Title: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: Mr_Brownface on March 19, 2006, 12:12:39 AM Is it my bad 60 year old brain, or did Robin quit the band once and then come back? I seem to remember something about this.

Title: Re: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: HungerForChaos on March 19, 2006, 12:21:35 AM Why does Fortus look so much like Izzy? Axl forced him to get plastic surgery to make him look like Izzy. :) Title: Re: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: the dirt on March 19, 2006, 12:26:44 AM How long was he out for?
Title: Re: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: Genesis on March 19, 2006, 12:27:41 AM How long was he out for? Less than a year, I think. Title: Re: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: Poof! on March 19, 2006, 12:29:08 AM August 1st, 1999 - Robin Finck leaves GN'R and rejoins his former group, Nine Inch Nails.:
http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/history/history9699.php He was confirmed to be a part of the band again in 2000. Title: Re: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: the dirt on March 19, 2006, 12:30:00 AM I thought it was more than that..
Too bad robin never mentioned anything about his work in GNR when he was. Title: Re: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on March 19, 2006, 12:47:41 AM He had a two year contract, and when it expired, he went back to NIN. After they finished touring, he re-joined Guns.
Title: Re: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: Ax on March 19, 2006, 12:52:12 AM I could be wrong, but I seem to remember he left simply because his contract was up and he didn't bother signing another one because at the time he thought that the album would never be finished and thus there was no point in remaining a member of the band. And then I assume when Axl said that they were going to be playing the shows in Vegas and Rio Robin saw some actual action in the gnr camp and decided to rejoin to be a part of it. Again, I could be wrong about all of this, but that's what I seem to remember occuring even though most of that was just based on rumors.

To hell with Finck. I'm drunk,and don't give two fucks. Richard is more than capable than playing lead. :smoking: Title: Re: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: godiva on March 19, 2006, 04:39:54 AM 60 years old? Wow, and a GNR fan? You rock! You must the oldest here on the forum. Welcome!
Title: Re: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: CAFC Nick on March 19, 2006, 07:04:35 AM Yeah Finck quit and Navarro was the lead guitarist on "Oh My God" which is on the End of Days soundtrack.

Title: Re: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: ppbebe on March 19, 2006, 08:19:56 AM Nah, don't think so. Did he? Reading the thread might help sometime? ;) August 1st, 1999 - Robin Finck leaves GN'R and rejoins his former group, Nine Inch Nails.: FYIhttp://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/history/history9699.php He was confirmed to be a part of the band again in 2000. Loder: When do you think we will actually see this album? Is it possible to say early next year? Rose: We're hoping. Yes, definitely, everything seems to be going well. Robin's departure was abrupt, sudden, you know, not expected... Loder: He just wanted to get back to Nine Inch Nails, right? Rose: [continuing] ... but at the same time, it's turned out to be a good thing. We've been able to push some of the guitar parts a step farther, that had he been here, it's not something that would have been considered, and I wouldn't have been rude enough to attempt to do that. Robin did a great job, but we've been able to up the ante a little bit. Dave came in and did something great on "Oh My God," and we've had a few other people come in, so that was a setback for a while, but then it's turned out to be a good thing.

Post by: Eric on March 19, 2006, 09:30:25 AM I know there is an interview somewhere with Robin talking a bit about leaving-he was frustrated with no vocals on any songs yet, songs not finished and so on-it was an interesting read-
Title: Re: Didn't Robin Finck quit once? Post by: sic. on March 20, 2006, 09:31:06 AM Oh yeah, he did talk.
"There's not a release date right now, not that I'm aware of," says Nine Inch Nails guitarist Robin Finck, who teamed with Rose for much of the album before quitting in frustration. "And I would know."? :hihi: - Robin, 2000 (http://www.robinfinck-birdhouse.com/press/WOSinterview00.html) There are also other GNR mentions in the Birdhouse (http://robinfinck-birdhouse.com/)'s press section, but they aren't very detailed. |
