have announced that guns 'n' roses frontman axl rose will replace current frontman brian johnson for the remainder of their latest tour.
as good a singer as rose was in the late 80's and early 90's, i don't think he has the ability to replace bj. different singer will give different vocal treatment to fans favourites. may still put on a good performance, but it already feels like a compromise.
i suspect, and hope that this tour will be their final one, and they will hang up the school uniform, dry clean the cap, put away the plectrum and retire the sg. i think the loss of malcolm, and now the inevitable retirement of brian, means that the band should leave the fans wanting more. a tremendous innings, with some great anthems and memories to leave us. just hope they don't spoil it. some bands just know when to stop (queen, led zep, motorhead), and i hope we can remember them for the great music and live performances of the past decades.

That's a shame. Rose will ruin it.

In defence of MotÃ¶rhead, they only stopped because lemmy died. Agreed that AC/DC with Axel Rose just doesn't seem right. I guess people said that when Bon Scott died too. Now I saw Hawkwind the other day, nearly 50 years on and they're were absolutely brilliant. Some bands go on and on

To be fair the recent Guns and Roses tour will have sharpened Rose's excellent voice and all the leaping about will prepare him well to get down to his 45 stone fighting weight for AC/DC

	Never knowingly right.

I'd rather he took Slash,Duff and co to Wembley Stadium.

He's sort of filled in before..

Oh just found this

I'm heading to the gig at the Olympic stadium. My initial thoughts are that I'd prefer them to cancel, or at the very least make it clear that they have Brian Johnston's blessing.

Axl Rose is a bit of a w@nker really. If anyone I would have asked Noddy Holder.
