[babydolls]

enough with the plaintive wailings for Bucket - HE LEFT.  deal with it.

enough with the plaintive wailings for Bucket - HE LEFT.? deal with it.

It does get repetative with people saying "if Buckethead came back and . . . ."

He isn't coming back! Get used to it instead of keep going on about it. Not everyone's priority is going to be being in Guns N Roses, he's probably enjoying his own solo work then he is with GnR, he did quit for a reason.

[WARose]

i really hope the website gets updated and we`ll get "new info" as richard said.

i`m waiting for this tour to end, because august will become a quite interesting month i guess

[SADIS]

Myself, GnR, Merk, and Cliff Richard are all going on a summer holiday. Izzy might come too, but you know him, Izzy does what Izzy does.

  I thought it was funny. Especially including Cliff Richard.

I think there's gonna be some big announcements in the next few months. New single/album and USA tour.

Bumble can't play Buckets solos and has no charisma. 

Are you joking?

I was always slightly embarased when explaining to my friends that gnr consisted of an idiot with a KFC bucket on his head.

I think Bumble is awesome. He has amazing stage presences and I love his guitar style. He can play fast n stuff but he doesnt over play which is what I thought buckethead did.

Rons great, looks like ur average guitar dood but he can play awesome and he puts 100% into every song.

during August Tommy is gigging with Soul Asylum i thought and I think Dizzy is touring Hookers N Blow..please correct me if I'm wrong

[tHeElEcTrIcSiNtAr]

Dizzy's only doing 12 dates at the end of August I believe.
I dont know about Tommy though.

Bumble can't play Buckets solos and has no charisma. Axl really needs to find somebody else to help launch this album. The general public is not going to love Bumble just because he answers e-mails. The best scenario would be for Bucket to come back or for Izzy to rejoin. The band would be much better off with Richard playing lead, as he has both style and charisma.

Enough with that BS.

The guy is a freak show good riddance

[Neemo]

here is the thing i was talking about

TOMMY STINSON HELPS

Ex-Replacements bassist Tommy Stinson helped out on singing and bass on a few tracks and filled in on bass at club dates after Mueller died.

Currently touring Europe with Guns N? Roses, Stinson is expected to rejoin Soul Asylum this summer. Meanwhile, the band is touring with bassist John Fields, who also played on ?The Silver Lining.

basically from what has been said, Axl is expected to finalize the album tracklisting and send it for mastering and pressing...the rest of the dudes will prolly go home and chill until the KROQ gig

[Mattattack]

Bumble is going to be seen as a fucking joke when they tour North America. I can't wait to see a GnR video with a guy playing a foot guitar.

cuz the KFC bucket was so awe inspiring...who cares about the fucking guitar .... it ain't no different then the flying V with KFC stripes and the Nunchuck demo...give it a rest he plays it for like 2 minutes in the whole show

What you say is a non-sense. So we will have: Buckethead, Fortus, Finck, and Izzy on guitar....4 guitar players...among them 3 Lead players...RIIIIIGHT!
What you said is a non-sense. Do you want also 2 drummers, 10 keyboards and 3 bass players?

More seriously, Buckethead returned to his solo carreer and I hope he will stay far far faaaaaar away from Guns N' Roses until the judgement day happens. To sum-up: staying away forever and ever.
Bumblefoot, contrary to Buckethead, is an honnest guy. The problem in this band is not Buckethead or Bumblefoot, it's just the 3 guitar players thing. It can't work in the long term simply because the GN'R music does NOT require 3 guitar players. It's as simple as that.

No Buckethead, no Bumblefoot, no 3rd guitar player. Whoever he/she is. Stick with two.

yeah, cause you know so much better than axl what guns n' roses needs, right?
please...

[Neemo]

I doubt very much that Izzy will rejoin GnR...he's just touring Europe and having fun with an old friend

This will prolly be the lineup in the fall as well...just my opinion

when they switch to more of a new setlist I think it'll become apparent why they need 3 Axemen instead of 2

take what you can get or back out, cuz each individual is never gonna get exactly what he or she wants, nobody's ever gonna be better than the origanals, but we have all been given a second chance to hear some GNR, you can either roll with it and enjoy it for what it is, or you can squabble for ever and it isn't gonna change a thing,  We all know by now Axl does what Axl wants, cause he can, he is gonna provide music and band members that he thinks deliver the goods the way he likes.  Do you see him offering a website for everyones opinions to be shared about what band members should be hired and fired or how many there should be, definately not.

Well, I don't know for the band - but for myself, I get to get back to the US and enjoy traffic jams, rude drivers, and oh ... New York.

Just my guess, but it's probably all finished being recorded.   Whoever it may be, is hopefully working on it now, doing mixing, production, or whatever they do once it has been recorded.   God I hope we get some good news on this in August.

[1badapple]

they'll probably be listening to the several different mixes of the new material, deciding which ones to use. i'd imagine these next couple of months will be spent finalizing all the details regarding the big release.
