Re: Duff McKagan Says Taking Stage With Guns N' Roses Was Meant To Happen
No offence but I'm not so sure about the bridge to slash theory.
To me this just means Duff is eazy going enough to be able to see Axl and not make trouble over the key issues.
Monkey your posts always work for me. so grounded in reality.
reunion rumors always fly so fast at any mention. I wonder what took so long to release the video. All i can hear are the "official" statements
Axl-"Never more than one Alumni" ,"One of us will die first" Its nice to play with Izzy as long as no one has to depend on him- Duff could play guitar on something MAYBE
Tommy-"I would step aside for a reunion" shows mutual respect with and between duff
Duff- "It does not mean a reunion will happen" mutual respect w tommy
Dj- "It will be a cold day in hell before Axl & Slash play together again"

Gilby- I knew from the start i was a hired gun
Steven- Name the time and place
Matt-I would understand a reunion, then goes on to mention steven for afd and himself for UYI
Slash- "I would have a conversation about it" "ALOT would have to change" on ax and duff- im glad they got to talk. going on stage supports being late
And the one i like the best...and my application to everyone involved.
BBF- not in reunion context but re slash vs BBF- The music world is big enuff to enjoy all of us
Re: Duff McKagan Says Taking Stage With Guns N' Roses Was Meant To Happen
Just a couple of thoughts to that above...
Any hired contract players, which is anyone since 1990, don't know shit about what GN'R is going to do next. Seeing how Axl is the only guy left, i'd trust his word first. DJ don't know shit about anything.
And with that said, Axl's opinions have changed so much over time that I don't even believe him, and he's the guy calling the shots.
Said before, say it again - if the price is right.

It's not about the price.
Axl turned down $150 million already. If it was about a sum of money, someone would pay the kind of sum it needed to be.
It's about self respect, anger, sadness, regret, pride, and every other fucking human emotion there is I'd guess.
There will ONLY be a reunion if the friendships heal and they want to do it for pure chemestry and fun alone.
If that will never happen then it will never hapen. But the money is not the key here.

"What's clear is that one of the two of us will die before a reunion and however sad, ugly or unfortunate anyone views it, it is how it is. Those decisions were made a long time ago and reiterated year after year by one man." - Axl, 2009
I agree wholeheartedly with Axl there.
That one man, btw, isn't Slash.
Re: Duff McKagan Says Taking Stage With Guns N' Roses Was Meant To Happen
yep...the Garden is bad ass there as well....89-90 was my favorite time...what if they would have made Lies a full album? Those 4 tracks plus Civil War, The Garden, Yesterdays...a few more and you really have a way cool follow up to AFD.

How about the original version of Bad Obsession with Izzy on vocals? Perfect fit. Weed out UYI a bit and he still has a killer single album.
Axl's Salt Of the earth performance with The Stones was my favorite period with Axl's voice.

This is the way You're Crazy should have been recorded.
