How important was Buckethead to the future and new sound of GNR??

[younggunner]

that guy doesn't fit in Guns N' Roses and that's all.

says who? he fits just fine to me. In fact he puts them on an even higher scale.

but shredding is not what I think GN'R is about...

You know nothing about Buckethead then

Don't forget Fortus + Finck made 75% of the job, most of the time BH did nothing onstage, he was just standing for shredding during 45 sec or 1 mn on 5, 6, or 7 minutes songs and that's it

Maybe because he wasnt needed as much on the old material. If your gonna judge him on old gnr your an idiot. If Bucket remains on the album I think your going to have a completely different opinion of him....

Said it before, without Bucket, they're an average band...Bucket gies them something unique and puts them over the top in terms of opening up diverse musical stylings...Really sad to see him depart...his albums since have been really enjoyable though

is "the blues" old material? because he doesn't even play on that one his guitar is off.
I think BH made the new GN'R turn into a worldwide joke. His interview with kurt loder in 2002 was painfull. Is he a 12 years old boy? He seems extremely imature. I think someone should tell him we don't live in a cartoon. What a shame He was for the Guns N' Roses name?

actually i think he gave them some more credibility and something to offset the slash factor. Extremes are the way to go....

His interview with kurt loder in 2002 was painfull to watch

What a shame He is for the Guns N' Roses name

Here's a person telling people how immature buckethead is when he's discounting someone based upon appearance alone.  I'm sure buckethead is mature enough to know that immature is spelled with 2 M's...is that petty enough?

[Pandora]

Nesquick is at it again    Don't forget to add that Robin is a goth with an indus sound who doesn't fit in the band either 

Anyway, this is getting moved to the Ex-Gunners section...

No I talked about his guitar playing also, about shredding instead of playing.

I'm among these persons who think that everything is important and should be taken into consideration. and the look is a criteria among several ones. If Britney Spears was fat and ugly, do you really think she would have sold over 50 million records worldwide? come on...
The FIRST thing that had been discussed by the media and most of people after the VMA 2002 was "Axl is fat now". This is the way it works. I never said I agreed with that, but this is the way it works.

[ppbebe]

Then jump on the bandwagon of Britney Spear. That?s so rock n? roll for ya.

[SodatopsPhalen]

he doesnt play on the blues?

[nesquick]

no he doesn't.

[SodatopsPhalen]
