Who wants Brain out?

[the dirt]

The way Brain butchers YCBM makes me shudder.

He is good on teh new songs and most of the old stuff, but YCBM isn't that hard and he alwasy fucks it up

I hate the way he did it too.

[Poof!]

I'm not overly impressed with Brain, but Josh Freese's shoes are big shoes to fill. I still would've wanted Josh to be the drummer for GN'R. But Brain is it and since he's gonna help bring CD to the masses, I say more power to him.

I find it amusing that you say this. What has any GNR fan heard of Freese other than a wishy washy OMG off of End Of Days?

I am not sure what in my post you find amusing. Read it again, please, and revise your statement. It doesn't talk about GN'R recordings, I am refering to talent as a drummer.

As far as most people are concerned Freese was never really in GNR for him to have made a mark, or footprint for that matter with his giant shoes. I guess Casper would be hard to replace in GNR as well.

I do not care to explain my point again. Just read my posts till you understand them.

More than once, man, more. I kind of hope it was intentional in order to put a fresh spin on an old song, but you never know.

In my opinion hes suck, if Axl is looking to get good musicians he needs to get a better drumer. i just want to hear a solo

You're an idiot!

Wow. ?The *last* thing I want right now is for Brain, or any of the current line up, to change. ?Right when a new tour is starting and the album release might be coming, let's start hoping the lineup changes!!! ?Sorry, no way. ?The Hammerstein shows have proved that the chemistry, talent, and, most importantly - the fun - is there, and that - at long last - they consider themselves and act like a real band that enjoy working together. ?Brain's a phenominal drummer, and ?an integral part of GnR.

So, to answer the thread question...not me.

Over my head there, eh? ?

Big shoes to fill is a common thing to say about replacing a member of a band that put his stamp on the music. That's what I'm saying.

You hold the opinion that he was the most talented. Let's say he was a hired gun for one second. You really think Brain would walk into try out a couple months later and think to himself "Gee, that Freese, how am I ever gonna fill his shoes"?

What a senseless, and pointless thread.

Brain is hands down the best drummer Gn'R has ever been graced with...I mean the guy even plays the old shit like it's absolutely nothing to him.

Sebastian said it perfectly when he said: "Hey Axl, where the fuck was this guy when you hired Matt?"

no hes not... go get your self a metronome and a recording of him check it.. hes not...

like dirt said maybe he wants to change up the intro to YCBM, .. it could be due to anything.. his drum kit, playing style or the way he feels... he fucked it up one time and you know what time that was... but he is not off time... the dude is tight..

i think the SCOM from the Big Daddy credits had the new GNR (then at the time) do the 2nd half of the solo up to the end. And i believe josh freese was the drummer.

[leesixxrose]

Whatever dude.

nice comeback... you said hes off time... no hes not.. name any other song that doesnt sound like the way it was played originaly....

You could be right on that. That song is not on the soundtrack though.

[lennonisgod]

Brain is the best drummer they have EVER had... besides Freese and that doesnt count...

Amen to that.  Freese would always be good to bring back.  I like Brain a lot though.  He is a great drummer and doesn't need a fucking ten minute solo before You Could Be Mine to prove that he is.  Fuck drum solos.  Fuck them hard.

Why is that so amusing??  Just because we have only heard him do one GNR song, doesn't mean we don't know he's one of the top drummers in the world.  HMMMMMMMM... How many fucking bands has he played with??  How many sessions in the studio has he done???  I think he has more studio sessions than any other drummer in the world.  And don't say he's just a good session drummer.  I saw APC last year and I didn't watch the rest of the band at all, just Freese.  He's the best drummer I have ever seen in person.  And he had a broken foot to top it off.  Brain is great though and I'm happy he's here.

I named one.  Look at my original post.


Jesus, I'm so sick of how NOBODY on this board can have a legitimate discussion about the band.


You don't have to sackride everything about the band/songs.


Its okay to have differing opinions


And btw, many people can admit that he butchers YCBM.

[AxlsMainMan]

Where does he butcher YCBM?

I thought he nailed it Friday...
