New Gn'R Guitarist Found?

[ppbebe]

  Ay, I never say never on both fronts. I say
  Yay, new album is definitely surfacing soon as it?s said.
  Naa, BH come back is not surfacing, as long as there?re Nesquicks saying noes.
Bully for ya Nesquick! Bullies!

If thal is hired for the upcoming tour then I have a good outlook, it at least shows that something is being done.. Until anything is final, and what he will be doing for the band there is nothing much to say..

It would be the dumbest thing if he was hired 6 months later (or whoever else) to do bh's parts which could have been done months ago.. I definetly think it's for touring..

Close and delete - until factual info comes out - It seems like  we are scrambling for news

[Shotgun]

maybe the gnr camp wanted the Buckethead parts redone and they need a replace for him.
But for some reason they decided not to do and axl need now only a guitarist for the tour or maybe for some rehearsels.

I had read that chris brought, or suggested him to the group, just making sure this is true?? If it is then has thal memntioned ever speaking to axl, or playing for him? I just want to see if it was only suggested by chris and that axl is not even in the picture

thanks

[Mateoson]

From what I've read he has yet to speak to axl, which would sound ridiculous if it was any other band. But hey, this is GNR.

And yes this whole thing is getting blown out of proportion.... but we haven't hear shit from anyone for a while. WTF!!!!! I think axl went back into hybernation.

OCT 10 - hey all, quick update.  Scoring some music for a new TV show, laying guest spots on the new Freak Kitchen and Guthrie Govan CDs.

The Vigier limited edition Bumblefoot Swiss Cheese guitars will be available soon. There are only 10 of them, they will be auctioned, the profits will go to Multiple Sclerosis research.  More info soon      Regarding any bands I might have been hooking up with, I've declined. (source bumblefoot.com)

Looks as though the search continues.....

I seriously doubt if this guy was ever asked to join GN'R.  A nobody guitarist like him would jump at the chance of getting a huge payday from GN'R.

A nobody guitarist like him

If ignorance is bliss, why aren't you jumping up and down with joy?

Shit. How many other opportunities they will fuck up? It's really sad how this whole thing happened. I wish lucky to Ron and, for God's sake, to GNR's search for Bucket's replacement. 

[oneway23]

At this point, it'd be wise to wind down the replacement search...This is not quantum physics....There are bands who do not reproduce overdubs live due to a lack of 3 guitars...Hell, some bands even employ ghost players who stand stage-side, obscured from the audience sightlines, who replicate album parts...they're not hiring a CIA director...It's much more imperative at this point that they at least get out there....

I just read today that they reserrected Jimmy Page to play in GNR.

Jimmy Page is still alive einstein.

I just read that Bumblefoot had to turn down the job as being "someone to lay down tracks in the studio."  Looks like this guy is OUT of the picture for good.  The chances for a Buckethead return are looking better and better.

Guess the album still isnt finished as was thought. geez.

Yeah, as if they?d kept contact with Bumblefoot since July, geez.

Amen to Slipdisc n MeanBone, I can see him jumping up and down in ecstasy.

A yet to be known super gifted guitarist is an Ideal. Especially for a new deal of GNR which already enjoys a big name. A fresh n challenging guy is the best from every aspect. But the hardest to be found.

Oh well, anyhow this Bumbling occurrence told us GNR is/was on the right truck.

lets's pray for it. well, i don't believe in god but what a fuck up it would be if he is there above us and that he could have helped....amen!

[Saul]

I do .. his name? Buckethead. 

[grog mug]

Bring that chicken loving freak back!  I miss seeing him with GN'R already.  Hell I miss seeing GN'R at all.
