Love Spit Love/Psychedelic Furs

[AxlReznor]

Before GN'R, Richard Fortus and Frank Ferrer were in a band called Love Spit Love, which eventually led to them becoming members of their singer, Richard Butler's previous band - Psychedelic Furs - for their reunion tour.  Well, here are some videos...

I like a lot "Codeine" and "Pretty in Pink". It's nice to see Richard playing keyboard with his guitar. He is talented and this is not a surprise he ends-up in a famous band like Guns N' Roses. But now, he has to put his trademark in the newGNR like Slash and Izzy did in the old band. This is probably the next step, and a very difficult one. Put his "savoir-faire" and his trademark in this Guns N' Roses 2.0 and show it to the world. He has the potencial and he has the talent to do it. Go to his website and listen to his stuff, this is brillant and it prooves he can write some great guitar riffs/melodies/solos.?

He is probably the most potencialy "guitar-hero" in GN'R since Slash's departure 10 years ago.

I think Richard's great too.  I like Love Spit Love, despite Richard Butler's vocals sounding out of place in some of the heavier songs.  Change In The Weather is a great song.
Anyone else think he sounds exactly like David Bowie on Pretty In Pink?

both bands are great
the furs was a very very very good band in the new wave era.. their early albums are the best
