Well, they've been on MTV. I know plenty of people in my school who like gnr. I am 15 myself.
P.S. Get some grammar lessons.
Edit: I was nearly asleep when I wrote the original post.

I think it will be hard for GN'R to be accepted by the younger generation at first.I think it will take atleast 2-3 months for the young people of today to get used to them,I think GN'R will need the help of MTV and other public outlets.
In todays hip hop and bubble gum pop ruled industry it will be verry hard for GN'R to be accepted,it may be harder for them to be accepted than it was back in the 80's and eartly 90's .

He has all those punk-wannabees and all the other kind of poseurs attention when Chinese Democracy comes out. All the poseurs will just buy it to be cool. A guy in my school(im in high school) dressed up as Slash for Halloween. I'm sure once GNR is cool again, theyll be accepted but the meaning to the songs will blow right over their pathetic heads. For all the "ghetto" kids, gnr would need to be seen as buddies with some hot shot rapper to be accepted.

If the band ever returns, I wouldn't worry about the younger generation. It's longtime fans of the original lineup that are going to have a hard time accepting them.

We have a lot of "young" posters, here. I don't think it's going to be a problem when that time comes.
And sure, some fans of yesterday will have a hard time, but they'll get over it. Most of us "older" fans here at the board have moved on. Admittedly, some still have problems with it, but they still come and post. That's a good sign in my book.

Duet with Eminem?
Probably not, that would maybe alienate his rock audience. Looks like the ghetto kids are a lost cause. Maybe he can get some of them if he has stuff that is in your face and rocks hard.

'grammer' was a joke, right? An attempt at irony?

If the band gets enough promotion, then there won't be any problems.

Personately I'm quite pessimistic: here is what I've found on a music message board, that's not very optimistic:
"It doesn't matter how good Chinese Democracy is because it won't change the fact that this NuGnR is not Guns N Roses. It also doesn't change the fact that Axl ruined one of the greatest bands of all time.
I'm so sick of these Axl nutswingers who act like Buckethead is some sort of God. You wouldn't give 2 shits about him if he wasn't playing for Axl. If Buckethead left tomorrow you'd all forget about him and be kissing the person's ass who would replace him.
Buckethead may be able to play guitar, but that doesn't mean shit. Just because he can play doesn't mean he is anything special. The guy can't play with the emotion & feeling that is present with most of the greats. The guy can't write a timeless riff like Slash did with SCOM. He can't write a riff that would take a good song and turn it into an amazing song like Slash did with Estranged. Buckethead also sure as hell won't be an influence to generations of guitarists."
I don't know how they will be received by the large audiance...but everywhere on the internet, 99% of people say Axl sucks, that he destroyed the band and that all this thing is a joke.

first off, the internet represents such a small percentage of the actual listening public, that any internet related opinions, no matter how many there are, cannot be used to indicate any outcome having to do with GNR or anything at all.

Right on Nick. But you do realize your statement applies to Axl lovers as well as Axl opposers, don't you?

absolutely. the internet population is a majorly tainted sample of the whole, and that goes for both sides.
