Hence my biggest questionmark in this being Thal.
-PEACE-
Ps. Claiming it solely based upon the poorly sounding short fragment would be plain arrogant.
You are right to be cautious. I'm not claiming it is based on the phone call, nevertheless you can't discount him because of the 'jet engine' or 'tsunami' that we heard on the radio.
Whilst I think that the guitarist doesn't need to be a huge name, he needs to have star quality, which is what an unknown or technical player may lack. This is the lead guitarist position for Guns N' Roses, after all.

If its Ron Thal (wich it would be indeed the right choice to replace Buckethead), why would Axl be so mysterious about this? I mean, it's not like people would be shocked with this almost unknown guy.
Maybe he just wants everyone to judge him based on what they see/hear at the shows. Not just run and download everything we can find and judge him on that, ya know?

I couldn't agree more. Axl wasn't going to say the name on Friday, but he was keen to open the door when the solo to Nightrain kicked in.

Ron Thal is a great guy and a great talent. He is a shredder, ok, but he is different from the rest. He is a great entertainer and is really friendly.
He would be very popular among the GNR fans.

I'd gain a hell of a lot of respect for Axl if he brought Thal in - I always thought his attack on Thal for
trying to set the record straight with his fans
was completely excessive and out of order.

what happened to "axl ruining the band with another shredder" and refusing to give the new guy a chance or "attention"?

Ron Thal is different. I don't especially want him in the band for his guitar playing, I will always prefer the Classic bluesy/Rock guitar players like the 2 RF, question of musical taste. But at least he is a great entertainer and a great guy. He plays with a lot of fun, even if his guitar playing is quite special (and dawn speed), at least he is fun.

tell me about it. his inconsistancy is mind-blowing. after spending year whining about buckethead because he was an "emotionless shredder" (any dumbfuck who listen to his solos can easily see the emotion in his playing), even after he left the group, he proceeds to embrace the person who is one of the most similar to bucket in terms of playing. now there's consistancy if i ever saw it.

I'm pretty sure Axl said "we have a new guy"
