Well, I've always disliked Sorum anyway, so a pic of him looking like the douche he is never fails to bring a smile to my face

So true. In the 80's, big hair was cool. I mean, when GnR first started, Axl had his hair all teased up & make-up on. Looks pretty strange now. And there was a picture of Duff (very early GnR promo pic) where he was in some fluffed up punk hair and a tie.
And to call Matt a douche is unfair. Just because he's not Steven. He was in GnR longer than Steven, probably played more live shows, and recorded more with them. Everyone is different in their opinions, I know, but I consider him to be THE drummer for GnR (earlier GnR). Much better than Steven.

Nope. Of course I can only speak for myself, but I don't hold Steven in a very high regard either; Matt replacing Steven isn't the reason I dislike the guy. Through interviews etc. I know Matt pretty much as well as anyone who doesn't actually know him personally, and based on everything I've got from him throughout the years, I've formed an opinion. He seems to be a bit of a dork.
By the way, has everyone heard that "Matt Sorum Beating a Dead Horse" -mp3? If not, download here:
http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/ktklahti/matt_sorum_beating_a_dead_horse.mp3
It's pretty funny, shows him using the same fill on almost all the songs on the UYI-albums.

Damn, am I the only one that likes Sorum's drumming? If he sucks so bad, without any feel, why would Slash and co. want him to be their drummer?

No, you are not the only one.? I love Sorum, as well.? He's a great drummer, IMO.? So what if he's a dork?? A lot of people could be described as that.? ?Well, as far as some of his personal statements and attitudes, he irritates me, because he does seem to have that "rock star" mentality of sex and groupies.? But, he's a great drummer, so I can separate that out of it.? ?

Yep, after hearing that it's hard to listen to the UYI albums again and not pay attention to it...

The point is he's using the fills on many different songs.

actually, Matt was only in GNR longer on a very technical standpoint. Steven was in GNR from 1985-1990 and played consistently during the first four years. Matt may have been employed by the band until 1997, but the band was inactive from July 1993 on (notwithstanding one cover song they recorded). So Steven actually played for longer and more than likely more live shows than Sorum. And since Steven actually recorded rough demos of the UYI songs, Steven also recorded more with GNR. Matt Sorum is okay but he wasn't much more than a touring drummer.
anywho, this thread is about his ridiculous hair.

Okay, old-ass thread. But it's such a golden-oldie. I hope others that missed it the first time around can enjoy it.
It's just too fucking funny!
On a different note, I wonder if Tori and Matt ever talk? Since she just released a new album (one of her best) and VR's new album is out soon, I wonder if they would tour together.

Thanks for posting that photo, I hadn't seen it before and on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday, I could do with a laugh. In fact, the "what the...?!" factor of it is probably up there with the photos of his wedding to Kai Benson.
