As previously reported, Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler told Howard Stern on his Sirius/XM radio show, that he was one, of several people, who convinced Guns N’ Roses frontman, Axl Rose, to reunite with his original bandmates. In response, Guns N’ Roses has posted a sarcastic thank-you note to Tyler.
A tweet posted on the band’s page seems to be a reaction to Tyler’s story. It reads, “Guns N’ Roses would like to respectfully thank the many people taking credit for our upcoming shows and everything in between. Especially those whom we haven’t spoken to in numerous years who, through the power of media, have somehow served a pivotal, even if non-existent, role. We and the fans thank you!”
Rose, guitarist Slash and bassist Duff McKagan will perform together for the first time since 1993 at four concerts in April. It’s not yet known who else will take part – although guitarist Richard Fortus and keyboardist Dizzy Reed have just quit the Dead Daisies, saying they’ll be taking part in “a momentous project” this year.

Wow, well that’s gratitude for you.
Someone needs to do an intervention on Steven Tyler to get him to shave off that creepy mustache.
I believe the bands post. Tyler needs attention in any way, shape, or form possible. Tyler the world revolves just fine without you. The decision was the bands. How ignorant to believe Tyler had influenced them. Tyler, Simmons, and Stanley believe nothing on earth happened before them and nothing will happen after them. All of them are clearly disconnected from reality. Glad Guns put out the statement on Twitter. Tyler should spend more time on his failing country career or better yet, just collect his social security and fade away with some dignity.
I knew she had nothing to do with it.
yes and thanks to steven the world is round too
