Finck's the man, lookin coo in the old pics...but the NIN's look was his all time best.  I hate goth, but that look combined with Buckethead was great.  Still liking the beard, long hair tho, but NIN look is better!

fuckin' A dude same here.  i loved when he and bucket were the freaky ones in GNR.  I only wish people didnt complain their asses off that when they saw them.  seriously those days were awesome.

Wow, Robin actually looked like a pretty cool dude back then.

Not saying anything about his musical ability, but I've always disliked how Finck pulls his big costume changes every so often.  I wish he wouldn't try to be so image driven.  It keeps me from feeling like I ever really know who Robin is.  I wish he'd just be himself... dude who rocks his guitar.  He doesn't need to go on Extreme Makeover:  Guitarist Edition to win anyone's respect.

God, then you must hate Axl, and come to think of it, Pitman!

He was a Biker in '01, wore a dress in '06...

For the record, I do think a lot of Axl's image changes have been weak and pointless.  I'm happy he's where he is now though.  Axl looks good these days.

And the difference with Pitman is that he always looked fuckin' amazing with his different looks -- the slutty cop, the white suit, the studed leather kilt...

Plus, that's kinda what I like about Pitman.  He's just this humble, creative dude who's really good with music and technology.  Suddenly he finds himself a member of GNR, "the world's most dangerous band."  What's a guy like that gonna do?  I think it's cute that he thought he needed a bad-ass image back in 2001.  He pulled it off really well considering who he is and all.  But I'm glad he's more mature and classy these days.  He looks positively dashing in that white suit.

You're amusing.

Robin isn't allowed to change his "image", but when Chris does the same thing it's cool.



I'm glad Robin can do whatever he wants.

Yeah those were the best days of GN'R in my opinion.  I'll always support them, but with Buckethead and crazy ass lookin Finck, they were a one of a kind looking band.

As much as I love Bucket, I prefer the sound mix nowadays. It sounds more guitar driven in the rhythm IMO.

Anyways, loved the pics. Would love to hear something from that time...

Thanks!

Yes, because Pitman's image changes were cool...

You decide: 
emo zombie vs. slutty cop
homeless guy vs. ivory suited angel of synth

Official score:
Pitman: 2
Finck:  0

GAME OVER.

"emo zombie vs. slutty cop

 :rofl: :rofl:


Robin changes every so often, I think that's great- I was so relieved when the emo zombie from 2002 was gone.
And these old school pictures are great.

The game is over and it's robins, chriss and ours.

Both robins image changes (always)and Chris are cool. I think they are true to their current selves.
The attempts to piss on fans by being biased toward Chris and against the other band member are so uncool.

No more games.

Seeing these pictures makes me wonder why in the heck he ever started the goth thing he was doing during the 2002 tour.

these pictures are from the late 1980s early 1990s.   By the time he joined NIN in 1994, he had that gothic look you speak of.

nah dude i PREFER his beard... i'm talking about the the douche bags that went absolutly crazy when they saw finck's goth look and ripped into him for it, never giving him a single chance to prove himself, only moaning about how gnr doesn't have leather jackets and slash anymore.

I like his look back then. He looks good now, too, but I'm not too keen on the Charles Bukowski look. But I'm just glad he doesn't have the goth style anymore. Although his Clockwork Orange droog suit may have been pretty cool in another band.  :)

hahah i agree he looks good now but i see no bukowski in the man at all... he'd have to gain a hundred pounds and constantly be holding a beer.
