Joe Elliot Of Def Leppard Wants Steven Adler & Matt Sorum In Guns N' Roses Reunion

With three of the original members of Guns N' Roses reuniting onstage (Axl Rose, Slash, and Duff McKagan), fans are hopeful that they will hear the announcement that the entire original lineup will be making their triumphant returns together. 

While speaking with Eddie Trunk on Eddie Trunk Live, Def Leppard vocalist Joe Elliot is also hopeful that the GNR reunion is indeed an actual reunion. "Because if it's a true reunion, I personally would like to see... I think the only way it would really work [is] they'd have to go with two drummers; they would have to take Steven [Adler] and Matt [Sorum]. Obviously, Steven, having never played on the '[Use YourIllusion' stuff, they would trade drummers out. I mean, it may be a little cabaret."

He continued, saying, "It's hard to know what the right answer is for this question, and I wasn't expecting it, so really... I don't have a perfect answer to this. But I'm glad to see Axl and Slash seem to have put their differences aside, which is good."

"I don't know Axl that well, but I know Duff quite well, having working with him in Rock N' Roll Allstars and Kings Of Chaos. And the same with Slash as well... he's worked with Kings Of Chaos and Slash opened for Def Leppard last year on a couple of shows. We've known these guys for years and I get on really well with them. I bought a Harly off Gilby Clarke twenty years ago, who's probably not even gonna be involved."
