If this has already been posted I am sorry. I did a quick search and didn't see it anywhere. I am super stoked about this as I think they were one of the best groups ever. I hope all the internet rumors are true. I hope they can put their differences aside and start making some awesome music again.

I can't imagine they would make any new music, nor would anyone want to hear it. Play the hits, boys.

I don't think Adler and axl can coexist. When gnr we inducted into the HOF part of the reason axl wouldn't show was because he felt Adler was promoting himself and not gnr. Axl also believed that in a past life him and former girlfriend Erin everly were Indians and she killed their children so he had to punish her for doing so. Axl is that thin line of genius and insanity.

Sweet, maybe they will play a few Meat Loaf covers.

Is there anything less "Rock 'n' Roll" than not knowing when to stop playing?

I cringe when I watch Mick Jagger, leader of the greatest band of all-time, still smirking and pouting for the camera. I don't want to see Axl do the snake dance in 2016.

I'd gladly pay to see Atleast duff, slash, and axl back together. Estranged is probably my favorite song and would be great to see live. one thing gnr did so great was taking other songs and making them their own.

But Jagger can still pull off the elusion of rock-n-roll forever, somehow.

This guy can't!

Watching Axl do that swishy snake dance made me cringe 25 years ago! Weirdest RnR signature move since Mick put his hands on his hips, pushed his elbows back behind himself, and impersonated a chicken.

I'll definitely see if they come near Charlotte. Saw them recently in 2006 and 2011, well kind of just Axl and his band of misfits. Put on pretty good shows. In 2006 they played in Greensboro and I dragged my wife,we had general admission standing only tix so I we got there when the doors opens and pushed our way to front row. I think doors opened at like 6, Papa Roach opened, the Sabastian Bach came on, he probably ended around 9-9:30. Axl did not come out until close to midnight. Being a Guns fan from the start I knew about his tendency to keep fans waiting but I figured those days were behind him at this point. My wife still hates Axl to this day even though I told her she got the true Axl experience. In 2011 the show was on Halloween night in Greenville, I went with some buddies and being Halloween most people were in costume. I could not even count the amount of Slash costumes, including one of my friends, but when going into the arena the security was telling everyone that top hats were not allowed per the band. Any other hats were fine but not the Slash top hat, they were confiscating or you could go back and put in your car. At least the show started on time for that one.

No. No it does not.

"Guns N Roses". Axl, Slash, and Duff sounds cool but just doesn't feel right. How many gigs before Axl stops the show and threatens to leave because he thought he saw someone from the crowd throw something? I'll say 10.

I think they need Izzy to be involved, he is really the only one that maintained a good relationship with everybody the last twenty years. Duff too to some extent but they need a calming presence on this tour or it could derail in a hurry.

Axl stole that from Davey Jones of the Monkees. It sucked in the 60's too.

Love GNR (I even dug Chinese Democracy). Don't care if W. Axl Rose is fat. Need Izzy, screw Adler.

Damn, Axl put on some pounds. Nothing doing gigs and drugs can't solve.

To be fair, those photos were from 2010, and they make him look huge. He's lost weight since, but even at the concert when those photos were taken, didn't look THAT big
Is Axl Fat?

He sure isn't pretty, but this is him a year later in 2011:
