Does it bother anybody?

[Tonrey]

That Axl is four years older then the oldest one in the band. Most members are still in there 30's while Axl is in his mid fourties. It just bothers me for some reason.

Hey, he  can still rock and roll so its fine with me.

You have to define the reason, please, cause I don't see it...

Who's the youngest and oldest (apart from Axl)?

[blueheart]

what s the problem with AXL's age? don t get it 

[godiva]

I thought Brain was the youngest, could be Robin though. I'm sure somebody else can tell you exactly. Doesn't bother me at all. I fail to see why it would be a negative thing. Maybe you can expand on it a little bit?

Dizzy is the oldest, and Chris is the youngest.

Actually, Brain is one of the older people in GN'R.

He's 42.

Nah it doesn't bother me at all. I mean i know rock and roll is about young, and i was a bit worried about this before the show when i went to see VR last year - like i'd last seen slash in 1993, and like would he be too old? But VR delivered pure rock and roll, even if they are older than some bands. And i think its the same of Axl - he can still bring that passion and that fire that he has, and his new songs are amazingly written, so like - who cares how old he is!

[blueheart]

Axl - 44
Dizzy - 43
Brain - 42
Tommy - 40
Richard - 40
Ron - 37
Robin - 35
Chris - 30


I still don t understand what bothers you

Get the fuck out of here  He looks like hes in his late 20s! My God, what an enlightening post - I always thought the band was fairly young except for Axl. Wow.

Man, these guys all look so much younger than they are! Fortus, 40! Thal, 37!

Except for Dizzy and Pittman (who looks like he aged about 20 years since 01).

  Got all of them wrong. Well, that should tell you how important I think it is. Tomorrows, I so agree with you on Tommy looking young. The guy doesn't look a day over 30, does he?

so apart from chris there is a 9 year age difference between oldest and youngest

so what who cares if they were all early twenties i could understand the problem

and with Chris he isnt a replacement he is a new part so to speak so his age is not important in my eyes

and yes i know we have an extra guitar player to the 90's before you pick up on that

I hear you on that. I never really cared about the age of the band members (even Axl) so I just assumed that the other dudes were all fairly young because they look it. 

Man, I hope I am a quater as cool as these guys when Im in my late 30s 

[slashisvr]

axl still performs at his best, running round like he's 24 again

I was thinking the same thing. I mean, Brain, 42?? No way!! He looks way younger than that
