Axl Rose responds to GN'R relaunch talk

Axl Rose has responded to recent speculation about a possible relaunch of Guns N' Roses with their Appetite for Destruction line-up.

Guitarist Slash recently suggested that he would consider rejoining the band if Rose phoned him and apologised.

Writing on Twitter, Rose said: "Contrary to anyone's claims there are no concrete plans nor were there ever for a tour, a relaunch or sponsors (n' certainly not to replace anyone in the band) beyond a collection of random ideas thrown out by various individuals w/out any real foundation or negotiations in place other than our prior involvements (which wouldn't take a rocket scientist to put together) (sic).

"And 4 the record [manager] Doc McGhee is no longer involved w/either myself or GN'R. N' b4 it's twisted "prior involvements" has nothing to do with old GN'R."
