Tommy The New Slash?

[Butch Français]

In my opinion, Tommy Stinson is like the spokesman of the band. But Richard Fortus is the new member who have the most important potencial of impact for the general public. I think that Richard Fortus has the potencial to become a worlwide superstar, not as huge as Axl or Slash, but he has a great potencial.
Richard Fortus has a phenomenal stage presence.

Fortus' stage presence is the same as I would expect it to be from any other boyband guitarist, to me he seems absolutely like a 100% fake-ass on stage, no charisma, just hitting his guitar, trying to look cool (which makes me wanna beat the shit outta him even more...)

Fortus can still play the November Rain solo way better than Robin...

I think he's a lil fake too... But he improved the guitar work with The Blues and Madagascar and that's what it matters to me.

Robin Finck's an awesome player but not as awesome as Slash or even close to his guitar god status.
