They had two people playing keyboards during the Illusion tour. What about the huge fucking band they had back then and with backup singers??? Dizzy and Teddy Zigzag on Keyboards, trumpet players, backup singers, etc. I don't think it's half as bad as that was. The synth usually isn't so bad, but like other people said, the broadcast mix sucked. I'll take a keyboard and a synth anyday over the bloated fucking band they had for a leg of the Illusion tour.

I could barely even notice keyboard effects at the Hammerstein shows. They were there, but they supplemented the songs and didn't overtake or detract. At RIR the sound feed was horrible and the keyboards were drowning out other instruments

i found
the only problem with what pitman did was that it was too loud
from what i can make out Dizzy does keyboard (and bongos) pitman does all the technical whizzy and orchestral background effects whick when mixed right sound good too loud and yes its too much like on the end of IRS now if we wanted to hear GNR as it was dig out the old boots listen to them, what is played is GNR now with the new people Pitman included and the songs have a litle bit of extra effects fucking wow so what they still sond great but have that little extra something we never used to hear and im glad of it, it refreshens the songs
that nasty mix on what we heard via Aol is not Chris's fault, is it?
Otherwise I totally agree.
the latin feel from the bongos and the baroque piano-ish sounds added to the old songs are refreshing.

yeah they fuckin' ruined SCOM.. i don't even understand why the fuck pitman is in the band
bullshit, as told a million times before,
the problem was in the mix
, not in the guys
I'm confused.? What are you trying to say, exactly?? ?
Mix aside, I understand Pittman's role in the band, but it still seems that he has an awful lot of downtime during the shows, and swaying back and forth with that keyboard looks a bit silly.? Just my opinion, of course, and I definitely like what he brings to the new material...
I mean that we heard wrong source of the sound, actually AOL fucked everything up. the people at the show heard perfect sound but in the broadcast there was just stage monitor mix.

I got that.? It was meant to be tongue-in-cheek, considering how big and bold (literally) your comment was...

Dizzy has been a waste of a paycheck since the illusion days and chris is even worse. The keys and syns make it sound like fucking bon jovi. If you're gonna have 2 of them then do songs like breakdown, civil war and estranged. Axl could utilize everyone in the band with better song selections. God knows they've had 10 yrs to get to know them.
