Title: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: Christian on March 22, 2009, 10:28:02 AM Who will do the tour?
Brain's emails said that he was starting to do rehearsels; Gn'R myspace says Frank Ferrer is the Drummer; Axl says both are in the band. Finally, who will be the Drummer? Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: jarmo on March 22, 2009, 10:49:53 AM Axl says both are in the band. There you go. /jarmo Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: Christian on March 22, 2009, 12:06:52 PM Axl says both are in the band. There you go. /jarmo But i mean.. who will be onstage? There are not place for both at same time... you know what i mean :) Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: jarmo on March 22, 2009, 12:28:43 PM I'm sure GN'R will figure it out.
/jarmo Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: wells on March 22, 2009, 12:42:49 PM they are actually rehearsing so that Brain is playing only with left hand and right leg and Frank is playing only with right hand and left leg, the only exception is Prostitute where Brain plays handless with both legs and Frank plays with both hands and left leg ...

Axl says both are in the band. There you go. /jarmo But i mean.. who will be onstage? There are not place for both at same time... you know what i mean :) Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain...

There are not place for both at same time... you know what i mean :) If there is place on stage for 2 keyboardplayers than it couldn't be that difficult to create some space for 2 drummers.

Post by: ppbebe on March 22, 2009, 01:58:20 PM I really won't hate to see both of them on a stage. ;D
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: GNRFAN20 on March 22, 2009, 01:59:21 PM Be epic to see them both on the stage.
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: imsorry on March 22, 2009, 02:07:55 PM Even with the fact there is almost no drum machine in the record ill vote for MPC2000! :hihi:
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: russtcb on March 22, 2009, 03:59:03 PM I want to see Frank on the tour.
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: King Axl on March 22, 2009, 04:42:12 PM Maybe one of them can play tambourine or bongos?
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: makane on March 22, 2009, 05:01:55 PM MPC2000 plays the bass drum, Frank plays snare and toms, and finally Brain can play cymbals. Sounds pretty simple to me.
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: volcano62 on March 22, 2009, 06:18:50 PM I heard from a friend that the MPC2000 is going on tour.
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: Reinaldo on March 22, 2009, 08:29:11 PM According to www.gunnersbrasil.com , moderator everton.gunner emailed Brain asking if he was out since on Ashba's mini GNR site he's not there, while Frank is. He got this answer:
"I'm playing the new songs and Frank the old ones" Thanks a lot Everton. Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: Death Cube K on March 22, 2009, 08:32:03 PM 1 drummer is more than enough.
As a Brain fan, I'll be happy to at least see him do the new songs. Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain...

He got this answer: "I'm playing the new songs and Frank the old ones" Thanks a lot Everton. so Brain is not capable of playing the old songs? Or Do they just keep Frank out of respect?

Probably has something to do with the stars aligning properly and the humidity of the air for Franks favor when Axl made the decision. Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: Christian on March 22, 2009, 10:39:08 PM Unless Brain being sarcastic, that sounds pathetic.
Tommy: - Hey, let's play Sorry Frank: I'm still here Dizzy: Where's Brain? Chris: Bathroom Axl: let's do Sweet Child, until Brain come back AXL, choose only ONE drummer man. Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: gunns1 on March 22, 2009, 10:41:16 PM it will probably mean now that the setlist wont be as 'spontaneous' as its use to be,
the songs will probably be in order of Old songs> guitar solo > newsongs etc, instead of Axl saying to the guys 'its time for shacklers' etc.. Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: jazjme on March 23, 2009, 12:47:45 AM not necessarily.. in my mind I can see then having 2 drum sets, (especially if its a stadium tour), and both could be there adding something and being "featured " on different tunes, some people are too damn narrow minded.
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: greekmule on March 23, 2009, 01:01:16 AM 2 drummers would be way too cool, as long as they practise a lot together. allman brothers band has been doing that for 40 years now : ok:

Tommy: - Hey, let's play Sorry Frank: I'm still here Dizzy: Where's Brain? Chris: Bathroom Axl: let's do Sweet Child, until Brain come back AXL, choose only ONE drummer man. Yeah, I agree. One drummer for old songs and one for new is pretty lame. Man, this band is getting confusing. Three guitarists, two keyboards, two drummers. Why not get another bass player to fill the sound up a bit more? Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: alejoyp on March 23, 2009, 01:57:34 AM This is bizarre...
I prefer Brain in the band, his work in CD is awesome (Prostitute, Sorry, CITR) n' I wish to see him playin' those songs alive... Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: jazjme on March 23, 2009, 02:52:28 AM I guess alot of you folk are unaware of the great music from the 60s, this isn't really uncommon for bands to have different members etc, , and go on to play in bands and sometimes play together again, . its fucking exciting . and for those who want to hold onto faves ,and decide in your mind that its the end all. Your fucking naive.

Post by: Continental Drift on March 23, 2009, 05:21:53 AM I think Brain was being sarcastic... virtually everything that comes out of that guy's mouth is sarcastic. :hihi:
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: gnrjanus on March 23, 2009, 06:34:25 AM This just makes me happy cause.
1) Both drummers deserve a spot on stage and the right share 2) They will play like 10/10 old and new songs so each drummer get their right for the right amount of songs on stage. so no-one would be left behind with only like 2 out of 20 songs... Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: Classic Case on March 23, 2009, 08:05:35 AM I dont like the idea.....Guns isnt a 60's band, 2 drumers is lame, just choose one and thats it, if it will like like Brain says, they gonna play the old songs first and then the new ones?...or they gonna switch every 15-20 minutes? ???
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: IKnowWhereIAM on March 23, 2009, 09:28:57 AM Frank on cowbell!!! :hihi:
In all seriousness, they will work it out, and we have a tour to look forward to! Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain...

First people whine about GN'R replacing somebody who leaves. Then they whine about keeping a member. Fucking hell. I'm sure most of you would be able to look Frank in the eyes and tell him you wish he wasn't in the band. :rofl: /jarmo Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain...

I would prefer Brain myself, but two drummers would be pretty sick too. Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: Lostrose on March 23, 2009, 11:57:21 AM Im super excited for the tour tho. start saving today. it would be ashame to have my car repo'd just because i spent the money on GnR tickets instead...

I for one would prefer Brain to be the official, ONLY, DEDICATED drummer but since Frank Ferrer did such a good job on the previous tour and on the album, I think it would be pretty unfair to tell him that he was just a replacement and that it's time to leave. I consider him part of GNR, just as Brain. But I don't know, two drummers sounds weird because it's not really needed in the first place. It's not the Fantomas/Melvins big band, it's GNR...

Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: ppbebe on March 23, 2009, 12:17:14 PM and if they're to play together, imagine the magnificence of the show.
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: Butch Français on March 23, 2009, 12:18:41 PM and if they're to play together, imagine the magnificence of the show. maybe as a solo thing, but not through the whole show! that'd never work with this kinda music. Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: ppbebe on March 23, 2009, 12:32:10 PM what kinda music?
Even orchestra's worked for rock music since mid 60s. Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: DarkFairy on March 23, 2009, 03:07:42 PM Let's just be happy there seems to be a tour in the works! :peace: I like both, maybe they'll take turns? ;)

Post by: Layflats on March 24, 2009, 01:56:28 PM On Gn'R myspace and on Ashba's site it lists Ferrer as a band member, not Brain.
Isn't it safe to assume that Frank would be the only drummer during a tour? Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain...

Isn't it safe to assume that Frank would be the only drummer during a tour? I believe the Myspace page was changed quite a while ago to reflect the fact that Frank was on tour with the band. Since then, Axl has said Brain is in the band: Quote Is Brain in the band? Last I checked. Brain works on several things with Guns either from his home or in the studio. /jarmo Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: ppbebe on March 24, 2009, 02:08:55 PM na or why brain's been rehearsing?
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: GnR-NOW on March 24, 2009, 03:22:43 PM I think all fans like Brain and Frank. So with either one you know you'll get a great show. I would like to see Brain again, but if it's Frank you know you have a guy who lovees being in the band and plays his heart out. So its win win either way.
Title: Re: Finally, Frank Ferrer or Brain... Post by: Layflats on March 24, 2009, 04:36:26 PM Brain has been one of my favorite drummers, pre-guns with Primus. It would be a treat for me to see him live again in any setting. I just don't see the two drummer thing happening. I'd speculate that Axl would see it as not very rock-n-roll, like a variety show antic. I'm putting my bet on Ferrer as the tour drummer.
