| A spokesperson for Brian May said it is "highly improbable" that the Queen guitarist will join Guns n' Roses in any capacity. That notion was echoed by G n' R manager Doug Goldstein, who said, "there haven't been any conversations like that." Phil Symes, Queen's U.K.-based publicist, was unaware of an Internet report that suggested May would be one in a series of celebrity guitarists joining G n' R on the road when and if they ever tour. "I was just with Brian last week, so I think we would know," Symes says. "I think he very much enjoys what he does, doing his own music and working with other members of [Queen]." Goldstein joked that the idea of using a rotating set of celebrity guitarists "sounds like a cool idea" and added that "[guitarist] Robin [Finck] is doing his Nine Inch Nails thing and we have no idea how long that's gonna last." Goldstein said that Axl Rose is currently laying down vocals for the long-awaited album and there's no tentative release date planned.
