The Third Guitarist Question (should Buckethead rejoin or maybe even Slash?)

[Saul]

until they take the stage without bucket , i'll hold out on hopes he will return. If he doesnt GNR will be axl and the other guys to me. Besides Axl the only people that grab any of my attention is Brain and Fortus.

I'm sorry if that offends anyone but thats just how I feel , and I'm not saying finck and fortus wont lay down kickass solo's in the studio .. no , I just cant take to robin one bit. I flinch everytime he appears on the screen on the 2002 tour bootlegs.

I think BH will be in GNR when saul finally takes to Robin.

The third guitarist has already been announced! It's Brown Sugar, the guy who used to play for the Gravel Pit Campers.

Trust me. I'm an insider...

Is this brown suger guy, BOB SUTHERBY, a flamenco guitarist?
Never heard of him but I think GNR already has a guitarist nimble enough to play flamenco.
I trust you but I don't trust an insider.

[dirtyballs]

i hope they do not get this wanker back !!!

[conny]

What if they get Bucket back, keep Fortus on rhythm and let Finck play....hm.....tambourine? 

 

[Thorazine Shuffle]

I am seeing Bucket in March. I will do my best to ask the man if leaves the venue and greets fans again.

It would be nice to have a reconciliation.

Yea I'm seeing him in Myrtle Beach in March as well.

[Locomotive98]

It has to be Slash - who else could it be? Id bet my left nut its Mr Hudson on the tour - without a doubt....

[killingvector]

I cannot see slash rehearsing songs for Chinese Democracy. Considering that he is part of an established platinum selling rock band already, why go back and be an employee of Axl Rose?

Axl said it himself that he hasn't spoken to Slash in ten years; why in the last two weeks would a major earth moving reconciliation occur?

[Smoking Guns]

Mr. Vector, what in the last two weeks has been a reaction to a plausible event?  Nothing at all.  So, its almost like, what will we hear next?  What about the Haflin rumor?  What about Slash leaking the story about March....It is so weird.  I doubt it will happen, but, nothing will suprise me at this point.

[WhosGilby?]

If they cancelled Rio in 04 because Buckethead quit wouldnt it maen now that there doin it this year that they
 now have another guitarist

I am sorry but the whole Slash deal is pretty far fetched. I would love it as much as the next guy, but I find it hard to swallow because there is no mention of Duff and/or Izzy, & Sorum. I don't know about the others but Duff would have to be a package deal w/ Slash. There is no way Slash comes on board and Duff doesn't. Slash would not shit on Duff and that matter VR unless it was a full blown reunion w/ all members minus Adler

SLASH SLASH SLASH SLASH

Why not?  Time to move on.  SLASH SLASH SLASH.  Bet the farm on it.

[Hoosier]

the peeps and admins at Angelo.com (batios official site) all say its BS about him being in the band. id say thats the best info we have right now

Longshot at best. I'm not ruling it out, but a return would knock me on my ass.

[WeHeldTogether]

Imagine this- Guns N' Roses being announced on stage for one of the festivals they're playing later this year- and Slash running out on stage with them?  Wouldn't that be the best surprise ever?

[Hoosier]

wonder what marty friedman is doing these days??   

[GunnerRose]

If there is an interest in selling this band? Selling more seats...Selling more shirts....albums....whatever else...
We will see SLASH......
He may not be the best....but he is the most popular.
VR without Slash....is a pile of shit band.

If they are interested in the best sound...then its some dude ...who has a website and travels around to Mall impressing teens with his fast hands.

[Smoking Guns]

No, Slash would be the best sound.  He is not the best guitarist technically, but he is the best guitarist for GNR.  Period.  He is just so much more interesting then Bucket and even Zakk for that matter, even though Zakk is the better player.

[-Jack-]

Not to be a downer... but Slash ain't coming back.

People who are convinced he is are just not lookin at the facts...

[SOLGER]

As much as Id love to see Duff and Slash back..it would be a disaster...First of all they would feel SUPERIOR to pittman,fortus and brain...wich I think will cause some trouble...not to mention Dizzy?s discomfort..and right now I think Axl wants this guys happy.
