Re: Big Surprise - We're almost all on the same side!
Its a nice change from how bad it got years ago.
I got too caught up in all of it. In the end, its the music we love. No reason to hate about it.
Re: Big Surprise - We're almost all on the same side!
Yeah the fan "war" was really bad. Not just Axl vs Slash either. So many different factions and people being in various factions. Very unhealthy for the fan base.
Its like you HAD to take a position. Its all very strange when you look back on it. Like....I love both Axl and Slash but when pushed into a corner to take a stand.....I'm in the Axl camp. Not a huge Finck fan but really like some of his work so I gotta defend him on that front from his haters.....and of course Bucket who had a hardcore base that had to club Ron fans as if they were baby seals. Tommy had a niche group as well which I would be in off and on.....then the Fortus nuts.....list goes on and on.
Now we get to hold hands and maybe get what both sides always wanted....a reunion AND new music.

The only camp that includes almost everybody.
I hope he noticed that if he ever cruised the forums.
But I'm in the diehard Izzy camp where everything that took place without him during UYI Tour was not GN'R and whatever the fuck they're doing right now is not GN'R without him either.

Yea that's the 1% club there.

And what's the Adler or Bust club? 0.1%? 
Re: Big Surprise - We're almost all on the same side!
I'm in that other 1% club. Whatever Axl puts his name to. Though I also recognize that the original GN'R died in 89. Adler brought important groove.
Doesn't mean I want to hear it again given the circumstances. In a lot of ways that image of the 80s band is best left untainted, can only be tarnished now.

Yes, even if you get them back together it will never be the same. Anyone hoping for the Appetite reunion actually needs a time machine more than the reunion of a bunch of 50+ year olds who are way past their prime.
