To be honest I think both bands are amazing so its a really tough choice

I'd say Guns N' Roses. I don't really like AC/DC that much.

GNR had a wider variety, from the slow epicness of November Rain to the faster, brilliant look at LA in Welcome to the Jungle. Slash is a brilliant guitarists in many aspects; I think the best Slash solo would have to be Sweet Child of Mine. It's just got a lot of feeling and stuff, which is why I prefer it over November Rain, which is also a great solo.

I don't like AC/DC all that much. Angus Young just thrashes on his guitar. He's pretty good, but.. Slash is better. AC/DC may have had a longer run, but GN'R had more quality. Besides, they still released 4 albums, 5 if you count Use your Illusion 1 and 2 seperately.

Also, to the guy who said that Guns N Roses is back together... No, they aren't at all. The only original GNR member that's in the band currently is Axl Rose.

Peek if you're saying that Angus Young plays Thrash on his guitar, you're stupid. You probably didn't, but the guitarist isn't the whole band and yeah, Slash is amazing, but he can't play solos while having spasms, and he doesn't play while hopping on Axl's shoulders.

AC/DC is like my favorite band of all time! I have a giant poster of them in my room and all of there albums Guns N' Roses are good but... they just can't top AC/DC. AC/DC are one of the greatest bands of all time.

I'll bet you don't have their box-set, Backtracks, with a guitar amp, and all but 1 of their DVD's too... I even have trading cards of them. God, I'm so obsessed, although I haven't listened to them in a while.

I would have to go with Ac/DC. Axle rose is a douche, slash is still cool, AC/DC has way more original and unoriginal hits, and the majority of decent songs from guns n roses where unoriginal. Guns n roses' remake of Bob Dylans knocking on heavens door was and is just horrible. And once again, Axle is a douche, just to make that completely clear. ... Douche.

AC/DC, I was privileged to see them in concert recently, and they are still onstage like 22 year-olds in their sixties. Plus I love the music, War machine all the way,

It's very hard. They are both very good, classic bands. In the end I would have to go with AC/DC, they have more songs I like.

Thun-thun-thunderstruck!
I guess that listening to AC/DC while browsing AG forums, quite gives out my opinion...
