Matt Sorum’s return is considered unlikely

Matt Sorum’s return to Guns N ‘Roses is considered unlikely by those who follow the band’s story. He was not included when the guitarist Slash and the bassist DUFF MCKAGAN returned to the group in 2016.

Interestingly, Sorum was touring South America with Slash and Duff when he learned, over the internet, that the two had returned. The former colleagues even communicated it from the situation. In confronting McKagan, the drummer heard that both he and the guitarist had already signed a contract and that the option for maintenance of Frank Ferrer, a member of the training since 2006, was by vocalist Axl Rose.

In an interview from 2024 to the radio 107.7 The Bone (via Igor Miranda website), Matt revealed that he has changed his mind about his absence in Guns N ‘Roses. Before, he was upset. Today, he understands that life reserved other things.

“When people mourn, ‘Oh, you’re not included in the new tour,’ I recognize that at first it was a little strange. I didn’t even get a call. But now I see it differently. I shouldn’t be there. I have a son and a beautiful wife. I don’t know what would have happened to me, old Matt, if it had been called.”
