Whatever.

Axl has been committing career suicide for years. I'm sorry.but he just doesn't have the amount of material to justify all of these delays that you grant an artist who has a proven history of turning out quality material.

If KISS was dimissed by large factions of people simply for not having Peter Criss and Ace Frehley as being invalid (never mind that both of them were no longer what they were known for as contributing to the band long before the Reunion ever happened)....neither should Guns and Roses be given the sort of attention it has when there is only one member left.

Axl isn't Guns and Roses alone. This is the Axl solo band....nothing more. It was one thing with Steven Adler gone....he was a mess. Still Guns and Roses. It was still Guns and Roses even with Izzy bowing out...the rest were still in. In fact collectively...the updated line up was a better live band than the original. But when the only one left was Axl....it was time to stop the BS. Even KISS wouldn't continue on under the name if it was only Gene Simmons or just Paul Stanley and 3 other guys.
