It’s Official: Guns N’ Roses To Be Inducted Into Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame

[Fabiana]

Congrats to whole band! So happy for GN'R!

As for the reunion, I don't hink it's going to happen, I don't even think Axl will show up, unfortunately. We'll have to wait and see.

interesting to see so many people thinking axl wont show, he see's guns n roses as 'his' so why wouldnt he show up? he does respect the other guys and what they've all done of course,  just a thought

Don't you take it so hard now and please don't take it so bad

[Reformed Terrorist]

As I said on Facebook. I'd be okay with them [original line up] playing a couple of shows but I'd be shit-pissed if the current line up gets thrown to the garbage.

[Guns N Roses 4 Lyf]

what a day .. many many thoughts.. hope axl informs us soon of what his intentions are rather than guess all the way

[CD06]

Congrats to everyone.


The key thing now is simply for everyone to be grown up about this.


Appetite For Destruction and Use Your Illusion transformed GNR into the megaband that it is, and it is the right and sensible thing to do to allow that lineup(s) to be there, along with Axl and whoever he feels should be there from the new band.


They haven't got to perform together and they haven't got to be head over heels about each-other (Axl and Slash).



But it is right that they all go and accept the award, to do the band, the legacy, and themselves as people justice.




I'd hope Axl or Slash might just get into contact and say 'Look, I know things got silly but it is one night where we remember the good things about the past, how do you want to go about it?'

Whatever happens, this is going to be interesting.

[LTS]

Hopefully it's not like what happened with Van Halen, where it was just Hagar and Michael Anthony at the induction.

Imagine this: "REPRESENTING GUNS N' ROSES: Gillby Clarke and Josh Freese!!"

that's an exaggeration, but you get the point. I honstly don't think that Axl, Slash, ect, will perform together, but I do think they will all be there. We might see Slash and Axl in the same room on the same stage, maybe even looking at each other, or EVEN TALKING. woah.

@axlrose @DizzyReed @gunsnroses @richardfortus @bumblefoot @djashba @tommy_stinson The current Guns N' Roses members should attend the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame? Why shouldn't they attend? They are the ones who are keeping such classic songs like Sweet Child O' Mine, November Rain, Welcome to the Jungle & so on alive today. While still keeping true to the music as if you were almost listening to the actual record.
No matter what drama has happened to GNR in the past you cannot be sour towards new members that are busting their asses every night for their fans. Many former members chose to move on and that is fine we're all human. If I had an opportunity to continue a legacy like Guns N' Roses I would do so in a heartbeat and so would everyone else on this planet. Not only are these new gunners bringing back the old classics but they helped make the long awaited Chinese Democracy a reality that we so desperately needed to hear as GNR fans.
I've been a Guns N' Roses fan since the night that MTV Premiered Welcome to the Jungle and Stuck behind the legend ever since. Yes I do miss the old line-up because that's who some of us grew up with but it's not up to us to mend others relations and make everything perfect and wonderful. Let's enjoy and celebrate the great music they have brought us instead of debating who shouldn't be in the R&RHOF;or whatever. I say everyone who has shared the stage with Axl Rose the Greatest front man of all time and has performed under the name Guns N' Roses has a right to be there.
Again without Axl Rose and his current lineup bringing you Guns N' Roses today it would be a sad time for music.
Let's thank them for keeping the beast alive!

From GN'R facebook:
YOUNGSTOWN O-HI-O! Covelli Centre's our jungle tonight! So close yet still far away from the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame. Congratulations to all the 2012 inductees and our sincerest thanks to the Hall's organizers, committee members and voting delegates who supported the GN'R induction - it's a humbling honor to be recognized on this first ballot.

While it's so easy to get hyped up on awards and r...ecognition of the now, let's never forget the soldiers who fight for the freedom we enjoy. ESPECIALLY on this day 70 years ago at Pearl Harbor, the lagoon in Hawaii where the ultimate price was paid. REMEMBER December 7th is the day to commemorate the Japanese attack that drew the United States into World War II.

TODAY is PEARL HARBOR DAY ☮
