Guns N' Roses 'Need To Keep Making Music' Says Guitarist
... (hennemusic)
Guns N' Roses guitarist Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal says he's eager for the band to record and release some new music after they completed with their current live commitments. "We're still doing shows, and I think once we clear our schedule and focus more on new music, it'll happen," Thal tells Rolling Stone. "We just have little things on the back burner, just waiting for the right time for us to organize and make something new out of it. Hopefully we can make more music - that's what it's about." "It's what the fans want, too," he continued. "They want new music, and we can do it. It's not that we're done. I'm not ready for that. We need to keep making music. We have a great band that's ready to do it and can do it well." more on this story hennemusic is an official news provider for antiMusic.com. Copyright hennemusic - Excerpted here with permission.

Artistfacts: You can leave comments about the artist/band at the bottom of the page.
Rose was married to Erin Everly, the daughter of Don Everly, from April 1990 until the marriage was annulled in January, 1991. They met in 1986 and had a very tumultuous relationship that ended in court proceedings and allegations of abuse. In a 1994 People magazine profile, Everly claimed that Axl beat her repeatedly and even removed the doors to their home so he could keep an eye on her. She sued him in 1994 after she was called to testify in a lawsuit brought by Axl's ex-girlfriend Stephanie Seymour, which alleged similar abuse. Everly later dated David Arquette before disappearing from public life.
Rose and Stradlin formed the band. They took their name from two bands they used to play in, L.A. Guns and Hollywood Rose.
Axl Rose had a persistent stalker. Her name is Karen Jane McNeil, and she claimed to communicate with Rose through telepathy.
"Axl Rose" is an anagram of "Oral Sex."
Slash played on Michael Jackson's albums
Dangerous,
Invincible, and
HIStory. He also played at Jackson's 2001 reunion shows in New York City.
Their first gigs were in Seattle. About 100 miles outside of Los Angeles, their van broke down, so they hitchhiked to Seattle, where they played 5 sparsely attended shows.
Slash got his nickname from a family friend because he was always in a hurry.
In 2001, Rose reformed the band with all new members - he was allowed to keep the name because he owns the rights. He played with various versions of the new group over the next few years, working on Chinese Democracy, which was finally released in 2008.
Slash's first guitar was a one-stringed acoustic. When he was 15 his grandmother gave him a electric Les Paul copy. (thanks, Alex - Little Rock, AR)
Early in their career, they lived in a small apartment in Los Angeles they called Hell House because of alcohol, drugs, girls and all manner of sin. (thanks, Micha - Opole, Poland)
Before taking up guitar, Slash was mainly interested in BMX riding and competed at a professional level. (thanks, Tom - Trowbridge, England)
McKagan's pancreas exploded in 1994 because of his severe drinking habits. He has been sober ever since and now sticks to non-alcoholic beer.
After this incident, he started taking economics classes to better understand his residuals, and he became an expert on the subject, getting his own monthly financial column for Playboy.com in 2009. (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)
The "Guns" part of their name comes from Tracii Guns, who is a guitarist that was with the band when they first formed, but left before they settled on a name. Guns later formed the band L.A. Guns.
Axl Rose and Izzy Stradlin were both native from the small town of Lafayette, Indiana, which Axl has described as very "close-minded." Asked about small town values, Axl replied: "That's a load of s--t."
Steve Adler was the first to leave the band, getting kicked out in 1990 when his drug abuse got out of control. He sued the band, claiming he was owed royalties and that the other members exasperated his downward spiral. At the trial, a lawyer asked Duff McKagan about "The Spaghetti Incident," referring to the drugs Adler kept in a refrigerator when the band was rehearsing in Chicago. That phrase became the name of the band's 1993 album. The case was settled, with Adler receiving $2.5 million.
Comments:
Pre-1985 (Hollywood Rose) Axl And Tracii Combined Surnames Which Gives Guns N' Roses (Slash,Duff & Steven Where In Road Crew around This Time and various other bands)
W.AXL ROSE
TRACII GUNS
IZZY STRADLIN
OLE BEICH
ROB GARDNER
AFTER THIS IT WAS AXL, IZZY, DUFF, SLASH & STEVEN
THEN AXL, IZZY (TO BE REPLACED BY GILBY CLARKE DURING UYI WORLD TOUR),SLASH,DUFF,DIZZY REED & MATT SORUM
SLASH WALKED OUT IN '95 (due to the unfair dismissal of gilby and also because Axl brought in Paul "Tobias" Huge without consulting the rest of the band on either topic) AND DUFF LEFT IN '97 NOT '99
Then you get the line-Up Axl, Dizzy, Tommy Stintson, Buckethead, Josh Freese, Chris Pitman, Paul "Tobias"Huge

I Have Loved This Band Since I Was 5 years old (No Joke) So I know A s--t Load About Them I'm Practically A Walking GNR Encyclopedia.
I heard a cover of "Back in the saddle again"
The vocals were GREAT!! no body covers steven tyler and comes out winning. But it was so good.
Guns N' Roses was the preband for Aerosmith back in the 80's
This year marks the 20th anniversary of GnR's first album, "Appetite For Destruction" it was a perfect record. Axl Rose's downfall that every record after that had to be a #1 hit to.
AXLE , SLASH ,DUFF,IZZY STEVE,MATT.DIZZI,GILBY PLZ REUNITE ROCK WORLD BY UR GARDEN OF EDEN
WE KNO THAT "NOTHING LAST FOREVER EVEN COLD NOVEMBER RAIN ". BUT MAKE GN`R IMMORTAL BY UR SONG
Shame on you Axl!!!
Amazing
I agree. I don't like the new GNR because it's not the same as listening to their old stuff. Without Slash they're nothing
July 11th, 1990
his last show was June 21st, 1990 at the fourth Farm Aid in Indianapolis.....
he was an amazing drummer and if he would have stayed he would be considered in the top 7 drummer in my opinion....
If you have any question's please e-mail me!?!

I would Give anything to have the boys back together for one last concert!! I Love Dont Cry and November Rain, (My girlfriend does too) (If Ya know what I mean!!)grrrr....
Face It...
The album are on the way, I just know...
I hope...
Dont give op!
But, Velvet Revolver is Ok to..
I think, that Axl should try to get 'the others' back in the band...
I miss the OLD Guns N' Roses...!
axl is wrong for going out and making the new album no one can beat slashs guitar and it wont sound the same.
however, i bought the Velvet Revolver CD and i really like it. not as much as the old GnR stuff, but its pretty good. n im goin to see VR in december so we'll see how they play live.
i really think that the old GnR is one of the greatest bands, along with Zeppelin, AC/DC, and The Doors. too bad they didnt stay together.
Vocals:W.Axl Rose(LEGALLY CHANGED from William Bailey.... 1985-
Bass:Michael "Duff" McKagan...1985-1999
Izzy Stradlin(Jeffrey Isbell)1985-1991
and technically, because Steven Adler is the drummer on some songs from the pair of Use Your Illusion's, he really was the drummer until September 24 1991.
GnR is a great band. I love paradise city.
