Dave kushner, good bad or just ugly?

Dont know if this topics been up before but i thought i'd give it a try.
Dave Kushner, Is he good for velvet or simply some guy the nedd just to stand behind Slash and his solos?
I believe Dave is really good, and i think he contributes to the band, It's not easy beeing arround all time legends.
Post your thoughts on it, or just tell me it's a shitty subject.

Seems to be a very nice guy and a great guitar player, just, it seems to me he lacks the personality/charisma of a rock star or at least the rest of the band.
Physically, he looks like any other guy down the street that nobody would recognize.

Precisly, he might be a bit avarage, but then again who isn't in comparance to slash n' the others, and ofcourse it's never easy playing rythm guitar.

Dave is great.. He has plenty of talent and has played with some good bands... They have known eachother for years too. Remember the Wasted Youth shirt Slash had in The Ritz show?? I believe that was Dave's band. Anyway musically I think he contributed alot to Contraband and VR's sound... He uses alot of effects and pedals that help the band sound fresh.. Slash doesn't really mess with that stuff...

I really, really dislike the pedals and effects Dave brought to Contraband. Maybe it is time to bring Izzy Stradlin into the band. I know Scott supposedly wasnt comfortable with the riffs Izzy came up with because it was too GNR, but Daves playing isnt exactly earth shattering either..its much worse. But VR should try to stay away from the modern sound Dave is going for. After 3 weeks i got tired of it.

Just believe it, he did say so, atleast he said something like it's "too classic rock for him". No one wants to go thru 1000345 interviews.

Going back to topic. Dave is great, I like his style and I think that he fits perfect in Velvet Revolver.

I've seen VR Twice, and Dave was really all over the place, It almost looked like he was going to jump in the crowd and go for a crowd surf or something ?
