I agree with Blue. This is not Guns N'Roses anymore.

Even if they aren't Guns N Roses anymore, I saw them a year ago and it was an amazing show. Came with Danko Jones and Sebastian Bach and all together the show was over four hours long. It was the first time I have ever been to a concert where the band actually plays all the big songs you expect to hear... Plus, I got to shake Axl's hand, which was coo.

Very cool. I stood 5 feet from Slash for an entire Velvet Revolver show. Well, 5 feet when he was on my side of the stage anyway. He played several solos right in front of me, including It's So Easy and Mr. Brownstone.
Nope. He has not got Jeff Waters or Dave Mustaine or Duff McKagan or Dave Lombardo.
I could never get into this band for some reason. I tried but they just don't do it for me.
To each his own thing. It's not my "cup of tea" that's for sure.
The original line up was from the 80s. Most bands that were around back then that are still around today just don't have that 80s vibe to them anymore. It's true. Blame it on age or the fire they had is burning out or whatever. So they all suck in some way compared to their early years. Maiden, Priest, Slayer, Megadeth, Anthrax, GNR, Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Pretty Maids, Testament. To name but a few of those still around from back then that have some good material from their newer stuff. But it just can't compare to the older music they made.

For those with a bit of patience and inclination, here are some of Axl's voice tracks from Chinese Democracy. You can advance the video to get to the singing parts as there are pauses where there is no vocal.
Just listen to this man sing - unmatched power and range.

Apparently I'm going to see them in a couple weeks. I hope they don't stink up the joint.

They'll go on late (i.e. 10:45 PM) and finish very late (i.e. 1:35 AM).
And they'll blow you away, guaranteed.

Axl and Slash, together? I doubt it. I wonder who will attend?
Axl could easily had done what he is doing now, but under a different band name, even his own name. It's big enough.
The rest of the 'real' lineup at least had the decency to call themselves something else (Velvet Revolver).
Namesake aside, Axl has a good lineup with him, based on what I've heard.
As far as GNR in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, cool, but everytime I hear about the HoF I get annoyed because Rush has been repeatedly passed up and they've been around for over a decade longer, didn't break up and released four or five times more albums, and still sell out arenas. But anyhoo...GnR...woohoo...
