I have been a huge Axl fan since Sweet Child came out - my 15 year old Sheppard's name is Axl Rose, my log in on my computer is Axl Rose. I love his voice & his song writing. I wish we could get some new music released though.

According to what I have read (which is never absolute) W. Axl Rose owns the name to GNR so he legally has the right to call it GNR, regardless of who is in the band. AXL is GNR, not Slash, Duff, Matt, Buckethead, Brian, Robin, etc.

He's right. I think he aquired the rights during the Use Your Illussion tour. I heard he made the other band members agree to this or he'd split the band up.

What does one have to do to get an invatation to one of Axl's parties??? I don't care, I'll crash, I just don't know where to go. I'm 22 and want this man to c my GNR tattoo. I claimed i would never get anything permanent, but i did and it's huge. That's how serious the initial GNR era means to me. I was still sh**tin in dipers while they were building their name. Someone gotta give me an invite before he gets too old to c it !!!! Oh and for the fool above me, GNR wouldn't exist without the original members, especially Slash. As much as i want him, Axl would be a rose in a lifelong search for some guns!!! I make it a personal mission to reunite them. ; )~

Just because he owns the right to the name does not mean what he's doing is GNR ! If Slash & Duff tried to call what they are doing GNR I would say the same thing.It's not them.The energy is different.What he's doing is alot like what if Vinnie paul tried to recreate PANTERA and he's the only original member.As much as I loved PANTERA I couid not get behind that either.

even if he does have the right's to the name.He bullied the other member's out of it back when they were all to strung out on drugs to fight back.Take this and put it together with the fact that HE DID NOT DO EVERYTHING AS FAR AS THE WRITEING WAS CONCERNED !!!! HE IS HARDLY GNR ALL BY HIMSELF !!!!!!(rumor has it this is the real reason Bucket head left & Dave Navarro refused to join when Axl asked about 8yrs ago)

Hopefully you get my point.f*** AXL !!!!!!!!! Vince should of kicked his a$$ !!!!!

I've always been a big Slayer fan and was never really into GnR back in the day. Now they have been apart and GONE in my opinion, I miss em. It's always good to hear an old song on the radio. Axl and Slash had there OWN sound, that is what I miss. They are the core to me. Both are GnR. Separate they are impostors. Only Axl could be the frontman and Only Slash and Duff and the rest could be Guns and Roses!!!!!!!!!

Axl is a great front man, maybe in the top 3 of all time. Think about it. Yet he was a jerk, selfish, cry-baby, and had a Huge ego. Oh yeah, he suffered from Frontmanasidas. Anyways stop hatin and smoke one, kick back and pop in a GNR cd. Enjoy what GNR gives you through the speakers. THATS IT. Forget the walkin off stage bull, and pay respects..................
