was a huge fan of axl and got the name of the band from the song so i thought they might be good.. and yeah they were okey? :yes: then whitout guns n roses i prolly would not listen to velvet revolver for obvius reasons theres prolly more band but at the moment these are the bands that i can come up with.. so what bands have you gotten to like thanks to gn'r?

Title: Re: what bands have you gotten to like thanks to gn'r? Post by: journey on August 28, 2006, 02:55:41 PM After I heard TSI, I really fell in love with Nazareth. I wasn't familiar with them before.
Also ELO. They were mentioned in a GNR article a while back. Telephone Line is off the hook. And Thin Lizzy. There's probably more, I'll think later. Title: Re: what bands have you gotten to like thanks to gn'r? Post by: kaasupoltin on August 28, 2006, 03:02:08 PM - Blind Melon

and well GNR was the first older rock band i started to like and so that led to me liking classic rock and just rock in general! Title: Re: what bands have you gotten to like thanks to gn'r? Post by: Kujo on August 29, 2006, 07:03:57 AM Fear
The Damned Actually even though I was always aware of him and his work, I wasn't a fan of Elton John until I saw him perform with Axl and heard Axls' "The One" intro for Sweet Child O Mine. That man has to be the king of the pop ballad. Title: Re: what bands have you gotten to like thanks to gn'r? Post by: -Jack- on August 29, 2006, 07:05:35 AM The Damned
Buckethead Bumblefoot The Replacements Velvet Revolver The New York Dolls Primus ...and probably some more : ok: Title: Re: what bands have you gotten to like thanks to gn'r? Post by: blueheart on August 29, 2006, 07:08:50 AM Gilby Clarke and Bumblefoot's solo projects
Title: Re: what bands have you gotten to like thanks to gn'r? Post by: babydolls on August 29, 2006, 07:41:25 AM quite a bit. i was 12 when i first got into GnR and they were the first proper band that I was really into (after an early diet of pop!) - so was interested in what their influences were to achieve their sound, consequently got into Aerosmith, Stones and AcDc and Motorhead
