Title: Re: New Robin Interview Post by: GeorgeSteele on January 17, 2014, 11:07:51 AM That was a good interview. I love Robin's playing on CD, but that TIL solo is in a whole other galaxy. So powerful. Title: Re: New Robin Interview Post by: rebelhipi on January 17, 2014, 11:38:40 AM great interview!
looking forward to see him play with NIN next spring! Solo record sounds promising too. Title: Re: New Robin Interview Post by: JAEBALL on January 17, 2014, 11:48:12 AM That was a good interview. I love Robin's playing on CD, but that TIL solo is in a whole other galaxy. So powerful. Agreed... This I love is simply the best track on the record... his solo is tremendous comparing him to other GNR guitarists saying hes is better or worse than...is kinda silly tho Really interesting read... He seems to have a healthy respect for Axl despite him getting tired of the wait Title: Re: New Robin Interview Post by: One.In.A.Million on January 19, 2014, 01:25:04 PM Very interesting interview, especially considering we don't get Robin interviews at all, very rare indeed. I found it very revealing how Robin describes initially having the viewpoint of helping Axl out. Almost as if Robin didn't view it as a long term commitment at all, but a few months turned into 10+ years.
Also found it interesting how Robin describes Bucket as a showcase guitarist who couldn't stick to the structure of a song, so they let him solo and then do what he wanted. Seemed like Robin and Richard was always responsible for keeping the song structured and I think we as the audience could see that was the case clearly. :hihi: Great read, miss Robin loads!!!... :love: Title: Re: New Robin Interview Post by: HBK on January 19, 2014, 10:04:24 PM Great, Great, Great !!!

First of all I think it's pretty clear that Robin doesn't have an emotional connection with GN'R at all in terms of it's history, he seems to just view himself as a session player who came in to help Axl.
I don't think he viewed his role in GN'R as high as obviously the fans did, we saw him as the saviour who replaced Slash with great success. Where he saw himself as someone who was "not Slash", so he tried his best to fill the role as best he could. I will always LOVE Robin, I would love to read a autobiography from him one day. :D Title: Re: New Robin Interview Post by: Z?phyr on February 27, 2014, 01:49:55 PM really enjoyed reading this one! cheers
