Agora ? oficial: Buckethead saiu do Guns N'Roses (18/03/04)

Depois de quatro anos como guitarrista do GUNS N'ROSES, tempo no qual a banda somente fez alguns shows, o guitarrista Buckethead decidiu sair. Conhecido como aquele m?sico exc?ntrico que usava uma m?scara e um balde da KFC na cabe?a, ele simplesmente se cansou de tanto esperar o lan?amento do CD. Apesar disso o Guns ainda est? confirmado para ser a banda principal do dia 30 de maio no Rock in Rio Lisboa. Um novo guitarrista ainda n?o foi anunciado e s? deveremos conhec?-lo no show em Portugal.

Nova baixa no Guns?n?Roses

Por Daniel Setti

18.03.04
Ningu?m ag?enta mais esperar pelo novo disco do Guns?n?Roses ? nem os pr?prios integrantes. Com a paci?ncia esgotada por causa da enrola??o de Axl para apresentar o tal do ?Chinese Democracy? ou pelo menos fazer shows, o guitarrista Buckethead decidiu pular fora do barco.

O exc?ntrico m?sico, que usa uma m?scara e um balde da lanchonete KFC como chap?u (!) e que s? fala com a imprensa atrav?s de um boneco de m?o (tipo o Mr. Hat, de ?South Park?), tomou sua decis?o no final do ano passado, apesar de sua sa?da ter sido comunicada apenas agora. Axl agora ter? que se virar se quiser arrumar um substituto, j? que o Guns est? confirmado como uma das principais atra??es do Rock in Rio Lisboa, dia 30 de maio.

Figura conhecida no circuito vanguardista americano, Buckethead agora volta sua aten??o para seus outros projetos. Entre eles est?o dois discos solo (?Population Overdrive? e ?Cuckoo Clocks Of Hell?), e o supergrupo Claypool?s Bucket Of Bernie Brains, do qual participam o baixista Les Claypool (Primus), o baterista Brain (ex-Primus, atual Guns) e o lend?rio tecladista Bernie Worrell, que tocou com meio mundo.

Pilferk - I just read your sig:
"Considering the current news...and our bet...unless there is a drastic change, for the next 30 days:
I am Crowebar's dog boy. "

Did you make a bet that CD would be out this year?  

I remember reading a post where someone made a similar bet with his gf/wife and I think he is now washing dishes for this whole year  

Well, here's hoping you dont have to be anyone's dog boy.

Crowebar and I, about a month ago, made a little bet about Bucketheads leaving GnR.  The bet was that, if there was official news by June that Buckethead had left GnR, I would add "I am Crowebar's dog boy".  If not, then he would add to his sig "I am Pilferk's dog boy".  I consider the MTV report to be relatively official.  Should it turn out to be wrong...I'll pull the sig.  It'll be there until April 16th, FYI.

pilferk-  I think you should remove the qualifiers.  It would be so much better if it were just "I am Crowebar's dog boy."

MTV Brazil reported he was out in 2001 and obviously they were wrong... Id belive the american MTV over most websites but i still dont belive this report that hes gone... who said it? there is no name for the manager to back up the story.. If i had his email i would like to mail the man who reported this story...

[Eva GnRAxlRosette]

Axl must be fuming, i feel sorry for the guy, he must be under so much pressure at the moment, from the label, us the fans, all this greatest hits legal crap! and now members of his own band. Something has to give in the near future, so much is happening in the world of Guns n Roses its only a matter of time.

Its refreshing to hear someone express some empathy for what Axl might be going through

The 'he brought it on himself' arguement assumes too much that we dont know.  I'd just as soon go with my gut feelings... and belief in Axl's good intentions.

I just sent an email to GnR management. I asked about BH, RiR, a tour and CD and i got a short answer that keeps my hopes up:  Our plans have not changed.  

So don?t loose your hopes  

   You actually got an answer!
In the meantime of Jarmo posting thier email to you
can you post your email to them?

[grog mug]

I do recall that article from MTV in 2001.  I've got a feeling we'll be seeing Bucket at RIR4.

[Caligula13]

could somebody change the name of this thread. it is NOT official. it is just fucking MTV!

Just for the record, I take no personal joy in Pilferk having to add this 'Dogboy' thing to his sig.


I'm not sure that it's actually even necessary either until this whole BH shit is somehow confirmed by GNR management.

Oh, brother, now I've heard it all. Poor, poor Axl, it must be sooooo hard being Axl, I'm going to cry myself to sleep tonight because poor, poor Axl has it so rough, lets all hold a big PITY PARTY for poor, poor Axl.

Buckethead y do u have to go from GNR  

[holidayidol]

To quote the admin from the GNR Rumor message board:

Buckethead unofficially left Guns n'roses in early 2003, and have been rehearsing with another guitarist since

The new guitarist is likely to be unveiled at Rio

That is what I have be told so far. I'm not naming my source here, as I keep getting angry people emailing me

and...

Someone from the Alt.gnr newsgroup spoke to Dizzy last night in Conneticut, so this is reaped from there

Apparently Dizzy said that "they have a replacement for buckethead since he left a year ago but he has no clue what is going on with that"

I think this is relatively close to what I said, and this also fits in with what Dizzy said the other day

So it looks as though Buckethead as unofficially left, as Dizzy said the other day, but they have a replacement guitarist

Perhaps Buckethead has just been impartial and uninvolved with GNR all year. The guys assumed he may be as good as gone all along, and without formally replacing him, have another guy ready.  T'would be a smart move to have made.

(Kind of like the promoters of RIR are making sure there is a backup band in the GNR slot, just in case they don't show up...also smart )

If this is true, then it explain a lot of things, the main one being what is taking so long for CD. They had to re-record Buckets parts. I just find it hard to believe it took this long to someone to find out.

[C0ma]

great a new guitar player......because every band obviously needs three guitar players.....

I can't wait to see what barrel they found this guy at the bottom of. Maybe this time he'll play while wearing a Hamburgler costume.......no wait maybe it's going to be Mayor McCheese.

[Mutherfunker]

I previously unveiled the new guitarist for Guns N' Roses:

If anyone cares, Rolling Stone is running the story now, too.

i like the way rolling stone did this. the "where the hell is axl rose?" pages on the other hand...

[littleredcorvette]

Hang on a second!!! As foR these b/s 'management emails'......if he left in early 2003, can someone xplain why HE ONLY ADDED THE GNR BOARD TO HIS SITE IN 2004?!!!

I don't believe this crap. Having had time to digest, it's safe to say there are/have been issues with Bucket. But having created huge amounts of music with GnR which he must surely be happy with and proud of, having gotten fantastic reactions from live audiences and seen how we've reacted to Madagascar and his solos, it would not make sense for Axl to let him go over a 'waiting' issue. I can only imagine Axl would do anything to keep this band together now, and that Bucket could be persuaded. Unless he knows that the album probably wnt be coming out this year or something.

[Jizzo]

I hope they have a bacup band, just so axl can rant about how no one believes in him anymore and didn't think he was gonna show.

[Sino-lieS]

Pilferk!!!!

Where in the living hell did you find that kid?
fuk is that wierd! funny stuff.
