All About GNR

This is a lens that is is devoted to the awesomeness of GNR, and the music of GNR.

GNR is one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Their meteoric rise and fall is simply legendary, and utterly fascinating. This lens will bring to you some of the greatest GNR songs of all time, along with great performances by the one and only Slash, and information about their rise, and their demise.

So, what happened to GNR?

The answer to this question is really a difficult one to answer. It seems to me however that there are three possible reasons for the split of GNR.

1) They were a victim of their own successes. Their meteoric rise caused each of them to grow egos, and eventually led to conflict down the road.

2) The departure of Izzy Stradlin. For Appetite for Destruction, Izzy was one of the main song writers, along with the rhthm guitarist. As Axl's increasingly tried to take the spotlight from the rest of the band, Izzy got mad and quit the band. From then on, Guns n Roses would never be the same.

3) Axl Rose was crazy. Axl didn't really like anybody else trying to run what he saw as his band. His ideas generally ran contrary to what the rest of the band wanted, and as they turned against him, Axl got mad and quit the band himself, thus dissolving GNR.
