Will anyone else be disappointed if there is no new guitarist at the New Shows?

I keep thinking how Lynyrd Skynyrd had 3 lead guitars and it was so powerful live. I think they were the first  band to do that, and it made them special. I would  like to see GNR do it also because they need 3 to fill the shoes of 1 Slash.

I disagree with needed 3 to fill Slash's shoes, but I guess it'd be cool overall to have 3. I just can't see them needing it though.

Well,

Judging from what Axl said tonight about there being a third guitar player, it looks like I was ahead of the curve on this board in realizing that Finck/Fortus were not sufficient to go it alone. Although Axl wouldn't tell who it was, it is safe to say whoever it is is most likely the virtuoso type needed to pull off some of Guns strongest material, much like Buckethead was brought in to do.

What did I miss? Where did Axl say something tonight about a third guiatarist?

Nevermind! I'm hip the whole Eddie Trunk thing now. I guess this thread isn't needed anymore!

I don't see what the big deal is about if a 3rd guitarist player is at the new shows or not. After hearing what Axl said, last night I think we know their would be one and I'm sure he will be at the NYC shows. I will only be disappointed if they don't show up and I don't see that happen.

I think we're looking at this 2 vs. 3 guitarist thing all wrong. It's not about filling Slash's shoes or who is capable and who isn't. It's about a vision and Axl doing what he feels will best accomplish that vision. If he feels he needs three guitarists then so be it. To me that's cool becuase there are all kinds of overdubs on every GnR album, and if you can have an extra guy there to fill it out then go for it.
