mustangonfire@yahoo.com: Does anyone think they may calm down in
the future and do a reunion gig??

iamsocool: its too bad those two cant work something
out where they both would stay in gnr. All of them lawsuits kinda poisoned
that chance, though

Slasher1085: You can't deny it, Slash is awesome whatever
band he's playing in, but not as awesome as he was in guns. grant it, axl
did good too but anyone could scream and sway on a microphone for half
the gnr songs.
Posted by
gnracdc: I think that the new "guns n roses" cannot
even compare anything that they have done before. It's not that I'm a diehard
axl fan or a diehard slash fan...i'm just a gnr fan. axl and slash are
both kick ass awesome together but guns will never be the same w/o slasher!
come on people, axl and slash were GNR. axl can't do it alone, i won't
even listen to the new stuff.
Posted by
Ian: Bottom line is AXL and Slash were "GNR".
Without them both in the band then it just ain't the same. Sure the other
members seemed like family to us huge GNR Fans but AXL and Slash were the
epitome of GNR. To myself and many other fans as of right now there is
no Guns N Roses. The band is dead even though AXL is trying to make it
work. He should have changed the name.
Posted by
metallica7: yeah but its a 2 way street... if it wasnt
for the rest of the "orginal" bandmates putting the words to music... Axl
would in a sense be just another dime a dozen vocalist
Posted by
iamsocool: the problem with gnr is either you love
em or ya dont. no in between As for me, i truely think Axl was the musical
genius of gnr. slash was god, but replaceable. hard to replace, but replaceable.
When people think of November Rain, thought doesnt usually come to the
3 some guitar solos in it. The Solos are nice, but what Axl did with the
other parts is fantastic And Axl was unique. No one will be able to put
that tap on his vocals like he can
Posted by
metallica7: heh heh yeah... or the artist formerly
known as Axl...

Now Thats Funny: This just in... Axl is changing his current
band name Guns And Roses, he now wishes to be refered to as Bums And Poses

Axl Godoy: I'm a Guns generation son, and I can say
that Guns n' roses won't be ever the old Guns n' roses 'cause slash and
Axl aren't together
Posted by
BunnyChaser02: Had to recomment after further reading.
The original Guns was Axl, Slash, and Izzy. When Izzy left, the band was
never the same so all this talk about Axl and Slash just misses a vital
point. Oh yeah Duff is pretty cool too.
Posted by
BUNNYCHASER02: Guns disintegration was a natural product
of ever dwindling musical interests and egotism. My money's on Axl coming
out with a really killer industrial/techno/rock record. I miss the old
Guns lineup, but it's gone. Dead. Looking forward to hear from Izzy again(hopefully)
Posted by
P.c: Slash's solos are great , he is one of
the best in it.I,m going crazy while his solos. But with all the respect
to him Axl is f*ckin better .Here almost everybody talking sh*t about Axl,
but he is much more talanted then Slash . Don,t forget ,he was the voice
of the gn'r, he wrote a music , he wrote all the words-- he is a genius
and his voice is something special ,he made gn's special, of course Slash
had a big part in GN's ,BUT AXL WAS AND IS THE FACE OF GUNSES , NO MATTER
WHAT EVERYBODY SAY. He always was in the center of gunses not because ne
was selfish , it was because is the most talantedThis new Slash's guy is
a small sucker, HE WILL NEVER BE LIKE AXL.

both rock.

gunner: guns n roses are my f&$in favorite
band with aerosmith, i thing the new guns n roses should bw axls roses
not guns n roses. i thing axl look very stupid without slash
Posted by
Musk: Neither band will ever be as big as the
Guns phenomenem.The individual musical talents and ideas that the family
had will never be reproduced by Slash or Axl whilst they play with other
musicians.Good luck to both with forth coming tours and to the forgotten
men of Guns whose music still gives millions of fans world wide the same
pleasure it did ten years ago!

FAT JESUS: GUNS N ROSES IS THE GREATEST ROCK BAND
OF MY TIME and it was all because of Axl, Axl is a f@cking god and his
new band is better musically then the old GNR but the only problem is its
not the old GNR and the chemistry isnt the same Wait till you here the
FAT JESUS AND THE DISCIPLES album rock will be back

JT: Guns N Roses are way better than any band
that could ever come out of the 90's. Slash is god to me.. Guns N Roses
should reunite for a reunion tour

stef hudson: slash new album is cool
Posted by
metallica7: first off dude, their 2 different bands.
Difference between the 2 is Axls relying on the old G-n-R fame to sell
records and singing the old classics in conert to keep the fans attention
where as Slash is playing under a new name and tunes and trying to move
forward and not relying on the past. Neither one wll beat G-n-R of old
for Slash was the sound and Axl was the vocals.

phil anselmo: I THINK ALL YOU F%$KS ARE STUPID FOR THINKING
THAT AXL SHOULDN'T BE SELF CENTERED OR HAVE A BIG EGO. THAT F@#KER WORKED
HARD TO GET WHERE HE IS.F@#K ALL YOU MOTHERF@#KERS WHO THINK AXL CAN'T
SING AND THAT ROD IS BETTER. CUZ THERE'D BE ROD W/O AXL.I THINK SLASH IS
GREAT FOR GOING OUT AND DOING HIS OWN THING. HE'S A BAD ASS! BUT SNAKE
PIT WILL NEVER BE ASS BIG AS GUNS WAS.HALF OF YOU STUPIDA$$ES OUT THERE
DONT KNOW SH!T ABOUT GNR AND YOU WANT TO TALK SH!T ABOUT HOW AXL SAT ON
HIS ASS FOR FIVE YEARS.YEAH SO WHERE THE F@#K'S YOUR GUYS' ALBUM?
Posted by
Shaun Avramov: I've seen Slash's Snakepit perform this
past Feb.. and I've seen Guns first performance on New Years in Vegas.
I felt pretty much neutral between the two, but after seeing the two performances,
it is more than obvious that Slash made the style and is the firehouse
with those amazing solos. It seemed like all the solos that the new guy
tried to pull off were decent, but again.. it's not SLASH... check him
out for yourself.. you'll see..

chris : you suck butt, dude. why can't any of
those stupid web sittes ever just show a #@&%$ movie?
Posted by
hotrod: I JUST HAVE A FEW THINGS TO SAY. IF SLASH
WAS GNR, THEN WHY THE HELL SNAKEPIT AIN'T NEAR WHAT GNR WAS? SLASH WAS
GREAT, BUT AXL WAS AND STILL IS THE GENIUS IN THE BAND. THE NAME IS STILL
GUNS N ROSES BECAUSE EVERYONE ELSE CHOSE TO LEAVE, INCLUDING SLASH.GNR
WAS JUST AS MUCH A PART OF SLASH'S LIFE AS IT WAS AXL'S, SO I JUST CAN'T
UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT AXL SINGING THE OLD TUNES, BUT YET
THEY APPLAUD SLASH FOR PLAYING THE TUNES. TRUTH IS IF THERE WERE TWO STAGES
WITH AXL ON ONE AND SLASH ON THE OTHER JUST PLAYING OLD GNR TUNES, EVERYONE
WOULD GO SEE AXL, ALTHOUGH SOME WOULD LIE TO THEMSELVES AND MAKE THEMSELVES
BELIEVE IT WOULD SOUND GREAT WITHOUT AXL'S UNIQUE VOICE. REMEMBER, IT DON'T
MATTER FOR WHAT REASON, SLASH AND DUFF LEFT GNR ON THEIR OWN TERMS. GO
BUY THEIR SOLO ALBUMS IF YOU WANT TO HEAR THEM, BUT I'LL STICK WITH THE
TRUE GENIUS BEHIND THE MUSIC.

DAN: I DONT THINK GNR WILL EVER BE AS GOOD

Jim Hernandez: Well I think we all know that gn´r,especially
axl really had some privat problems I and any other roses fan can´t
talk about. But I think we shouldn´t forget that gn´r were
best all together an´axl surely had a f*cking big influence to it.He
is just a great musician an´I think dawned sh!t money an´success
made him an a$$hole.Maybe...? gn´r was a band depending on each other
I think.Axl got a good style,radiation and m*therf*cking great vocals like

Axl Xtreme: What do u want? For Axl to write wimpy
soft songs so "he can be successful", get real u r analyzing the personal
problems Axl has had, rather than analyzing him as a musician. When the
sh*t throwin has settled he will always be a great singer/songwriter and
u can't take that away from him.

fame n money id b a prick too, hell. whats wrong with u people, does every
fukin artist have to b nice?? wuts up with that,,,

me: the only flaw I see with Slash is Snakepit
isn't as big as G&R yet! But he really can't help that can he? I got
to meet him after a show a few months back and he is one of the nicest
guys you will ever meet, unlike AXL who has a major ego and is a jerk.
Nice guys finish last? I hope not!
Posted by
Salli: I respect Slash as a guitarist... everything
he's done is great but before any of you rip on Axl and say he's too stuck
on himself look at the flaws that Slash has too!
Posted by
SMOKE DETECTOR: Anyone using so many words and so much
of their time and energy to elaborate on the cold hard facts that 1. SLASH
RULES! and 2. AXL SUCKS!, is really just blowing smoke.
Posted by
Ross: I agree with Ridah don't insult Rod by
compairing him to Ass-hole opps I mean Axl. You want to know what ruined
GNR it was Mr Ego Rose atlease Slash is staying true to his hard rock roots
while Axl is off trying to be Trent Reznor meets Fred Durst. The old GNR
was great but that is history now and I'll take Snakepit over the Axl Rose
band anyday!

metallica7: well at least "slash" had the decency
to use a different name unlike ass hole, i mean axl relying on the old
G&R fame to sell his new lineup of bullshyt among the people. And whats
with this buckethead dork? is he trying to get the same attention as slash
did with his trademark hat ?
Posted by
ponygrl: RidahNY, who pissed in your wheaties?
Have you even listened to "Ain't Life Grand?" Is Axl your Jesus Christ
or something? Why else would you think Slash & Rod being such a great
new combination is blasphemy? You know, Axl gets attention where ever he
goes because he is just so freakin weird. I'm not saying that he wasn't
great when the REAL GNR was together, but because he was Mr. Flamboyant,
he is now getting the attention after sitting on his butt for so long.
Slash has been here all the while, looking for the right fit, and now he's
found it. Does it hurt you so much on a personal level to hear people say
the music is good and he deserves accolades? Geez, you would think Slash
left you himself or something. Lighten up. You know he is great, and he's
got something good going on for himself now. Why can't you be happy for
him?
Posted by
RidahNY: It's Blasphemy to even compare this Rod
Johnson guy to Axl Rose. Jeez you people are so gullible. You obviously
believe everything you read including this bullcrap about Snakepit up above.
Nothing Snakepit has ever done or could ever dream of doing will ever compare
to what GNR did. You're not doing Slash any favors by talking about how
great Snakepit is plus you're only making yourself look stupid so if i
were you, i'd think twice before i went around telling everyone that Axl
stinks and Snakepit is great.

SLASH IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN AXL, WITH NO DOUBT! THEY HAVE TO COME TO SOUTH

Michelle: Rod is so good. He is the perfect singer
for Slash. After listening to Ain't Life Grand a few time I realised just
how good of a singer he is, he's got real range unlike all those rapmetalers
Axls been hanging out with. Love Live Snakepit! If I can't have the real
GNR I'll take this band any day-!

Logan: Ain't Life Grand comes in at #2 right
behind Appetite For Destruction in the Greatest Albumz Of ALL Time... Slash
and Rod make a way better combo than Slash N Axl... Rod is a better singer
by far!!!

Paula: Slash has his own heaven yes! He's great.
I agree playing guitar for slash it´s such an important thing like
breathing. And we´re so lucky!! god, we can listen to his music.
Well, one day slash will die...his music WON'T

Billy: The Ain't life Grand CD is the rock Cd

rocks...Long Live SLASH!

Nathan: This cd kicks some Ass. The songs are
not just hard rock mindless songs. Most of them have alot of changes in
them such as " the truth" ,"landslide",:serial killer".amazing rock album.
Go out and get it and se snakepit live..!!!

Buy the ALG-CD, go to a 'pit gig, and enjoy it!!!

Mr Brownstone: I love the way this article was writ'n
funny but honest about how fvckin great Slash is. It's five o'clock somewhere
tripped my trigger but Ain't Life Grande picks up with Use Your Illusion
I & II left off. Fvck Eminem this should be the record of the year!
Hair God? LOL that's some funny stuff.

RidahNY: GNR didn't owe those fans anything that
night. If Axl wanted to throw a fit and pull his whole band off stage then
let him. Metallica tried to sue their fans so they're no saints either.

LJ: I'm not a big fan, and never have been
of GNR. They had a few good songs, but after the sh*t Axl pulled on Metallica,
no respect from me. Slash IS a good guitarist though.

for the past 15 years and didn't know.

El Troubador: Slash is a class act. I read where he
meticulously keeps all of his solos and licks on tapes. I also want to
say that the article on Snakepit (this page) was very well written.

GREENMUSE: i never really cared for guns n roses,i
absolutly detest axle's voice,and his personality,he reminds me too much
of david lee roth,arrogant c0ck rockers the pair.but i have always admired
slash's work,a true master of guitar.i would give a few toes to have one
of those les pauls he uses.
Posted by
ponygrl: That's right - Rod isn't Axl. Axl sat
on his ass for five years while Slash kept going. I've seen both bands
and I agree, I didn't care much for his first CD as Snakepit, but this
band is the shyt! This IS the right combination for Slash and the music
is really good. As a G&R fan, this is what I've been waiting for. Glad
its finally here. Yo, G&R fans, check it out. It ain't Axl, but you
WILL like it.
Posted by
Mike: I saw Slash's Snakepit with AC/DC last
summer and thought they were great Rod is the perfect frontman. Then a
couple days later I saw a review of the same show in the paper and the
jerkoff writer was talking all kinds of trash about how Rod wasn't Axl,
no shyt he is not Axl and thank God this is Slash's band not Guns n roses
and I think in a lot of ways Snakepit is better.

Slash Fan: Slash would have to be one of the best
guitar players ever. He lets his guitar speak for him and all you can do
is listen to the work of this guitar god
