Bucket not touring with Brain anymore?

[chramos]

Seeing the new Bucket dates, it seems Brain is not with him anymore.

So Tommy was right?!  (if so it will be the first time a band member says something that really happened)

Peace

That is, if Tommy really said that. And it wouldn't be the first time, but I see you're joking.

Brain toured with Bucket on his Giant Robot tour thru the USA - June to July.  At the end of the tour, they played a show in Japan but Brain did not go.

They are both touring together with Col. Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains at the end of the month.

Bucket is out on the road touring, and Brain is... Brain is not touring, Brain will have to wait to tour, Brain could have a long wait on his hands if GN'Rs touring history is anything to go by 

Check out the FREE Buckethead track for download on his site. It's pretty ok. Although why there is a charge to download the whole live gig is a joke. It should be FREE

Brain will be touring with Tom Waits in November in Europe, that's all I know

It seems that there really is no real GN'R anymore. Simply a lead singer a bunch of musicians who work with all manner of other people. Didn't Meat Loaf operate like this?

Legally, this band is not like the old lineup where they all had an equal say in what went down.  Creatively, this seems to very much be a band, as Tommy has said countless times that everyone in the band was involved in the songwriting process.

IMO, the fact that the band members work with artists from across the music spectrum during their down time is not a bad thing at all.  If anything, it only broadens the range of influences that can be brought into the GN'R songwriting process.

Just noticing this?

[madagas]

Brain will be on the C2B3 tour through Nov 7th...at least he better because I'm going to the Atlanta show.

[damnthehaters]

I guess for those people who didn't believe me when I said I talked to Tommy and he told me that Brain was leaving Bucket will believe me now.? I forgive you, there are a lot of rumors that fly around here.

[Dr. Blutarsky]

Maybe Bucket is leaving that band now.

Now dont be like that bro, they have money n' so does the old band, they dont have to be cramped into some shit hole house in L.A. together to be a real band, they'r just keepin' buisy mate.

just like Ali said, this band's gotta be the most creative band around, the old line up ended this way too, it's all about the money.

A more positive way to see it is that perhaps Axl is a thoughtful guy; he knows he's taking forever to get his stuff done and so rather than make the rest of the guys sit around and wait on him, he encourages them to go out and do their own thing.?

Brain also has dates scheduled with Tom Waits in Vancouver and Europe and likely more West Coast dates will be announced during the gap in C2B3's touring schedule...

Regarding the other members doing shows outside of GNR:

Its a win win situation. THey keep busy while they are waiting for GNR to finish CD.

They stay fresh so when it is time to tour again with GNR.

More experience playing with different people brings more creative input for GNR.

jeez peeps. you seem to have selected reading comprehension. It was clearly stated several times that bucket and brain will be touring together thru november 7th. It is still has not been demonstrated that bucket won't tour with gnr.

[damnthehaters]

I could care less that Bucket is playing with Brain through November.  My point, and Tommy's point was that he is "leaving Bucket", exact words from Tommy.  When that may be?  I don't know, but he is going to eventually leave.

he is not going to leave. the chances are better that Brain leaves GNR. just visit c2b3.com/bios and read what Brain told about his time with GNR especially about "Sweat Child of Mine". not really nice for a GNR drummer to talk like that....
