Re: Argument: Have Two Bands, Axl
I think you gentlemen just wrote the memo from GNREVO to Axl..
"Just do your fucking job and it should be alright".

Re: Argument: Have Two Bands, Axl
I just can't see anything like this in a million years for so many reasons.
I find it crazy that a guy like Canter, who has more first hand, intimate knowledge of Slash and Axl's thoughts on all this than anyone, could argue for a scenario where the old and new bands tour together: New Guns open for an hour, Old Guns play for an hour, everyone comes on and plays tambourine for Nightrain and Paradise.
So for the first hour a ton of people are gonna chant for Duff and Slash. Axl's gonna play songs including Sorry and Madagascar which are in part about Slash and Duff.
And Slash wont even agree to putting out a press release saying 'so it tuns out Axl didn't really hold us hostage over the name; it was the manager' so why the hell would he subject himself to an even greater insult?

Re: Argument: Have Two Bands, Axl
I think Axlin's way would be the master stroke for Axl.
Problem is that the imprint of 'Original GNR' on the world after (presumably) a great album and a great comeback tour would be so strong that the 'new guy band' would be back at the bottom of the cliff.
Axl should make friends, reunite, make an album, win the world on tour, make a hundred mill then...say goodbye to GNR.
Axl should then just be...Axl.
Play your own shit with your own band, sit at the piano all night drinking cocktails and smoking epic cigars while blowing out some big tunes with half of Nine Inch Nails and Elton John or whatever the fuck you want to do. Get real fat and happy, play to 2-5000 a night on top tier club tours with no need to worry about money.
