It's Official: Buckethead Out -MTV

[Hammy]

Jesus fucking christ, i cant believe this still hasnt been confirmed by GNR yet, absolutely ridiculous!

Id prefer it if it was confirmed rather than just an MTV article. At least that way we know and can speculate on who will replace the chicken coop beast.

Another Sad week in GNR history......















......AGAIN!

I know he's turned down Axl before but he's worth a try.........Brian May

[August 18th]

There's nothing that Axl can do now that will redeam himself after letting this happen...at least in my eyes as a fan. ?I liked the old band quite a bit at the time and saw them live 3 times and bought all the albums, singles, t-shirt, and various other merchandise. ?I absolutely loved the new band and consider myself fortunate enough to see them perform on the defunct "World Tour" in 2002 and waited with baited breath with an open wallet to purchase the new material. ?But this is the last straw. ?I don't blame Buckethead. ?I don't blame Geffen. ?I blame my former-hero 100%. ?This is Axl's doing. ?Calling him an asshole would be an insult to other assholes. ?Calling him a prick would be an insult to other pricks. ?Calling him a retard would be an insult to other retards. ?It no longer saddens me to admit this, but he's just a useless, worthless, idiotic, dork.

I don't care how good the reviews are if and when Chinese Democracy comes out. ?I don't care how much anticipation is behind any future GNR shows. ?As my own,personal, silent protest I plan on NOT purchasing CD, NOT going to any future GNR shows, I WILL be attending all the Velvet Revolver shows I can, I WILL be going to Lollapalooza this summer if Robin Finck is back with NIN, ?I WILL be buying "Greatest Hits", The Velvet Revolver albums, all of Buckethead's solo albums, and anything and everything else from any former GNR band-members.

Fuck you, Axl. ?You're a worthless piece of shit for letting this and all of the additional immenant resignations from happening.

too bad you'll feel bad about bashing your former hero like this when you'll be on his nuts again like crazy once cd drops.
that's the day i will listen to great music with a good conscience, laughing at all the idiots eating their own words.

Buckethead's departure was yet another blow to GnR fans. BTW, didn't Axl's statement say that there would be a release date in a few months? What are we up to now? 14, 15 months?

My new heroes are the civil attorneys who will force the release of CD in a few years time.  All hail Thomas Mesereau.
