Guns N' Roses reunion - do you give a toss?

Unfortunately I haven't checked our slash's solo stuff. I guess because his velvet revolver stuff I found just ok

^ Some good points Vic, well said. 

What I find most amazing is two people here have said they like Chinese Democracy! I've never discovered a single fan since it first came out! Personally I like a couple of songs, but detest the rest.

Fuck no. Losers like Axl don't have anything else to add to the musical world so he dredges up the one success that he had and milks it to death. There is no way fucking hell he'll even come close to the classic sound as he sounds like an alley cat raped by twenty pitbulls. 

Broke the streak...I am mildly interested.  I was absolutely floored when I first saw Welcome to the Jungle on MTV's Headbanger's Ball one Saturday midnight in high school.  I went out and bought the vinyl and played it for all of my friends.  We were hooked pretty instantly on them.  It was probably a good 6 months or later before it broke into the mainstream and everyone was listening to them.  I saw them live once on a tour with Faith No More and Metallica.  It was a great show...except for the having to wait an extremely long time for them to finally come on stage...although it was pretty entertaining as the camera scanned the crown the women folk took it upon themselves to start flashing the crowd on the screen.  I quite liked that....anyhow, I am mildly interested to see what they might come up with again together.  Although, I did recently purchase and listen to the Van Halen live in Tokyo CD, and David Lee Roth sounds like the world's worst karaoke singer, so I guess my expectations are sort of low on what might come out of this. 

I'm indifferent. I like Appetite For Destruction a lot but like many consider it the only really worthwhile album they ever did. I shan't attend any such reunion shows. I might listen to a new album out of curiosities sake though.

Oh I understand the hype alright...GR was once the greatest rock´n´roll band on earth, and had legions of fans. I remember those days, and I remember how huge they were. Don´t underestimate the demand of a reunion of such a big name...

Quite an emphatic no for me. I'd be more interested in GnR minus Axl, with someone who could sing instead. And Slash shouldn't be going back to the Gunners. He's quite successful and well respected as a solo artist, and better off without Axl.

In slight, but unexpected defence of Axl, one of the Gunners' biographies (think it was probably Steven Adler's, cos Slash didn't have anything good to say about Axl at the time) said the reasons for the sometimes ridiculously long waits for the band to perform was because Axl was trying to get his voice right for the shows, with warm-ups and exercises and medications and crap, and didn't want to perform if he wasn't 100%. It wasn't all just an ego trip.

I can enjoy G'n'R's hits if I happen to hear them but they've never done much for me as a band. We have a best of release from them in the house and I think that's enough. So no, not remotely interested in any reunion and given Axl's rather infamous reputation now I'm actually surprised that Slash and Duff want to be associated with him again. I don't know much about Duff but Slash has had a good thing going with his solo band with Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators. Wouldn't call myself a major fan of that even (I have a live album that someone gave me) but I wouldn't like to see that project iced for G'n'R's sake.
