Another Ex-Gunner Says Axl Shouldn't Use Guns N' Roses Name

(antiMusic) Another former member of Guns N' Roses has spoken out against Axl Rose carrying on the band under the famed moniker. A couple of weeks ago Steven Adler said that Axl should have released "Chinese Democracy" under the band name W.A.R. (W. Axl Rose) and not Guns N' Roses and now Adler's replacement in the group says that Axl shouldn't be using the name since the group lacks some of core original members. "I'm not saying I'm an original member, okay, but I understand the core of the band, which is Slash and Duff and probably Izzy," former GNR drummer Matt Sorum said according to a Blabbermouth.net report. "It's a shame, and you know what, this goes back to a Paul McCartney thing. Does he call himself The Beatles? Not saying we were as big as The Beatles, but — does Sting call himself The Police? No. Does Jimmy Page and Robert Plant go out there calling themselves Led Zeppelin? Nope." - more on this story
