Title: How come nobody asks Axl why there is no GNR reunion. Post by: Carlos Gunner on February 03, 2023, 09:00:37 PM How come nobody ever asks Axl why he does not want a GNR reunion?
Or why a GNR reunion is not happening or possible? Title: Re: How come nobody asks Axl why there is no GNR reunion. Post by: Bridge on February 04, 2023, 03:40:49 AM What do you mean, "nobody"?
There are 8 billion people on this earth, and probably half of them have asked Axl that question. He's answered it different ways at different times over the years, and he was indubitably sick of that question 20 years ago. The lineup and partial reunion that we got (Axl/Slash/Duff, with brief Steven appearances) was what we got. That's all we're ever gonna get. So why do the other 4 billion people have to ask it too?

And if you are referring to Appetite Era Lineup its pretty simple the other 2 being Adler & Stradlin are not reliable for long term plus Axl is a loyal guy and you have had Richard playing in GNR since 02 and Frank since what 08? I think the only reason people will bring up Izzy is his song writing that he did with the band. Not sure I have really ever seen anybody say damn this band doesn't sound the same without Izzy. Its not a knock on his guitar playing skills but I think someone like Fortus is just as good if not better then when izzy was in the band.

So if you look it with that in mind, the main three (not meant to disrespect anyone's part in creating the band's legacy) did reunite. Also, for the other two to come back and expect to be full partners again, would be kinda weird(?).... If you start a company with your friends, then you quit and they keep going making it a huge success. Is it fair for you to just wanna come back and expect to be made a full partner just because you were there when it started? You were probably paid off when you left. You made a deal.... Maybe that kind of things do happen all the time. I really don't know. I'm just saying I can see why it might not just happen as easily as "hey guys, come back, let's play!". /jarmo Title: Re: How come nobody asks Axl why there is no GNR reunion.

I never read or saw an interview to Axl asking him directly why the GNR reunion is not happening, at least not since 2016. Title: Re: How come nobody asks Axl why there is no GNR reunion. Post by: Carlos Gunner on February 04, 2023, 06:28:03 PM I know the last version of GNR is loved by many fans and people around the world,... proven by filling stadiums...
but why making possible an original GNR reunion? Not even a single show? That is strange to me, considering the original lineup is part of the RNR hall of fame. It just means Axl has issues with Steven and Izzy still. Title: Re: How come nobody asks Axl why there is no GNR reunion.

You're talking about the band that performs on stage. They were partners in the business though. /jarmo Title: Re: How come nobody asks Axl why there is no GNR reunion.
