Guns N roses:I'm glad they forgot,

[jedimistress]

We'll see when they play Download festival this year.

They were the best & biggest band in the world by far at the time, 88 to 93. However they had a complete n0b as a lead singer so did not fulfil their potential as one of the all time greats.

Mr Rose's head got so big & pompous that he completley blew it. He turned into rocks Elton John with his tantrums, stage prescence and over the top style.

they should have had another 10 years and 3 or 4 great albums at least before disbanding.

I cant imagine his new album Chinese Democracy is up to same standard. it should be coz its been about a dozen years in the making.

[kipchik]

Yeah my prob with them was that gob Axl Rose his voice used to grate on me,well they can only improve now he's gone!

[sheffwed39]

g&r were arguably the best rock band in the world. yes axle had his problems but aint we all. unfortunately they will never now be the same without the same line up.

[chrisuk013]

steven adler the original drummer was playing in liverpool a few weeks ago,Gee he has realy changed since his G'n'R days.

[Se7en]

He had a stroke due to drug abuse, which means he cant talk properly.

I personaly love that band an Axl is amazing lol

[funkymoped]

almost sad that they will only be remembered for the classic and brilliant "Sweet child o mine" maybe "November rain"

i know they did the buissnes in the album charts but it was Sweet child that made them.

[Mattk]

....and Paradise City surely ?

[Se7en]

Actually I hated their 1st single Sweet Child when it was 1st released. Jungle got me into them.

Best song they did was Coma, and slash agrees that that was their best.

[funkymoped]

and paradise city, obviously !

[rosieo]

I saw Guns n Roses in Milton Keynes in 1993. They were fantastic. If they come back half as good as they used to be, I will without doubt go to see them again.x

[Se7en]

They only have Axl Rose from original lineup.They also have a guitarist who wears a KFC bucket on his head and mask (to hide his embarrassment presumably).

The new GnR offshoot band Velvet Revolver seem to have a good sound with Slash, Duff and the Drummer who replaced Steve Addler.

I cant imagine for one second that the Axl Rose GnR will be anywhere near the band of late 80s / early 90s.

[Se7en]

Actually Buckethead has now left the band . Looks like Axls up to his usual then...

[Zorr0]

GnR used to rock. Axl looks ancient now so I think it will be like watching the Stones.

[SAULGENESISF]

A lot of people here seem to think that GNR have split up. Well, they haven't, they never disbanded, and Duff didn't leave until about 1997 anyway so that's another 4 years on after 1993.

Besides which, the only two classic members of the band that were in GNR at the beginning were W. Axl Rose, and Izzy Stradlin. Slash, Duff, and Steven Adler replaced the other original members but a lot of people don't seem to know that.

And to those that think Buckethead's just some random guitarist that's never done anything...well, he's had over 20 solo albums, and was taught by Mr Big's guitarist in the 80's.

I think the new GNR stuff will be brill, judging by what i've heard already (through fansites and youtube) it's amazing.
