Yeah........since they all split up...only Axl is the only remaining member of the band....and it still goes by Guns-N-Roses.....Velvet Revolver is made up of most of the old Guns-N-Roses members that have since left the original band..and they're awesome. Axl Rose is too much of a butthole to deal with. I wouldn't spend any money going to see him in concert, nor will I even care to buy any of his recordings. He had it all, and his superiority complex caused him to blow it. He messed up a good thing, and it's no one's fault but his own. Don't waste your money going to a current Guns-N-Roses concert.....most probably Axl won't show anyway...........

The new version of Guns N Roses is amazing live. I went to the New York City concert last month and had the time of my life. Izzy Stradlin showed up to play with them and Sebastian Bach too. Axl was in great shape and sounded way better than in 2002. Most of these people saying anything haven't even seen the new band live. They're judging based on the new members who are awesome. Robin Fink is great and Richard Fortus plays a mean version of Rocket Queen. Go see them when they show up around you. You won't be dissappointed. Most of these people don't even realize that Slash was one of the main factors for the original GNR lineup splitting up. Axl didn't cause the splitup, he had his part, but it wasn't all his fault. Slash didn't want to play songs like November Rain or Sweet Child O' Mine or Patience. Read the interviews, he admits it himself.

now they are, guns n roses used to be the best band ever when all the original members were there, but now, its not even guns n roses anymore, its **** and roses. ****_you Robin Finck and Tommy Stinson no offence to them personally but they should find another band and axl should get the old band back if he wants to make good music.
now velvet revolver is way better cause at least slash is not a psycho
