Wish they'd get rid of the session players and just bring the other original guys back. Chinese democracy isn't a real gnr album, either, to me. One original me,berserk does not equal the band

Nope. Frank Ferrar and Richard Fortus have been in the band for 14 and 10 years. Slash and Duff have no problem playing Chinese Democracy songs. It is a guns n roses album.

Also the original lineup is Axl,Izzy,Tracii Guns Ole bech and Rob Gardner.
Steven can not ever do a full tour and he is a liability.
Also Dizzy Reed has been in the band since 1990.
Guns N roses decides who Guns N Roses is not the fans.
Slash and Duff left the band as a power play. Axl said himself that if he did make solo album it would not have been like Chinese.
I disagree man.
Those guys are good, but they were never in the same band that broke out on the scene. It's more like Axl's assembled band ya know? The amount of time someone spent playing with someone doesn't matter, it's what they've done. There's no way you can tell me guys like Richard, Frank, Melissa, Dizzy, etc are on the same level of importance as Slash and Duff... and Slash and Duff leaving isn't like a dig on their character, they did it cause they felt it was the right thing to do. It all worked out now, so it's all good.
I think Steven has showed he can do a tour with the shows he guested on, and if they paid Izzy it seems he would have done it too. Guns N Roses was always really those 5 dudes, and to a lesser extent, Matt. Those are the guys who made AfD through UYI which is what most people love.
As I said, they are back together now so it's all good. I caught them 3 times this tour and they were very good. Sounded as good as the shows I saw in the early 90s. Slash's playing is just off the chart right now.
Axl Rose is suing Irving Azoff.

What's like 5 million to Azoff? Like $2 to the rest of us common folk?
I know! The irony of it all.
