A GUNS N' ROSES Reunion? No Way, Says Guitarist SLASH

July 15, 2003

Entertainment Weekly reports that Axl Rose's decision to form a new version of GUNS N' ROSES — with such ringers as guitarist Buckethead and bassist Tommy Stinson — has ruined any chances of a reunion. "There will never come a time when we get all together and play under the name GUNS 'N ROSES because it's too fuckin' tainted," former GNR guitarist Slash tells the magazine. "If he'd done the solo thing, then we could have gotten together and jammed for one show. Now it's like, over with. He screwed that up." But you can still expect to hear Slash's guitar lines screaming over some GNR classics. "We're not gonna go and do every big GUNS 'N ROSES hit," says Slash about a future VELVET REVOLVER tour. "But we have no problem with our history as long as it's not pushing [VELVET REVOLVER singer] Scott [Weiland] into something he's not into."
